Dogs With Ties

“We’ve been working with Tessa at Dogs with Ties for about 8 months and have seen remarkable changes in our dog Mika. Mika is an energetic rescue dog, who was anxious around other dogs, would drag us by the leash, and was unable to pay attention to us whenever anything else was more interesting (which meant whenever we were out of the house!)Tessa helped us form a stronger connection so that Mika looks to us for cues on what to do, and this has helped alleviate her anxiety and reactivity. I appreciate that Tessa respects our preferences about which tools and techniques to use, and always helps us find solutions that work for us. Mika’s leash walking and recall have improved immensely, and training (which used to be frustrating) has become more fun and playful. Amazingly, she’s now able to calmly rest in a down stay around other dogs, so we can enjoy taking her out in many more situations.We have used Tessa for private training, drop-in care and long-term house & dog sitting. I trust and recommend her!”

“Jake is great at teaching both the dog and the owner! He is patient with your questions and explains everything he’s doing as he trains. He also makes himself available to his clients when they need a question answered.”

“We’ve been with Akina K9 for over a year now and wanted to take the time to thoughtfully share our experience with Rich and his team.

Before meeting Akina K9, I thought I understood what it meant to be a dog owner. I loved my dogs deeply, but when it came to training, my knowledge was limited to the basics: sit, down, go home, and come. There wasn’t much structure or true obedience. Looking back at our two dogs of 10 years, I now realize I could have given them an even better quality of life—if only I had understood what real training meant.

Fast forward five years, we decided to bring a larger breed into our family. This time, we agreed that proper training would not only make our lives easier but also give our dog the best life possible.

Throughout our journey, Rich has been incredibly supportive—always available whenever we needed guidance. He’s patient, understanding, and knows exactly when to step in and help redirect us when we’re struggling.

Now, more than a year later, we’re still training with Akina K9—and plan to continue. The transformation in our household has been amazing. Our dog is thriving, confident, and his recall improves every single day.

We can’t thank Rich and Akina K9 enough for the positive impact they’ve made in our lives. If you’re looking for real, lasting results and a stronger bond with your dog, this is the team you want by your side.”
