In-Person Evaluations
We don't just train dogs, we train owners. Clear communication, real-world results, and a plan built around your dog.
Nick's team will reach out shortly to schedule your evaluation.
A well-trained dog doesn't happen by accident. Real results come from clear communication, consistency, and a plan built around your dog, plus the tools to keep it going at home.
Customized programs based on your dog's personality, temperament, history, and your specific goals, not a one-size-fits-all script.
One of the biggest reasons training fails is because owners aren't given the tools. We teach you how to communicate, handle distractions, and maintain progress long-term.
Dogs live in homes, parks, and stores, not a facility. We train in real environments so your dog stays focused and responsive anywhere.
Whether you're raising a puppy, want hands-on coaching, or need serious behavior help, there's a program built for it.
A two-week board and train for puppies six months and under. Socialization, confidence building, potty and crate training, plus foundational obedience, so you prevent problems before they start.
Work directly with a professional trainer while learning to communicate effectively with your dog. Customized to your goals and schedule.
A 3-month program for dogs of any age and any training goal, from obedience to off-leash reliability to reactivity. A mix of board and train time and private lessons, with you involved every step of the way.
A board and train program where we identify and explain your dog's triggers, then teach the correct response so you can manage unwanted behaviors with confidence.
Nick's passion for dog training began early, watching his father work with hunting dogs. That interest grew into professional education, hands-on mentorships, and advanced study in canine behavior and development.
He spent five years in the veterinary field, and has worked with everything from family companions to police K9s and therapy dogs serving local fire departments. Today he helps owners of every breed overcome challenges from basic obedience to complex behavioral issues.
Real results from real families around Lincoln, CA.
"My wife and I had an all round fantastic experience with Nick, more importantly so did our dog. Nick has enabled us to be better dog owners and our pup has responded brilliantly. Nick was professional."
"Doing private lessons with Nick at Consistent K9 was the best decision I made for my crazy goldendoodle. Nick was extremely helpful in teaching me what I specifically asked to work on."
"My boyfriend and I took our German Shepherd and black lab for training and they have made a complete turnaround! We did private classes and it was great to get that one on one."
"I can not thank Nick, Marc, Vienna, and the whole Consistent K9 family enough. As first time dog owners we were struggling to co exist with our Oslo. It wasn't his fault, we just didn't know anything."
"Nick knows dogs. He gets them. We have a lab mix puppy (Cooper) and were having a tough time with his puppy behaviors. We decided to do a board and train with Nick."
"My dog, Jett a Catahoula mix and I completed 6 obedience classes with Nick and I was very impressed how Jett improved over those 6 courses. This was one on one training for an hour each session."
"We recently completed training sessions with Consistent K9 with our 1+ year old Cane Corso."
"Nick is a kind and intuitive trainer. We knew we needed training as an Aussie owner. Nick brought additional dogs to simulate real life situations. Very professional and patient."
Every dog is different, which is why we start with a personalized evaluation. We'll discuss your goals, assess your dog, and recommend the right program.
