Professional Dog Obedience Training at Its Best

Serving Virginia, the Mid-Atlantic and East Coast
The secret to true companionship, and effective family and home protection, is an investment in your dog's personalized training. Whether for obedience, security & protection, companionship or problem resolution, the Auburn Leach K-9 Academy can help you and your best friend solve a host of problems.

Auburn Leach K9 works with all canine breeds (including the "bully" breeds) from puppy to adult.  Our staff is experienced in both basic and advanced training methods, using "praise" with verbal, hand and leash commands.  No food or fear is incorporated into our training!

We are a U.S.D.A. inspected and approved facility located on a 7-acre campus in rural Stuarts Draft, VA in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley.  With both indoor and outdoor training facilities, our campus is open year-round in all weather.

We also work with people!  You and your family will also be personally instructed on how to handle your newly trained pet and how to reinforce good behavior patterns.

It's like getting 2 programs in 1 with
Basic and Advanced Skills Training combined!

  • Basic Obedience
  • Heel
  • Sit
  • Stay
  • Down
  • Come
  • Attention Span
  • Focus
  • Manners

  • Problem Resolution
  • Aggression
  • Socialization
  • Anti-Social Behavior
  • Agility
  • Complex Skills

All problem resolution begins with a personal, hands-on, one-to-one examination by Auburn Leach, USDTA Registered Trainer.  Auburn brings more than 20 years of canine training experience to American K9 Academy.
