Zuko - The Tough Guy. Reactive/Aggressive Dog Turned IGP dog.
Akin and ABC Training Kennels have changed the game for me and my Belgian Malinois Puppy Zuko. From the beginning when I got him he had a problem being corrected. Lashing out at me anytime I would try to correct his behavior. I tried to get creative researching but many of the methods I found were not effective. As he got closer to 6 months it just continued to get worse which is why I looked to find a trainer who could help me. Akin has gone above and beyond for what I thought could be possible for the relationship between me and my dog. Our relationship is better than I could have imagined and I do not get anxious working with him anymore. Akin has allowed me to give Zuko the freedoms I always wanted to give him including off leash walking(with an ecollar) almost anywhere very reliably. I look forward to training now as I do not fear he will lash out and bite me for correcting him. I am so glad I came to him as I know if I had decided to give up he would have been put down at a shelter. I could not have done it without him and HIGHLY recommend Akin to anyone needed any kind of training with their dog.

Gustav - The Gentleman. Foundation Obedience Training Option.
Akin was recommended to us when we were desperate for help with our dog's reactivity and for assistance in helping him adjust to a baby in our extended family. Akin was very sensitive to our dog's needs and temperament, and was able to customize his training program to our dog's specific issues. He understood that our dog is a member of our family, and made the training sessions work for all of us with his patience and calm demeanor. Our dog is doing so much better since working with Akin. It is still a work in progress, but we are so happy to have gotten to the point where we are able to take walks in public and have him behave when he sees other dogs, and that he has been able to coexist with his young human relative at several family gatherings. We are very grateful for our work with Akin!

Mabel - The Princess. Foundation Obedience Training Option.
We learned about Akin from a trainer at Companion Dog Club. At the time, we had an energetic 6 month old Bernese Mountain Dog puppy. She jumped up on people when greeting them, refused to do a “down” or lengthy sit, and her greetings often included some puppy biting. We have 5 grandchildren 4 years old and younger who would be coming for the holidays so we needed to do something quickly.
Akin was very responsive and scheduled training for us within days. After the first in-house session, we were very pleased by the progress our puppy made. Although we have had dogs in our household for over 30 years, the training Akin provided was above and beyond anything we had experienced previously.Subsequent sessions reinforced earlier training and added additional skills and techniques to support our puppy's learning. And ours as well! Akin is an excellent communicator and a great listener. Furthermore, he was always very punctual and responsive. We have nothing but the highest recommendations for his services. Working with Akin was a great experience for us and for our puppy.

Dynamic Duo. Two Week Board and Train and Foundation Obedience Training Option.

I would highly recommend ABC Training Kennels if you are looking for real change and lasting results in your dogs behaviors. We have two Greater Swiss Mountains Dogs, and even though Swissies are a notoriously stubborn breed, Akin was able to work wonders with them! We did a Board and Train with our new puppy - Macon, and even though dropping her off was hard the progress reports made it so much better! She came back well trained and excited to keep training at home. Our older dog - Bean, has some health concerns and some long term bad habits, but Akin was able to come to training in the home with us and her and I was shocked how quickly she adjusted! We continue working with them at home using the tools Akin taught us and now these loving, large girls are able to be enjoyed without being out of control. Thank you so much for all you have done, Akin, it has been a wonderful experience!

Shyla - The Prissy Standard Poodle. Two Week Board and Train Option.
When Shyla came into our home ar 4 months old, she had been potty trained on a pad and was crate trained. The basics took up much of our time, especially the crate training. She was anxious and scared of many things however with time and love we successfully accomplished the crate and potty training. We sought help for the anxiety, overreacting to new things and people with Akin, through a recommendation of a friend. He is the ultimate professional, both in knowledge and experience with so many different breeds and personalities. He has a deep understanding of what your dog needs, finding the right steps and communication to help them. Luckily, Akin understands how important human communication is to continue the success of the training. He is available to help answer questions once your dog is home. As he says, “I don’t want you to struggle”.

Before looking for canine trainers out of state and having to travel long distances. I asked a friend of mine who is and Omaha Police Canine Officer for a recommendation for obedience training for a family dog that will be around my two young daughters. He highly recommended Akin with ABC Training Kennels.
I took the time to research his website and found it very informational, helpful and clear to the capabilities that can be taught to a canine and his handler. After having a phone call conversation with Akin and getting to meet him in person, I had no doubt this is the person I wanted to train my dog Zeus and myself for the best obedience training experience. Akin is very compassionate and calm and caring about how to train and care for your dog. From food to training toys to just play toys. So your dog can experience the best life for itself.
We did the Two-Week Board and Train option. Akin was awesome keeping us informed about Zeus’s training and sending videos of his training, from outdoors to inside retail store. It was great seeing Zeus retaining the information he was being taught. Watching the videos made us feel like he was a totally different dog still loving dog, but just well-behaved and trained.
After Zeus’s training and being brought home, Akin wanted to spend two hours with my wife and I and our two daughters to train us in the proper ways to communicate with Zeus and continue his training. It was very informational and user friendly to learn the commands from Akin. I will definitely be using ABC Training Kennels for future higher level canine training for Zeus and any future dog that joins our family. If you are looking for obedience training for your canine stop looking, this is the place to do it. Five Star Experience. On a fun note, Akin trained Zeus all his commands in German. So the whole family learned something new also.

After getting to enjoy our puppy time with our German Shepherd from 3 months old to 11 months old. It was time for some foundation obedience training. After spending many weeks researching canine trainers in Omaha and the surrounding area. I did not feel real comfortable with taking Zeus to any of the companies around here after talking to them and doing my research.

We want to say thank you so much for helping us in raising Hank to be a good dog. You haven’t taught us just to train a dog, you’ve taught us how to communicate with him and through that communication of what is acceptable/not acceptable a well mannered dog is the end outcome and for that we are forever grateful. Thank you!
