in just 2 to 4 weeks.

At Tip Top K9 DFW, we resolve most behavior issues in just a few weeks, and our most popular way to get there is our Doggy Boot Camp.

Your dog lives with our trainer for 2 to 4 weeks and receives daily, focused one-on-one training from morning to evening. No distractions, no missed sessions, no shortcuts.

By the time they come home, you will have a calmer, more obedient dog who listens in real-life situations, not just in a controlled training environment.

We help turn chaos into calm, and we stick with you until your dog gets it right. That's our PAWsitive results guarantee.

Life with a dog is busy enough.

One dollar to start. One trainer for your dog. One promise that doesn't expire.

A real assessment.

No pressure, no obligation. An expert trainer spends an hour with you and your dog, tells you what they actually need, and you decide from there.

1 :1
Custom plan

Built around your dog.

No two dogs are the same. Every plan is structured around your dog's age, breed, triggers, and the real situations they have to handle — not a checklist.

I had an amazing experience with the training and boarding program. I chose the advanced package for my dog Sadie and I'm thoroughly impressed with the results. The program was detailed and professional, with weekly updates throughout her stay. What stood out was how much time they spent coaching me on the commands so I felt confident continuing at home.

My 5-month-old puppy Bronco just completed the 7-day House Manners Boot Camp and I'm really happy with the results. He learned sit, come, place, and off — and after just two days home we've already started practicing off-leash. So many people have complimented how well-behaved he is and asked where I had him trained.

Our vet recommended Tip Top K9, and from the first phone call to the last session it was excellent. Our trainer Liz was AMAZING and knew not just dogs but Stormi's breed. By the 3rd session I could see a major change for the better. My favorite parts were the in-home training and the lifetime group classes.

Liz is an amazing trainer! She's been working with our giant 64-lb puppy Wyatt, and the transformation in his focus and obedience has been wonderful to see. She really understands dog behavior and makes the training process enjoyable for both the dog and the owners.

We are so happy with the help we got from Eli and Tip Top K9. Poppy went from a reactive, uncontrollable dog to one who listens and obeys. We are both much happier and trust each other more. I highly recommend Tip Top K9 — it was worth every penny.

We had our 8-month-old Weimaraner do the week-long training and our older Weimaraner do three home trainings. Our younger dog learned so much. Liz gave clear instructions and both dogs have picked up better behaviors. We'll definitely keep using the group sessions at Trinity Park.

Rory came home after a month of boarding with training and I'm beyond impressed with the staff and her training. I'm confident taking her everywhere — I have two toddlers and an infant. The staff is amazing, super kind, and you can tell they love every dog that comes in.

Been training my dog Olive and she's doing so well with trainer Cameron, who gives clear instructions while making everything fun. He is very reassuring and encouraging through all the steps. 10/10 recommend.

Senior Trainer · Tip Top K9 DFW
Specialty Private lessonsTraining DFWFocus In-home & obedience

I've been with Tip Top K9 for six years — long enough to have worked through just about every kind of dog and every kind of owner. My parents emigrated from Laos, and I grew up understanding that real change comes from patience and consistency, with dogs and with people. These days I run private lessons across McKinney and Frisco, working one-on-one with families in the homes and neighborhoods where the everyday problems actually happen.

Liz

Trainer · Fort Worth & Southlake

I'm from East Texas, and at home I've got two Akitas and an eight-year-old daughter — so I know exactly what a busy, full household feels like. I handle training across the Fort Worth and Southlake areas, helping families turn everyday chaos into a dog they can actually live with.

Trainer · McKinney & Frisco

My own dog is Luna, a one-year-old rescue who keeps me honest about how much work that first year really takes. I run private lessons in McKinney and Frisco, working with owners to build the right foundation early — before small habits turn into big ones.
