WELCOME TO 
 

Thank you for choosing Righteous K9 for you and your K9's training needs. We provide training out of Sandpoint, ID, from the Spokane area all the way to the  Libby, MT area.

Over the last 15 years, I have trained K9's domestically, as well as for police and military services. With your commitment to training and being trained yourself, you and your K9 can, and will, reach your full potential. 

For domestic certifications, I offer Service Dog training for veterans struggling with PTSD, as well as for other needs. I also offer Basic – Advanced obedience and behavioral training and modifications. For police and service animals, I am certified to train K9's in bomb detection, drug detection, private protection, tracking and bite work. Ideally we would begin with an Assessment of you and your K9 so that we can develop a better understanding of you and your K9's needs before tailoring a training program specifically to you, in order to tap into your K9’s true potential, ideal needs, and unique gifts. It is of my heart that man learns to tame and train his beast, for the fruition of the master, the K9, and the Kingdom. 

I was adopted as a Russian-born, Russian-speaking seven-year-old into a new land and life where I found God’s grace in a special bond with my first dog. I found I had a special gift for dogs and wanted to use this gift for His Glory. He continued to bless me in my lifetime with experience handling and interacting with K9's during my seven years serving in the United States Marine Corps.  I continued pursuing a career in professional K9 handling in private sectors and law enforcement. Now, I am called to help strengthen His flock by training His people to care for their beasts on an everyday basis.

When you choose Righteous K9, you choose a better life for you and your best friend. You support a local family thrive in your community. You make a difference.
Thank you and God bless you
