About Us

        Over 30 years working with dogs.  Kristy Baugher, an ABCDT Certified Obedience Instructor, AKC CGC Approved Evaluator, AKC Fit Dog Instructor and the owner of Kristy's K9 Training LLC, began her experience soon after high school when she began training and showing dogs under the guidance and mentoring of an AKC confirmation judge and dog trainer.  She attended AKC sanctioned events throughout the years and gained invaluable handling experience along with obtaining numerous confirmation awards with her dogs. That experience and life passion for working with dogs developed into training and owning registered TDI Therapy Dogs, AKC title holders in multi-level Trick Dog, S.T.A.R. Puppy, Canine Good Citizen, Temperament Testing, AKC Achiever Dog and more. 

       Kristy is an alumni dog training college member and an honors graduate completing her work at one of the top ranked dog trainer colleges in the U.S. She has education in Pet CPR and Pet First Aid, and Kristy's K9 Training LLC is currently an AKC Fit Dog Club. Besides training obedience, she has also been involved in the training of rescued dogs, service support dog tasks, therapy dog prep and disc dogs. She has also assisted training blind and deaf dogs. She also has education in Canine, Feline and Exotic Animal Care.  She continues to broaden her knowledge by attending seminars and further training. Having worked for years also as a 911 Police/Fire/EMS Dispatcher and EMT on an ambulance squad, Kristy has developed emergency skills that have proven invaluable when quick thinking is needed when working around certain animal behaviors and situations.

Greg & Beth S.

"I brought my newly rescued dog to Kristy because I was at a loss to know how to handle her out of control jumping and nipping at everyone who came in our house. I was nervous about whether I had made the right decision about getting this dog. Kristy not only worked with my dog, she gave me the instruction and tools I needed to help my dog find her place in our family."
