Unveiling Excellence: VanBuren K9 Academy – Asheville’s Premier Dog Trainer
Born in Hickory, NC, my journey into dog training started early, fueled by a passion ignited in library aisles and nurtured by interactions with breeders and trainers. Witnessing the interplay between genetics and training firsthand, I embarked on a quest for knowledge that led me to Texas, where fate introduced me to my wife and her German Shepherd. After 27 years and three children, a transformative visit to Asheville, NC, spurred a decision to relocate. Now, in the heart of Western North Carolina, we bring over 32 years of expertise to the community, bridging our legacy from Texas. Our philosophy is simple: prioritize reality over gimmicks and empower owners to become partners in their dog’s training journey. With AKC-accredited group classes and private sessions, we welcome every dog owner seeking a well-mannered companion. Join us in Asheville, where transformation awaits both you and your canine companion.
