In-Home Dog Training for North Reading
Roman's K9 brings professional, one-on-one dog training directly to your home in North Reading, MA. No crowded group classes and no weeks away at a kennel: just private lessons where your dog actually lives, walks and misbehaves.
North Reading borders Wilmington to the east, with wooded neighbourhoods, big backyards and plenty of conservation land, which means plenty of wildlife and plenty of reasons for a dog to chase. Recall and impulse control are top priorities for many of our North Reading clients.
Where we train in North Reading
Ipswich River Park and the trails of nearby Harold Parker State Forest are excellent places to build reliable recall and off-leash control around real distractions.
Common goals for North Reading dog owners
Dogs here often struggle with chasing wildlife, fence-running, barking at passers-by and ignoring recall in the yard. These are all very fixable with structure.

Kurtis was amazing with my dog! Benny can be a pain with leash pulling but even after one session with Kurtis, he was immediately much better! Kurtis was extremely professional and passionate and genuinely cares about the success of the dogs and the owners. Kurtis also took the time to teach me how to maintain this progress at home which was fantastic. …
Kurtis was a pleasure to work with. Very informative and to the point. We noticed a significant change in our Lab after just one visit! Highly recommend Roman K9 for those who seek swift correction in their dogs and human behavior.

He particularly enjoys/excels at working with dogs struggling with behavioral issues of any kind. …
