About Us
Established in 2020, Traction K9 Kennels was launched by a group of professional trainers and behaviorists who recognized the critical gap in boarding for high-needs dogs. Our staff includes degreed experts, exotic animal handlers, primate trainers, PSA-titled trainers, and former veterinary hospital managers. Together, we bring a wealth of expertise and hands-on experience with companion animals, working K9s, and sport dogs.
