Front Range K9 Academy - Private Dog Trainers - Wheat Ridge, CO
Front Range K9 Academy was founded by owner and trainer, Jennifer Hime. A Colorado native, Hime has worked with dogs professionally since 1990.
We work with dogs of all ages, breeds, and sizes - from the largest mastiffs to the smallest teacup chihuahuas and poodles.
Our method is unlike any thing else being taught in the Denver area. Over 70 years in the making, the method delivers uniform, reliable, real-world results.
Our trainers are well-versed in both traditional and positive reinforcement techniques. Our open-minded style focuses on working with your dog's natural drives and instincts to teach you the secrets of communicating with your dog. Our job is to teach you how to work with your dog's individual temperament to get the best results.
Why do we train the way we do? After 29 years, and over 8000 dogs trained, we've found it really works!
Please contact and book our private dog training services on Petworks. Thank You.

How did you hone your craft?
While in Pueblo, CO, owner & training director, Jennifer Hime studied under Dog Trainer Paula Mitchell of Animal World in the fields of canine behavior and obedience training beginning in 1990. In addition to operating Front Range K-9 Academy, she has counseled dogs and their owners for Pet Country in Pueblo, Northwest Animal Hospital in Colorado Springs, CO & The Dog House, a Doggy Daycare and Boarding Kennel facility formerly located in Denver, CO. Jennifer has worked with dogs of all breeds, sizes and temperaments. She believes in focusing on each dog/owner relationship to tailor services that meet the needs of the individual. Finally, Jennifer does more than train dogs for a living; she lives with dogs for her training. She shares her home with the whippets of Horsetooth Whippets, and she bases many of the lessons she teaches in class on the lessons she's learned from her own dogs. Jennifer competes with her dogs in AKC Conformation, Obedience, and Rally-O, and coursing. Clients have travelled from as far away as Nebraska, Wyoming, and Kansas to work with this highly-recommended dog behaviorist & trainer.
What tip would you give pet parents for working with animals that you've learned as a pro?
The keys to pet training success are: patience, consistency, and clear communication with your animals.
