ASHLEY’S K9 TRAINING

I’LL BE YOUR GUIDE

You love your dog and want the best for them. A well mannered, confident companion you can truly enjoy life with. Whether that’s relaxing at home, going out in public, or simply having peace of mind day to day, you know what’s possible.

But real life with dogs isn’t always that easy. Frustrating behaviors, lack of consistency, or just not knowing what to do next can leave you feeling stuck. That’s where I come in.

At Ashley’s K9 Training, I help you bridge the gap between where your dog is now and where you want them to be. With real life training, clear communication, and a results driven approach, I’ll guide you every step of the way so you can build a dog you trust and a relationship you’re proud of.

MEET ASHLEY

My name is Ashley Dicken, Founder and Head Trainer of Ashley’s K9 Training, and I’m a certified canine trainer and behavior specialist who is truly passionate about helping dogs and their people thrive together. I hold advanced certifications through Starmark Academy and the American Kennel Club (AKC), am a member of the International Association of Canine Professionals, and continually pursue ongoing education in behavior, nutrition, fitness, and training so I can serve my clients well. My journey began with my own dog, Zelena, who struggled with severe aggression and reactivity and ultimately led me to discover my life’s calling through helping her. Though she passed away in 2021, she remains the heart behind everything I do, and it’s my joy to walk alongside owners with compassion, guidance, and practical tools to help them build confidence, clarity, and a beautiful life with their dogs.

  • "Ashley was very attentive to my specific requests, had clear and concise instructions on how to work with my dog on our unique issues, and gave me some tools to turn frustration into success! Highly recommended!"

    —JENNIFER FOWLER

  • “Ashley is very professional & patient with not only our dogs, but with us. We have learned training involves teaching us how to effectively communicate with our dogs. We highly recommend Ashley’s K9 Training program. We trust her 110% with our dogs any day!”

    —DANA CALLAWAY

  • "Ashley is amazing! I would recommend her for all your training needs whether if be for puppy, service or behavioral corrections. She is patient but tough and even more, she gets results. She's been training our puppy as a service dog and I still can't believe how educated and dedicated Ashley is. Our puppy is spastic so it's been a long process but the results speak for themselves. You won't regret giving Ashley a try!"

    —KELLY MCGHIE

  • "Ashley is truly amazing! She helped both our dogs who have unique personalities and training goals. Her program is custom to your dog and their needs. She was always available when we had questions, concerns or just wanted a photo of the dogs. She gave our dog one on one attention as if they were her dogs. Our dogs get so excited to see her and her home. I would definitely recommend! Thank you for all you do Ashley!"

    - JILL R

  • "We have been taking our puppy to Ashley for about 6 months and it has been wonderful! She offers a lot of training options that work with our schedule and individualized needs. She does a great job of educating us too so we can continue the training ourselves at home. She always gives us updates during boarding so we can be assured she’s happy and learning. We will continue to utilize Ashley for our current pup and any future dogs! Highly recommend :)"

    - JESSICA WATERS

  • "Ashley is such an amazing trainer. We have self trained 2 dogs and I can tell you working with Ashley has made the training process so much easier and better. Ashley is training our daughter’s service dog and the knowledge she brings to the table is incredible! She is so patient with our puppies antics and knows when to be firm with her as well. She goes above and beyond to trainer our girl. I can not recommend her enough."

    -KELLEY M.

  • "Ashley changed our life and more importantly our dog’s life. He originally was reactive to everything and everyone, scared of the world. He couldn’t board anywhere. Ashley, knowing our situation from a desperate plea for help, reached out and worked with us. Since Ashley, our dog is able to go on walks without being scared and reactive to the world, enjoy his boarding when we’re away, and most importantly grow his confidence daily. We continue to work with her and can’t recommend Ashley enough to anyone in any position with their dog."

    - MERRICK M.

  • "Ashley did great with our pup, night and day difference in one week! We are very happy with the results. Ashley gave us realistic expectations and listened to our concerns, every concern was addressed in her training.Lola was pampered and very well taken care of with Ashley and we received pictures and videos often showing her progress. I highly recommend her services to all!!!"
