Dog Training and Behavior Counseling

There are people who love dogs (most of us!) and people who make dogs their life's work (a few of us!). These two descriptions, taken together, accurately portray what we at Common Scents K9 are all about. As people, we care deeply for the well-being of every dog under our care and tutelage. As dog owners, we relish the enjoyment that comes from having a well-trained and loving canine companion with which to share our lives. As professionals, we are deeply involved with all aspects of dog training, behavior counseling, and dog-owner interaction.

Common Scents offers you and your dog an atmosphere that incorporates top notch training in a relaxed, natural setting. We are located in a scenic rural area 10 minutes off of I-75 in Grant County. Our facility includes a 1600sq. ft. climate controlled building that is heated, air conditioned and brightly lit. The floor is completely matted for your dog's comfort. We also have 8 acres of meticulously mowed fields for outdoor training, playtime, or just going for a walk. There are jumps both indoors and on the grounds for those interested in competition training.

Prior to moving to Northern Kentucky in 2016, Common Scents had a large dog training operation in the state of Michigan. Below is an episode from a TV series, "All About Animals," hosted by a very prominent veterinarian in the area. In it, Steve discusses various topics pertaining to dog behavior and socialization.
