" We recently completed several enjoyable dog training sessions with Joe Millwood. We had training sessions with other trainers previously, but none of them were as effective as Joe. Joe was extremely knowledgeable and knew exactly what type of training our dog needed to fix the issues we were concerned with. "

" I give Mill-Sec K9 a huge 5star review!!! I've been bringing my 2.5 yr old rottie for some obedience to prepare for the k9 good citizens award test and we have been able to start some search & rescue training!! Joseph Millwood has been an amazing trainer! He explains the how and the why, he is great with me and Voight! when voight first started he was shy and a little nervous and had some separation anxiety; since he has started school he has really blossomed into an amazing dog, his confidence is really starting to shine and he is able to be home alone all day without destroying the house!!! I can't say how proud I am of my boy snd how thankful I am for finding Mill-Sec K9! I am excited to continue my training with Joseph and I will bring all my future puppies straight here for basic obedience!!! "
