Love, Love Eric. He not only works with training the dog but the pet parents. We have seen a complete transformation in our AM Staffordshire Terror. Esther was very reactive towards strangers and other dogs. Esther is an awesome dog. She is kind and caring. We are foster parents for children and there was never an issue with foster children, it was social workers, case workers and any adult who came into our home. Esther would bark the whole time any adult was at the house. Esther now obeys every command and not reactive at all. We don't have to leave her out in the back yard when someone is here. Something I could never do before was take Esther out for a walk and now I can. If you need someone to come to your home and work with you and your dog Eric is the guy to call.

We had an amazing experience working with Eric Volbert at Franklin K9 Academy. As first-time pet parents, we were honestly a bit overwhelmed, but Eric made the entire process so much easier and more enjoyable.He is incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and flexible with scheduling, which we really appreciated. He took the time to not only train Ollie but also teach us how to properly communicate and work with him. His methods are clear, effective, and tailored to each dog’s needs.We’ve seen such a big improvement in our Ollie’s behavior—basic commands, leash manners, and overall confidence have all improved. It’s clear Eric genuinely cares about the dogs and their owners, and that makes a huge difference.We are very satisfied with our dog training experience and highly recommend Eric to anyone looking for professional, reliable, and results-driven training!

Eric is so talented! His training is impeccable! Wonderful experience and could not be happier with all the knowledge that he gave us and our bernedoodle! Highly recommend his services!

We recently brought home a new boxer puppy. Eric came out before we brought the dog home to look over our setup and review new puppy expectations.After getting our puppy home we learned of several behavior issues that he picked up before joining us. Eric came back out and observed and provided feedback one afternoon.His guidance and redirects have completely changed our puppy experience.Cant recommend Franklin K9 Academy enough. We will continue to see training as our puppy gets older.

Eric was wonderful to work with. He took our very reactive and anxious dog and helped us transform him into a loyal and loving pet. Our pup was a rescue and had some very challenging behavioral issues and in just one session we started to notice a difference. I'm very thankful we found him and that he taught us how to help our pup.

Eric Volbert was fabulous training our Goldendoodle Kasey. He was kind calm patient and knew exactly how to train dogs. He was always on time and very accommodating to our schedule. Thanks Eric for teaching our precious puppy where her place is.

Eric did an amazing job with my 2 year old Dalmatian!! I used to not be able to take him on walks or go in public, but now my dog and I are able to communicate effectively and I enjoy walking him! He is like a completely different dog!
