Hi, I’m Carson and I am the owner and trainer behind Country x Coast K9. I am originally from Emporia, Kansas and was raised spending my time between there and Colorado. Dogs have always been a big part of my life and naturally developed into my passion and career when I brought my first dog home who began showing some serious behavior issues at an early age. After seeing how significantly my life and relationship with my dog had improved throughout pouring my time and efforts into learning how to train him, I couldn’t walk away from dog training and the dream of offering the same life changing experience to others and their dogs.

From there, I dedicated the next several years to working under accomplished and knowledgeable trainers where I lived in both Hawaii and Arizona. During this time I gained the valuable experience and skills needed to not only teach dogs but also their owners what it means to have healthy boundaries, efficient communication, and an overall healthy and enjoyable relationship. I believe a good teacher never stops learning so I am extremely fortunate to continue to be able to spend time attending seminars and building relationships with other trainers/ teachers in the dog community from all over the U.S.

My goal is to continue to help others enjoy life with their canine companions to their full potential through training at Country x Coast K9.

I now reside in Kansas and when I am not training client dogs you will find me enjoying the outdoors, spending time with family, and training my personal dogs Kaipo; belgian malinois and Hammer; belgian malinois for competitive dog sports.
