Professional Dog Training in Arizona
QUALITY K9 IS THE PREMIERE DOG TRAINING FACILITY IN THE HEART OF ARIZONA
Welcome to Quality K-9, where passion for dogs meets unparalleled expertise in dog training. Nestled near the idyllic Prescott Valley in Arizona, our facility stretches over 3.5 lush acres, providing ample space for dogs to learn, play, and thrive. Prescott’s charm doesn’t just lie in its breathtaking landscapes; it’s a haven for dog lovers. With its dog-friendly ethos, you can bring your canine companions almost anywhere, making socialization a breeze. Plus, our temperate weather ensures training sessions are comfortable year-round, a stark contrast to the sweltering heat of Phoenix.
At the helm of Quality K-9 is Tino Reinke, our esteemed owner and head trainer. Tino isn’t just any trainer; he’s a luminary in the field with over 30 years of rich experience shaping both canines and their human counterparts. His background is as impressive as it is diverse, with a solid foundation in military and police dog training that underscores his profound understanding of discipline, loyalty, and the profound bond between dogs and their handlers.
Tino’s journey in the dog training realm has taken him across the globe, where he’s honed his skills alongside some of the world’s most renowned trainers. This international exposure has not only enriched his training methodologies but has also imbued him with a unique perspective that he brings to every training session at Quality K-9.
In an industry where many claim to have trained thousands of dogs, Tino stands apart. His claim is not just credible; it’s backed by a trail of successful transformations and rehabilitations of canines, spanning various disciplines. From pet dog training that fosters a harmonious living with your furry friend, to specialized training in personal protection and sport dog training, Tino’s expertise is all-encompassing.
Joining Tino in leading Quality K-9 is Angelika Clark, our dedicated General Manager and an experienced dog trainer in her own right. With over 30 years of experience, Angelika brings a wealth of knowledge to our team, especially in high-level competition dog training. As an AKC-CGC Evaluator, her standards of excellence are unparalleled. Born and raised in Germany, Angelika’s training philosophy has been shaped by the world-class dog trainers she’s worked and learned from across the globe. Her approach to dog training, particularly in obedience, is heavily influenced by motivational methods, ensuring that training is not only effective but also a positive experience for both dog and handler.
Enhancing our team’s dynamic expertise is Jamie Smith, PhD, a distinguished Dog Behaviorist and trainer. Jamie’s academic credentials are as impressive as they are relevant; holding a Bachelor’s in Psychology and Biology, a Master’s in Holistic Care, and a Doctorate in Animal Naturopathy. Jamie is also a certified Canine Fitness Instructor/Evaluator, bringing over 20 years of experience to Quality K-9. Her holistic approach to dog training and behavior modification, grounded in a deep understanding of animal health and psychology, complements our team’s diverse skill set, ensuring a well-rounded training program that addresses the physical, emotional, and psychological needs of our canine clients.

A Different Approach to Professional Dog Training
Our training and coaching is tailored to 3 things:
Your dog
Your area of pursuit
You as a person
We focus on developing a bond of trust and respect between you and your canine companion. Having this foundation in your relationship makes training and living with your dog rewarding and fun.
Why should you train your dog?
Learning proper dog training skills significantly improves the relationship between you and your dog. You will benefit from becoming a better handler and your dog will succeed with proper motivational training.
A little dog training theory...
What you and your dog experience in life, will stay with you forever. Good or bad. As humans we are much more forgiving when it comes to bad experiences in life. For dogs this is not so simple. Behavioral science teaches us that dogs revert to the first experience made, the first learned behavior. This is why early training is essential. But all is not lost if you start late…it just requires a bit more patience. Sometimes it’s the journey that makes the best relationships!
Dog Boarding and Training
Our dog boarding and training option is our most successful training program.
It is perfectly suited for you if you:
• Wish to have us train your dog for you, giving you the tools to continue successful training at home
• Want your dog trained in our trainer’s household, not in a boarding kennel
• Want fast results, proven to last
In-home and Private Dog Training
Our Day Training Program is ideal for you if you:
• Do not want to part with your dog for an extended period of time
• Want to be actively involved in your dog training
• Want to work with us privately; in the comfort of your own home.
