We are so excited to be serving dogs and owners of Colorado!
Owner and founder of Train Your Human Dog Training, Kelly Huddleston began this journey into training dogs when he rescued his first personal dog, Titan Rex. It was clear that Titan would benefit from training, but first Kelly had to get some help of his own. He began training with K9 Logic in Los Angeles, CA. Over the years, with an amazing coach and with this new opportunity available, Kelly learned from as many people, asked as many questions as he could, and experimented endlessly to learn the most effective ways to train a dog. While working at K9 Logic, Kelly had an amazing opportunity to service hundreds of dogs and owners with an incredibly broad spectrum of training requests from basic pet obedience and service dog training to rescue and rehabilitation.
Rescue and rehabilitation quickly became a passion, and Kelly established partnerships with several small local rescue organizations throughout Orange County. Kelly helped train, rehabilitate and find forever homes for dozens of rescue pups. In this process, the most important step was training the new owners on how to communicate with their new dogs and be able to use all of the amazing obedience that this rescue had just learned. Most of these new homes were actually first-time dog owners or this was their first rescue experience. So far, and with fingers crossed, every rescue that came for a board and train has found and remained with their forever family. At Train Your Human Dog Training, we do not believe that the dog is the problem. Better put, your dog is having a problem and it most likely is due to a lack of communication. We believe that every dog has purpose and every dog should succeed if given the right opportunity.
Today rescue pup Titan Rex is fully rehabilitated and plays a vital role in Train Your Human Dog Training. He consistently participates in lessons acting as distraction, demonstration, and even just to help people change the way they see a Pitbull. Titan has been an amazing dog throughout the years. While he has been so patient and understanding through the years of learning, he has been especially amazing with the endless testing of new ideas on him. Titan has become an incredibly obedient dog, an amazing pet and a best friend. Together Titan and Kelly are now training to compete in upcoming French Ring Trial and are continuing to help local rescues, dogs and owners of Colorado.
Over the last few years, there have been many developments in the Train Your Human Dog Training program. We currently rent and have built a competition size field for protection dog sports and protection training at Rampart Kennels and we plan to built an indoor facility in the next year! This last year, Kelly competed with Kevin, his 3 year old Belgian Malinois, at the 2024 NARA French Ring Regionals and finished 4th and with “High in Protection.”
Kelly has assisted several local trainers with their obedience and bite work helping to bring more than a dozen dogs to passing scores and earning various level titles. Owning and working his own Australian Sheppard, he works with working lines along with your “off breeds.” If you just want to have some fun or want to be a serious competitor, we would love to help you reach your goals. We also assist local PD with various training needs and coaching with their dual and single purpose K9’s. It is a privilege to help these teams as they protect our streets.
Recently we have started several programs with Victory Service Dogs in an effort to help build and strengthen their program for service dogs and the veterans or first responders who need them. Train Your Human Dog Training has been committed to serving the community along with the local rescues and shelters. With all of the additional projects we take on, Train Your Human Dog Training donated over $30,000 in volunteer services, free training, and discounted training in 2023.
We look forward to serving you in the years to come!
