About Us
Founded in 2020, Traction K9 Kennels was built by a group of professional trainers and behavior specialists who recognized the critical gap in boarding for high-needs dogs. Our staff includes degreed experts, exotic animal handlers, primate trainers, PSA-titled trainers, and former veterinary hospital managers. Together, we bring advanced knowledge and hands-on experience with companion animals, working K9s, and sport dogs. That’s why dog owners travel from Austin, Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, and beyond to work with us. Learn MoreBehaviorist-Led Care
