From chaos to composure — be the alpha of your pack.

NYC K9 Dog Academy is led by Stef — StefGorNYCK9 — with seventeen years of canine expertise, from basic obedience to police and military-grade protection work and ADA-compliant service dogs. We train in our private gated destination in Long Island City, or in the comfort of your home, and we travel throughout every NYC borough. Our approach is balanced: a proven blend of Pavlov's theory and positive reinforcement, alongside modern tools — slip-leads, prongs, and e-collars — always discussed with you beforehand. We believe dogs are pack animals, and we train owners to be the assertive, firm alpha their dog needs. Whether you want a well-mannered companion, a family protection dog, or a life-saving service dog, we meet your dog where they are and build reliable behavior that holds up at home, on the leash, and out in the city. Low-income families, SSI/SSD recipients, and veterans are welcome to inquire about discounted rates. Book through our form, text us, or reach out by email — we would be honored to help you and your dog build a stronger bond.
