Lee & Sonya Weatherall

PROFESSIONAL K9 HANDLERS

Arkansas meets New York!

We are professional K9 handlers, trainers, and breeders from different walks of life. We love bringing our passion into K9 projects of all sorts. We enjoy helping pet owners overcome obstacles no matter how big or small.

 It was through the K9's that we found one another. Lee, with 25 years, and myself with 23 years of K9 experience and education, independently worked across North America, demonstrating multiple K9 disciplines, and enjoying the interactions between K9's and clients.

In addition to helping others, we have both experienced our own life struggles. Our boys, Jasper and Kai, are our personal service dogs. (I never imagined one day I would need a service dog, and I hadn't imagined my boy Kai would take on that responsibility.)  It is though the experiences of needing our own service dogs that we have founded a program called Hounds With Halos. Our goal is to create a win-win for shelter dogs and families. We work with our local shelters to find the one, the perfect match, for our clients who come to us requesting a service dog or emotional support dog. Our knowledge and K9 rehabilitation experience equips us with the tools necessary to find the connection between human and dog that will build and strengthen that lasting life bond. 

 We are AKC certified trainers and evaluators for AKC tests and certifications. Contact us for AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy, Canine Good Citizen, AKC Community Canine, and AKC Urban CGC, AKC Trick Dog, AKC FIT DOG and the AKC Temperament Test.
