Meet the Owner: Chris Park
My name is Chris Parkiotis, and I am a professional K9 trainer based in Boston, MA. With over 25 years of experience, I specialize in canine behavior and obedience training. I believe in building deep and effective communication between owners and their dogs by focusing on mental engagement rather than just physical control.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer in-home dog training in Amesbury?
Yes. We work with many clients at their homes or in local parks. In-home sessions are ideal for dogs who need help with behavior in their everyday environment.
What kind of dogs do you train?
We train dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities — from new puppies to older rescues. We adjust our approach based on your dog’s behavior and temperament.
Can you fix leash reactivity and barking?
Yes. Leash reactivity is one of the most common issues we work with in Amesbury. With the right training, we can turn frustration-filled walks into calm, structured outings.
What’s the difference between Board & Train and private lessons?
Board & Train is a more immersive, fast-track program where your dog stays with us for daily training. Private lessons are for owners who want to be more hands-on. We’ll help you decide which is best during your consultation.
