We are a balanced dog training company that focuses on training using the four quadrants of operant conditioning. We strive to create an environment of mutual respect and understanding between dog and owner, as we recognize that no two dogs are alike.

Our Story:

Hello! My name is Seven Flores. I am the owner and developer of Kn9ne Vibes and this is our story!

In 2009, I began my journey in the dog industry, always seeking new opportunities and challenges. Alongside my other responsibilities, I dedicated my time and efforts to volunteering at an animal shelter, committing five days a week for four hours each day without any monetary compensation. This commitment lasted for over a year, during which the shelter recognized my consistent dedication and exceptional work. Impressed by my contributions, they offered me a position as a “vet tech” with a proper salary, providing guidance under the supervision of their resident veterinarian.

While I pursued this role for several months, I soon realized that the medical aspect of the industry did not align with my emotional disposition. Witnessing the euthanasia of numerous dogs on a monthly basis took a toll on my mental well-being. It was difficult to comprehend why these beautiful animals were being put to sleep due to seemingly minor issues such as “jumping on the counter” or “excessive barking” or simply aging. The excuses I heard only deepened my sense of frustration.

This experience prompted me to explore alternative paths within the dog industry. Eventually, I found employment at a company where I received compensation for my work. Initially, I performed tasks common to dog trainers, including cleaning kennels, feeding dogs, and engaging in playtime. However, thanks to my previous experience at the shelter, I possessed a solid understanding of canine behavior. Consequently, I transitioned to the daycare division of the business, where I was tasked with overseeing a diverse group of dogs with varying personalities in a single room.

During this time, I rescued a Belgian Malinois who had been abandoned by another trainer. It was then that I realized I had more than just a “pet” dog. I recognized the untapped potential and extraordinary nature of my canine companion. Basic training alone would not suffice for him, so I embarked on extensive research and sought guidance from a mentor within the company. This mentor took me under her wing and provided invaluable guidance.

Fast forward to the present, I am now the proud owner of Kn9ne Vibes. Through my journey, I developed an intense passion for my dog and the remarkable bond we shared. He became my protector and my best friend, always there for me. In return, I felt compelled to provide him with the best life possible. Moreover, I realized that I wanted to extend my knowledge and assistance to others who faced challenges with their own dogs. I wanted to offer hope and help improve their relationships because I knew it was achievable. As the saying goes, a well-behaved dog never made a skillful handler. This is why we emphasize the importance of “TRUST THE PROCESS.” A dog’s love for its owner surpasses self-interest and remains unparalleled in this world.

I hope you and your furry friends will come join us on this journey together! We can’t wait to meet you!
