About K9DC
We have created your dog's idea of heaven!
We combine the highest level of care, physical & mental stimulation, closely monitored doggy interactions and science-based (positive reinforcement) training/behaviour modification into a single experience.
K9DC is dedicated to offering an exceptional experience, with sites in Shamley Green (near Cranleigh) and Ewhurst in the beautiful Surrey Hills. Our facilities are designed to provide an enriching, safe, and organic environment for dogs to have fun, develop, and learn. The dogs are constantly supervised by our fully trained, qualified, and loving team, who are experts in their field.
With multiple spacious fields, a woodland walk and cosy resting areas, we can group dogs by age, size, play style, and friendship groups. Pupdates ensure pawrents can see what their companions get up to during the day, and you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your dog is receiving the best possible care!
We strive to educate as many pawrents as possible about their dog's behaviour, resulting in strengthened relationships and happy, fulfilled pooches! We care for your dogs as if they were our own, ensuring a personal experience unlike any other.

NATALIE KPA-CTP, ABTC-ATI
owner, founder & head trainer
K9 Development Centre was founded by Natalie, a Certified Training Partner with the Karen Pryor Academy (Professional Dog Training Program).
Natalie has always been passionate about dogs. However, it was her treasured rescue, Kimba, that set her on a new and exciting path that would be the birth of K9DC.
With Kimba (German Shepherd - right) arose several 'problem' behaviours that Natalie realised required professional help. Before being in the industry herself, she called upon numerous trainers and behaviour specialists to help with Kimba's behaviour. Natalie found they all had one thing in common: they could not help.
Not wanting to give up on her companion, she embarked on her own journey to transform Kimba; the rest is history!
Natalie is a Certified Training Partner with KPA and an ABTC accredited Animal Training Instructor.
