What Our Clients Are Saying

“As the lead K9 Trainer for my department I have purchased multiple canines from several vendors over the years. Recently I have had the opportunity to purchase 3 new canines from Man K9. Prior to the purchase I spoke with Manuel about our training philosophies and the traits we were looking for. Manuel’s knowledge of dogs and being able to pair you with what type of traits you are looking for was spot on. The canines I purchased were incredible going through school and are now working the streets without any issues. Everyone at Man K9 form Manuel, Laurie, Sam and Fon were honest, knowledgeable, friendly and willing to help and answer any questions. It’s their passion and it shows with A+ service. Thank you for what you guys do.”

– Chad Haskins
Sr. Officer / Lead K9 Trainer

“I have been working with Man-K9, Manuel Villanueva, and his Staff since 2005 both as a K9 Handler and as the K9 Program Supervisor for a Municipal Police Department in San Diego County, California.

“Manuel and his Staff are reliable, trustworthy, and knowledgeable. They train all of our K9 Teams on two different disciplines, Patrol work and Narcotic Detection. During the K9 Academy, K9 Handlers not only learn about dog behavior but also case law, first aid, and dog’s anatomy. Manuel and his Staff do realistic scenario based training and keep up to date with current events to have reliable K9 Teams in service.

“Manuel and his Staff are available to us 24/7/365 and the work with my K9 Teams to solve problems.”

– Sgt J. M.

“Man-K9, Manuel Villanueva has been my department’s K9 trainer since 1983. Manuel’s experience and knowledge in K9 training and handling is second to none. I have been the supervisor for my departments K9 unit for four years. Manuel and his staff is always available to our department for anything K9 related. Manuel’s training is always current to what is relevant in today’s policing. He is current in both state and federal case law dealing with K9. Manuel expects our handlers to be of the best in the industry and holds and trains them to the highest standards.”
