Priory K9 Training was established in Sharon, SC, September 2015. Since then we have trained hundreds of dogs ranging from poodles to police dogs. We are a full service dog training company taking pride in accepting any dog breed of any size while delivering results.

We are a small veteran owned business that is family run. We live within walking distance of our training facility. Ever expanding we are reaching for the stars by adding new services and additional options for your dog's training. We are currently adding more kennel buildings for indoor boarding and additional play/training fields, so please excuse our construction.

Andrew Collins, Owner/Training Director, is a US Naval Law Enforcement veteran and patriot. He developed his admiration for working dogs when he was assigned to the different units responsible for searching the ships when returning stateside. He also worked closely with the K-9 Units from the Cabarrus County Sheriff, Kannapolis PD and ATF while serving as Chief of Public Safety at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Having maintained his dog handling passion for several years, Andrew sought to learn how to first become an effective dog handler, which later led him into becoming a dog trainer. Although many dog trainers have "their" way, and all believe that their way is best, Andrew sought to learn different techniques assuming, and correctly so, that all dogs are NOT created equal.

For the last seven years Andrew has been studying and learning how to be a top-notch dog trainer. He has honed in on his successful dog training techniques from multiple Master Dog Trainers throughout the Carolinas. Andrew believes that teaching the owners/handlers is as important as training the dog, and that this "sharing of knowledge" leads to better trained dogs and handler/owners.

Andrew said, "Networking with different dog trainers has proven to be the reason I feel confident in my abilities to succeed in this industry." A customer server at heart, Andrew, his wife Lyndsay, and his son Jared look forward to growing and expanding their dog training business while also supporting their local church and the members of their local community.
