Introducing Loquek9: We are a dog training company dedicated to strengthening the bond between owners and their canine companions. Our passion lies in helping both owners and dogs grow a deeper connection through fulfillment and relationship building.
Founder & Head Trainer of Loque K9- Kealani Loque
Kealani is a certified dog trainer who completed her formal education at Highland K9 School for Dog Trainers in North Carolina. That foundation gave her the technical skills to get started, but her experience has grown far beyond the classroom. Over the years, Kealani has worked alongside and learned from a variety of seasoned professionals, gaining hands-on experience across pet obedience, behavior modification, working dogs, and service dogs.
With years of practical experience and a deep respect for the learning process of both dogs and handlers, Kealani is known for her calm presence, sharp intuition, and ability to meet each dog where they are. Her training style balances structure with engagement, prioritizing clarity, consistency, and purposeful work over quick fixes or rigid routines.
Working Dog Trainer: Chris
Chris Nichols, our working dog trainer. With a wealth of experience and knowledge, Chris has had the privilege of learning from multiple mentors throughout his journey, adding a valuable contrast to Kealani’s training style.
Chris has over 10 years of hands on experience working with K9s, and he actively trains multiple personal protection dogs, ensuring their skills are effectively tailored for family life. His training style is exceptionally balanced, prioritizing patience over constant control. By leading through behavior and reinforcement, Chris fosters a supportive and encouraging environment.
Beyond his training expertise, Chris is deeply passionate about building strong relationships between dogs and their handlers. He believes that understanding a dog’s individual needs is the key to unlocking their potential. Whether working with a family pet or a professional working dog, Chris is dedicated to enhancing the bond between canines and their humans.
In his spare time, Chris enjoys exploring the outdoors and engaging in creative projects that challenge his skills. His commitment to continuous learning and improvement reflects his belief that every dog deserves the best care and training possible.
