Since 1994, Roger has run training and boarding at his kennel in Santa Ana, with the same grit, honesty, and relentless dedication that have made him a legend to many of you (and maybe a little infamous to some). After decades of working with dogs—truly working with them, not just housing them—the property has officially been sold, and we’re stepping away from boarding.

But let’s be clear—Your Dog Trainer isn’t gone, and neither is Roger. While he’s taking a well-earned break, he’s not hanging up his training leash for good. Once he figures out where he wants to land, he’ll be ready to take on training clients again. Because no matter where he is, dogs—and the people willing to put in the work with them—will always be part of his life.

If you’re looking for boarding, the new owner is welcoming our clients. The owner’s name is Holly and their business is “Bed, Bark and Beyond” and if you’d like to reach out, her number is 714-697-8016.

To all of you who’ve trusted Roger, who’ve appreciated his straight-shooting approach, and who’ve stuck around because you know he always does right by the dogs—thank you. He’s put in the work, given a million chances, and never stopped believing in the connection between dogs and their people. And he’s not about to stop now.

We’ll keep you posted on what’s next, but for now—thank you for being part of this ride. We still have our number (714) 547-5047 if you do want to inquire about training or just say hello.
