Randy Cabrera
(Founder & Head Trainer)

Many dog training companies miss the big picture. Yes, it's about our dogs, their wellbeing and training, but it is about their human. Without their human, dogs wouldn't have someone to make happy, to love, to lick, to even annoy at times. Randy has made it his mission to help close that gap. 

 

With InSyncK9s tailor-made training theories, we bring dog and human, pet and owner closer together! Randy has handled dogs with no obedience, aggression and anxiety issues, reactivity and lastly, dogs that have been scheduled for euthanasia. Randy's experience and skillset helped these dogs gain another chance at life and re-integrate back into society with a whole new perspective and obedience training. His passion for helping dogs is contagious and

 

Randy truly wants to make a difference in our world,  One Dog at a Time!

Our Clients Say

"I was looking for a trainer for my 16 month old Cane Corso. My dog had behavioral issues, had bitten 3 people, always barking and whining and had been aggressive toward my young boys. Being genetically an aggressive breed, we were concerned about him hurting someone, or getting hurt. We love our dog and wanted to correct the behaviors. I googled K9 trainers, and found Randy. Randy set up an initial meeting with our pup in order to assess his behaviors, in an effort to discern the training he would need. Upon meeting Randy, our pup King was not a fan, in fact he almost bit Randy after jumping up in his face. Randy talked with us and recommended a 3 week board and train program. He was confident that although King needed a lot of work, that with his experience and training with aggressive breeds, he could turn Kings behaviors around. We were hopeful as well. King left us not socialized well with other animals and people, he met people by jumping up and at times knocking them over, he would listen only when he chose and was using his body aggressively to get his way. After Randy coming to pick up our pup, we received daily updates, videos and pictures of our pup King's progress. What was wonderful, is that in the videos, Randy while training our dog, was also training us. He worked on socializing King with people and other animals. Taking King into public settings where there are lots of distractions. We requested that our dog be trained in German commands, and that is exactly what Randy did. He took the time to learn our pup and his triggers, and because of this Randy was able to provide us with important insight into our dog's behaviors, and thus giving us DO's and Don'ts, to keep both our pup safe, us and others that he may meet. Randy took additional time to educate my young children on the correct ways to handle our pup, with 2 handler training sessions, one in a public setting and one at the time of turnover. Randy was firm and transparent on the process and how he would handle our pup. We just got our pup back about a week ago, and wow! Just wow! What a difference. I am so very pleased to have my fur baby back, and with much better behavior. No more jumping when he meets people, he listens to commands, he is able to be walked OFF LEASH!!! King is calmer, does not resist the e-collar anymore and is comfortable with me putting his muzzle on when around new people, among so many other good behaviors. The combination of Randy's training of King AND the handler training has made all the difference! I feel much more confident owning an aggressive breed, now that he has been trained by InSyncK9. Randy has offered to be available any time we have any questions and/or issues in the future and if needed, will give refresher training to King. I highly recommend InSyncK9 training to anyone with a dog, but especially if you have an aggressive breed, They know what to do and how to do it. Thank you InSyncK9!!."

I am extremely grateful for the help with my two family members behavior after Randy worked with them. He made it so I could open my front door and when my two fur babies went out I just had to say home and they would come when called. He let me know that it is up to me to stay consistent to maintain the training. Not only do my fur babies come when called but I can take them on walks and not have my boy Benson  pull, but to actually walk beside me and Onxy not take off after every squirrel . The boys also place when told and set on command . Thank you

I’m so grateful to Randy for all of his hard work! My 2-year-old lab, Dilly, was out of control – no recall, pulled me down when we would walk, incessant barking, jumping on people. After 2 weeks, he was a completely new dog – he listens to me and has such great manners! I'm so happy I can take him places again and continue our daily walks (without being dragged down the street!).Thanks to Randy for being such an awesome trainer - great communication, daily pictures & videos, and I could tell Dilly really liked him. He is the best! Highly recommend!

We used Randy for our Swissy, Bo. He was wonderful. He sent us videos everyday, answered all of questions, and helped to teach us how to continue the training at home. We are grateful for all of his help. Bo is doing so much better!

Insynck9 saved my family dog. We went here as a last resort and our dog came back completely changed. His recall is amazing, the owner Randy even taught him to speak on command. I plan on taking my next dog here no matter where I end up at.

Randy transformed our 6yr old Cockapoo into the best Dog he could be. We were, and continue to be amazed by what he was able to do in two weeks. We had a list of behaviors we wanted corrected. Randy delivered on all. Our friends and neighbors have also commented on the transformation. The training aspect is only part of the process...we had 100% confidence that Randy treated our Dog as if he was his own. We anxiously waited daily for the updated videos, allowing us to see the progression. Overall, the experience was extremely positive...our dog Bailey or as Randy knows him, Mr. Beez...is living his best dog life, and we consider Randy a friend.

I sent my reactive German Shepard on the 2 week board and train with Randy and he came back well mannered and with almost no more reactivity. Now I can take him on walks without having to stress about bumping into other dogs or people. He breaks everything down in a manner that anyone without any dog training experience can understand. Dog training is worth investing in, it has elevated both my and my dogs quality of life.
