What We Solve

We Address These Issues.

Leash Pulling & Poor Manners

Dragging you down the block or jumping on every guest who walks through the door.

Reactivity & Aggression

Barking, lunging, or growling at other dogs or people that puts everyone on edge.

Zero Recall Or Off-Leash Control

You can’t trust your dog off leash — one open gate and they’re gone.

Anxiety & Lack Of Confidence

A dog that shuts down, hides, or struggles to settle in new places.

Puppy Biting & Overexcitement

No structure yet — and no idea where to start building good habits.

Struggles In Public Or With Guests

Walks, visitors, and outings feel stressful instead of enjoyable.

Meet The Team

The Trainers Behind South Jersey K9.

Family-owned and operated — every client works directly with Madisson and Antonio from evaluation to graduation, never a rotating roster of trainers.

HEAD TRAINER, CO-FOUNDER

Madisson Fowler

A professional dog trainer since 2019, Madisson launched a successful mobile dog training business before relocating to South Jersey. Her personal dogs hold multiple titles in obedience, trick, and FastCAT.

She specializes in basic obedience, behavioral modification, and off-leash reliability — offering a calm, confident approach for dogs of all ages and issues, built on modern, science-backed methods.

HEAD TRAINER, CO-FOUNDER

Antonio Masi

Training since 2019, Antonio has worked hands-on with dogs of all levels — from puppies learning the basics to adult dogs in need of serious behavioral transformation, including service dog development.

A certified USCA protection sport helper, Antonio owns a titled German Shepherd trained in Schutzhund (IGP) and blends precision, drive, and trust into every program he builds.

“At South Jersey K9, we believe training is about more than teaching skills — it’s about building a lasting relationship between you and your dog. Our passion is helping bring out the best in each dog while giving owners the confidence, tools, and support they need for a lifetime of success.”

Common Questions

Answers To Your Top Questions.

What is the Board & Train program?

Your dog trains in a structured home environment — not a large kennel facility. Every dog gets a customized plan with daily training sessions, enrichment, confidence-building, and supervised socialization, plus real-world proofing in parks, stores, and downtown environments.

Do you offer regular boarding or daycare?

No — we’re a training company, not a kennel or daycare. Every Board & Train stay includes daily structured training sessions; we don’t offer drop-off boarding without a training program attached. This is the single highest-leverage addition since it kills the boarding-seeker leads at the source.

Do you work with reactive or aggressive dogs?

Yes — behavior modification, reactivity, and aggression are core specialties, and our team is committed to matching every dog with the program that gives the safest, most successful outcome.

Do you train puppies?

Yes. Our Puppy Foundations Program is built for the critical developmental period, covering confidence, socialization, crate and potty training, leash walking, and impulse control.

What areas do you serve?

We’re based in Williamstown, NJ and serve South Jersey and Eastern Pennsylvania In-home training is available throughout South Jersey. Board & Train clients are welcome from anywhere in New Jersey, Eastern Pennsylvania, Delaware, and surrounding states.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. South Jersey K9 operates as a fully insured, licensed dog training company, with trainers who are IACP professionals and AKC STAR Puppy / Canine Good Citizen evaluators.
