The CENTER
Hello there! My name is Andie Zelles-Lehman. I’m a passionate dog lover and the enthusiastic founder of the K9 Connect Center, LLC. My days are filled with the joy of working with our furry guests and helping them be their best selves while simultaneously forming stronger family connections. With a playful spirit and a heart full of compassion, I thrive on creating engaging experiences for both dogs and their people. Whether I’m sharing tips for training, organizing playful activities, or simply enjoying a wagging tail, I’m all about spreading the love and knowledge for our four-legged companions. Let’s embark on this tail-wagging journey together; let’s GET CONNECTED!
About Andie
Reflecting on my journey, it's amazing to see how far we've come with K9 Connect Center. It all started with a simple love for dogs and being raised with two dog fancier parents in the showing world. I was and am a passionate dog lover who thrived in training and showing dogs. That passion developed further as I worked with family dogs and watched their dream dog become reality with my specialized training programs. All the while, that small fire grew to a roar and my hobby became a profession 20 years later.
Fast forward to today, and K9 Connect Center has blossomed into a bustling hub for dog lovers! From our engaging training classes that turn pups of all ages and breeds into stars, to our fun, and unique ‘K9 Country-Cations’ where tails wag and friendships flourish in our unique 23+ acre pup-paradise! Every aspect of our business has been crafted with care and a playful spirit.
Our specialized programs have made a real impact. Dogs of all shapes and sizes come to us for training, grooming, and boarding, leaving with tails wagging and big smiles on their furry faces. And let’s not forget our community events! Regular meet-ups, educational workshops, and even doggy costume contests – every event is an opportunity to celebrate the joy of dog ownership.
Looking back, it’s incredible to see how a simple passion transformed into a thriving business that not only promotes the well-being of dogs but also strengthens the bond between them and their humans. The joy of seeing dogs and their families grow, learn, and play together fuels our drive every single day. Here’s to many more years of wagging tails, happy barks, and the playful spirit that defines K9 Connect Center!
