Fix the Root Cause of Your Dog’s Behavior Problems
If your dog’s behavior is creating stress, embarrassment, or safety concerns — you're not alone. Many owners in Kansas City, Missouri and surrounding areas.
They struggle with dogs who bark excessively, lunge on leash, ignore commands, or act out in ways that seem unpredictable. But the real issue often isn’t the behavior itself — it’s a lack of clarity, leadership, and communication between you and your dog.
At Earls K9 Services, Earl specialize in helping owners understand and resolve behavior problems at their source. Through focused, one-on-one behavior consulting, Earl Newland — also known as The Original Kansas City Dog Whisperer — teaches you how to confidently lead your dog, create structure, and transform chaos into calm.
This isn’t obedience training. This is
behavior change through owner coaching.
What Is Dog Behavior Consulting?
Dog behavior consulting goes far beyond sit, stay, and heel. It addresses emotional, environmental, and leadership issues that drive unwanted behaviors.
Earl helps Kansas City, Missouri and surrounding areas dog owners handle:
- Leash reactivity and pulling
- Aggression toward people or animals
- Fearful or anxious behavior
- Jumping, barking, biting, or guarding
- Destructive chewing or digging
- Obsessive behavior or hyperactivity
These behaviors are rarely about a “bad dog.” They are almost always a result of confusion, stress, or miscommunication. Earl’s method helps you shift your role from frustrated owner to

Real Results from Real Dog Owners
Earl was extremely helpful!!! He gave us great suggestions for preparing our dog, Burty, for her upcoming move to Colorado. He was very positive and didn’t make us feel guilty as if we had done something wrong with her training.

Earl really is the dog whisperer! I adopted a 7-year-old dog from a shelter who is incredibly sweet to all people but does not love other dogs. She showed aggression to my parents' dog which really upset me and made me nervous. Earl came to my house to meet my dog and gave me detailed instructions on how to introduce adult dogs. His instructions have been unbelievably helpful and now my dog is able to go on walks with my parents' dog without the tiniest bit of aggression. I am so grateful to Earl for his initial help as well as his continued help throughout the last several weeks in turning my dog into a truly great companion.

Earl's reputation and experience is evident in the other video review Earl saved a dog from being euthanized I feel so confident when I recommend Earl to my friends that Earl can sense the actual behavior issues. Thank you Earl for the help with my 3 dogs! They behave at the front door better when guests arrive.
