Hello. I am Kaitlin Roe formerly Kaitlin Clapper, I am the owner and Head Trainer at Rocky Road K9. I have been working dogs all my life. I was raised around Sheriff K9s and after school went to National K9 and became certified as a Master Dog Trainer. After that I started training in my hometown in Ohio. I was then given the opportunity to work for The Dog Wizard in North Carolina. In the past few years I have trained hundreds of dogs of all different breeds and personalities. I have certifications in: On leash Obedience, Off leash Obedience, Behavioral Modification, Tracking, Scent Work, Police K9 Training, Assistance Dog Training and more. I currently own four German Shepherds Luger, Sully, and Jaxx. I was also a K-9 unit for a local security company in the Myrtle Beach area. Jaxx was my everyday partner both with the business and on the streets. I look forward to meeting and working with you and your dogs!

Sully

This is Sully. He is my 11 year old German Shepherd. He was a rescue and the dog I took to National K9. Sully has taught me a lot about patience and how to handle very fearful dogs. He is an awesome dog and after he gets to know you he is everyone's best friend. He has also taught me a lot about reading dogs body language. Sully loves to work obedience and is always trying to please. He is still scared of new people but has came such a long way since the day I rescued him.

Luger
|
Luger was my oldest boy. He would have been 17 years old April 2018. Sadly Luger's age got the best of him in Feb. 2018 and we had to say our final goodbye. Luger stood by my side for the last 16 years, and I stood by him and held him until his last breath. Luger was supposed to be the first Sheriff K9 unit for my hometown but didn't make the cut so I took him in and started working him in our local 4-H club and ended up going to State Fair with him multiple times. I also worked him with tracking and worked a little bit of Search and Rescue with him. He is a very large boy weighing in at about 110lbs. Luger was always ready to do what I ask and was so willing to please. Luger has also worked some Personal Protection and bite work.

Jaxx
|
Jaxx is 7 years old. He was an owner surrender because he started to show aggression towards people and the family had no choice but to rehome him because of small children in the home and there were no trainers in their area. He came to me from my hometown in Ohio. His training started immediately and since has been a great addition to our family. He helps me socialize other dogs and helps them fit into the pack when they are here for training. Jaxx has also started Personal Protection work and has excelled in it greatly. Jaxx and Kaitlin also were a K-9 unit for a local security company before Jaxx fell in love with the retired life.
