Who is ASTROK9 Owner
Rady Rodriguez is the founder of AstroK9 Dog Training LLC and is a passionate dog trainer whose journey began at the age of 13. His interest in dog training was sparked when he was mentored by a K9 unit Police Officer from Puerto Rico. Under this mentorship, he not only learned the skills of dog training but also underwent training in various academies, including tactical operations.
By the time Rady was 18, he had become one of the top three decoys in the Puerto Rico division and received certification as a dog trainer from FCPR (Federacion Canofila de Puerto Rico). He specialized in obedience training and protection work for dogs during his tenure in Puerto Rico. However, desiring further growth beyond his comfort zone, Rady relocated to Philadelphia and subsequently to Florida.
In Florida, Rady joined a PSA club in Tampa where he served as a decoy for nearly a year. Inspired by his experiences and driven by a desire to contribute more to the community, he founded AstroK9 Dog Training LLC in 2021. The company aims to not only teach dog owners how to train their pets effectively but also to foster better communication and connections between people and their dogs, thereby enhancing their overall quality of life.
AstroK9 Dog Training LLC, based in Deltona, FL, has since grown rapidly, assembling a knowledgeable and passionate team dedicated to guiding and supporting clients through every step of the training process. Whether in Florida or out-of-state, AstroK9 team is committed to providing top-notch service to anyone seeking to strengthen their relationship with their canine companions.
