“To be loved is to be understood.”

Since I was 4 years old, I’ve known I wanted to work with dogs. Now I get to help you understand yours!

Hello and Welcome to Capp's K9 Connections! My name is Nia Williams, owner and trainer. I’m a born and raised LA native, with over 7 years of experience in dog behavior, nutrition, and training. My passion for dog training was inspired by my dog Cappuccino, who I rescued from South LA Animal Shelter in 2018. It was our personal training journey that influenced and encouraged me to help others learn how to build a better relationship with their own dogs. I’ve been training professionally for over 4 years and have a certificate in Canine Nutrition from FeedReal. I’m excited to work with you!

CK9 Connections is dog training and nutrition service that believes a relationship based off respect, trust, and love is the best way to create an ever-lasting bond with your pet. I use my knowledge of dog behavior and nutrition to meet your dog's needs, with the end goal being a fulfilled and confident dog. I have a unique approach that combines obedience, leash work, play, and balanced training methods to coach you on how to communicate with your dog. My dual approach with training and nutrition allows for me to see the whole picture and ensure that all dogs feel their best physically, mentally, and emotionally. Developing a happy, confident dog requires for us to see each dog as an individual, so I create training and nutritional plans specific to your dog’s needs. I currently offer private training sessions in home or at a local park, group classes in Santa Monica, and nutrition counseling.
