Divine K-9, Inc. is based in Putnam County, NY. We provide agility group classes, private lessons, and clinics in both indoor and outdoor facilities.

Divine K-9 promotes reward-based training founded on the principles of learning theory. We believe in creating a positive, fun experience for both the dog and handler using motivational games and laying down a solid foundation to help build a long, successful agility career.

We use creative techniques to teach your dog how to think and how to make good choices. These techniques help build confidence in the dog while forging a trusting bond between the dog and handler.

About the Instructor: Bobbie Bhambree is the Agility Director at Divine K-9 Dog Training and a regular student at Say Yes! Dog Training, one of North America's leading dog training facilities.

Bobbie is currently competing with Charlotte (6 year old Australian Kelpie) and Tricky (2 year old terrier/chihuahua cross). Charlotte is well on her way to earning various USDAA Master titles. Tricky is already placing and qualifying at this very young age, due to a solid foundation in her early training.


Working with different breeds, with very different personalities, in this sport has presented Bobbie with a variety of challenges that has helped her become a more well-rounded instructor and competitor, thanks to the Say Yes! program. Bobbie has learned that although the innovative, progressive techniques taught by the Say Yes! team are designed for Agility training, much of it is applicable to everyday life with dogs in creating well- mannered companions. Bobbie regularly attends clinics with Susan Garrett, Greg Derrett, Laura Derrett, and Susan Salo. Bobbie is also a long-time student of Tracy Sklenar.
