Our Story

Rico
Owner
I have been a passionate dog lover for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of owning both small and large breed dogs, watching them grow and thrive. My wife, a horse trainer, began rescuing horses from kill pens. Together, we would purchase these horses, train them for trail riding, and find them new, loving homes. As a family, we rescued many horses, giving them a fresh start in life. With a decade of experience in working with and training police dogs, I felt it was time to give back to the dog community. This inspired me to establish Big Four K9, with the mission of rehabilitating dogs to enhance their companionship qualities.
The highlight of my work is witnessing a dog reach its full potential and live a happy, healthy, and rewarding life. When I’m not engaged in dog-related activities, I enjoy exploring a variety of other hobbies and interests.
