Chris Cannon

Chris is an active dog handler with a Sheriff’s Office in Kentucky. His passion for dogs and training started well before his law enforcement career. Chris has been training and working dogs for over two decades.


Chris is also a candidate for certified instructor through the Kentucky Department of Justice Training Center and Kentucky Law Enforcement Council. 

In addition to his duties as a deputy, Chris owns two businesses. Ridgeside K9 Louisville focuses on family dogs and behavior modifications. The pet dog world has allowed him to be hands-on with a countless number of dogs, which has given Chris a wealth of first-hand experience in dog behavior and learning. Cannon Canine Consulting provides working dog teams with specialized training to increase their operational efficacy; areas of interest are traffic stops, ecollar, detection, tracking and obedience/learning.

Chris is a lifelong learner. He seeks out learning opportunities to better his skills as a handler, to be a more effective trainer and to better advocate for the dog.
