The O.D.I.N. standard
Four traits. One standard for every dog.
Every program we run is built on the same four pillars — the ones that separate a dog that's merely trained from one you can truly rely on.
O
Obedience
The foundation of everything. Clear structure and consistent communication, so your dog knows exactly what's being asked.
D
Defense
Controlled protection work built on a stable temperament — a dog that switches on when asked and off when it matters.
I
Instinct
We read a dog's natural drives — prey, scent, pack — and channel them into purposeful, rewarding work.
N
Nerve
Confidence under pressure. A dog that recovers quickly, stays clear-headed, and trusts its handler anywhere.
How it works
Start with the dog in front of us.
01
Evaluation
A focused one-on-one session to assess temperament, drive, and your goals.
02
Plan
A clear, structured plan matched to your dog — not a one-size-fits-all package.
03
Train & proof
Private lessons that build reliability around real-world distractions.
The kennel
Bred for stability. Built for work.
AKC-registered Belgian Malinois, health-tested before breeding and before any puppy goes home. Every litter is raised with early temperament and aptitude assessment, so each dog finds the work it was made for.

Our sire
Odin
Odin (AKC: ODIN XXVI) is a black male born July 22, 2026, bred by Luis Davila out of Boyka Davila and Pantera Davila. His pedigree draws on Mexican and European working lines, including the French import Fantôme de la Plaine des Cheyennes and the Von Ayce line through Baco von Ayce. He's being raised and trained start to finish at ODIN-K9, and his early shaping work is already laying the foundation for a future in sport and in our breeding program.

Co-founder & trainer · Kerrville & the Texas Hill Country
Douglas Williamson
Douglas has spent over 15 years training dogs hands-on — first with his own, then with friends' and family's dogs as word got around. His methods are grounded in the drive-based, relationship-focused training pioneered by Michael Ellis, and he's fully committed to the Belgian Malinois: their drive, their intelligence, and what they're capable of with the right structure and relationship. He's currently raising a new Malinois puppy he's training from the ground up with the goal of competition — the same start-to-finish process every ODIN-K9 dog goes through.

Josh Clark
Josh has been part of this story from the very beginning. A close friend of Douglas's for over 15 years, he was there helping train Koba, the dog that started it all. Today he works alongside his own Malinois, Honey, who comes straight from Koba's line and serves as a medical assistance service dog, living proof of what this bloodline can do with the right foundation. Josh brings that same patience and steady hand to every dog he works with, and a firsthand understanding of what it takes to raise a Malinois into a dog people can truly rely on.

Our kennel
Parents & puppies
AKC-registered Belgian Malinois, health-tested before breeding and before any puppy goes home.
Every litter is planned around stable temperament, real working drive, and sound health. Puppies are assessed early so each one goes to the home and the work it’s suited for.
In memory
Koba
2015 – 2020
This all started with him. Koba was Douglas's first Malinois, and everything ODIN-K9 has become traces back to what he taught along the way. His line has since retired, but the lessons he left behind shape how every dog in this kennel is raised and trained.
