Danny was born and raised in the Ypsilanti/Belleville area. He started out volunteering at the local Humane Society where he would spend all day, every day making certain that every dog was walked. It didn’t matter if a dog was aggressive or extremely shy, Danny would work with all of them. It wasn’t long until his reputation spread of his dedication and compassion for every dog.
He encountered just about every issue you can think of while volunteering at the humane society which prepared him for the in-home consultations. But his true lessons on being a dog behaviorist came from living with a pack of dogs. Danny says "It's a must to be a calm assertive pack leader 24/7 to actually live among a pack of dogs." Danny’s pack varies between 15-20 dogs ranging from Rottweilers and German Shepherds to Pit Bulls and other strong breeds. This pack of unwanted and misfit dogs work together to rehabilitate unbalanced dogs and can achieve this balance much faster than any human can.
As founder and co-owner of K-9 Behavior Rehabilitation, Danny’s life is dedicated to saving and rehabilitating dogs. He knows this is the path he was born to follow.

Kelly has been an apprentice under Danny Davis since January 2011 learning about dog behavior. K9 Behavior Rehabilitation is located at their home where she and Danny live with the pack. Kelly has always been a city girl, but now loves living in the country. Kelly works as an executive assistant in Ann Arbor and has dedicated her life to the rescue and rehabilitation of dogs. The time spent with a pack of dogs has taught her much about herself and, in particular, how to be calm and take time to appreciate the small things in life. Her passion for this rewarding endeavor, stated simply, is that “all dogs deserve to be safe and fulfilled. It is so rewarding to be able to help dogs, as well as families”.
Kelly and Danny were married in June 2017.
To further our efforts to help dogs in need, we have formed Roughneck Rescue & Sanctuary, a non-profit 501c3 organization.

We are very excited about what the future holds and the impact our team can make on saving dogs that are in danger of being euthanized because of bad behaviors. It has been a dream of mine to open a dog psychology center to rescue, rehabilitate and re-home dogs. As one person, I have had the privilege of working with and saving the lives of many dogs. I am very confident that with our Roughneck Rescue & Sanctuary team we will be able to achieve so much more.
One of my favorite quotes is “A single arrow is easily broken, but not ten in a bundle.” Together we will be able to accomplish so much and change the destiny of many dogs. I can’t express enough how grateful I am to all of you for your past support and thankful that we can call you friend. We have a very important mission to follow and I have personally dedicated my life to this mission. I know this is the path I was born to follow.
