FirstBarkOLK9 helped us with 2 of our dogs, 10 years apart. When we got a puppy we knew who we needed. This time we opted for a week of boarding w/training. Best decision we could have made. It was hard to hand our little one over but Ally was great and took great care of our girl.

2-week boarding training had great results. Trainer provided daily video progress which was great to see, and took great care and time with our dog. he came back completely different with a strong foundation of learned skills for us to build upon. our own skill with the e-collar is probably the hardest thing to get used to - so my advice to anyone doing the boarding training is to make sure you practice and spend time daily on the commands that were mastered with the trainer. after 1 week back he is doing great and is a transformed dog..
Last Saturday was our first group class. I was so happy how well Bodhi's training has worked for both of us. He continues to improve his behavior and it is a joy to just go for walks with him. Paul is an excellent sensei! I am happy I took my daughter's recommendation advise!

I have a 5 and a 1/2 month old Female Australian Shepherd. I sent her up for the board and train program. I was fortunately matched up with Dan and Sam at the Athens Georgia location. When I 1st took my baby over there she was very unmanageable she did not listen she pulled on the leash she fought me every time we went outside anything was a distraction to her if I had of let her off of a leash I probably would have never seen her again. After the 2 week board and train with Dan and Sam, I went to pick up my Remi. The 2 weeks she was gone was very difficult but well worth the wait. These 2 wonderful people were very kind and detailed when I dropped her off and then again when I picked her up. She was a completely different dog, not her personality, but she actually was calm. She listened, and I was immediately able to control her! It's like all her bad habits were gone, and she wanted nothing but to be by my side and to please me. With each command, she would stop and look up me as if to ask, what do we do now, Mama!! I can't believe how much better my relationship is with my best friend. She is so easy and so enjoyable no matter where we are. I recommend the board and train, It is well worth every dime you pay to have these guys to train your dog, it makes life so much easier and so much more fun when I can count on my girl to be right by my side without me having to worry. I could go on and on all day about how wonderful my experience was with Off- Leash K-9, but I recommend that if you are looking to have your dog trained, this is the place to go! They have several locations, so getting to them is not really difficult.
Dramatic improvement with my Golden Retriever Bentley!
