My husband and I did the basic obedience training with Dan. We have a French Bulldog and to be honest I had very low expectations of him. I was impressed with Dan from the very beginning of the training. His patience with Mike (our dog), confidence, passion for the program, knowledge of dogs in general and guidance with us was really outstanding. He was able to allow Mike to gain confidence even through the typical bulldog stubbornness. Mike excelled and in turn we did as well. We are truly grateful for this program, that is the start of a lifelong commitment to keeping Mike trained and happy.

Before we brought our 80# Airedale to Derek (and Stevie) he was very hard to control. While Airedales are a pretty gentle breed and great family dogs, our Milo doesn’t know how big he is and in trying to be friendly or playful menaced older people and children. On our walks he playfully lunged at every person, dog or rabbit he saw. But an 80# dog lunging on a leash was very unpleasant and unsafe. He made me quite afraid he would pull me down or hit my knees in a damaging way.
But now after a two-week intensive training with Derek at Off-Leash we can trust him anywhere with anyone. Now our walks are enjoyable, and we’re getting lots more of them in. Milo is like a new dog. Not only is he now obedient, he is also happier and more calm all-around. We are happier too. I wish we’d taken Milo to Derek 4 years ago when he joined our family! We will never own another dog that isn’t trained at Off-Leash as early as possible. Clara La Rosa

Dan is an amazing dog trainer!
He’s incredibly patient, kind, and truly passionate about what he does. My dog Nina absolutely loved working with him — and I saw a huge improvement in her behavior and confidence. Dan takes the time to understand each dog and tailors the training to fit their personality. You can tell he genuinely cares. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a professional, trustworthy, and all-around awesome trainer!

Booking with Off-Leash K9 Training was the best decision I have ever made. Derek, is an absolute rockstar! From the time I brought my 9 month old mini Golden Doodle for his visit to the very end, I felt at ease knowing that he would be in such great hands. Derek made sure to send me videos daily, didn't hesitate to respond to any/all of my texts throughout the day (annoying dog mom, i know), and made sure that even during the hottest days, my little fur baby was well taken care of. Since pick up post 1-week board and train, my little has been a happy but obedient snuggle bug, and one that I no longer am chasing around trying to pull my hair out.
Knowing that I can continue to use Derek as a resource in the coming weeks/months is also an incredible part of this program!
I highly, highly reccommend not only Off-Leash, but Derek as well. As the 6th pup from my family to become a part of the Off-Leash crew, I know that we will not look elsewhere as we continue to add to our growing families!

Derrick and his team at Off-Leash K9 Training are exceptional! I brought them a Rottweiler puppy and a two-year-old Boxer, and both returned fully trained with significantly improved behaviors. I wholeheartedly recommend their services!
