FirstBarkRobert at Off Leash K9 Training exceeded my expectations with my 11 month old miniature poodle! Ernie is following my commands quickly and consistently! I loved that Robert treated Ernie like a family member. He was positive and patient during our lesson at the end. I feel comfortable reaching out to him if I have any questions or concerns!!

Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
Do you offer water rescue training for Newfoundlands? Any suggestions of where to find a program locally? Thanks.
Hey there! Unfortunately, we do not offer water rescue training and am unsure if any local training companies do. Maybe check out "Pup n Iron", I know they do some specialty training. -Joe

Abby did such a great job with my sweet Fiona and I was amazed at how much my girl learned during their two weeks together. I especially appreciated the daily updates and truly feeling like I had a direct line of communication with Abby during the board and train so that I could ask any questions that came to mind. Even though Fiona is now home with me, I am thankful that I still have Abby in my corner checking in to see how she is adjusting to home life post-training. Not all trainers will continue to keep in touch after the training is over, but I love that OLK9 emphasizes that they are always here to help!

Can’t say enough great things about Offleashk9 and trainer Emma. Great program for pups and dogs of all ages. My 5 month old Doberman was in the board and train program with Emma and boy is he well behaved. We dealt with many common behavioral issues with large breed pups and Emma fixed them all not to mention his exceptional loose leash and off leash walking. She provided us photos and videos almost everyday and we are so grateful. Thank you Emma and Offleash!!!

Five stars all the way! We put our Cockapoo puppy waffles into the K9 off leash training program, and it was the best investment we’ve made. The trainer, Colby, was patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly skilled. Our pup learned excellent leash manners, impulse control, and grew so much in his overall confidence. We felt completely comfortable leaving him in his hands. Colby gave us regular updates and practical tools to succeed at home. Highly recommend to anyone looking for professional training!"
We decided to put our Mini Schnauzer Finn through the Board and Train program with Off Leash K9 Training. He would sit on command but recall was an issue, he didn’t hold any of his positions and didn’t heel or walk well on a leash. He also barked at other dogs and people.

We decided to put our Mini Schnauzer Finn through the Board and Train program with Off Leash K9 Training. He would sit on command but recall was an issue, he didn’t hold any of his positions and didn’t heel or walk well on a leash. He also barked at other dogs and people. Colby was our trainer and did an outstanding job training Finn. We got daily updates along with a video of what they worked on that day. The day we picked Finn up, Colby spent a considerable amount of time showing us what Finn could do, explained the commands and how to correct if Finn didn’t do what we asked. Finn came back a different dog. He walks well on a leash, doesn’t bark at other dogs and people, performs the commands given verbally or by hand signal and holds them until released. He’s more confident out in public. We are extremely happy with the results and glad that we put him through the course. Highly recommend Colby as a trainer.
