What 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.

We just got our girl, Meadow, back from her two week Board and Train with Emma. We are finally able to enjoy a family walk with our dog that is no longer terrified and reactive to everything. She healed beautifully and allowed for us to walk at a comfortable and confident pace with minimal pulling.
Emma is a kind and caring trainer who communicated with us thoroughly during her time with Meadow. As the professional, she was able to best determine Meadows needs and successfully teach her to master simple commands. Emma was very transparent with her concerns of aggression and worked collaboratively with other trainers to best help Meadow build up her confidence and trust.
Meadow is only seven months old and has a long way to go, but in just two short weeks, she has already come so far! We are very appreciative of Emma’s work thus far and we look forward to the continued training and support from her.

We were at our wits end with our 2 1-year old German Shepherds, Luna and Zeus. They listened to commands when they felt like it, we couldn't walk them, they barked constantly at everyone and everything, and worse, they occasionally got into to fights with each other( one of which resulted in a costly vet bill).
So, we took them to Off Leash K9 for the 2 week boarding program and was assigned Colby as a trainer. The first days meeting did not go well and we left with low expectations. But Colby sent us pictures and videos of their progress everyday. When he sent us a video of him walking them calmly together- I was speechless!!!
I am beyond grateful to Colby and Off Leash K9. We left them with 2 out of control dogs and they gave us back 2 dogs we are now able to manage, resulting in a calmer household. I would wholeheartedly recommend this company. Ask for Colby- he's great!!!

Emma did an amazing job with our dog, Stevie! Stevie was a former stray and had extreme reactivity and greeter frustration with other dogs that we’d pass on leash. She also had issues being consistent with listening to commands and relaxing. We were shocked at how quickly Emma was able to get results with her.
What was really impressive was the daily communication, updates, and photos/ videos that Emma shared during the board and train AND the follow-up communication to help us out after we picked Stevie up again. Highly recommend Off Leash K9 board and train program.
