Kyra our seven month old German Shepherd had zero manners. Kyra would bite you, drag you everywhere when walking on a leash, dart in and out of the doors, jump on you and we could not take her anywhere. I also could not trust her with my 5yr old granddaughter. We chose the two week board and train and our trainer Maddy has given us back a brand new dog with corrections to all of it and provided us with the tools to continue working with Kyra so we do not fail her. Maddy also socialized her in public settings as well which was great. The difference is absolutely amazing and my granddaughter played with her for the first time yesterday! This has been a wonderful experience and it was worth ever penny.
My dog had a great experience with the board and train program. Her trainer Ashley was so kind and patient with her. We got great updates and pictures everyday. It was a little pricey but a great investment in our dog’s happiness as well as our family’s. Totally recommend.
After the training, our dogs are 100% improved. You can tell the trainers (Ashley) care and love the dogs when they have them. We highly recommend Off LeashK9 Training-Southern Delaware.

We are thrilled with Maddy and the training she has done with our pups. She was very detailed about what we should be doing going forward. We have her working with our second corgi this week for a board-and-train program, and our 5-year-old corgi will be doing lessons in the upcoming weeks. Overall, if you’re debating whether the board-and-train program is worth the money, just do it!! We are very pleased.
