Our experience with Dylan was remarkable. We were nervous to leave our dog with a stranger for two weeks but that feeling quickly went away when we met Dylan. He is friendly and down to earth. Our shepherd quickly trusted him and so did we! Dylan sent us progress updates with pictures and videos multiple times a day. Although our dog's advancement through skills was amazing, my favorite part of the videos was watching how happy our dog was with Dylan. After completing a challenging duration hold, our dog would run to Dylan for scratches and encouragement. Our German Shepherd absolutely loved working with him. The results are incredible! Our dog is focused, calm, and well behaved. The training session we had with Dylan at the completion of the board and train program was invaluable. Our dog owner skills were ameliorated and we left feeling confident that we could continue to practice the skills our dog learned. Dylan was able to answer every single one of our questions and helped us grow as trainers. Before the board and train, walks were a stressful experience. The leash pulling and aggression were too much to handle. Now we feel confident and walks are enjoyable! Thank you so much to Dylan for taking such great care of our dog and for everything you've taught her!!

The training was great. But their constant and continuous “requests” to be reviewed goes from beyond annoying to stalkerish

We brought our two-year Jasper to training for socialization, obedience, and aggression training. After nine weeks, we had a completely new dog. Although the training in and of itself was successful, the insight on the behaviors of Jasper (recognizing triggers for aggression, fear, happiness, focus, dominance, and other behaviors) were extremely insightful. Off Leash K9 Training gave us the tools to work with Jasper, but ultimately the effectiveness of training will be a direct result of how much effort you will give to your dog. The trainers were available at anytime through telephone, email, and text which was beneficial on two occasions. I would strongly recommend this facility for training.

We have been very happy since our pup completed the Board and Train program with Josh. He was very professional and took plenty of time with us to answer all of our questions. It’s apparent that he truly loves dogs from his care and treatment of her. We’re extremely pleased, as the training has made a huge difference in her behavior, even though she was only seven months old! Thanks again, Josh!
