Hope for EVERY dog… ANY BREED, ANY AGE, and ANY SIZE. We don’t discriminate, and … German Shepherds, Dobermans, and Pit bulls are a few of our favorite breeds. Have an aggressive dog that no one else could help you with? Have a shy dog that bites out of fear? Have a reactive dog that can’t walk down a street by another dog without going crazy? Have a hyperactive dog that can’t seem to focus on anything? Been kicked out of other obedience classes? Been told your dog is not trainable? Well, we can help! THAT is the difference. WE ARE THE LAST TRAINERS YOU WILL NEED. Dogs are never too old, fat, slow, or hyper to learn using our methods. Aggressive and dogs with confidence issues are our specialty.

What people have asked about this business.
Hello we are getting our German Shepherd in January and I'm looking into and have been referred by several people to you. Love the videos and wondering what type of collar is used during the training.
We use an electronic collar based off tens unit technology. We use ecollar technologies.

Took my dog Rowan for dog training here. I was super scared because Rowan is a very skittish dog and that I would accidentally reinforce her skittish behavior. From my initial call I knew this was the place for me and Rowan! They genuinely care about every dog that comes in and they eased my mind about any worries I had. I signed up that day! Bradley was AMAZING with Rowan and so patient and kind with her! Just finished my last lesson and I can say confidently that my dog has changed for the better! She has grown in her confidence and obedience!

This is the best puppy and adult dog training! We have a nine month old Labradoodle puppy. We started using other training techniques as soon as we brought her home with fairly good results. We started taking her to OLK9 five weeks ago and we could not be more pleased. We were initially skeptical because of the misunderstood stigma of electronic collar training. This NOT electric shock, but rather the use of vibration on the neck to grab the dog's attention. Our trainer, Hannah, is an especially effective E-Collar trainer on best use of the E-Collar training techniques. The Wilmington OLK9 trainers train the owner on how to get effective and lasing results. Both the dog and owner benefit from this training. We are very thankful that we found OLK9 here to help us take our little Brandi to a consistently and happily obey our commands. We also understand that the OLK9 training is also most effective in dealing with canine behavior problems.

I have a 7 yr old pit lab mix that I was scared to take anywhere. He was NOT dog friendly at all- would lunge, snarl, bark, and try to attack any dog he saw. I didn't know how to control him. He was a total sweetheart with people, but I just didn't trust him around dogs amd didn't trust that I could control him. After a very scary situation with another dog, Diesel was on permanent house arrest. We contacted Off Leash K9 and were paired up with Bradley.
I cannot say enough good things about Off Leash and our trainer Bradley. From the first lesson to the last, Bradley was patient, attentive, professional, and always prepared. He explained every step and offered guidance where needed, and always celebrated meeting goals. He not only taught Diesel how to be a perfect gentleman on Leash and in public, but he trained me as well! He helped me build my confidence as an owner and learn how to be calm, assertive, and prepared for any situation. He gave me the tools to set Diesel up for success and be the leader in every new challenge that came our way. I also have to give him extra credit for being so willing to work with our schedules and being mindful that I was in my third trimester while working together.
In just a few months, I went from having a dog that would almost pull me over at the sight of another dog, to a perfect gentleman that can almost 100% ignore other dogs in public. This would not have been possible if not for Bradley. Thanks to him, I can have our "old" lifestyle back filled with parks and walks and trips to dog friendly stores.
If you are debating on calling them, stop hesitating and go for it! It is worth every last penny and I would go to Off Leash again without question!
(Photos from last session. This is Diesel after training with offleash heal and place- something I didn't think he would ever be able to do)

Bradley was awesome to work with. We have a very energetic and stubborn German shepherd. He really bonded with Barrick and we are very pleased with the results.
