We took Luna, our 20-month-old Portuguese Water Dog for the 2-week dog boarding/training program with Dean at Off Leash K9 of Northern Virginia. We cannot be happier with the results.
We live in the District and wanted to take advantage of all the open spaces that are available to us without worrying about Luna running into the street. Walking was not always easy as she would pull a lot, and when folks came to our house Luna would jump up and mug them. She was basically an unruly child.
Long story short, Luna is now able to run when we go to the Capitol, chase a squirrel, or play with other dogs, yet return when summoned. Her quality of life has greatly improved with the additional freedom, and we can relax and better enjoy our time with her. With all of the distractions she is able to walk with us easily on a leash, and about 50% of the time we allow her to walk leash free with us. And her training to go ‘place’ when folks come to the house has made our place a whole lot easier to visit.
Off Leash isn’t cheap, but it is a great value. Having Luna obey our commands and just hang out with us is just great. Dean could not have been more understanding of our angst leaving our pup with him, he updated us daily, and was more than patient when we shared our various (somewhat irrational) concerns before dropping off Luna. He’s a great dog trainer and person.
We highly recommend Dean and Off Leash K-9. Read less

I cannot recommend Lily enough! She took our dog, Frida, for a two-week board-and-train program, and Frida has come back a completely changed dog in the absolute best way possible. From start to finish, Lily made us feel completely at ease. She went above and beyond by sending us daily updates on Frida’s activities, along with beautifully edited videos and photos so we could see her progress in real-time.

I cannot recommend Lily enough! She took our dog, Frida, for a two-week board-and-train program, and Frida has come back a completely changed dog in the absolute best way possible.
From start to finish, Lily made us feel completely at ease. She went above and beyond by sending us daily updates on Frida’s activities, along with beautifully edited videos and photos so we could see her progress in real-time. It was incredibly reassuring to see how much love, time, and care Lily was pouring into her every single day.
We are beyond thrilled with Frida's behavior since getting her back. The results speak for themselves, but it’s Lily’s genuine dedication and care that truly set her apart. If you are looking for a trainer who will treat your pup like family while delivering incredible results, Lily is the one!
Thank you so much, Lily! ❤️ Read less

I had a wonderful experience with OffLeash K9 NOVA and our trainer Mark. They were quick to get me into an ideal 2 week board and train program based on our availability. Mark sent daily video updates every evening and called to talk through my preferred approach to handling reactivity. His communication was great from start to end. Mark still makes sure to be a resource whenever I need help with my dogs training journey!! I have already recommended OffLeash… Read more

I couldn’t be happier with the experience we had with our dog trainer Briana. She was an excellent caretaker and treated our dog like her own. Her communication was always consistent, clear, and reassuring, which made the entire process stress-free. She did an amazing job training my high energy 1-year-old Lab. Walks are now so much easier—no more pulling or feeling like I’m being dragged around. The biggest improvement has been his behavior around other dogs; his reactivity is completely… Read more
