We were lucky enough to have Marcy work with our 1.5 year old Frenchie, Sam. She was so patient and professional right from the first meeting. Marcy and Sam spent 2 weeks together. Prior to working with her, Sam was displaying signs of aggression toward other dogs and some people, he did not listen to commands, and walking him was nearly impossible because of how hard he pulled on the leash. When we got Sam back he was capable of… Read more
We were lucky enough to have Marcy work with our 1.5 year old Frenchie, Sam. She was so patient and professional right from the first meeting. Marcy and Sam spent 2 weeks together. Prior to working with her, Sam was displaying signs of aggression toward other dogs and some people, he did not listen to commands, and walking him was nearly impossible because of how hard he pulled on the leash. When we got Sam back he was capable of sit, come, place, down, and heel. The heel has been a game changer. We walk 2-3 times a day now and he just stays at my side. His behavior has improved and we got clear instructions for how to manage his training plan going forward. If you want your dog to be obedient and more importantly, safe, take them here. 5/5 stars.

Cannot say enough great things about our experience with Travis. Millie spent two weeks in the board and train program and she came out an entirely different dog. She was a special case having had high stress and low confidence from earlier in her development before we got her. Travis was able to work Millie through all of her anxieties, teach her to love the car and exploring new places, build her confidence up, all while teaching her the new… Read more
Cannot say enough great things about our experience with Travis. Millie spent two weeks in the board and train program and she came out an entirely different dog. She was a special case having had high stress and low confidence from earlier in her development before we got her. Travis was able to work Millie through all of her anxieties, teach her to love the car and exploring new places, build her confidence up, all while teaching her the new commands they offer which she is very responsive to! Travis is great about keeping you in the loop with progress updates so you can see your furry family member and both Travis and Marcy took Millie into their home as if she was their own. My wife and I are so glad we made the decision to send her here and will definitely be recommending to others! Read less

HIGHLY recommend. We sent our 8 month old pup Winston to the 2 week board and train with trainer Travis. Prior to the training our pup was very hard to manage on leash, nervous peed inside, very anxious and would not go through any doors. Travis was extremely patient and went at Winston’s pace and we went home with a brand new pup! Winston came home with so much confidence. He can now go through doors with ease. He only… Read more
HIGHLY recommend. We sent our 8 month old pup Winston to the 2 week board and train with trainer Travis. Prior to the training our pup was very hard to manage on leash, nervous peed inside, very anxious and would not go through any doors. Travis was extremely patient and went at Winston’s pace and we went home with a brand new pup! Winston came home with so much confidence. He can now go through doors with ease. He only pulls on leash when he is excited about something. He can even be trusted off leash which we thought would be super hard to accomplish due to his high anxiety. We got many updates and communication was great. You could really tell that Travis cared so much about our pup and made sure that we had no questions going home. Off leash k9 is the perfect place to send your dog for training and you can be confident that they are safe, having fun, loved and learning so much! Read less

We sent our one year old golden retriever for a two week board and train with Austin and we couldn’t have been happier with the results. Austin did a great job teaching Ollie the foundation he needed for training and also taught us everything we needed to know to continue the work after the board and train was over. There was great communication between the trainer and ourselves during Ollie’s stay with daily updates on everything he was learning and… Read more

Marcy was great and easy to work with. We sent our 5.5 month old puppy for the two week board and train. It's obviously hard to send your pup away, but we got great updates on not only her training progress, but also all the fun she was having. We were worried she wouldn't want to leave Marcy to come home! Having a solid base with her training has made it so much more enjoyable to continue working with her… Read more
