Megan is a God Send! We had a sweet dog, but worried about his confidence level and wanted him to be a good citizen with manners along with keeping him safe. Rocko learned so many valuable skills during his 2 week in house boarding sessions with Megan. He is a changed dog, he is so confident and well mannered now! We can take him anywhere off leash and he behaves so well. We are so impressed with her expertise and… Read more
Megan is a God Send! We had a sweet dog, but worried about his confidence level and wanted him to be a good citizen with manners along with keeping him safe. Rocko learned so many valuable skills during his 2 week in house boarding sessions with Megan. He is a changed dog, he is so confident and well mannered now! We can take him anywhere off leash and he behaves so well. We are so impressed with her expertise and caring nature that we already scheduled our other dog to have the same in house training, not only does she teach them how to have confidence and behave, she also loves on them and truly has her heart invested in her profession, don’t just hire “anyone” who says they know how to train, hire Megan! You won’t regret it! Read less

Picked up my dog from training ,today. He is so well behaved. He has gone from a wild little man to an obedient dog. Megan is excellent to work with, for both my dog and me! She helped me to learn and use his commands. My dog has learned so much! Highly recommend for any dog!

Megan was so great to work with! She did an amazing job with my 2 dogs. The progress they made in the 2 week board and train was incredible! You could tell she really cares about the dogs and takes great care of them while she has them. Their recall is amazing and they are the best gentlemen now. I highly recommend her!

Cali just finished her 2 week board and train with Megan, and she is truly an incredible trainer! When I dropped Cali off she had a lot of reactivity towards other dogs, people, and pretty much anything that moved due to her energetic curious nature. Now I’m able to go on a lot more fun adventures with Cali- stress free, which has opened up a bigger world for her and strengthened our bond together overall. Megan is a great communicator,… Read more

Now I’m able to go on a lot more fun adventures with Cali- stress free, which has opened up a bigger world for her and strengthened our bond together overall. Megan is a great communicator, super friendly, knowledgeable, and is dedicated to her work. She created such a fun environment for Cali to learn in, and I could tell my pup loved being there from the daily updates and videos. It was so nice to be able to see the progress she was making each day from afar. I highly recommend Off leash K9 and Megan! Read less

For anyone looking for a success story, this won’t be the review for you. This is, however, still a success story as much as it can be.

For anyone looking for a success story, this won’t be the review for you. This is, however, still a success story as much as it can be. I brought my dog Wynonna in for the 2 week board and train with Corey. She has a bit of a sordid past, she was a rescue and definitely came from a background of abuse. I was struggling with some infrequent dog reactivity and bad leash behavior and with her being a pit mix she is nothing if not stubborn so I was looking for some help working with her. I knew going in to this that E-collars would be used in training. On her first day gone, I got a call from Corey, which I knew immediately meant something bad. While working with her with the collar she had essentially freaked out, bit Corey in the arm and tried to escape their fenced in yard. He was very calm when speaking to me, he wasn’t mad or upset, he knew her reaction had come from a place of fear and not aggression. She has never bitten anyone before. We both agreed to let him keep working with her to see how she did. Corey and his wife introduced her to their own dogs who she did wonderfully with, basically adopting her as her own while she got comfortable being in their home. It was obvious she was not handling the e-collar well but Corey was being patient with her. He was always very open and communicative with me throughout the process. After about a week and a half there it became very obvious that there was simply no way to get her to train using the collar. She was becoming very stressed (not aggressive there was no more biting) but she would have full body trembling and panting. We spoke extensively about what made the most sense and it was agreed that neither Corey nor I wanted to continue to potentially traumatize her any further so I came and picked her up early and was given a full refund. Not all dogs are like her, obviously there are far more success stories here than not. But I wanted it to be known that even if it isn’t your dog will still get the best treatment possible. Corey cared about her as much as I did, and that was more important to me than having a trained dog. I am working with her now one on one with a trainer. And we are having to go very, very slowly with her. I would still whole heartedly recommend Off Leash K9 to anyone looking to train their dog. Read less
