Our trainer, Linsey, was absolutely amazing!! She was extremely knowledgeable and friendly! She was patient and thorough in helping us to understand how to continue Maggie’s training after her 2 weeks were up and was there for us with any questions or advice we needed during and afterward. She kept us updated daily with text messages about their daily lessons, and even sent videos of their trainings, along with lots of pictures! It was easy to see that this was… Read more

She kept us updated daily with text messages about their daily lessons, and even sent videos of their trainings, along with lots of pictures!
It was easy to see that this was not just a job, but a way of life for Linsey. We’re so grateful to have found Off Leash K9!
I would highly recommend this facility, and especially Linsey! Read less

We had the absolute best experience with K9 Training and our dog trainers, and would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking training for their puppy! They worked with our Westie, Ollie, and the results have been incredible. Not only did they help with training and behavior, but they also took the time to explain why certain techniques work.

We had the absolute best experience with K9 Training and our dog trainers, and would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking training for their puppy!

They made sure we understood how to continue training and working with Ollie at home, which gave us so much confidence.
The entire staff was very patient, knowledgeable, and truly cares about both Ollie and me. Ollie is more confident and has learned important behaviors that will make him a happier puppy. Most importantly, their guidance allows me to continue reinforcing what I’ve learned and teaching Ollie important commands as he grows out of his puppy stage and into a well-trained dog.
We’re beyond grateful. Thank you, K9 Training! Read less

My sweet 3 year old ESS Dearie has been home a month now from her 2-week training stay with Corey at Off Leash K9 in Frankfort, Delaware. After an on-premise meeting and opportunity to watch some training, I couldn't wait to sign Dearie up. I asked for Corey as her trainer after watching him go through training routines with another dog. While waiting for her 2 weeks to start, I felt I needed to let Corey know the issues that… Read more
My sweet 3 year old ESS Dearie has been home a month now from her 2-week training stay with Corey at Off Leash K9 in Frankfort, Delaware. After an on-premise meeting and opportunity to watch some training, I couldn't wait to sign Dearie up. I asked for Corey as her trainer after watching him go through training routines with another dog. While waiting for her 2 weeks to start, I felt I needed to let Corey know the issues that I was having. I listed everything in a email with all of my concerns. The day I dropped her off, I didn't cry and I wasn't sad because I felt that at the end of these 2 weeks there would be a huge change in her behavior. She jumped, pulled, hated cars, bikes and unicycles and woke up everyday between 6:00 and 6:30 a.m... I could see too many years of constantly saying "no off down no off down" that our relationship might not be an easy one. The nightly reports from Corey and the pictures and videos showed so much progress. I was excitedly sharing the videos with everybody. They were all very impressed with her progress. At the end of the two weeks, it became my turn to go to boot camp to learn how to effectively follow the commands that Corey had been teaching her.
She is home now and every day. I thank Corey for the beautiful job that he did. She is calm and I can walk her on the street knowing that the commands he taught her are ready to be practiced every day with a huge reward of ball playing on the beach.
I am so grateful to have found the team at Off-Leash, K9 and Corey. Dearie is so happy and we're ready to spend years and years together.
And yes .. she still gets up in the 6:00 hour!!
💖Many many thanks Corey!

We sent out 6 month old cockapoo for 2 weeks board and train. Amazing experience since we have a sassy pup. Erica was amazing/ friendly and so patient with teaching Cora and us! Great with keeping in contact and updating us with pictures and videos (our favorite part) Would 10/10 recommend and would return!

I ABSOLUTELY am 100% happy with our results! Off leash k9 training southern Delaware’s Maddy is AMAZING. I could walk my 140lb Great Dane by myself without a pinch collar or ANY pulling and he stayed right by my side (even with a dog in a fenced yard barking at him). I couldn’t be happier. If you have any reservations about boarding your dog and having them train your fur baby, DON’T hesitate! It is completely worth it!!
