What people have asked about this business.
Do you offer water rescue training for Newfoundlands?
Any suggestions of where to find a program locally?
Thanks.
Hey there! Unfortunately, we do not offer water rescue training and am unsure if any local training companies do. Maybe check out "Pup n Iron", I know they do some specialty training.

Our 5 year old Retriever has changed in the course of 2 weeks, unbelievable. It has taken 5 years of struggling with walks, recall and door manners but in this short time Mari worked a level of magic I didn’t think was possible.
Our 10 month old puppy was a blank slate and Mari laid a foundation that will last a lifetime.
Thank you for everything you all did!

Abby did great with our Labrador Retriever. Our dog Stephanie went in, only knowing how to sit .. Our girl came out, much more confident, being able to heel, lay, come, and more, even with distractions! Now we can take her out without worrying about her running away or not listening. Thanks Abby!

We just picked up our puppy Lola from her two weeks with Emma. We are really pleased with the results! We are amazed at how well she knows her commands and all of the progress she has made. Emma did an excellent job with Lola. Emma has a lot of patience and a lot of love for the pets she trains. Emma also did an excellent job communicating with us during those two weeks. We received daily updates - sometimes multiple updates a day. She also sent us fun videos of Lola’s progress which we really loved! Highly recommend Emma!

Highly recommend the 2 week board and train, specifically with Colby!! I did a ton of research about dog trainers, and after watching the Off Leash K9 YouTube videos, I filled out the interest form and got a call less than 30 minutes later to talk about my dog and our goals to find the best fit for us! We signed up that night!
I dropped off my 11 month old Golden Retriever who is a sweet boy, but was a challenge with leash pulling, would get very easily distracted, and was not the best with the listening and duration of commands. I picked up the happiest, sweetest boy who is confident when responding to commands, and truly understands what I’m asking from him!
Colby was absolutely incredible. He kept me updated with pictures and videos every single night, along with explanations of goals/processes so that I understood the training as well! You could tell in every video that Wrigley was happy, genuinely having fun, and was being so well taken care of.
On pick up day, Colby went over all the tools/ training and explained how to implement it at home. My favorite part was seeing how much they had bonded and how much Wrigley loved Colby! He also checked in the next morning to see how Wrigley was doing back home! We are already having so much fun and his transformation is incredible.
Thank you so much to Colby and Off Leash K9 for treating Wrigley like your own!

Fantastic Training Experience with Jordon at K9!
We couldn’t be happier with the training our 1.5-year-old husky received with Jordon at K9. Our husky is a little mischievous and full of energy, but Jordon’s calm demeanor and expertise made all the difference. He not only trained our dog with patience and care but also made sure to tailor his approach to meet our husky's unique personality.
Throughout the process, Jordon was incredibly helpful, explaining each step and providing us with useful tips to continue the training at home. We could see the positive changes in our dog’s behavior almost immediately.
We are so grateful for the care and attention Jordon gave our dog and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for top-notch training. Thank you, Jordon, for all your hard work!
