Off Leash K9 Training Harrisburg

Our 1 year old Border Collie - Raven recently spent a week with Chris who went over her basics and prepared her for future therapy dog testing. Chris provided updates each day along with pics to help us understand what Raven was going through and how she was doing. We were able to ask questions along the way and we received timely responses. All this communication helped us feel more at ease about leaving our Raven with someone else. It was easy to see that Raven was in great hands and that she was enjoying her stay. Thank you Chris for providing all of us with a great experience and excellent customer service!

Our sweet, adorable labradoodle, Harley, had gradually turned into this two-year-old troubled terror! My husband and I were extremely devastated and embarrassed. How could two retired school teachers, who managed entire classrooms filled with children, be unable to control and manage one dog? On walks, Harley would bark, and growl viciously at our terrified neighbors. Visitors to our home would be assaulted as Harley continuously jumped up and barked at them. He repeatedly failed to listen to commands we had earlier trained him to obey. We had to keep our blinds closed during the day so Harley didn’t bark and fly full-force at the window for every passer-by and delivery person. His behavior eventually kept him, and us by and large, housebound and miserable. With very heavy hearts we were considering giving him up and admitting defeat as dog owners. As a last resort we decided to call Off Leash K9 Training. It was the best decision we could have made for Harley and for us! Our trainer, Sabina, was and is such an understanding and caring person. She listened carefully to ALL of our concerns. She reassured us that Harley needed the confident, structured training that she and Off Leash K9 Training could provide. It was difficult to say good-by to Harley for the two week boot camp, but Sabina eased our minds with daily texts and/or videos of Harley’s amazing progress. It was heartwarming to see our anti-social dog suddenly playing and training with Sabina’s other dogs. When we saw him riding in a kayak and walking unleashed in the mall, we couldn’t believe our eyes! At the turnover, Sabina worked with us for several hours showing us how to manage Harley’s behaviors. Harley has been back home with us for over a month. We practice his commands every day and are thrilled with Harley’s new normal. Neighborhood walks are delightfully uneventful. Visitors enter our home without fear of being assaulted. He is such a gentle, loving and obedient dog now. We have enjoyed taking Harley along on various trips and have even taken him with us on our pontoon boat! We touch base with Sabina whenever we have a question, but usually we are bragging to her about his fantastic behavior. She has become a good friend and mentor to all of us and we know she is always only a phone call or text message away. That fact is so very reassuring to both of us. This training program is outstanding! We wholeheartedly endorse and recommend Off Leash K9 Training Harrisburg to all our family and friends!

I have to say from the beginning I was highly skeptical, the cost was high and I never thought I would be one to spend that kind of money training a dog........fast forward to the end of her training and I think I would have paid more. The quality of the training April provided was amazing. We had constant daily updates and videos. She took my ultra hyper 5 month old German shepherd and turned her into a calm loving and obedient pup. My family simply cannot Express our gratitude for the professionalism and expertise that they brought to the table. They were worth every penny and more.
