About Off Leash K9 Training Knoxville TN

Proudly bringing professional training to dogs of all breeds, all ages, and all sizes. We can help you and your pup get off on the right paw with AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Classes followed by Basic Obedience, or can grow even further with Advanced Obedience. We can assist in restoring some order within the household where undesirable behaviors have become a problem through our Aggression and Anxiety Management programs. We can help families find comfort with their dog through Emotional Support, or can help families deliver that comfort to others through Therapy Dog Development. Some dogs can even do a life-changing job for their person, and we can help with Service Dog training. We have a program for most training goals, budgets, and schedules!

What people have asked about this business.

why can't i access your site from canada- it says visitors from my country are forbidden??

I'm sorry, I'm not sure but thank you for bringing it to our attention, we will look into that. If you would like to know about packaging and pricing, feel free to give us a call.

Question on Google
How affordable is the aggressive board and train option with financing? Are the payments reasonable or are they outrageous?

Diane, you know this is not true. We have tried to help you and you have refused all help. You are upset because you tried to take advantage of us and do a chargeback on your credit cards. And you did not win that. If you persist, we will hit you with defamation of character charges. We will still honor our agreement to help you with Blu. But you need to follow our instructions and guidelines that we have given you for best success.

Community answer · Off Leash K9 Training Knoxville TN · 2025-09-21

We paid $3000 cash for the 2 week board and train program, I'm sure they will add financing to that cost. This was a total waste of money! Our dog learned nothing, without the FEAR of being shocked into submission, that he didn't previously know. Additionally, from our observation, during those two weeks, our dog was not properly cared for.

Question on Google
Is there training available for an emotional therapy dog?

Yes there is. That's the training that I got and am happy with the results

Question on Google
Can a trainer come to our home (between Kodak & Seymour) to assess what we need for our adorable, yet unruly 7mo Golden Lab Female Pup? We have an older (12yrs) Black Lab male who was NEVER this much effort and we are at a loss. :/

Give them a call. This is an awesome training team!

Community answer · Valerie Hopper · 2018-09-21

Give them a call, not sure about home visits but I highly recommend them

Question on Google
I want to ask about the animal rescue. We have a puppy who is husky, germansheperd, an wolf she is the sweetest . We can't keep her because of dander an allergies. Can you help us?

Please do not label your dog as a wolf. Even if you think they are, they would most likely be put down at any rescue because it is not safe to adopt out any part-wolf dog. Most people who are told their dog is a wolf believe it because they have the husky-look. Do more research into what wolf hybrids truly look like and make sure that is what you have for starters, and then move forward in finding a GSD or husky rescue in your area.

I rescued a 3 yr old female pit one yr ago. She was headed to be fought before I took her. I can't afford classes for her. Please, if you have suggestion for helping me to train her. She's so sweet, but over protective of me. Thank you

Off leash has financing that is very reasonable. Call one of the numbers on the site and they can give you more info. Everyone that has worked with us has been very helpful.

Question on Google
Did the lost dog, Bear, ever get found? I've been wondering, and worried.

Yes, but he had been hit by a car and passed on.

5/5

My experience with OLK9 start to finish was amazing. Kristen was wonderful at getting me set up and Morgan is a dog genius. After finishing training my dog is not only more enjoyable to be around for me but she seems more comfortable in her own skin. Could not recommend enough!

Business response

Thank you so much, Liz! We’re thrilled Kristen and Morgan gave you such a great experience and that your dog is happier and more comfortable. We’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to both of them. We appreciate your recommendation and are here if you need anything in the future.

We had an incredible experience with Knoxville Dog Trainers – Off Leash K9 Training, and especially with our trainer Ashley. Asher spent two weeks in their board-and-train program, and the difference coming home was immediately noticeable. Ashley took amazing care of him and clearly put a lot of time, patience, and intention into his training. He came back calmer, more focused, and confident, with a solid foundation on his basic commands (place, sit, down, come, off). Just as important, he learned how to slow down, listen, and work through distractions. The communication throughout his stay was excellent—we received regular updates and could tell Asher was not only learning, but genuinely enjoying the process. It was obvious he was treated with care and respect, not just run through commands. We couldn’t be happier with the results and are very grateful for the foundation Ashley and the Off Leash K9 team gave us to continue building on at home. Highly recommend to anyone serious about training their dog the right way.

Business response

Thank you so much for the wonderful review, Michael. We're thrilled Asher's two-week board-and-train with Ashley left him calmer, more focused, and confident, and we appreciate you highlighting the care, patience, and clear communication he received. We’ll share your kind words with Ashley and the entire Off Leash K9 team; feedback like yours means a lot and helps other pet owners feel confident in choosing training. If you ever need a refresher or support as you continue training at home, please reach out — we’re here to help.

Morgan did a 2 week board and train with our 7 month old St Bernard. She sent us videos and pictures each day showing his progress. Our jaws dropped each time we watched one of the videos. At the end of the 2 weeks she spent almost 2 hours giving us a lesson on what he’s learned and how to be consistent at home. We brought our 6 and 8 year olds with us and Morgan was great at explaining it all to them. I would 100% recommend her to anyone.

Business response

Thank you so much for trusting Morgan with your St. Bernard and for the glowing recommendation. We’re thrilled the daily photos and videos showed clear progress and that the two-hour family lesson left you confident to continue training at home. It’s wonderful Morgan could make the training clear and engaging for your 6- and 8-year-olds as well. We appreciate you sharing your experience and are here if you need further support.

We did the two week board and train for our sweet boy Moose and it was amazing! From the moment I did the initial phone consultation, to talking with our trainer Kinzie for the first time, I knew we were making the best decision for our boy. Kinzie took the absolute best care of Moose! I was seriously blown away every single time I got a video showing how well he was doing. We can’t thank Kinzie enough for all the amazing work she did with him and only wish we would have done this sooner!

Business response

Thank you so much for the wonderful review, Kayla! We’re thrilled Kinzie and the team provided such excellent care for Moose and that the videos showed his progress — you absolutely made a great decision. I’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to Kinzie; she’ll be so happy to hear them. If you ever need refreshers or anything else, we’re here and would love to work with Moose again.
