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.

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.

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

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!

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

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.

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.

Impressed and worth every cent. We were a bit skeptical about the services offered and the overall effectiveness when we started our research initially, but pleasantly surprised overall. Our puppy needed some major behavioral reinforcement help, and Kinzie with Off Leash delivered! Kinzie is a phenomenal trainer that we would highly recommend to anyone. Our fur boy is now well-behaved and we're able to take him along to public venues without fear of misbehavior, whereas before even a simple walk through the park would result in difficulty handling our fur boy. Kinzie was patient, kind, and strong-willed, helping to reinforce positive behavior and set our dog on a positive path that allows us now a much greater quality of life. While the 2 wk boarding period felt like a long time, the duration passed quickly with regular video and photo updates provided by Kinzie. Thank you Off Leash and Kinzie for your time, help, energy, and genuine care for our big fur boy!
We have a very energetic 8 month old vizsla who had limited focus and some annoying behaviors. We did the 2 week board and train with Kinzie as our trainer. She was awesome. Our wild child came home a new dog with great manners. Kinzie sent lots of videos so we could track our progress. Definitely worth the investment.
We sent our 1 year old doodle to Kenzi for two weeks and she came back a brand new dog! She seem more calm mannered and the commands she learned are great for communication between us and her! Kenzi was so kind and good to Sadie. Kept us updated every step of the way. Money well spent!
I have used two trainers and both have been fabulous! Ashley was amazing for early puppy training then Becky finished out our Irish setter at the 2 week board and trainer. She came home a different dog. Becky walked me through everything and has been so supportive even afterwards. I would definitely use them again for future dogs or advanced trainer for our setter.
