FirstBarkJust a few sessions in and I already can see SO much of a difference in Forrest! I would absolutely recommend OLK9 to anyone. Rosalie is AMAZING. She’s incredible at what she does and you can tell she pours her heart into each session.

Above and beyond happy with the results of this program. I couldn’t walk my dog now she doesn’t even need a leash. She wouldn’t come inside when I called her now all I have to say is come and she runs to me my husband said the program was worth for that alone. It was a great bonding experience with the dog as well. She’s happier in happier. Thanks !
Our dog Petey completed training with the program two years ago and we needed help with a new behavior after moving into a new home. Evan and his team were fantastic in helping us correct our issue. They were thorough and knowledgeable. We are so appreciative of the work they have done with our boy Petey. We would highly recommend their service to anyone looking for dog training at any level.

Our dog Petey recently completed his private training sessions and we had a positive experience with each of the trainers we encountered. We especially appreciated Cassie and all of the time she spent with us. She has a gift with dogs and we are so grateful for the tips and tricks she shared with us. Petey is a large, strong dog and I wasn't able to handle him on walks prior to training. Now we go for daily family strolls and are able to enjoy our time out with him - he is happier and we are too! This training changed our lives.
Our 10 month old bernedoodle, Donnie, went to a two week board and train with Deanna. He came back to us a completely different dog! We could not recommend this program enough. I wish I could give more stars!! Deanna sent videos each day to keep us informed of Donnie’s progress… thank you so much for working with him!
