Off Leash K9 Training , Lehigh Valley provides professional dog training in Allentown and throughout the greater Lehigh Valley. We specialize in transforming family pets into confident, well-behaved, and reliable off-leash dogs through board & train programs, private lessons, puppy development, and reactivity/aggression rehab.
We don’t use obedience to suppress issues. We fix behavior first, build confidence, and teach dogs how to think and make better decisions. This creates calm, stable dogs that can enjoy freedom at home and in public.
We proudly train all breeds, ages, and temperaments. We also serve Northeastern PA through Scranton and Southeastern PA through Bucks County. Trusted by families across Allentown, Bethlehem, and Easton.

Arya completed the two week Board and Train. She has improved immensely. Arya loved her trainer, Rosalie. Getting daily updates was an added bonus. It was hard not to have her with us for two weeks, but her progress was worth it. It was nice seeing the videos to see how she was doing and that she was learning so much. Arya is a much more obedient dog, and we are grateful for the help. UPDATE: It's been three weeks since Arya finished her training. The picture below is from today. She is completely off leash in our side yard taking a walk. She is happier and I am more confident. Thank you Rosalie.

Angela was the absolute best!! We did the aggressive class with my Frenchie and she was definitely a challenge, Angela never once gave up on her! We fought till the end and we did it!!! The confidence this class gave me alone to actually take her out on a walk was worth every penny! Highly recommend!

We used board and train for our young dog while we went on vacation. We enjoyed knowing our dog was well taken care of by the trainer. She came home better than when we left her. The trainer was amazing and stayed in contact with multiple messages. I would recommend OLK9 to any person who recently added a new pet! Willow loved the attention she got and loves being off leash!

This is our second time using OLK9 and we can’t say enough good things. Trainer Angela exceeded our expectations! She trained our border collie Laney during her two week board and train. Her communication with us was exceptional and she provided multiple daily check ins and videos of Laney’s progress. Laney came back to us a completely different dog (in the best way possible). Her training strengthened our bond with Laney and we are forever grateful!
