We dropped our dog off for the two week board and train. Jessica was very professional and informative and was able to answer all our questions. Throughout the training Jessica kept up us to date with our dogs progress via texts and videos. This is our second dog with off leash k9, we would happily recommend for others.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Off Leash K9 Training, thanks to Jessica Dillion! This was our second time using the a board and train program, and Jessica’s exceptional communication made the process smooth and reassuring. She provided daily updates on our dog Zeus, including videos that showed his progress along with detailed explanations of the commands he was learning. Jessica not only ensured Zeus was being trained properly but also gave us peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. Her professionalism, dedication, and clear passion for what she does truly set her apart. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable and caring trainer, we highly recommend Jessica!

Few things before you think of using this company. 1. If you are the person (and you know who you are) who goes into the vets office and you argue and tell them why you know better and they are wrong, dont use this company. If you know better why are you asking them for help? 2. If you dont know your dog, and understand them, then you have no way of helping the animal. You must be in tune with your dog and understand their behavior. 3. Actually be honest and listen to what they tell you to do or not do (even if you "know better"). 4. Dont sugar coat your dogs issues. I did the 2 week boarding and training with Ian. From the time i met him I knew he knew what he was talking about. 24 years dealing with military and civilian working dogs (not as a handler but a patrolman) he was already assessing my dog walking through the door and told me what his behaviors were at home just from a 2 min observation. I trained my dog on basic commands but wanted fine tuning. Thats where Off Leash came in. I saw the reviews about heavy use of an electric collar. Dont be fooled that they are not a reward based device, they are. All you are doing is using them as an attention getter and praising or giving a treat after the action is complied with. YOU DONT HURT THE DOG. Also peopke say the dog comes back distressed or burnt out ect. That is not the case. Yes mine was tired from living in a strangers house and training for 2 weeks, however when i got him he was not the same dog. At 1 year old he was no longer acting like an imature puppy, he was acting like an adult dog. So the jumping around and pointless energy he now is obedient and mellow. He still gets all excited when were in "play mode". So no you will not get back the dog you dropped off. I never saw a video where my dog was scared or hesitant with the handler and even on pick up day still joyfully engaged the handler. Your animal will be safe and taken care of. With all that said, if your not the "i know it all" and are honest, your money will be well spent.
Jessica was absolutely phenomenal! Her communication and updates were better than we were anticipating. She sent us photos and videos of all the progress he was making over the two weeks and he has come home a different dog. Would do it again.
Mandy is the best! My puppy learned so many critical skills in just two weeks. I highly recommend sending your dog to the board and train program!
