Highly recommend Kaitlyn and off leash k9! We took Ginger our 4 month old Pomeranian to the puppy classes and Kaitlyn was amazing with her. Ginger took to her right away. We we're sure with her young age if she would learn much but Kaitlyn was patient with her and Ginger pickup up almost the everything she was taught.
We have adopted 4 Pomeranian's in the past but never a puppy and we were in over our heads with Ginger she was a ball of energy into everything and listen to nothing we learned as much from Kaitlyn as Ginger did! Thank you so much. We will all miss our weekly classes. We will be boarding Ginger and taking her back for more lessons when she is older.
Highly recommend taking your puppy for the puppy course they will learn a lot!!!

I can't speak more highly of the OLK9 folks! They did an extraordinary job with our two pups - both had behavioral quirks but the trainers gave us tips and tools to help and our two guys are now amazing. Thank you OLK9 for your enthusiasm, knowledge and patience! Thank you for giving our two rescues a better /freer life!

I had a mixed experience with this dog training program. My dog did come home with some new skills, but overall the results didn’t match the cost, especially for the main issue I brought up—her behavior on walks—which was still a problem after she returned home.
Communication and follow-up support were the biggest issues. While I understand the trainer had personal circumstances, responses were inconsistent and often required multiple messages. As a paying customer, it felt difficult to get consistent help after the program ended.
I did reach out to the owner for support and was later able to attend two follow-up classes with another trainer after driving over an hour, but my dog is still struggling with the same issues.
I also saw my original trainer in person after the program, and she clearly avoided interacting with me. On top of that, my dog came home with noticeable red marks around her neck from the collar, which was concerning.
Overall, there were some positives, but the lack of consistent communication, limited follow-up support, and unresolved behavior issues made this a disappointing experience.

It's actually been 2 years since I used K9 training. But I was ordering a collar for my guy and thought about how life changing it was to use them.
We have a rescue who was very reactive and loved chasing things, so any place with a squirrel or a bunny was a nightmare. He pulled like crazy on walks. And as a 65 lb AmStaff, was difficult to control.
Then we used K9 and WOW. We take him off leash now in the woods, and he will be very sad about it, but will avoid going after the squirrels if we tell him to stay. It is truly been such a blessing.
And this was even though we missed two classes! (I don't suggest missing two classes haha). Even shortened was effective and absolutely worth the money. Our trainer was Cristen. I'm not sure if she's still there, but if she is I absolutely recommend her!!!

The training that my dog received from start to finish was phenomenal! The trainer was a perfect fit. I was given daily updates, Photos, and videos. She reviewed each of the commands that she was teaching him with me beforehand. When I picked him up she demonstrated, and then let me practice before we went home. I highly recommend this company!
