Rebekah is such an incredible trainer!!! Our dog stayed with her for the 2 week training program. When we picked him up, he was a well behaved dog who listened to us!!! Our training at the hand off was incredibly clear! We went away knowing exactly what to do in order for our dog to be successful at home! If that wasn’t enough, her commitment to communicate with us while she had him was exemplary! I had lots of questions, and she made me comfortable to ask any and all that I had! Our experience could not have been better. It was some of the best money we ever spent!!!

ā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļø 5/5 — Highly Recommend Off Leash K9 RVA & Brenna! I cannot say enough good things about Off Leash K9 RVA — especially Brenna! She worked with my dog Dito, a Newfoundland who used to be reactive toward literally anything that moved. Humans, dogs, cats, squirrels, birds… you name it, he’d lunge and pull toward it. Walks were stressful, outings were limited, and we always had to be on high alert. During his two-week board and train, Brenna kept us updated every single day with pictures, videos, and messages about what he worked on, how he did, and what progress he was making. It gave us so much peace of mind and made us feel included in every step of his journey. When we picked him up, he was a completely different guy — in the best way possible. Within 48 hours of being home, he encountered not one but two of his biggest trigger dogs, and he stayed calm, cool, and collected. No reactivity, no pulling… just a confident, steady boy who could finally enjoy the world around him. Dito has always been perfect to us, but now he’s even better. Life feels so much more open — we can go out, do more as a family, and actually enjoy our time together without stress. Brenna was kind, patient, incredibly knowledgeable, and truly invested in his success. If you’re on the fence, don’t be. Off Leash K9 RVA changed our lives, and Brenna is absolutely amazing. šŸ’›šŸ¾

🐾 Review for Austin - Exceptional Dog Trainer! 🐾 We are absolutely thrilled with the transformation our one-year-old English Lab, Hendrix, has undergone thanks to Austin's incredible work! Hendrix completed the two-week board and train camp, and the results have genuinely exceeded our expectations. A True Professional From the moment we first spoke with Austin, his professionalism and deep understanding of dog behavior were clear. He didn't just train Hendrix; he took the time to understand his personality, our specific challenges, and our goals for his behavior. Knowing our sweet but sometimes unruly pup was in such capable hands gave us peace of mind during the two weeks. The Board & Train Results Hendrix came back to us a different, yet still loving, dog. The difference in his focus and obedience is astounding. The foundation Austin built has given us the tools to manage him confidently in all situations. We saw immediate, drastic improvement in: - Leash Manners: No more pulling! Walks are now enjoyable and stress-free. - Recall: Hendrix's response to commands, especially 'come,' is reliable and immediate. - General Obedience: Commands like 'place,' 'sit,' and 'stay' are executed with precision. Our Continued Commitment As Austin emphasized, the training is a partnership. While the two-week camp worked miracles, we understand that maintaining the discipline and consistency he started is crucial. We are fully committed to reinforcing the commands and techniques Austin taught us during the transfer session. We look forward to a future where we can confidently take Hendrix anywhere, all thanks to the strong foundation established by Austin. If you have an English Lab (or any dog!) needing serious structure and reliable obedience, we cannot recommend Austin and his board and train program highly enough. It was an investment in our dog's quality of life and our peace of mind and Austin was just so easy to get along with/communicate with throughout this whole process. Thank you, Austin!

Bubba was a rescue who was extremely leash-reactive and failed previous training. Other than this one behavior, he is a wonderful dog! Rebekah told us at the beginning of training that this same sweet dog would be returned to us, but with manners. His turn around has been amazing…thank you Rebekah!

Had my five month old bull terrier spend two weeks with Austin in order to get some dedicated training. Austin kept me updated on progress through text messages, pictures, and short videos. Upon picking my dog up, Austin took time to run me through the commands my pup practiced which we've continued working on at home. My dog has also taken individual classes with Rebecca which have been great. I highly recommend Off Leash K9 for your dog training needs. They're responsive, personable, and care about what they do peraining to training.
