First of all, we love Justine. She is the best. She did a good job with our boy. He can be a handful. Unfortuneately, he still has that reactivity to people. That is something that we don't seem to be able to stop. We have to be very careful if other people are around. You just don't know when he will go off.

This is the second time we’ve used off leash k9 training, our shepherd mix was the first one to go, and then we sent our little corgi since our condo is in a very dog friendly area, so we wanted to be able to bring both. Justine definitely boosts their confidence and manners. She even got moose to do stairs, which definitely helps out because I was carrying him up and down. Definitely worth the money.

I had the best experience. High energy Doberman. I was afraid to take him anywhere. Carissa was amazing. She’s no nonsense but has a heart of gold. She wants your dog to be successful. Provides updates and a great handover instruction to keep the training successful. To this day I can ask questions on any behavior I’m concerned with. I cannot recommend this program enough.

I had heard about this training program when my Rottie and I were approached by a woman in Petsmart who wanted to pet my dog. Our conversation led into leashes, collars, choke collars etc when she mentioned this Off Leash K9 training program. She raved about it and told me that not only had their dog attended, but she had purchased the classes for her son's dog as well. I was skeptical, and even waited a few months before calling. I finally pulled the trigger because our dog was reaching full-grown size and was starting to realize her own size! We booked the Basic Obedience package and couldn't be more impressed with the results! The 1-on-1 hour long classes not only taught our dog, but focused on teaching us how to implement the commands as well. When we left class each week, we had a new command (that we had just spent the last hour working on with the trainer) along with tips and ideas for ways to continue training throughout the week. Our dog now responds to come, sit, down, place and heel. The mental stimulation of training for 20 min per day has eliminated her extra "energy" and has made our household less chaotic. Would definitely recommend this program over and over again!

We had a great experience with our young German shepherd rescue that needed some training. Sam was outstanding, friendly, professional and very knowledgeable. Our dog was very skittish with new people and our trainer was always patient while still able to provide results when working with us. I highly recommend Sam as she has been a valuable resource beyond our initial training sessions.
