Off Leash K9 Training Twin Cities

If you love your dog, we can’t think of better people to help train you and your puppy! People aren’t magical, but maybe Don is. We had a new Bernadoodle that was VERY skittish and we didn’t know what to do. Lindsay was great walking us through the training options. We chose the 3 week boarding program with Don. It exceeded our expectations and was worth every penny! Thank you Don and Maisy says thank you too!

I had an exceptional experience with Don as my dog trainer during a two-week board and train program. Don's straightforward approach and dedication to educating owners set the foundation for success. The daily video updates provided valuable insights into my dog's progress. Thanks to Don's training, my dog now responds swiftly to commands like sit and down, with a solid understanding of their meaning. Her recall has significantly improved, and Don's guidance has been instrumental in addressing my dogs reactivity. The positive impact extends beyond training sessions; I now enjoy walks without fear of unpredictable behavior around other dogs. Don's expertise has given me the confidence to handle various situations, making outdoor activities more enjoyable. After completing the two-week board and train, I initially found implementing Don's teachings a bit challenging. Recognizing the need for further guidance, I signed up for four additional lessons. These sessions have been incredibly helpful, ensuring that I not only understand but confidently apply the training in every situation. Don's ongoing support has been invaluable, reinforcing the positive changes and strengthening the bond between me and my dog. Overall, Don's training has not only transformed my dog's behavior but has also made our daily life more harmonious. I highly recommend Don for his professionalism, effective training methods, and the lasting positive changes he brings to both dogs and their owners.

I am absolutely thrilled with the results of the 2-week board and train with Becca! Literally, this has changed my life and relationship with my dog. Bernadette is a 2yr old Rottie/Mastiff mix, and is very strong. So much that her pulling on-lead to greet other dogs/people, stopping abruptly to sniff, or pursuing wildlife was causing so much pain in my elbows and shoulders. I did not enjoy our walks! After training with Becca, Bernie is infinitely more calm, heels like a champ, and actually chooses to walk calmly by my side even when not in heel! She is far less distracted, is attentive to me, and loving her life off-lead. Becca is by no stretch an expert trainer, and imparted so much knowledge to me during and after the training. Without hesitation, I enthusiastically recommend Becca and Off Leash K9 to anyone who wants to enjoy the all-too-short time we have with our best friends.

Don was incredible. My Rottie had socialization and aggression issues. By the end of the 3 week board and train, triggers were gone and he was much easier to manage in all aspects, it started with aggression towards Don and turned into a bond between those two that still impresses me. Becca, took him for a week and that relationship built immediately and that was impressive. It has been a brand new experience positively and can't wait to see how my pup grows moving forward. Thank you guys!

Abie is awesome! I already recommended Abie to a co worker after receiving my Australian Shepherd back the next day. This was the last straw before having to make a hard decision. We were in a life adjustment from a House to an Apartment in Downtown; which caused additional anxiety on my 1.5 yr old Aussie. We only used the stairs (10 floors) prior to training because he would bark and jump when the elevator doors would open. This caused many other difficulties to include walking my Australian shepherd around so many people and dogs in the city. After just two weeks of trainings, the next day we were able to use the elevator and also stopped three times on the way down, he did not bark one time! A complete 360. I am now able to walk him at the same park and he stays in “place” in the middle of the park with pups around us and i can hold conversation with others without his bark. After this training with Abie, I have the confidence to take him on longer interactive walks, give him “jobs”, be in the city and play with him at parks. This not only changed our daily lives but allows me to give him a healthier lifestyle. Truly thankful for this place and the follow ups I have received from Abie as well as all of the great recommendations on leashes and collars to use.
