She's turned what used to be a chore for us into time we look forward to spending with our dog. Not only has Emma trained Pete to an outstanding base level (and beyond) of training in all environments, she's also given us the tools and enabled us to continue his training. Her training has enriched both our dog's life and our own.

Emma worked with my corgi, Roo, who began to show some resource guarding with my senior beagle. I…read moream a very protective dog mom, so giving my trust to someone in this way was hard. However, Emma makes you feel so comfortable with the process and explains everything you need to know. During the pick-up sessions, she would send me videos of her working with Roo, which not only calmed my nerves, but also showed her progress throughout the process. Once we began the in home sessions, Emma took the time to ensure my husband and I understand the ins and outs of commands for Roo and gave us the confidence we needed to be successful for Roo. I cannot recommend her or Left Turn enough. We are so grateful for her working with our slightly difficult pup and teaching us all we needed to know as well. I wish everyone could hire her for their training needs!

I can't say enough good things about Off Leash K9 Training! Our trainer, Lindsey, was incredibly…read moreknowledgeable and made the entire process fun and engaging for both me and my pup, Ashe. Ashe at 6 months of age can be a bit of a handful , but Lindsey took the time to understand his behavior and tailored the training to his needs. After just two weeks, we noticed Ashe's confidence soar. Ashe is now much better behaved at the park, and he's responding wonderfully to commands like "sit," "place," "heel," and "come." This is the second dog I put through Off Leash K9 Training, and they truly help build trust between you and your pup. It allows you to take your pup into the world and enjoy life rather than sitting at home alone. I also love how Lindsey emphasizes the importance of consistency and makes sure we're practicing the right way at home. I feel so much more confident as a dog owner, and Ashe seems happier too! I highly recommend Off Leash K9 Training of Charlotte to anyone looking to strengthen the bond with their dog and improve both their quality of life and behavior!

She edited her videos so we could see a lot of what they worked on each day. Claire really understood Shadow and his needs. At pick up, she did a great job explaining everything to us, guiding us on how to follow through at home, and loving on Shadow one last time. You could tell he was sad to leave her. Claire was so encouraging and loving towards him. Shadow's been home less than a week and because of Claire, he is behaving so much better. He's been able to off leash and not jump on people he's greeting. Thank you so much Claire and Off Leash K9 Charlotte!
