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!

We sent Shadow for a two week board and train. Her trainer, Claire, did an amazing job! She kept in…read moretouch with us daily, sent the best videos and pictures, and updated with what they worked on. She even sent some fun videos for our kids to see him playing, not just training. 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!

We used Skips help in training a Shiba we were having a dog aggression problem with. Seems she…read moremostly needed more strenuous exercise so she could settle down and pay attention. We had 8 Alaskan Malamutes that were all non-confrontational and couldn't have a 6 month 25lb. dog terrorizing them without an eventual problem. Skip came and immediately found her basic problem and dealt with it. After her first session she just wanted to go relax. He used a few different techniques over the next few visits and Skylar got calmer and calmer. We need Skips help again with a 8 month old pup who was very smart, learned quickly and has now become non-attentive, argumentative about commands most are age related but he pushes to the extreme with his disobedience and has become food possesive. We hope Skips services can help us again.

Had an ok boarding experience last year. But just took my dog back for 4 nights this week and I'm…read morevery disappointed. Took her out after paying and I'm quite sure that she had been holding it for hours first of all. Next, when I got her home, she drank 3 full bowls of water - so not sure when she had some last. A 3rd disappointment was that she's on allergy meds - I took them and explained to the owner that she got one per day in a pill pocket (also taken in with her). No meds were given AT ALL. Lastly, the groomer who checked me out couldn't have cared less whether she was cared for or not and had her in a tiny cage (she's 56 pounds). Afraid my days of boarding there are 2 and done.

She provided flexibility around our travel plans and work schedules. During each session, Ruth provided personalized insight and advice on training as well as knowledge of the breed. We are truly appreciative of her hard work and efforts and are thrilled with the results! We highly recommend her services based on her professionalism, knowledge, flexibility, and results. Please give her the opportunity to help you and your puppy/dog learn the necessary skills to bond in a safe, disciplined and playful way.

Working with Patrick has been such a game changer for us and for our pup, Bondi. In just a couple…read moreof hours of training, we saw big shifts in her focus, regulation, and our own confidence. It felt immediately practical and grounded, not overwhelming or overly rigid... and actually, fun! One of the biggest takeaways was learning how to use the growl/bah cue as a simple "focus on me" signal, paired with really big, enthusiastic praise when she listens or offers good behavior. That combination alone made a noticeable difference in how quickly she engages and settles. Patrick also gave us clear daily practices to work on, especially around reducing attention-seeking behaviors, managing front door and doorbell excitement, helping her place and settle, and most importantly supporting her adrenaline and impulse control. It all feels doable and structured without being stressful. On top of the training itself, Patrick was also incredibly helpful in guiding us through a diet transition for Bondi. That kind of whole-dog support really stood out because he clearly cares about Bondi's wellbeing -- not just obedience. Patrick is knowledgeable, calm, supportive, and really good at explaining the why behind what you're doing. We left sessions feeling empowered instead of confused, which says a lot. We're honestly thrilled with the progress we've already made and excited to keep building on it. If you're looking for a trainer who is thoughtful, effective, and genuinely invested in your dog's success and your relationship with them, we would absolutely recommend Patrick without hesitation.

Since we began training, Millie is now able to be left alone for 2+ hours. Before training, she would immediately begin to howl and panic. Patrick was able to assist in various other areas, such as pulling on the leash, jumping, attention-seeking behaviors, settling in public, separation anxiety, and other puppy tendencies. I highly recommend Bark Busters, as this training has given Millie the confidence to overcome various things.
