    What People Are Saying

    LeeAnn was a wonderful trainer for our baby girl Rosie. We were very nervous/anxious and worried pet parents when we made the decision to leave Rosie for a two week board and train but LeeAnn put all our worries out of the way. She is kind and gentle and extraordinarily patient with our sensitive (and very stubborn) rescue dog! Rosie was already a calm pup with good manners most of the time, but we went to k9 off leash to help with her recall when off leash as well as her on leash manners and to polish up her obedience. Rosie came back to us with an excellent grasp of her obedience, no more leash pulling at all and essentially perfect off leash recall. We specifically were worried about the negative feedback of the e-collar effecting Rosie’s sensitive personality, and although she doesn’t like getting the gentle feedback taps- she is getting more and more used to wearing her collar all the time and is starting to realize that we will hold her accountable to listen and follow through with her commands! We don’t ask as much from her as LeeAnn did every day! We are thankful for LeeAnn’s patience and hard work with our stubborn sweet girl! Rosie is doing great and we are practicing every day.

    I have nothing but good things to say about this whole experience. My dog went in anxious, reactive and with a huge stubborn streak, and came out confident and obedient. She has started to really learn impulse control and corrects herself before we have to. Walks used to be a nightmare because she would pull so hard. Now she walks right next to us. I feel so happy that I can share my life even more with my pup. Our trainer was LeeAnn, and I genuinely am forever grateful for her. Not only did she help my baby be more confident and trust us more, but we could genuinely tell she cared about our dog. LeeAnn was incredibly sweet and patient with our Nuggy, and never failed to give us the BEST report cards, pictures, and feedback. There was never a moment where I felt like my dog wasn’t being cared for and loved properly. During pick up, when we were learning the commands, LeeAnn was incredibly helpful and patient with us too. Even now, we can reach out to her whenever we have doubts or want to make sure we are doing something correctly. At first, I was worried that the result wouldn’t be worth the price, but it is SO WORTH IT. I would have never been able to train her the way she is now and I am so grateful that my girl is confident and is forming a trust bond with me. The entire family was concerned she might come back and not be her silly goofy self anymore, but we couldn’t have been more wrong. She is, in many ways, able to be even more goofy and silly. We are planning on getting a second puppy in the future, and are already planning to specifically request LeeAnn. Forever grateful for how kind she has been to us and our pup. So happy with my experience with OLK9, but more importantly with LeeAnn. My girl Nuggy has never been more full of life!!

    I left my 1 year old pup Ace with LeeAnn for two weeks of training. I received daily emails including pictures, a video, and notes of everything ace was doing and how he was doing it! She always asked if she could give him something other than food , ex; pumpkin for loose stools, pup cup for a reward :) She showed me everything that was taught and how to maintain it in daily life within 3 hours of Aces pickup. Ace would jump, bark, chew, not listen to commands etc. When he got back I continued to take him on our daily walk, and to parks where people, dogs, and SQUIRRELS would be passing by. He has learned to not build up so much excitement on things he cannot do like going up to people and possibly jumping on them, meeting dogs and going too crazy. He stopped chewing furniture, I love this because he now knows how to relax and he given attention when oriented, instead of asking for it by wrecking the house. I myself couldn’t train Ace, but I can keep up the training he was taught which everyone needs to know how to do. it’s not a 2 week thing then done. But he has shown massive improvement to the entire family and everyone is so proud of him😊 Family before me gave Ace up and wanted him to go to the pound before I got him because he was “too much.” I really love him and spent the money to give him the best training needed for him and myself. I have no regrets and i’m very fulfilled with everything Ace has learned.
