Huge thank you to Off Leash and to Rikki more specifically for taking extra good care of our Biggie boy during his three week training program. Rikki instilled key commands to our boy that my husband and I continue to use everyday. He no longer pulls during our walks which was one of our biggest problems. We also appreciated the pictures and videos Rikki would send of our boy while he was away.

I had a highly reactive dog. I rescued her when she was a year old and I regretted it for the first couple of months. Our walks were stressful for both of us - she would constantly pull, needed to greet, run after and bark at every single dog we would pass on the street and in the park. She would bolt or attempt to bolt every time I opened my apartment door and it would be the same when she was in a car. I was told it would just take time and consistency with training but I was pushed over the edge when I brought her to a dog run one night and I couldn’t get her to come back to me after an hour. It was only after she tired herself out from running that I could get her back. I was either going to surrender her or send her to off leash training. I opted for the latter and it changed our lives. After a two week training camp with LiAndra, that first night back together she was off leash in Riverside Park walking next to me and coming back to me when called. And the bolting out of the apartment / car stopped. They gave me the foundation we both needed. Since then her recall continues to get better and better. Our walks are no longer stressful but are very enjoyable. She loves playing with other dogs and comes back to me when called. I can hardly believe it. Sending her to training was the best decision. Thank you LiAndra!

Cannot recommend enough. Especially Rikki! We had Rikki as our trainer and from the moment we signed up to bring our dog for the 2 week board and train, the experience was seamless. Not only were we a last minute add on, they were organized and sent thorough documentation and instructions prior for us to review so we were ready for drop off. Once I brought my dog, Rikki was great. She walked me though the property and where my dog would be staying. There was a schedule provided so I knew what he would be doing each day. Videos and pictures daily with updates which was incredible to see the progression. Watching Rikki train with my dog, I would not ask for another trainer. When I picked up my dog, Rikki was thorough with instructions on what we should be doing now at home. Everything was clear and also followed up with after through our text group just in case anything was missed. I can’t recommend Rikki and Off Leash K9 Training enough!

I can’t say enough amazing things about Off Leash and especially Rikki! My dog came back like a completely different pup — confident, focused, and so much more calm around distractions. It truly feels like magic. Rikki is absolutely incredible. She understood my dog’s needs right away and worked with such care, patience, and skill. The results blew me away. I feel like I finally have the relationship with my dog that I’ve always wanted. If you’re thinking about training — do it. This was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for my pup. Thank you, Rikki, for everything. You’re the best!!
