Happy Client Reviews
After two stressful years of pulling, barking, and ignoring us, we chose the DFW board and train program. The transformation shocked us. Our shepherd now heels calmly through busy trails, ignores doorbells, and settles on place while kids run around. The daily updates and clear homework made it easy to continue at home. Two months later, walks are enjoyable, guests relax, and we feel confident handling every situation.— Jessica R., Plano
Off Leash K9’s structure changed everything for our excitable doodle. He used to jump, drag us across parking lots, and explode when he saw dogs. The trainers taught communication, impulse control, and neutrality. We learned as much as he did during transfer sessions. Now he rides quietly in the car, lounges during patio brunches, and recalls off leash at the lake. Family life is calmer, safer, and way more fun.— Marcus T., Fort Worth
Our anxious rescue came home confident and predictable. Crate manners, thresholds, and place were game changers. The team was professional, transparent, and responsive to every question. Their videos and written plan kept us consistent. Week by week we see steadier behavior, smoother vet visits, and peaceful evenings. Worth every penny—would recommend to any busy DFW family. Forever grateful for this training experience.— Elena S., Frisco
