Mansfield
Dog Training
From Walnut Creek to Old Town Mansfield, from South Pointe to Highpoint and The Reserve — Justin Rie and the Off Leash K9 Training Texas team deliver world-class obedience, board & train, and behavior modification to Mansfield families. 10,000+ dogs trained across DFW since 2013.
Does Off Leash K9 DFW train dogs in Mansfield?
Yes. Off Leash K9 Training Texas serves Mansfield, Texas with three options: in-home private lessons (we come to your home in Walnut Creek, Old Town Mansfield, South Pointe, Highpoint, The Reserve, or anywhere across Mansfield ISD), board & train (your dog stays at our Lewisville facility for 2–4 weeks and graduates 100% off-leash), and aggression behavior modification for reactive and fearful dogs.
Our Mansfield service is led by Justin Rie, a United States Marine Corps veteran and Master Trainer with 15+ years of experience. Same world-class training that’s earned 557+ five-star reviews across DFW — delivered directly to Mansfield families.
Dog Training Built for Mansfield Families
Mansfield is one of DFW’s most family-focused suburbs — and Mansfield families deserve dog training that matches the standard of everything else in their lives.
With a population approaching 80,000 and a top-rated school district, Mansfield is the kind of suburb where standards are high — and dog training is no exception. Walnut Creek Country Club families. Old Town Mansfield households with young kids and family dogs. South Pointe and Highpoint owners with high-drive breeds. The Reserve residents who want the polished, mannered dog that matches the home.
Most of the “trainers” serving Mansfield are class-based franchises that meet in parking lots and offer generic six-week obedience packages. We’re different. Off Leash K9 Training Texas is led by Justin Rie, a USMC veteran (Forward Observer, Operation Enduring Freedom) and Master Dog Trainer. He’s personally trained 10,000+ dogs and certified 100+ trainers across the Off Leash K9 network. When you bring your Mansfield dog into our program, you’re getting the same caliber of training trusted by military and law enforcement K9 units worldwide.
And we back it with a written guarantee no class-based trainer in Mansfield will make: your dog will graduate 100% off-leash, 100% distraction-proof, or we keep training until they do. No excuses. No exceptions. Lifetime refresher support included.
Mansfield Neighborhoods We Serve
We deliver private in-home training across every Mansfield neighborhood. For board & train, your dog stays at our Lewisville HQ — 40 minutes north via SH-360.
Real Mansfield Training Environments
Class-based trainers proof dogs in quiet parking lots. We proof them where you actually live. Our Arlington training environments include:
- Joe Pool Lake (east shore — Lynn Creek Park) — water introduction, off-leash recall, calm waterfront training in a multi-dog environment
- Walnut Creek Linear Park — structured pack walks along the creek, place command in green space, controlled distraction work
- Old Town Mansfield (Main Street corridor) — controlled urban exposure, foot traffic desensitization, calm public-square training
- Hawaiian Falls perimeter (summer) — crowd desensitization, family-event proofing, child desensitization
- Mansfield Activity Center area — youth-sports families, kid foot traffic, organized event environments
- Highway 287 service roads — traffic noise desensitization, leash work past commercial distractions
This is what real-world proofing looks like — and it’s what makes our Mansfield-trained dogs reliable in your Mansfield life.

What DFW Dog Owners Are Saying
Five verified Google reviews — a small sample of the 557+ five-star reviews we’ve earned since 2013.
★★★★★“We had an excellent experience with Off Leash and our trainer Sam. We sent our 5 month old Vizsla to a board and train so he could have a strong start. He is much calmer and more confident on our walks and in everyday life.”
★★★★★“Their professionalism stood out immediately, but what truly set them apart was the level of communication and care. Our trainer Sam sent daily updates and videos of our dog’s progression — peace of mind we did not expect.”
★★★★★“Sam did an exceptional job with our dog Maverick. His excellent communication skills and attention to Maverick’s needs made us feel at ease throughout the process. We highly recommend Sam and his team to anyone with a young puppy in need of manners training.”
★★★★★“If you’re on the fence about training your dog, stop thinking and call Off-Leash K9. The transformation has been remarkable. Brandon and Laci unlocked the dog we knew was in there. Discipline and compassion go hand in hand here.”

Common Mansfield dog training scenarios
Different Mansfield households bring different challenges. Some patterns we see often:
- The Walnut Creek Country Club family dog. Often a Goldendoodle, Golden Retriever, or Lab. Needs to be polished — calm in the clubhouse, reliable around guests, off-leash in the yard. We deliver country-club-grade obedience.
- The Old Town puppy. Young family, first dog, lots of foot traffic. Foundation puppy training prevents 80% of the behavior issues that show up at 12–18 months.
- The South Pointe working breed. German Shepherd or Belgian Malinois in a Mansfield ranch home. Genetic alert/territorial drive needs structured outlets — not just yard time.
- The Highpoint / Reserve multi-dog household. Bigger property, multiple dogs, kids, busy schedule. Place command and pack management transform the whole household.
