My family is SO grateful for Ashlind at Off leash K9 training. She took in our incredibly reactive 2-year-old German Shepherd rescue, after I might add, he barked at her and showed his teeth aggressively when first meeting her. She didn’t turn us away and moved forward with the two week training and our dog has transformed! Prior to the training, we couldn’t take him anywhere because of his reactivity with dogs and people. We dreaded taking him on walks, going to the vet, pet stores, etc. He picked and chose when to listen to commands and was very stubborn. He now listens to us with ease, and has a nearly perfect heel when walking with us! I don’t have to pull his leash or have any tension on it, he’s at my side the entire time. Throughout the training, Ashlind sent us daily updates with several videos and pictures. I felt very in the loop during the entire process. If you feel stuck in your current situation with your furbaby and at lost for what to do, I strongly recommend you reach out to Off leash K9 training and ask for Ashlind. She will help your pup be their best selves!

We took Wally as a four year old dog, he’s a mutt and a super nice dog but he listened to no one and lost his mind when the doorbell rang…. Ashlind had him for two weeks gave us great daily updates photos, videos and texts. Wally came back, Ashlind trained us and he’s a completely different dog. Immediately took him for a walk through Lowe’s and he was perfect, we’re very pleased with the whole experience!!

We have a 1 year old lab who was very terrified of strangers and very protective of our home and children. He had a habit of running through his boundary line and barking at the neighbors which was less than great. We wanted him to be the kind of pup we could take with us out in public and to kids out door sporting events.(insert off leash and the fabulous Ashlind) He is an entirely different puppy! He comes when told, lays down or sits until we tell him he can move, most of all he doesn’t bark when people come by! He went to baseball practice for the first time placed on the bench and just watched his little human play. In the beginning we were worried his behavior was stuck in a bad way and Ashlind was honest and communicative the entire time. In the end he exceeded our expectations. She loved him like he was hers and always updated us on pros and cons of how things were going. We look forward to working with her again very soon. She is truly one of the best and so kind and loving to every animal she helps. You can see this is her passion and she knocks it out of the park!

I was super anxious and hesitant to leave our puppy with a stranger, but Ashlind was the perfect person to leave her with to train! She is open, trustworthy and She did a great job training our dog new commands. I feel like we are in a great spot to continue with the training from here with our new well behaved dog. Would definitely recommend!!Edit after first week: our dog is doing incredible heal (walking on leash) she doesn’t miss a beat, walks perfectly in line with us, adjusts her speed to keep up with us. She’s doing absolutely fantastic. Her separation anxiety has also gotten much better since before the training.

Ashlind from off leash was absolutely amazing! She trained my dog perfectly. She was very direct with her procedures on how she does her training and kept me informed for the whole time she had my dog. Ashlind would not sugarcoat anything. If my dog was having a stressful day and was not responding as she had hoped, she would let me know. She would also let me know when my dog was having a fantastic day and would send videos to me of all those moments. I would recommend her and this company to anybody and everybody. It is certainly worth every penny.

Enrolled my 2 yr old rescued GSD I have been struggling with in their 2 week board and train program. Brittany did a great job laying a foundation for a well trained dog, And I hope to continue his improvement with their addition help if needed.

Incredibly happy with our experience and training at off leash K9 in lansing! Our 2.5 yr old chocolate lab spent 2 weeks at the board and train with Ashlind! He returned a completely different dog! It’s now a joy to take him out in public. Here he is at Home Depot! Wish I had done the training sooner. Ashlind was wonderful, sent video updates every day sharing his progress. She took the time to explain everything and answer questions! Highly recommend!

Ashlind is a ROCKSTAR! I took my dog poppy (18mo mini bernedoodle) to the board and train and I am astonished with the results. Poppy is not aggressive but extremely reactive. My concerns were getting her a solid recall, minimizing dog reactivity, and leash manners. She has all of these skills now. I was really worried about poppy losing her spunky personality or not being able to be a dog after intense training, but Ashlind made training rigorous but fun for her, so poppy is still poppy. Be warned that you need to put in hard work after your dog comes home or else they lose all of their training. It took a second for poppy to respect and listen to me but she is perfect now after a week of being home. I can’t wait to continue training with her and enjoying a lifetime of fun with my dog.

Ashton from Off Leash K9 Training Detroit did and amazing job with training my airedale terrier. I was unable to have him off leash and it hindered our day to day activities because I had no control of him once the leash was off. After this training we are going everywhere off leash and playing fetch in new places, it really changed everything for us because I was able to become confident in having control of him even when there is no leash. It has improved my relationship with my boy by 100% because it allows him to be free and have a good time while still having to listen and follow directions. This made training fun. We highly recommend!

Our 8month old male GSD completed his 2 week Board and Train on Monday with Ashlind. Communication was perfect throughout, and she answered questions we had from her daily videos and texts. Our training began when Kaiser’s did! The daily info she sent was so helpful and impressive. It also eased my worry about him being away from me for that long! She was able to point out his reactions to distractions (ex: scooters, wheelchairs, strollers, focusing too much on other dogs) Learning the remote is still new to us and will become more natural. I have the information to retain and grow his success. Ashlind‘s support/answers to questions that have come up in these first couple of days home is very helpful. Kaiser was a source of pride for us when we went to TSC his first evening home. At our local park yesterday, we saw other dogs, bikes, lots of people, watched kids play on the playground, spent time talking to a gentleman and his adult daughter who is in a wheelchair and nonverbal - Kaiser stayed in his plotz(down) position. We even walked to the ice cream shop - very busy - he remained in the position we put him in and broke his Fuss(heel) while walking. The future looks bright! In fact, I left them a message today to discuss training with our four-year-old GSP. Highly recommend Ashlind.

We just finished basic obedience training with our 9 month old pup, Riley, and it was amazing! Our trainer, Brittany, was incredible. She did a great job not only teaching Riley various commands but also teaching my husband and I how best to continue his training at home even if different situations arise. She worked through all his stubbornness and helped build his confidence. You can tell she has a real passion for this. We would definitely recommend this training for anyone!

I took 2 of my dogs here and Shannon turned them both into new pups! They are so well behaved now and I couldn't be happier with the results. They were so poorly behaved I was stressed out all the time and not enjoying my pets. Complete 180!

Axel was only 6 months old and uncontrollable. We were referred to Off Leash K-9 training and calling them was the best thing we ever did for Axel and us.. He is now 8 months old, but a different dog because as soon as he returned home he is manageable. Ashlind was Axel's trainer and in two weeks Axel became a different dog. It was great that we received daily videos so we could see his accomplishments. While visiting different establishments, we would receive some really cute pictures of Axel. We enjoy him so much more because he minds us on command, no biting, he goes out without a leash , heels, sits, stays and it helped with housebreaking and socialization. Axel will sit on his rug and stay there until you release his command. After it was over Ashlind is still around to answer questions, Axel is much more enjoyable. I would highly recommend this training even though it is a little pricy. Worth every penny. Happy clients!!

Outstanding! Charlie is my year old husky mix that spent 2 weeks board and train with Shannon. Every night I got several videos with explanations of what she was doing with him. I had several questions as the 2 weeks went by and she answered all of them promptly. So impressed. It was so obvious that he was having a great time with her, I didn't worry at all. She has a rapport with dogs that is incredible. He is still his goofy self, just well behaved goofy now!! I would recommend her to anyone!! If you're wondering if the cost is worth it -- every penny, I do not regret it all!!!
