Frequently Asked Questions
What training methods do you use?
Off Leash K9 Training uses program-specific training methods based on your dog’s age, needs, and goals. Basic Obedience, Basic + Advanced, and Board & Train programs include e-collar training to help build reliable obedience and off-leash communication. The Basic Marker Mastery program uses reward-based methods with a clicker, treats, leash work, and an introduction to Come, Sit, Place, and loose-leash walking.
For behavior concerns such as aggression or reactivity, the training focuses on obedience, control, desensitization, and owner education. The goal is to give owners clearer tools for communication and better control in real-world situations.
Do you train dogs of all ages and breeds?
Yes, Off Leash K9 Training of Phoenix works with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. For e-collar-based obedience training, dogs generally need to be at least 5 months old. Puppies 5 months or younger may be a fit for Puppy Training Consultations, which focus on basic obedience foundations, house training guidance, and early training questions.
For puppies, early guidance can help owners understand house training, basic obedience foundations, and age-appropriate expectations before moving into more advanced training.
