Puppy Training in Columbus:
The Right Training at the Right Time

While many trainers rush into formal programs, at Off Leash K9 Training Columbus, we focus on education and development during your puppy’s critical first six months. Our approach begins with expert guidance and consultation, transitions to positive reinforcement techniques, and only moves to formal training once your puppy reaches six months – ensuring lasting results instead of quick fixes. Our comprehensive program addresses everything from socialization to anxiety prevention, creating a foundation for a well-behaved dog.

Pricing for Puppy Training

Puppy Consultation: $95

(credited toward future training programs)

“While a puppy consultation is our cheapest offering, it is also by far the most important because development periods in a puppy, just like development periods in a human being, if you miss those windows, you are going to be band-aiding problems for the rest of that dog’s life.”
– Daniel Carter, Owner, Off-Leah K-9
