OFF LEASH K9 TRAINING OF CHARLOTTESVILLE
Off-Leash K9 Training Charlottesville is part of the highest-rated dog training business in the United States! With over 130 locations nation-wide, we are the fastest growing dog training company in the world. From our training facility in Ruckersville, we serve dog owners across the Charlottesville area, including Crozet, Earlysville, Waynesboro, Staunton, and the communities in between. We offer several different packages in order to give clients the opportunity to decide what program best fits their lifestyle.
We specialize in private lessons, dog behavior consultations, and teaching dog owners to understand why their dogs do the things they do. This helps create a strong bond between the owner and dog and without the restriction of a leash. We believe that 98% of all dogs can be trained to have amazing obedience: regardless of breed, size, shape, or age!
Our training technique is designed to work for dogs of all ages, breeds and sizes! The Off Leash K9 Training system is a proven system that changes both owners’ and canines’ lives for the better. Our company is made up of handlers with experience and training ranging from different branches in the military to rescue and shelter volunteers, and even former veterinarian technicians.
We offer training to fit the dog’s unique needs and the client’s goals. Explore all of our training programs to find the right fit.
Working mainly with household pets, we are able to offer you and your pet an exceptional level of obedience, which allows you to bring them anywhere and everywhere with you, hassle-free. What we enjoy most is seeing dogs that have spent their whole life on a leash, now being 100% off-leash and obedient! We thrive off of seeing the joy in both the dogs’ and the owners’ face when they have mastered a new command without the restriction of a leash. See where that journey leads in our clients’ success stories, or learn about our board and train program, our most popular path to reliable off-leash obedience.

Life with a dog in the Charlottesville area is good: trails along the Rivanna, dog-friendly patios on the Downtown Mall, weekend hikes in the Blue Ridge. But none of it is relaxing if your dog won’t listen the moment the leash comes off, or spends the whole outing pulling, barking, and lunging at everything that moves.
Whether you’re raising a new puppy or working through years of bad habits, the goal is the same: a dog you can trust at home, around guests, and out in public. That takes more than treats and repetition. It takes a proven system and trainers who work with dogs like yours every day.
You don’t have to figure it out alone. Off Leash K9 Training of Charlottesville has earned a 4.9-star average across more than 200 Google reviews from local dog owners. Have questions about how training works? Start with our FAQ, or call for a free phone consultation.
