Welcome Charlie to Off Leash K9 Training Bakersfield!

We’re excited to welcome Charlie, a 7-month-old Pit Bull mix, to our 2-Week Board & Train Program!

Charlie’s owners enrolled him because he struggles with confidence and isn’t comfortable around other dogs. During his stay, our trainers will focus on helping him become calmer, more confident, and more neutral in distracting environments.

In addition to building his confidence, Charlie will be working on:

Basic and advanced obedience

Reliable leash manners

Better focus around distractions

Improved impulse control

Dog neutrality and appropriate social behavior

Over the next two weeks, Charlie will be exposed to a variety of real-world environments and training scenarios to help him develop into a well-mannered companion. Every dog learns at their own pace, and our goal is to give Charlie the tools he needs to succeed both during training and when he returns home.

We’re looking forward to watching Charlie’s transformation. Stay tuned for updates on his progress!

Welcome to the Off Leash K9 Training Bakersfield family, Charlie! 🐾
