Archie's Story: A Golden Retriever Puppy Who Now Runs Leash Free at the Park
Very reactive and full of energy, Archie was hard to take on a walk. Almost a year after his training, his family wrote a review about how it went.

Where Archie started
Archie is a golden retriever puppy. His family describes him before training as "very reactive and a ball of uncontrollable energy."
That made it difficult for him to follow simple commands. It also made walks hard. He would be "vacuuming the streets or darting for birds/ cats etc."
The training journey
Archie stayed with Jesse and our team for a board and train. While he was here, his family "received frequent videos showing his progress during his stay."
The training was for the family too. They wrote that they got an education on the proper use of the e-collar, and that Jesse responded quickly to their follow-up questions, before and after the training.
What actually changed
- A happier dog. "We have a more happier dog."
- Daily errands. He can now go along with his family on them.
- The park. He can "run around the park leash free."
★★★★★
“Overall the training Archie received and the education we received regarding proper use of the E-collar from Bakersfield K9 Offleash board and training has been life changing. […] Archie was very reactive and a ball of uncontrollable energy making it difficult for him to follow simple commands and/or take on a walk without vacuuming the streets or darting for birds/ cats etc. It’s been almost a year since his training and we remain forever grateful to the people who created this program and trained Archie. We have a more happier dog who can accompany us on daily errands as well as run around the park leash free.”

What it changed for the family
His family wrote this review almost a year after his training, and they used the words "life changing" twice. They recommend the training to anyone who "wants peace of mind with their dogs as they experience more freedom."
Why Archie's story matters to us
A review written almost a year later means a lot to Off Leash K9 Training Bakersfield. Any family can be excited on pickup day. Archie's family was still "forever grateful" long after it.
