Leash Legacy K9 Training in Bassett, VA is a dog training business that specializes in off-leash obedience, reactivity rehabilitation, and foundational manners using calm, positive reinforcement paired with structured e-collar communication. The trainer, Jay, offers personalized programs including board-and-train, puppy starter, and obedience reset options designed for dogs of all sizes and ages. Their signature 6-week intensive board-and-train program provides full-time training with daily structure, e-collar conditioning (opt-in), and lifetime post-program support. They also offer AKC CGC prep, behavior modification for fearful or reactive dogs, and handler coaching to empower owners with clear communication skills. The business serves pet owners in Bassett, Collinsville, Martinsville, Rocky Mount, Boones Mill, and Roanoke, VA, and provides related services including pet boarding, puppy development, and service/therapy dog training. All training is conducted at their private facility with controlled distractions, and they emphasize humane, low-stress methods that build trust and confidence.
