Off Leash K9 Training of Spokane

Board and Train is the main format. The 2 Week Foundation covers sit, down, place, heel, loose-leash and off-leash walking, recall around distractions, greeting manners, and door manners, while the 4 Week Elite and 5 Week Complete give dogs more time to build lasting habits. The 5 Week Complete also includes an AKC Canine Good Citizen test.

Behavior modification Board and Train runs in 4, 8, and 10 week formats for minor, moderate, and severe needs, including dogs with a bite history. A 12 lesson behavior modification program and therapy dog preparation, as lessons or a 4 week Board and Train, are also offered.

Private lessons come in basic, advanced, and in-home packages, and group classes include a basic program plus an advanced program with pack walks and prep for vet and grooming visits. Every Board and Train ends with a 2 to 3 hour hands-on turnover session where the owner learns each command with the trainer.

Off Leash K9 Training of Spokane is a dog training company serving Spokane, Spokane Valley, Coeur d’Alene, and the wider Eastern Washington and North Idaho region. It is the local location of Off Leash K9 Training, a national company with more than 130 locations, and it is owned by Danna and Trey Campo.

Danna found Off Leash K9 Training in 2016 as a client, when her two young black Labs needed help with their manners, and she trained under the Richmond, Virginia head trainer before bringing the program home to Spokane. She is an AKC Evaluator with continuing education in behavior modification and scent detection.

Trey is a retired firefighter and paramedic with more than 20 years of service, and he runs the business side. The team also includes head trainer Erica and senior trainer Brenna, both AKC Evaluators, and trainer Krysta, who pursued a master’s in animal health and behavior.

Training uses a balanced approach that combines marker training, positive reinforcement, and e-collar work for dogs five months and older. Younger puppies start with clicker and treat training, and every program works toward reliable on- and off-leash obedience out on trails, at the lake, and around real distractions.

Options include Board and Train, private and in-home lessons, group classes, behavior modification for fearful, reactive, or aggressive dogs, and therapy dog preparation for Pet Partners testing. Every new client starts with a free phone consultation so the team can recommend the right program for the dog.

How to Get Started!

Their Training Philosophy

I believe every dog can learn with clear guidance, patience, and regular practice. Every dog is different, so I adjust my training based on their behavior, personality, and needs. I use a balanced training approach that includes positive reinforcement, clear communication, and proper training tools when needed. My goal is to help dogs become well-behaved, confident, and obedient while building a stronger bond with their owners. I also believe owners play an important role in keeping their dog’s training consistent at home.

A Tough Case They Solved

One challenging case involved a dog that was very reactive around other dogs and difficult to control on walks. The dog would pull on the leash, bark, and struggle to stay calm around distractions. I focused on basic obedience, leash manners, and helping the dog respond better to commands. With regular practice and clear guidance, the dog began showing better focus and calmer behavior during walks. I also worked with the owner to help them continue the training at home.

What New Clients Can Expect

New clients can start with a free phone consultation where we discuss their dog’s behavior, training needs, and goals. During the first training session, we get to know the dog and begin working on basic commands and good behavior based on the selected program. Training may take place at home or in another suitable location, depending on the program. I also guide owners on how to communicate clearly with their dogs and practice the training correctly. My goal is to help both the dog and owner feel comfortable and confident throughout the training process.
