My name is Cheryl Albrecht-Harvey and I am the owner and head trainer at Lead Off Leash K9 Training. I have always been interested in dogs and dog behavior since I can remember, and I have helped countless friends and family have a more harmonious relationship with their dog. In 2015, I began Lead Off Leash K9 Training to make my life’s passion into my career. I am a certified dog trainer from Ivan Balabanov’s school, Training Without Conflict (TWC). I am honored to be one of a handful of TWC trainers around the world. I am an active member of an international dog training on-line forum and participate in monthly TWC community calls where we discuss the most recent and innovative dog training concepts and techniques. I am a member of the International Association of Canine Professionals (IACP) and I am licensed by the Pet Animals Care Facility Act program, which is a licensing an inspection program dedicated to protecting the health and well-being of animals and pet care facilities throughout Colorado. I will work with any dog and any issue – from the happy-go-lucky puppy to severe cases of fear and/or separation anxiety to extreme human aggression and/or severe dog aggression cases. I will be your last stop in dog training: your dog will leave my training program as a stable, confident, and happy off-leash pup and you will feel extremely confident in your new-found relationship with your four-legged family member. Take a look around my website and see what I have to offer. In addition to in person training, I have a plethora of free dog training content that is behavior-specific and extremely helpful on my YouTube channel.
