ALEX

Hello! I am the co-owner of Albany Off Leash K9 Training! I have been training dogs with OLK9 since 2014. It has been my pleasure to so far have worked with countless different dogs. I am comfortable handling dogs of any age, any breed and any size. I grew up getting my hands on as many animals as possible! Outside of the cats, dogs, horses and birds that my family owned, I often visited less domesticated animals such as ostriches, lynx, raccoons, monkeys and other species. I am thrilled to have a career that allows me to work with canines and their owners!

CRYSTAL

Hello! My entire life, from a young age I have loved and been surrounded by animals of all kinds! From the swampy Florida lands I grew up in, I encountered animals of all sorts including Snakes, Alligators, Crocodiles, Bats & even Tarantulas! I moved up to New York in 2017, beginning my northern life on a farm specializing in endangered & rare breeds. I’ve worked with animals of all shapes and sizes including, Chickens, Ducks, Bunnies, Pigs, Sheep, Goats & even Llamas! I cherish the dogs and cats in my daily life so much! I strive to give out as much knowledge as I can to help others understand & communicate with their furry companion!

LEXI

Hi there! My journey with Off Leash began back in 2018 when I had my dog trained in the 2-week board and train program.  Our GSD Hugo was well behaved but we were hoping for more and their program was a great fit for our growing family.  I have always been an animal lover and dreamed one day I would be able to work with dogs.  After the pandemic, I was ready to make this lifestyle change.  I was able to leave my career of 10 years and turn my passion into my career as a dog trainer with Off Leash!  I truly enjoy working with clients and being a part of the transformation of their pups into well-behaved members of their family, as Off Leash has done for my own!

HUGH

Hello there! I am Hugh Patterson, a highly experienced Professional Dog Trainer with more than 35 years under my belt. I take immense pride in having graduated from one of the longest-standing and most esteemed K9 training facilities in the entire US – the renowned United States K9 Academy. Throughout its existence, this facility has produced countless professional and Master Trainers, many of whom continue to be active in the field today. At Albany Off Leash K9 Training, I bring with me a wealth of knowledge and techniques that I acquired through the teachings of Jack Healey and what Albany Off Leash K9 Training itself instills in its trainers. For us, dog training is an art form that only a select few can truly master. It requires the ability to understand and adapt to the unique needs and personalities of each and every dog. This is something I excel at – over the years, I’ve even been referred to as a “dog whisperer” due to my exceptional ability to communicate with and train dogs. My expertise lies in both Basic and Advanced Obedience training, but I specialize particularly in behavioral modification. Additionally, I am well-versed in personal protection training and effectively resolving aggressive behavior issues.
