Meet Christine, Owner

Christine has been professionally training since 2011. After graduating from National K-9 School for Dog Trainers, she began training service dogs for veterans with PTSD, successfully placing over 150 dog and handler teams. Raised in a military family, discipline, structure, and accountability have always come naturally. Over the years, Christine has continued her education through multiple advanced training programs, most recently completing Ivan Balabanov’s Training Without Conflict with her husband, Dirk. She specializes in working with challenging and “problem” dogs, bringing clarity, structure, and a better relationship with your dog! As the owner of Off Leash K9 Training SWFL, her goal is to create dogs and owners who trust each other-blending structure, engagement, and play to produce results that hold up in the real world.
