Kaiser’s 2-Week Board and Train Success Story

Kaiser’s progress after a 2-week Board & Train in Hampton Roads, VA.

At A Glance

Dog Name: Kaiser
Breed: Doberman puppy
Location: Hampton Roads, VA
Main Issue: Hyper energy + reactive behavior + hard-to-manage puppy manners
Program: 2-Week Board & Train
Outcome: Noticeably calmer behavior, better manners, and ongoing trainer support to keep progress strong at home.

The Challenge

Aidan loved Kaiser, but managing him day-to-day was exhausting. Kaiser wasn’t just playful—he was insanely hyper and reactive, which made it hard to get focus, build consistency, and enjoy normal routines. When a puppy is constantly amped up, owners often feel like they’re doing everything and still getting nowhere.

That’s when Aidan decided he needed real structure and professional help from Off Leash K9 Training of Hampton Roads. Instead of trying to piece together solutions, he chose a program that would create consistent progress quickly, then show him how to maintain it at home.

The Diagnosis & Solution

Kaiser didn’t just need “more exercise.” He needed a training plan that built structure, improved focus, and created better habits that would carry into real life. With puppies like this, the key is clear communication, consistency, and repetition under guidance.

During Kaiser’s 2-Week Board & Train, we focused on everyday obedience and manners that help owners immediately. Aidan received consistent updates and pictures throughout the program, which made it easier to trust the process and see progress as it happened.

Just as important, this program is designed so results don’t fade the moment your dog comes home. If you’re considering the same path, you can review what’s included on Plans & Pricing and reach out through the Contact Page to get matched with the right program.

The Results

After the 2-week program, Aidan described Kaiser as “like a different animal”—in the best way. Kaiser still had that Doberman puppy energy, but he was far more manageable and well-behaved. And the results weren’t just a quick change; Aidan continued getting support even months later, which helped him keep momentum and handle real-life situations confidently.

Aidan also shared a moment that many owners can relate to: Kaiser chewed up the e-collar remote. Kayla helped with the replacement process and even called to help set the new controller up. That kind of follow-through is a big reason owners feel confident choosing Off Leash K9 Training of Hampton Roads instead of trying to figure everything out alone.

The Owner’s Reaction

“These guys are awesome! Specifically Kayla – who managed to train my insanely hyper and reactive Doberman puppy into a much more well behaved dog! Kaiser was like a different animal when I got him back after the 2 week board-and-train program. I got plenty of updates and pictures of my boy while he was away which made it much easier of me as well. Even months after Kayla has continued to check in and help with a questions I had. Kaiser even managed to get a hold of his e-collar remote and chewed it to pieces one time when I was left out 😅. Kayla helped with the whole process of me getting a replacement and even called to help me set the new controller up! If I got another pup I’d happily use Off Leash K9 Training again!”
