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. 

NOTICE TO ALL INQUIRIES:

Board and Train programs: I am completely booked for all of 2025 board and train programs. Please check back here periodically for any cancellations.

1:1 Private Session programs: I have a few openings for late summer 2025. Please sign up for a phone consultation (see below).

  • I conduct complimentary **phone consultations for serious inquiries to get answers you may have about me, my services, my philosophy, etc. (PLEASE NOTE: I do not give dog training advice during the consultation.) UNFORTUNATELY I DO NOT HAVE AN UPCOMING PHONE CONSULTATION DATE SCHEDULED AS I NEED TO FOCUS ON MY CURRENT CLIENTS. I WILL PROBABLY HAVE ANOTHER ONE IN JULY, SO CHECK BACK HERE PERIODICALLY FOR AN UPDATE.

  • I will need a completed inquiry form before we speak.

  • To actually get enrolled in a training program, you will need to put in a $200 deposit to reserve the next available spot. PLEASE NOTE: I book up approximately 3-6 months in advance. If you absolutely know that you want to train with me, I HIGHLY suggest submitting the deposit AT ANYTIME before we speak so that you will be guaranteed** my next available training spot. (**Please be advised that my next “spot” may be 6 or more months out from now.)

  • Thank you for your patience! My demand is so high that this is the only way I can manage my inquires.
