Dog Obedience Training Phoenix AZ

Denise Bozenski is the Director and Head Trainer of the Phoenix Off-Leash K9 Training location.

Denise was born and raised in Westampton, New Jersey, which is suburb of Philadelphia, and has spent her entire life around dogs. She and her family rescued basset hounds and volunteered with the local basset rescue there. After graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in Communications from Ursinus College, Denise pursued a federal law enforcement career with the United States Secret Service. This is where she met and worked with OLK9 founder and owner, Nick White.  When she wasn’t spending countless hours on the Surveillance Team at the White House, Denise could often be found dog-sitting for one or more of her co-workers. Because of the long hours she worked and her living arrangements, Denise was unable to have a dog of her own, so she would take on the temporary role of dog-sitting for her co-workers when they would be called on work trips or vacations.  From chihuahuas to English mastiffs, Denise was the go-to Mary Poppins amongst her peers.

OLK9 uses marker training, but we specialize in e-collar training to gain amazing obedience from your dog. There are a bunch of major misconceptions with e-collar training (see FAQ). E-collar training is more about using a ball as a reward, than it is about using the e-collar.

Off-Leash K9 Training is comprised of off leash dog trainers with experience and training ranging from the US Marine Corps, DOD, US Secret Service, and private sector experience! We guarantee 100% Obedience, 100% Off-Leash! Your dog will be trained to have the same level of obedience as most police/military working dogs!

What we enjoy most is seeing dogs that have spent their whole life on a leash, now being 100% Off-Leash and obedient! We thrive off of seeing the joy in both the dogs’ and the owners’ face when they have mastered a new command without the restriction of a leash.
