Why professional training is essential for Cumming dog owners
Behavior modification
Address jumping, pulling, barking, anxiety, and reactivity at the root, not just the symptom.
Safety & control
A dog that listens the first time is a safer dog around traffic, livestock, wildlife, and people.
Stronger bond
Clear communication builds trust, so your dog looks to you for direction instead of guessing.
Skills that transfer
We hand the training over to you at pickup, so the obedience keeps working at home.
Family harmony
A calm, well-mannered dog means a calmer home for kids, guests, and other pets alike.

Built for how Cumming dogs actually live
Cumming sits between Lake Lanier and Sawnee Mountain, with the trails and parks of Forsyth County all around it. That is a lot of good ground for a dog, and a lot of things for a dog to chase: geese on the shoreline, other dogs on the paths, crowds at the city center on a festival weekend.
A dog that holds a sit in the kitchen but drags you across the parking lot at the park is a common problem, and a fixable one. Lessons are where you learn to handle that yourself. We train in real places, with real distractions, so the commands hold up when it matters.
If you want the work done faster, the two-week board and train is where off-leash recall gets built, and the handover session shows you how to keep it.
Where your dog will shine

- Central Park
- Fowler Park
- Mary Alice Park on Lake Lanier
- Cumming City Center
Owner Tyler Breh moved to Georgia in 2015 to start his law enforcement career, and spent most of it as a K9 handler. Since then he has trained in obedience, detection, bite work, tracking and decoy work with working-dog trainers across Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina.
He and his team of trainers work with dogs and their owners across North Georgia today.

What our clients say
“Tyler was amazing throughout the training process! He is the dog whisperer of Cumming. My pup learned so much and I’m excited to implement the training at home. He taught her as well as me!”
“We met Tyler at a local festival at the cumming city center and signed up our golden retriever (who had prior training elsewhere) and our 16-week-old doodle with Off Leash K9 Training. Two months later, both dogs are doing amazing!”
“We hired Tyler & his staff (Brannon) for one-on-one training for our dog Gene Kelly. The training is so good, it encouraged us and instilled a confidence to continue his training for the rest of Gene Kelly’s life.”
Frequently asked questions
Do you train dogs in Cumming?
Yes. Cumming is one of the towns our clients come from most, and our trainers travel to clients across Forsyth County by appointment. Call for a free phone consultation and we will set up your first lesson near you.
Where do the lessons take place?
Somewhere with real distractions near you, not inside your house. A dog that listens in a quiet living room has not learned much yet; a dog that listens at a busy park has. Your trainer sets the spot with you when you book.
What happens in board and train?
Your dog lives and trains with one of our professional trainers for one or two weeks. When your dog comes home you get a one-on-one handover session (1.5 hours after the one-week program, 2 hours after the two-week) on every command and how to handle it. Details are on our plans and pricing page.
My dog is reactive or aggressive. Can you help?
Yes, through our aggressive dog hybrid program: four private lessons first, where the trainer evaluates your dog's behavior, then a one or two-week board and train focused on what sets your dog off. No trainer can honestly promise a complete fix for serious aggression, and we will not pretend to.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. Payment plans are available. Call us today to learn more about payment options.
