Russ and Laurie Crager

Your LowCountry Dog Trainers – The Official Off Leash K9 Trainer for South Carolina and Georgia

Russ and Laurie Crager are honored to bring Off Leash K9 Training to the LowCountry of South Carolina. They use the same training techniques that Military and Law Enforcement use when training working dogs. These training techniques build confidence in your dog. The techniques also establish and re-enforce your Leadership position. You will be amazed how this strengthens the bond between you and your dog.

Russ is the Head Trainer, while Laurie brings her extensive business, organizational and marketing skills to the team. Together, they have built a team that is committed to providing you with a calm, confident, well behaved four legged friend that you will be proud to take out in public.

Many years ago, Russ and Laurie fell in love with the Australian Shepherd breed. These independent, assertive, high-energy dogs can do the work of 3 or 4 cowboys. However, these same traits also mean the dogs can be a challenge. They have loved and trained a number of these dogs over the years. Almost 8 years ago, their latest puppy, that came from a working line, proved more challenging than clicker and leash training could overcome. With the help of Nick White, their latest addition to the family is now the most confident and well behaved dog they have ever owned.

Due to their belief in this type of obedience training, Russ and Laurie purchased an Off Leash K9 Training location.  Russ began training with Nick White (owner and founder of Off Leash K9 Training). While training and eventually working at the original Off Leash K9 Training facility, Russ trained over 25 dogs per week. After seeing hundreds of dogs transformed using Nick’s unique training system, they are convinced Off Leash K9 Training is the most innovative, effective dog training method in use today.

After just one lesson you will understand why Off-Leash K9 Training is considered one of the top dog training businesses in the country!
