Jessica: Prior to becoming a certified trainer with Off Leash K9 Training in 2017, Jessica was a Veterinary Tech for X Way Animal hospital in Laurinburg, NC. She had also spent time caring for dogs as a Kennel Tech in North Carolina for both K2 Solutions and Dog’s Best Friend in Southern Pines, NC.
BETHANY RIDDLE – Bethany is the head trainer for Off Leash K9 Training in Columbia. While serving 8 years in the U.S. Air force as an F-15E Crew Chief, she volunteered at various animal shelters. As a first wedding anniversary gift from her husband, she received a Great Dane puppy, which reignited her childhood passion for working with animals.
After the Air Force, she returned to South Carolina and graduated Cum Lade with a Bachelor’s degree in Biology and a minor in Chemistry from Francis Marion University in 2013. Aside from completing her formal training at Off Leash K9 headquarters (Woodbridge, VA), Bethany trained at multiple Off Leash K9 locations learning from no less than 10 trainers. She believes in consistency and compassion and looks forward to helping you have an obedient and well balanced dog as part of your family.
DAN WALLEN – Dan is the owner of Off Leash K9 Training, Columbia, SC. He graduated from Marshall University with an undergraduate in Business Administration.
Dan began his experience with Off Leash K9 Training as a client in 2009. After trying various trainers for his German Shepherds (Maximus and Athena), he was still not happy with the results and began to attend training sessions with Nick White at the Off Leash K9 Training headquarters in Woodbridge, Virginia.
