Why Leonard is Different

A big part of eradicating your dog’s behavior is teaching you how to connect with your dog on the animal level instead of the human level. The relationship needs to be one of balance, trust, respect, structure, and leadership. Leonard will teach you how to maintain the transformation once your dog’s training is complete.

Two months after my dog has been home from doggy boot camp. I don't have any problems barking like I had before or being aggressive in the house or in front of the house.  I don't even have any problems with her being aggressive in the car anymore.  Also she's not aggressive with me personally.

We are thankful everyday for our decision to work with Leonard. Our French Bulldog Yoshi is doing so great. We are able to see light at the end of the tunnel with a dog that listens to us. I cannot say enough of the life change that we are experiencing in our lives through the work with Leonard.

Leonard is a great trainer who really knows what he is doing. I'm so glad my boyfriend and I decided to take our rescue pup to training. Even though our puppy is technically a senior dog Leonard was still willing to train him.

We are now about a month out after she finished bootcamp and she is a truly changed dog! Leonard not only gave her the confidence to handle her anxiety, but also taught her how to walk away when she is around something she doesn't like (e.g. new people, loud noises, the Roomba, etc...).

I brought my 9-yr old, lab-mix rescue to Leonard for consultation prior to boot camp. Within the first 15 min of the visit, I could already see my dog transforming into a dog that I had not previously experienced.

I had the best experience with Leonard. He was professional, to the point, and kind. Leonard is a master of his profession and changed the way I now see my dog (for the better) and the respect and bond that I have with my dog.

Elliott spent 3 weeks with Leonard and we met up with him during and after that time to review skills. Now Elliott can easily walk by other dogs on a leash without reacting. He is also much better behaved at home because we have better routines with him.

My fiancé and I just finished our two hour consultation with Leonard and our two dogs. It may have been the most constructive 2 hours we've spent with our dogs since we've had them. As a matter of fact, it DEFINITELY was. We are confident that those two hours will change our relationship with our dogs forever.

Leonard absolutely changed our world this past August. We came to him after having sent our dog away to another boarding program and several in person training sessions. She had issues with children before going to the board and train program and came back from that program with aggression towards other dogs that we had never experienced before. We tried everything - positive reinforcement, corrective measures, consistent exercise and exposure to other dogs - nothing seemed to help. Our dog was fearful and we weren't equipped to handle it, in many ways making her issues worse. The last straw was her snapping at another dog while away at a boarder - I called Leonard on the verge of tears. He has a special skill of tapping into both you and your dog in ways that are truly indescribable. We had a consultation session and ultimately decided that a board and train program for 3 weeks would be for the best, making sure that we were committed to his methodology. The dog we got back was completely changed and we left feeling like we actually knew what to do if these issues popped up. Leonard is really one of a kind and now 5 months later, I can speak truly that our dog has retained all the training from his program. She is able to be around other dogs with absolutely no issue, including dogs who she had previously been aggressive with. I really can't even begin to describe the peace of mind this has brought me and my husband - as well as the increased bond we've felt with our dog. 100000% worth it. Thank you thank you thank you Leonard!!
