After making the arduous move from Philly to South Florida, our dog struggled with profound anxiety. She was more reactive and becoming increasingly impatient with our kids. We had no clue how to redirect her and desperately sought out a strong dog trainer to help us.
Laz was patient, relatable, and accommodating. Knowing the situation was dire, he came out to meet Willow right away and coached us in safety with our kids. He showed us what could do to feel empowered and take back control of situation and things improved immediately.
Laz was generous with his knowledge and time and built in extra shorter sessions due to scheduling with our kids. He isn’t just a wonderful trainer, he’s a great human being. He always puts family first, is always responsive, and he’s become someone we can count on. We have taken full advantage of his boarding services and recommend him to everyone. We are so lucky to have found him!

Laz at Alpha Buddy Dog Training is a true miracle worker, and I couldn't recommend him highly enough. When we adopted Toby from the shelter, we knew he had a troubled past, but we never anticipated the extent of his aggression towards people and other animals. It was a heartbreaking situation that left us feeling helpless.
Enter Laz. From our very first consultation, it was evident that he possessed an unparalleled expertise and passion for his work. His approach to training Toby was not only effective but also compassionate. Laz took the time to understand Toby's unique challenges and tailored a comprehensive training program to address his aggression.
Thanks to Laz's expertise and commitment, Toby has undergone a remarkable transformation. He's now able to interact with people and animals in a calm and controlled manner, something we once thought impossible. Laz didn't just train Toby; he gave him a second chance at life, and for that, we will be forever grateful.
