About B The Leader Dog Training
B the Leader offers dog behavioral training and classes. Owner, Julia Bowlin, has been training dogs since 2004. We specialize in behavior problems including jumping, biting, pulling on the leash, and running away. This is deeper training than basic commands. We teach you how to create a balanced coexistence with your dog in your daily life.

Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
I understand you have a play group. Is that for dogs in your training only?
We hold puppy playgroups for dogs 6 months and under on Sundays from 12:30-1:30pm. We don't require training for that but we do ask you call ahead to let us know you'll be coming! For dogs over 6 months we require a training to make sure all of our pups are respectful of our staff and of each other!

A good indoor playground for dogs on a cold rainy day.

Top rate trainer, top rate training facility. Logan did great during his training session. I did pretty good too. We went on our first walk today and he did fantastic! It was all I hoped for and more. No pulling, running side to side or laying on his back. He walked calmly on a loose leash, no distractions. I look forward to helping Logan be the dog I always wanted. I am excited and I feel confident in the training I received. This was money well spent.
