Back to Basics Dog Training

Leon spent maybe a total of 5 hours or less training my husband and I how to get our puppy, now 10 months old, under control. We were desperate! We were getting ready to leave to go fulltime ministry and were so close to rehoming Bear. He confidently told us he could help. After listening to his advice and doing the things he was recommending and what he says, then, “rinse and repeat”, and being consistent for about 2months or so, we now have a puppy who would jump on everyone, get excited and pee on people, would pull on his leash hard, wouldn’t listen to anything, had major anxiety in high stimulation areas, it was a nightmare at times, to a puppy now who is amazingly calm in busy settings, doesn’t jump on people anymore, obeys commands, sit, lie down, come, stay, wait, can walk near us without leash, doesn’t run off, he is gentle with kids, and still very playful but in the right settings. He loves other dogs.He even did very well getting onto a Dinghy and boated to the sailboat, got in and was calm the whole time around new people and children. It’s truly amazing to see how far Bear has come, from before we used Leon to after. It’s truly worth it and I highly recommend. But you have to do the things he recommends or it just doesn’t work. Consistency and commitment are key. It is possible to have the dog you want in as little as 2 months. Thank you, Leon for all your help and support. We would not even think about rehoming him now. I’m so glad we did this!

Leon is the Dog whisperer of the Carolinas! We got a 2 month old Lab Pit mix and he is now 8 months and in 3 sessions we literally have a different Dog. Leon doesn’t train the dogs he trains their people. Very grateful for the tools he taught my wife and I. Thank you Leon! You know your a good dog trainer when people see how good your dog is on a walk and people stop you to ask where did we get the dog training! Thanks again Leon!

Just one week after working with Leon, we've already noticed meaningful improvements in our 8-month-old Bernedoodle’s leash reactivity and jumping. Leon took the time to genuinely understand both our dog and our family dynamic, helping us see how our own behaviors were influencing his. As lifelong dog owners, we were surprised by how much we learned. Leon’s thoughtful and personalized approach made a real difference. Highly recommend!

This company is absolutely amazing. I just moved here recently and got the recommendation and I am so grateful I did. The amount of love they had for my dogs was amazing. Sending pictures daily. Loving on my dogs. Taking care of them so amazingly. As well as the price was great and affordable!! I will always use this company. They were great with schedule and accommodated as best as they can. I will continue to recommend them, and use them for the future.
