Lone Star Dog Training and Care

My Bob and Tug (both 1yr old frenchies) spent three weeks with Sergey at his home in Austin and the improvement to our everyday life has been immense! His daily communication was fantastic- providing updates, videos, and pictures along the way. They were generally really good boys before training, but now I can confidently say they are the best behaved dogs in the room while socializing them with friends or at dog parks. Our daily walks have become so much more enjoyable. 6/5 stars.

We are extremely happy with the progress Sergey made with our French Bulldog, Milo, during his two-week board and train program at Lone Star Dog Training and Care in Austin! Milo is an 11-month-old Frenchie who has always been a great pup, but since both of us were working full-time, we didn’t have enough time to properly train him in basic obedience. That’s when we discovered Sergey and decided to give it a try—and we’re so glad we did! Throughout the training, Milo learned essential commands like sit, lay down, wait, heel, stop, come, place, and crawl, as well as how to wait at the door for an invite before going outside. One of the biggest wins was breaking his bad habit of eating poop and using pads, which completely stopped thanks to a structured walking schedule Sergey implemented. Milo also stopped being anxious about the metal crate and got used to the airline pet carrier, which was a huge relief. At the end of the training, I went to pick Milo up, and Sergey made sure I fully understood all the commands and how to reinforce them. We even did a Canine Good Citizen test, which Milo passed! Now, we’re working towards his next milestone—the Urban Canine Good Citizen test. Since we’re moving to another state, Sergey provided us with a detailed PDF guide outlining all the commands, training exercises to continue, and even recommendations for food and walking schedules. Overall, we’re extremely happy with the results and would highly recommend Sergey to anyone looking for a skilled and dedicated dog trainer, especially for French Bulldogs! Thank you Sergey!!

THANK YOU LONESTAR DOG TRAINER!!! James and his team transformed our sweet Buddy, a 7.5 month old extremely spoiled and hyper Australian Labradoodle, who loved bitting, chewing, getting into and on everything in site, to a well-trained, obedient version of himself. The changes we have seen in Buddy have been remarkable and life changing for our family of four. James' expertise, dedication and professionalism is the best in business and I know that if I ever have any questions or concerns James is only a phone call/text away! If you want the dog of your dreams, we highly recommend James and his training to anyone looking for a dog trainer. You won't be disappointed!

I had arranged with this dog trainer to board my dog from October 8th to October 19th, and everything was confirmed. However, just two days before my trip, he called and told me that he couldn’t take my dog because he had accepted another dog for boarding that required a lot of training and attention. This left me in a difficult situation at the last minute, with no time to make other arrangements. Extremely unprofessional and unreliable – I would not recommend the boarding service here if you don’t want to be left in a difficult situation at the last minute.
