Jennie (Elmont, NY)...

Thanks for coming out on Sunday.....since you left, the walks with Lady have greatly improved!!! She's not pulling ahead and she actually seems to be enjoying the walks more......I am trying to associate the words "Walk/Leash" and I think she might be catching on! She sits calmly by the chair and waits for me to attach her collar and leash, then she sits by the back door and waits for my ,"Look" command. We even went for a short walk in the rain on Saturday night (The temp was warmer than normal). She's been staying off the furniture since I placed aluminum foil along the cushions......AND here's the best part.....she's sleeping through till 8-9AM!!! I was afarid to get out of bed on Monday morning because she hadn't been in my room to wake me and it was 8:45AM....I thought she was dead or sick or unconscious.....I WOKE HER UP! She was sleeping by the front door. Oh happy day! Her reward was an even longer walk because I was better rested.

We are back from Florida and you would have been very proud of your pupil. He was amazing in the airport and on the plane. So well behaved!...NO LEASH ISSUES!

Kim (Long Island)...

Thank you for coming yesterday. We learned a lot. I'm glad you emailed us to help reinforce what you taught us. I was glad to see Bodie respond to you so quickly, there's hope for us yet. I really liked your technique. You were very patient with us. Your intructions were clear,easy to understand and you worked with us until we did it correctly.

Joanne (Long Island)...

For the first time in Rocky’s life he walked to the driveway without pulling. I got teary-eyed. Sounds silly but it was like watching your child take his first steps. I was able to walk him half way around the block by myself. Next time someone asks for a trainer I will definitely give them Leslie’s info. As I’ve said before, thank you. You are such a great resource!

Laurie (Huntington)...

She has shown so much improvement. I can't thank you enough. I believe it was your ability to help me become comfortable and confident that she feeds off of. I brought her to the dog park today at Coindre Hall and she had a great time with the other dogs and even let a man pet her. I am proud of her and so grateful to you. Since you came, Maddy does something she never did before and that is wag her tail. It's always wagging and she smiles. Thank you. I will call and be in touch because I know there is still work to do.

Denise (Huntington)...

Thanks for the helpful tips. We took her to the flower show and she did great. I was so proud of her.

Jackie (Bethpage)...

Now I know you CAN teach an old dog new tricks (behaviors). Thank you for giving Sparky the chance no one else would.

Nanci (Queens, NY)...

Leslie, Thanks for the great advice. I agree that Charlotte needs more walks with just me and her.

Aniela (Westbury, NY)...

I think that we've made quite a bit of progress with Shorty. He walks quite nicely by my right leg. He does not have much of a problem when I do not let him on the furniture for various periods of time-he stays by my feet quite patiently. I do not feed him when he is too excited-he seems to understand this, and calms down a bit. If he growls at me, I address it-I stand tall above him and say no.

Amy (Scarsdale, NY)...

thanks so much, you were a great help and confidence booster for us.

Amy (Huntington, NY)...

Thanks, Leslie. We have Jessie absolutely in her crate and in her small area in the corner of the kitchen. She is already used to being there with minimal barking and we feel much better that we are taking control. We feel liberated. We're taking our house back!

Ettel (Forest Hills, NY)...

Thank you so much for today, the session was really very helpful and priceless.

Joy (Centerport, NY)...

still doing very well. I have found that the techniques work. The walking has been great. Less barking, not allowed near the table, etc. They seem to be getting the top dog idea.

Shari & Aidan (Centerport, NY)...

Becky made tremendous improvements. Thanks so much!

Juli (Bayville, NY)...

I just wanted to let you know how well Max and Lane are doing- the difference in them is unbelieveable. Delaney has improved 100% on the leash, I only have to correct her when she gets distracted. Max has stopped following me around so much and is much more tolerant of Lane.

Lisa (Huntington, NY)...

Everything is great. He has been so much better. He has not gone after Casey since the first day of his dog training with you guys. He is such a great dog now. so much calmer. Thank you so much.
