My wife and I wish
to extend our gratitude to Larry LeoGrande owner/operator of K9
Obedience Training for the dedication and effort he
has displayed in training our Golden Retriever
Shamrock. We found his rates to be extremely reasonable and his
experience to be truly impressive.
His multiple years
of training and experience are clearly evident to
anyone who sees how well he interacts with each dog he
comes in contact with, regardless of the dog’s
breed. Noticeable
after just one session, is the fact that this trainer
truly loves what he is doing and that, I’m sure, is
a major contributing factor to his success as a
trainer. Also
notable, is the fact that his knowledge is not limited
to one particular breed either.
He is knowledgeable not only in canine
behavioral traits and characteristics, but breed
characteristics, temperaments, breed standards and
various training styles, methods and techniques as
well.
One of the things
we were most impressed with was his commitment to us
as the owners, as opposed to solely focusing on the
dog. Rather
than him simply training the dog for us, he was
committed to ensuring that we were confident in the
methods and techniques to use, so that we were capable
of training the dog between sessions.
In doing this, he showed a great deal of
patience and devotion, allowing us as much time and
attention as was necessary for us to understand and
successfully execute each method and technique (even
if this required more time than that which was
allotted for each session).
We
have heard of other trainers in the area and of the
training sessions you may enroll in at the local “big
box” pet stores.
However, we would not trade the experience we
have gained, or the success we have enjoyed as a
result of the methods learned at K9 for any price. He
has given us the knowledge and confidence to make our
dog Shamrock the polite, well-behaved, family dog we
wanted.
