Testimonial

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.
