Who says you can’t teach an old dog new tricks?! Laz helped us tremendously in one session! Our 7 year old Boston terrier was pee pad trained but still made messes and that meant we couldn’t leave rugs out. We wanted to get rid of the pee pads, once and for all. One session with Laz and following his strict rules and it worked! He tailored the ideas and training to our individual needs, the environment and our dog’s special behaviors. Even when we were doubting progress after a few days, he continued to stay in touch and work with us on any adjustments that suited our dog’s personality and needs. 2 months later and our dog is officially an outdoor dog!! No more pee pads in this home. We are so grateful for you Laz! Thank you!!

We can’t thank Laz, our dog trainer enough for the amazing difference he made in our dogs’ behavior! From the first session, it was clear that he really understood how to communicate with our two furry babies. I was afraid it wouldn’t work since the dogs are 5 and 4 years old with bad habits but thankfully I was wrong. He took the time to tailor each approach to fit their unique personalities(one with slight aggression and the other with extreme anxiety) and we’ve seen such a positive change since we started. Our dogs are not only more obedient but also happier, calmer, and more confident. He’s taught us exactly how to maintain and keep up with the training on our own so the dogs continue to improve. We’re thrilled with the results and highly recommend Laz to anyone looking to improve and help their dogs behavior. Thank you for making this enjoyable for us and our babies!

We had an incredibly positive experience working with Laz. From the very beginning, he was patient, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about what he does. Not only did we learn a lot of practical tips and tricks for training, but he also helped us better understand how our dog’s brain works — which made such a difference in our communication and bond with our pup.
Each session was both informative and fun, and we always walked away with new tools we could apply right away. His approach is thoughtful and tailored specifically to your dog, and it’s clear he genuinely cares about both the dogs and their families. We also really appreciate how he was always available over text in between sessions answering all our questions and concerns when we didn’t know what to do.
Over time, he’s become more than just a trainer — he’s become a good friend of our family. We’re so grateful for everything he’s taught us and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to build a stronger relationship with their dog.
