About ALPHA DOG TRAINING

“Dog training is fundamentally about building a strong, mutually beneficial relationship with your dog. A well-established bond is key to successful training. In contrast, an overemphasis on basic obedience that can undermine the connection a between dog and owner. Carrie MonteLeon of Alpha Dog Training has been “Making Dog Owners- Happy Dog Owners for over 30 Years!” Starting in the first 2-hour session, Dog Owners will see viable training results on the same day!! Alpha Dog Training works with dogs from 8 weeks to 12 years old. Many seek her well honed skills for on and off leash training, in addition to behavioral issues such as barking, bolting, biting, urinating in the house, and not coming when called

I have heard countless stories of pets pulling their owners, resulting in serious injuries. I received my Golden Retriever puppy for my 80th Birthday. I knew i would need help this time, from a professional trainer. Alpha Dog Training was recommended by a neighbor. Carrie has been positive, easy to work with and available at all times. Her knowledge of animals and their behavior is unsurpassed AND interesting! I've looked forward to each session and so has "Dickens." Not only has Dickens been trained, but I have been trained, which gives me the confidence I needed, to feel secure with my soon to be, very large, strong dog. Thank You Carrie! Shirley Swedloff

Carrie is amazing. My dog Havi started to show signs of aggression and I had no idea what to do. Carrie’s knowledge and patience is unmatched. I am so grateful I found her. The transformation has been incredible. Havi is now calmer, more confident, and actually listens — walks are enjoyable again, and visitors can finally come over without chaos. What impressed me most was how positive and encouraging the entire process felt. Every session was packed with practical tips that actually worked, and I saw progress almost immediately. If you’re looking for a trainer who delivers real results with kindness, expertise, and dedication, I cannot recommend Carrie enough. Absolutely five stars!

We have large dogs that needed training for mild aggression, listening to commands, and barking. Carrie was extremely knowledgeable and patient working with our dogs. She did a wonderful job teaching her methods in a way that left us confident and comfortable leading our dogs. They made huge improvements in behavior and met the goals we were looking to accomplish by using Carrie. Would definitely recommend her!

We couldn’t be more grateful for Carrie & Alpha Dog Training! We started with a skittish, unsure puppy, and through patience, consistency, and real expertise, she helped transform him into a confident, well-behaved, affectionate German Shepard Dog. The training approach was calm, positive, and incredibly effective — not just for our dog, but for us as owners too. We learned how to communicate clearly, reinforce good behavior, and build trust. Every step was explained, demonstrated, and supported. If you have a nervous or challenging dog and want real lasting results, we highly recommend working with Carrie. The difference in our dog is remarkable! Thank you Carrie!

Carrie literally saved my dogs lives. I adopted a new dog as a companion for my older dog. After three months they started fighting, causing thousands in vet bills. After working with Carrie they play together, sleep on the same bed, and can be walked together. I can't thank her enough for her help and guidance.
