About Canine Movement Lab

Canine Movement Lab offers dog training in Chattanooga, TN for reactive, anxious, and sensitive dogs, as well as puppies and dogs with more complex behavioral needs. We offer support for dogs at all stages, including those with a bite history or more intensive behavioral challenges. Our approach looks beyond surface behavior and focuses on the underlying nervous system patterns that drive how a dog responds to the world. Rather than using force or focusing only on obedience, we help dogs build a greater sense of safety, regulation, and resilience. This allows for meaningful, lasting behavior modification, not just temporary management. Services include behavior consultations, reactive dog training, puppy training, and ongoing coaching.

I have a rescue named Astro and for the past few years I’ve struggled with handling him and navigating situations due to his reactivity towards people and other dogs. I found Leah and I’ve been working with her for the past 4 months. She has given me the best support, guidance, and resources to help me and my dog. Since I started the training program, Leah has always been super available for my questions and has given me tons of resources to pair with our private lessons. More recently, my dog has been doing daycare with her. She’s truly helped build a custom training program for my dog, from nutrition recommendations, to how to work my dog mentally and physically. I’ve seen how her somatic training has been therapeutic for healing my dog. I’ve never trusted someone more with my dog, and I’m truly grateful l I found her. I’d recommend Leah to anyone who could use some help with their pup. Whether your dog is reactive or your new puppy needs training, Leah is the best around. Most of all, she approaches each situation with empathy, and truly cares about you and your pet.

Leah was so great with my dog and family. My sweet boy came to me with some issues that Leah helped me figure out and gave me tools to help him overcome them. He is a calmer, happier, and more at peace dog.

HIRE LEAH SHE KNOWS WHAT SHES DOING!! My dogs are not the best socially, when you hire someone to deal with your babies you need someone who is confident in their skills & not fearful. Leah has beyond exceeded our expectations & is very flexible to work with. She is a wonderful addition to our family and am happy to refer her to anyone needing help with their pups. She gives us updates & checks on us. THANKS SO MUCH LEAH FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK!! 💕 xoxo Rose & Thanos.

I hired Leah to do a behavioral assessment for my young, mixed breed dog (German shepherd + golden retriever, 1-year old). Leah came to my house and - after observing Rockie in the house, yard, and on a short walk - she provided me with great insight into what it might take to help Rockie find some calm in environments that are overstimulating for him. Leah helped me as a handler by shifting my priorities to best help Rockie in the long-term. Leah did a great job of explaining the "why" behind the specific guidance she provided; it's evident to me that she understands the whole system that she was recommending to me. I also appreciate that Leah considered the entire environment that my dog was living in - not just Rockie's experience out on walks, but where he sleeps, how he eats, etc. After the behavioral assessment, Leah sent me lots of great resources that she has on hand and has been responsive to questions I've had. If you are willing to invest some money into improving your dog's experience (and your own experience as a handler!), then I'd definitely recommend working with Leah! It was worth it for me.

We have an American bulldog that does not like people. Leah has worked wonders with Rufus. She never gave up on him and was always very patient when working with him (and us). Rufus has come a long way thanks to Leah at Canine Movement Lab.
