SoCal Dog training -– Dog Trainer in Orange County”

We were going on a vacation when we decided to enroll our 6 year old Labrador Retriever on a Private bootcamp with Vladae. We only had a few days notice of booking before our trip, but Vladae still accommodated our dog. Our dog had a previous 2week board and train with another trainer, but we never saw a dramatic improvement. The only thing our dog learned was the command “sit”. Our yellow lab is very friendly to everybody to the extent that he always pulls and wants to jump on every dog and person he sees whenever we take him for a walk. Walking him hasn’t been very easy. During his private bootcamp with Vladae at his home. He was treated like their own family. We received photos, videos and updates on a daily basis even we’re overseas which we appreciate a lot. When it’s time to pick up our dear Walter(our dog) he allocated about 2 hours of his time to instruct my husband and teach him his ways of training our dog. To our surprise our Walter isn’t the same dog that we left with him 2 weeks prior. Our very hyperactive dog became a service dog that we can walk OFF-LEASH! Isn’t that amazing? Vladae is heaven sent to our family, not mentioning he considers us his family too. I would say he’s very strict, but that’s what you would expect from a world-class trainer; but in the end, everything will be worth it. But of course, it won’t stop there; as the owners of our dog have the responsibility to continue what Vladae has started, we have to follow and do the homework he gives us. He follows up all the time on our progress with our dog. We love Vladae and our family is very grateful for Vladae! He truly is a Russian Dig wizard, our Walter is the proof to it!

Our dog, Tex, completed boot camp a few months ago and is doing fantastic. We’re so thankful for Vladae’s patience, hard work, and expertise; it made a world of difference for us. If you are searching for training and guidance with your pup, Vladae’s knowledge and skill are unmatched. His training program was an absolute game-changer for us and we’re incredibly thankful we (including Tex) are able to work with him.

I am so thankful that we found SoCal Dog Training. We learned from the best - Vladae! He helped us understand our dog's needs and pinpointed exact solutions for various situations. With his guidance and our commitment to following through with what he taught us, our dog has come so far! We now have her following commands off-leash which we all enjoy. -Great investment for a very deserving dog that will last her lifetime!!!

We highly recommend SoCal dog training. The quality of training we have received has been phenomenal and the results have been outstanding. The methods that was used in our training was very gentle and felt that it even bettered our relationship with our dog. We saw immediate difference after our first session with our dogs behavior. Our friends/family cannot even believe the difference our dog. What we love about working with Vladae is that you can see he truly cares about his clients. However, you must follow his instructions and do homework! He keeps on constant communication with clients and provides feedback to set you up for success for the next class. He is very selective with his clients, but this is to make sure they can be successful in the end. Before we committed, we had a FaceTime session before we moved forward. This allowed us to connect and make sure we were a good fit for Vladae’s program. With regards to pricing, when we’re comparing prices his pricing is very reasonable considering his background and credentials. Bottom line, we highly highly recommend Vladae for training.

Vladae is truly incredible at what he does! It’s been 4 months since our girl completed his two week boot camp training and we could not be more please with the results. We are so grateful to Vladae who still takes time out of his busy schedule to answer our questions or simply check in to see how we’re doing. He does a great job of bonding with your pup and building that trust prior incorporating his training methods and it shows! Our girl absolutely loves him!
