The Cultured Canine

Lucas is a truly gifted trainer and extremely professional business owner. His dedication to his craft is something that is very tough to come by as many trainers are in it for a quick buck and are generally a lot less experienced than they pretend to be. Lucas is in it for the long haul and the betterment of all dogs lives. Since dog training is primarily about training the handler, communication is key. His training style is methodical, communicated in digestible chunks, and easy to follow. If you truly love your dog, and are willing to put in the required work, you absolutely will see the results you are looking for with him. You also will experience a brand new level of what it means to love your dog. Cultured Canine is the real deal.

Lucas and his team are truly amazing and very professional. Our Odin (great Dane) 1yr 1/2 year old andb130lbs was nipping, guarding, became very protective and unruly. He was becoming harder to deal with bc of his size. Lucas took the time to assess our dog. Where most trainers who met him labeled him aggressive and a bite threat. Lucas saw great potential and welcomed Odin into the Cultured Canine program. He made a suggestion of the 5-week Train& Board. ( more hard on mommy than Odin) Lucas team kept our family up to date with weekly progress reports, pictures, and videos. About 1 or 2 weeks before he came home, his team sent homework for us. Important words and techniques Odin was responding to. Odin is like a new dog he not so nervous around people. He doesn't guard anymore. He is easy to handle in all situations. He even got so many compliments at the vet that he didn't need a muzzle and was joy to be around. We are very grateful for the program and would highly recommend them. When Odin came, Lucas team spent 2 hours going over keywords, techniques, and suggestions that would help our home. Odin was trained on E collar, so they walked us through how to use this tool. Even when the program was over we could still communicate with Odin trainers ask questions we had they go back to us or even sent links for tools etc. We also do leash classes with his trainer to help our family be more comfortable walking him. We love Odin and am so thankful for their help. Thank you

Our girl was a handful... totally unmanageable for us. We tried private sessions with a different organization, but one hour a week wasn't helping. She was uncontrollable both in the house and was massively reactive to other dogs. We reached out to The Cultured Canine and were immediately impressed... from the first phone call. We decided to place her in a 5 week board-and-train program. We missed her terribly, but received weekly updates, which helped. She came home an entirely different dog. She walks nicely on a leash, knows several commands and actually listens to us. While she still has minimal reactivity to other dogs, she's still improving with every interaction. She's been home for just over 2 months and, while it's a lot of work, it's totally worth it to maintain her skills (and ours) and to continue growing our relationship with her. We have training sessions 3 times daily and she goes on 3-4 walks a day - all of which she's excited to do. She's worth it. She's now a lovely, wonderful, snuggly dog. We love that our 5 week program includes weekly classes and actually plan on continuing with those classes when the included months run out. We learn so much! The whole team has been incredible to work with and answers questions clearly and with suggestions. We invested in our furbaby and she is well worth it! Thank you to Lucas and the rest of the team! We love learning how to best teach and have fun with our girl. We cannot say enough positive things about The Cultured Canine!
