Introduction: Focusing on improving relationships between dogs and their owners, a personal approach is used to help owners understand what their dogs want, and need. Problem behaviors often prevent owners from truly bonding with their dogs on a personal level. By learning more about your dog's personality, and advanced behavior modification I help you create appropriate behaviors in place of the problematic ones. I've received formal education through Animal Behavior College, Bergin University of Canine Studies, and Therapy Dogs International. I love hearing that people feel closer to their dog, and can enjoy their lifestyles more after working with me. Donating 15% of proceeds to charity allows me to feel good knowing Veterans will receive help from Therapy and Service Dogs.

Working with Lyndon was wonderful! He was incredibly professional, really cared about my needs, and offered so much more info than other trainers I've worked with. Great price, bonus for the money going to the nonprofit. Would recommend 100%

Lydone Villone is a top notch dog trainer whom I've worked with recently. He presents himself professionally, knowledgeable, and was very patient with both me and my dog during our session. He not only modeled and worked with my dog but then explained how, why, and when to use command which I really appreciated. His training was great and I'll definitely recommend his services to others in the future.

Mr. Villione was hired to stop my overly friendly golden retriever from jumping on everyone who came to the house. It was amazing to watch him work and his passion for his job. He went right to work getting to know my dog and basic training techniques. He then provided me with the tasks to work with my dog until our next class. They were simple, easy to understand, and very effective. So glad I found him.

Lyndon Villone is a natural with dogs. He takes the time to really evaluate and get to know each dog that he works with. He learns what motivates them and works with them at the pace that they need to be successful. When teaching people about dogs, he is patient and easy to understand. Lyndon explains his reasoning for how he trains and is always encouraging.
