Testimonials
“Luckily, I stumbled upon Alexandra. Her whole program is virtual, which I wasn’t sure about at first, but the training I’ve received has been more valuable than any of the in-person sessions I’ve done with other trainers.”
– Marilee L.
“Both of our dogs are more confident and much better citizens since they started training. Alexandra navigates Zoom training remarkably and we don’t feel like we’re losing anything from not having in-person sessions.”
– Cody H.
“Learning from Alex has been great and her method of training has been a fun and insightful process for both us and our puppy. We’ve made a lot of progress and always look forward to our next lesson and watching our bond with our puppy grow.”

About the Trainer
Dog Savvy Los Angeles offers private virtual dog training and behavior solutions designed to transform a dog’s behavior from anywhere. Their one-on-one programs aim to provide dog owners with the skills and confidence to resolve behavior issues quickly and effectively from the comfort of their home. They cater to puppies, rescue dogs, and existing furry companions needing manners training.
The business specializes in comprehensive puppy training, addressing issues like potty training, biting, destructiveness, fear, hyperactivity, and aggression using positive methods. They are experts in dog and puppy separation anxiety training, helping dogs overcome panic and destructive behaviors when left alone. Additionally, they provide training for problem barking and leash reactivity, aiming to improve a dog’s focus and self-control around distractions.
Dog Savvy Los Angeles employs a “game-based” training method, which they claim delivers immediate results and makes learning enjoyable for both the dog and owner. Their approach is force-free, compassionate, and science-based, particularly for aggressive dogs, focusing on modifying behaviors stemming from fear, frustration, possessiveness, or predation. The virtual format offers convenience, flexible scheduling, customized plans, and a stress-free learning environment, with ongoing support and access to recorded sessions.
