Testimonials
Incredible experience! We have a 1.4 year old husky/gsp rescue pup who likes to pull hard on walks, and has started showing signs of aggression like barking intensely and attempting to bite guests in our home. Needless to say we needed some serious help!
Alejandro agreed to take on our pup and he taught us some extremely helpful techniques. He seemed to know exactly what our pup needed and what we ourselves needed to learn in order to get our power back over the dog. He gave us clear and direct instructions which was super helpful. He’s also just an all around nice guy and a great teacher.
We stuck with it and just around 3 weeks later, we’ve seen amazing progress, way more than we ever expected to make in such short time. Our pup listens better, and walks have become SO much more enjoyable with him. He has also improved behavior with guests in our home, with our guidance, and has improved in small areas we haven’t even trained on. He respects us so much more in general.
We absolutely loved working Alejandro and are so grateful for his help. He gave us something we were beginning to lose. Hope!
-Alejandro’s Client
Alejandro is so great to work with! His confidence with our pups gave us confidence. Part therapist part dog trainer, he has a very no non-sense approach that really clicked for me and our dogs. I found his techniques easy to apply and continue to practice after our sessions. Our dog was so calm and content after sessions. We are very grateful for the progress we’ve made and eager to see what else we will learn.
-Alejandro’s Client
I can’t say enough great things about Alejandro and his dog psychology services! I have two boxers who used to go absolutely crazy on walks — constantly pulling on their leashes and making walks stressful for both me and them.
Alejandro came to my house to observe how I interacted with my dogs on our walks. After watching us, he explained why my actions were actually encouraging their pulling and gave me clear, practical advice on how to correct my behavior. It was eye-opening to realize that my own habits were a big part of the problem!
With his guidance, I learned how to communicate better with my dogs and establish calm, structured walks. The difference has been amazing — my boxers are so much more relaxed and responsive now.
I’m incredibly grateful for Alejandro’s help and the lessons I’ve learned. If you’re struggling with your dogs’ behavior, I highly recommend working with him. It truly changed our walks for the better!
