It might seem obvious, but life is so much easier with two well-trained dogs! I reached out to Lorenzo's Dog Training to work with my 4-year-old female Malamute, Luna, who was reactive to other dogs on walks and becoming increasingly aggressive and possessive of resources with our 9-year-old male Malamute, Rex.Rene from Lorenzo's came to our home for an initial assessment of both dogs. It was a bit of an embarrassing experience, to be honest! Both dogs were howling uncontrollably (which isn't their usual behavior), and we had a hard time getting them to settle down. Rene immediately noticed Luna's shift in behavior as she started to fixate on Rex before trying to attack him, and he had us create more distance between them.He suggested a 2-week board-and-train program for Luna to work on basic training and behavior modification, and at-home sessions for Rex to focus on basic obedience. Rex knew the commands, but being the stubborn Malamute that he is, he chose to ignore them!It was hard for me to let Luna go; I was so worried about her being away from home. But Rene sent updates, videos, and pictures of her progress, and I was amazed at how much she improved in just a few days! She was walking alongside other dogs without issue and even in the same room with them without trying to attack.While Luna stayed with Rene, we started at-home sessions for Rex, focusing on basic things like proper leash handling to set the foundation for the rest of the training.Eight sessions later for Rex, and after Luna's board-and-train, they are like new dogs! They both listen to commands when given; the selective listening is gone. They can both walk on and off leash—we even walked around Santana Row with them off-leash! Not distracted by other people or dogs.Friends and family have commented on how much better behaved they are. There isn't 160+ pounds of dog rushing the door when people come over. They don't beg at the table. I can unload groceries, cook, do anything without constantly telling them to move or not run out the door, no more repeating the same command over and over again. We can actually take them just about anywhere and know they will behave.These were all things I didn't consider when I reached out to Lorenzo's Dog Training. I was just hoping to fix some behavioral issues with Luna. Rene is the best. He was amazing to work with and has really improved our lives with the pups, and their lives as well. They both have more freedom now than they did before.I wish I reached out earlier. For our next pup, we're going to start this process from the beginning with Rene. Less

Had a wonderful experience with our trainer Janice. We have a Stradfordshire Bull Terrier/Pit mix that was nearly impossible to control, let alone take for walks. Janice took her for a week and we got her back calm and obedient. She also trained our family all about her behavior, why she behaves that way and how to handle it. Now that we have been trained, our pet experience is AMAZING. Thanks, Janice!!!! Less

Amazing results from caring, compassionate and knowledgeable trainers who love dogs SO much. Nai helped us turn our timid, skiddish bb into a calm & confident dog. We went from counter surfing and zero leash manners to long luxurious walks and beautiful table manners. 10/10 would recommend Nai as a trainer. She has a deep love and respect for dogs and the relationships we forge with them. Her knowledge and care put both humans and dogs at ease. Less

Renee at Lorenzo’s Dog Training was awesome. He is firm but does a great job explaining the technique and showing you how to preform them. It was well worth the investment into my dog. Janice and Nai from Lorenzo’s are also great trainers to work with in the Sacramento area. Less

We were referred to Lorenzo's by our neighbor after seeing how beautifully trained their puppy was. We have an Italian Mastiff and given their size and strength I wanted to feel comfortable being able to walk her and manage her and ensure she would listen. I can honestly say I have NEVER had a dog so well trained in my life. Rene was incredibly patient, because let's be honest, it's more about training the person than the dog! When and if we get another dog I will definitely be enrolling them in Lorenzo's!! Can not say enough good things about them. Less

Hands down the best training we’ve received with our rescue pitty Hunter. Rene and his team were alway punctual and patient with my husband and I throughout our training process. We constantly get complimented on how well behaved and trained our dog is and I always express how we couldn’t have done it without Rene from Lorenzo’s dog training team! Best investment we could’ve made. Less
