Jennifer Bobkoskie at Lorenzos Dog Training was a huge help in guiding us through training. We adopted Chili (Pitbull breed) when he was 4 and now he’s 7. His areas of concern were reactiveness with strangers in and out of the home, pulling during walks, and overall ignoring us. Lorenzo’s suggested basic obedience training to establish clearer lines of communication with Chili. As soon as we took him in for the evaluation we knew the style of training was going to have a positive impact on him. At the beginning of training, Jen helped us understand her method (dogs are pack animals and by default think they are the alpha) A big part of the training is to help Chili understand that we are the alphas and he doesn’t have to call all the shots or constantly be “on guard”. To help Chili understand this, we correct unwanted behavior and strictly make sure our commands are followed through. Chili came to understand that we are his leaders and he can relax, feel safe, and let us call the shots. Through the physical nature of training, Chili was able to change his perception of his role in our “pack” and we feel like our dog trusts us now more than ever to take the lead. The trust goes both ways as we can now trust him to be around strangers, and walks are more enjoyable. We feel a much stronger bond with Chili than ever before. Chili has progressed with: -staying in "heel" during walks -staying on his "spot" with people over -no longer growls or lunges at strangers -can lay down for an entire car ride -leaves the cats alone when they get our attention -can perform commands on or off leash Jen was super easy to communicate with. When she boarded Chili between weeks 2-3 of training, she updated us every day with pictures and progress reports. After the 8 sessions, Jen even came out for a follow up session to guide us through bringing someone new into our home. I couldn’t recommend Jen and Lorenzos Dog Training Team enough. I look forward to continuing to strengthen our bond with Chili using the tools and techniques Jen has taught us. Less

Lorenzo’s Dog Training Center exceeded our expectations, thanks to the incredible Jasmine Bland. She worked wonders with our 10-year-old dog, transforming her behavior with a perfect balance of discipline and encouragement. Jasmine’s ability to connect with dogs is truly remarkable—her training approach is firm yet filled with just the right amount of love. We couldn’t be happier with the results! Less

Lego and I couldn't be more grateful to Lorenzo and his team! Victor has been so patient and willing to help us. I think training Lego was easier then training me!🤣 Victor saw that we were struggling a bit, so he had Lorenzo observe. I had more to learn and they were willing to teach me! They are coming to our house today to help me at home. This has been a process. Owning a super hyper bulldog puppy is alot! At one point I was sure I made a mistake and wasn't going to be able to make this work. Thank God I called Lorenzos!!! I was doing EVERYTHING wrong. I am now learning how to give Lego the best life possible! Thanks again guys!!! We will be forever grateful! Less

Bruce Maldonado has trained multiple dogs for me. He is excellent with the dogs, as well as the family who is learning. the techniques are really good and the dog understand what is expected of them. Less

A big thank you to Eric Beck at Lorenzo’s dog training! We recently welcomed our first puppy (Maverick) into our busy family of 8. It was important to us to establish good habits from the beginning and Eric patiently taught us how to handle Maverick and establish a solid foundation. He even took Maverick for a long weekend when we needed a little extra support solidifying some of the commands - this was a big turning point in our success! After 8 sessions and our weekly practice we now feel confident in our ability to influence Maverick’s behavior. He lays in his spot while we eat dinner and remains down and calm amidst the chaos of our house and constant flow of kids and visitors. He also walks beautifully and has excellent car and kennel manners. Our whole family enjoys our loving, obedient, calm puppy. Logistically, Eric was a pleasure to work with. It was easy to find a mutually agreed upon time and place for our sessions. Eric was always prompt and professional. We so appreciated the communication, photos and updates he provided while our dog stayed with him! His love of dogs and passion for training is obvious and he was an excellent instructor for us and Maverick! We highly recommend him for all your dog training needs! Less

Bruce did a wonderful job with our dog. We were having a lot of trouble with him jumping up, chasing kids and dogs, pulling on the leash and fussing in his crate. Bruce has taught him and my Mother in law how to communicate, how Sherrie is the leader not her dog and has helped them both to attain the skills needed to have a very happy home. Her Rusty now sits on his spot nicely even with the grandkids running around, he is happy in his crate and walk patiently with her beside her wheel chair. He even helps her get items she has a hard time reaching and happily sits on her lap when he is invited to do so. Bruce was a God sent!! Less

Bruce did a fabulous job with our dog Rusty. Rusty had a very high energy level he was jumping up, charging doors and wouldn’t leave other dogs alone. Though he knew his commands he was very unreliable to listen or maintain. After Bruce’s training Rusty is amazing at staying on his spot no matter what is happening in the environment around him. He walks like a champ beside a wheelchair or a normal walk. He retrieves things when dropped and all in all is a whole new dog that we can thoroughly enjoy. Thank you Bruce for all of your help and patients! Less

Lorenzo's, specifically Bruce Maldonado, was recommended to us by our vet to help us with our two unruly rescues. We had tried "pet store" obedience training with one of our pups, but that did nothing for his reactivity and overall fear of people and other dogs. Both of our dogs pulled when being walked on leash, frequently barked at pedestrians from our house, and struggled to follow basic commands. Now our pups are so much better! A firm "no" goes a long way with both of them. They are crate trained and rarely bark indoors. I can now walk them by myself without getting pulled down the sidewalk! You have to be willing to commit to the training and be consistent with your dogs for the best results. When we started training with Bruce I made it very clear that I wanted to keep my dogs in my home during the training. He still agreed to work with us and came by once a week to teach us new training steps to improve our pups' behavior. I am grateful for all of the skills that we learned to communicate to and control our dogs. Less

Bruce Maldonado was very helpful to me and my GSD Sunny. Sunny had just finished puppy class with a different training group. She was ready to advance to the next level with this group but I felt like she wasn’t challenged enough with what was offered.A friend recommended Lorenzo’s training and to ask for Bruce. Bruce helped train me along with my dog. He was very patient and helpful during our time together .I have called Bruce with questions or suggestions and he is always ready to help. Less

Bruce was the trainer for our daughter’s German Shepherd. She just didn’t listen and was aggressive towards animals and people before the training. The first day Bruce came in we saw a noticeable difference and by the end of six lessons she was walking off leash and a super good girl! It seems like a miracle, but it was 20 minutes of training three times a day and Bruce coming with his dog once a week to show us what we needed to do to make our girl comfortable and us comfortable. Can’t say enough about how good this training was. I highly recommend Lorenzo‘s Dog Training and Bruce Less

Our two rescues had very little socialization skills with other dogs and often had high anxiety. We tried a lot of different approaches but ultimately decided on using Jenn when one of our dogs bit the other one during play requiring a few stitches. After training they have less anxiety and have skills to help manage themselves. Our walks in our neighborhood have gone from terrible situations with one or both dogs going crazy at the sight of another dog a block away to both being able to heel and quietly walk by dogs in a yard. This means we also have less anxiety when we take our dogs out and about, and they are able to go out with us more. They are getting better each day as most importantly we feel we have tools to guide and teach our dogs what is expected of them. Friends and family have noticed the difference when they come over and comment on how our dogs are much more at ease now. Jenn Bobkoskie was and is very helpful as she still checks in on us just to make sure everything is going well- and our dogs love her! Less

We recently adopted a two-year-old yellow mixed Labrador rescue pup Ollie and were in need of some professional guidance to help Ollie adjust to his new home. Bruce Maldonado from Lorenzo Dog Training came highly recommended by a friend of a friend, and we couldn't be happier with the results. From the very first session, Bruce's expertise and genuine love for dogs were evident. He quickly assessed our pup's needs and tailored a training plan that addressed his specific behavioral issues. Bruce's patience and positive reinforcement techniques worked wonders, transforming our energetic but unruly Labrador into a well-behaved and happy member of our family. Bruce was always punctual, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. He provided us with valuable tips and techniques to continue reinforcing good behavior at home. Our dog not only learned basic commands but also developed a stronger bond with us through the training process. We are so grateful to Bruce and Lorenzo Dog Training for their exceptional service. If you're looking for a dog trainer who truly understands and cares about your furry friend, we highly recommend Bruce. Thank you for helping our pup become the wonderful companion we knew he could be! Ken and Kelly Mace --- Less

I would highly recommend Jennifer Bobkoskie and Lorenzo's Dog Training to anyone interested in having their dog trained and having incredible results. My parents took their dog to Lorenzo's and had amazing results so I decided that it was time for me to have my dog trained there as well. I adopted my dog when she was 12 weeks old and did not take her to be trained until she was a little over a year but I wish I had earlier. She knew just the basic training before like sit, down, and stay, but it was only when she wanted to listen, she was reactive towards other dogs and some people on walks, and I could not trust her off leash because she would just run and not come back like it was a game of keep away. Now after working with Jen she is a completely changed pup in her aspects of training, she of course still has all her quirky character traits and spunkiness. I feel more than comfortable taking her off leash in public around other dogs people and any situation that we may encounter like loud noises. Our walks have completely changed now from me avoiding walking by other dogs to being able to confidently walk past any dog with her being comfortable and in a perfect heel position. I can enjoy doing more things with my dog now like going to patios and many other places in public that I could not before. My dog and my relationship has grown so much more now after training. My friends and family have even complemented me on how my dog is now and how great the training turned out. Jen was everything I could ask for and more in a dog trainer. While my dog was away for training she gave many updates and sent many pictures and communicated well with me so that my mind was at ease while sending my best friend to be trained. During our training sessions Jen made teaching me the training very simple, easy to understand, and then do. When I was struggling with an aspect of the training I would bring it up during one of our sessions and she would provide me with solutions that worked amazing and helped influence my dog to follow the training Jen taught her and she knew, but that she was struggling with me. My dog was in great hands with Jen and I knew she truly cared about her and saw the bond they made and leaving the last session seeing her say goodbye to my dog solidified that I knew she was very well loved in her training. I would highly recommend Jen to anyone looking to have their dog trained and it is a no brainier for me that everyone of my dogs I ever get I will send to Jen to train them too. Less

I would like to thank Bruce Maldonado for his training expertise in training Beau and I. Beau was quicker to learn than myself and I thought the shock collar would work better on me. All kidding aside he is a happier dog as a rescue. I was gone 2 weeks and happy to say my boy is still doing well.Bruce was patient with both of us and just kept us repeating our paces so both of us could learn. I have had 5 other dogs and never believed he would actually train off leash. But here we are... I am watering flowers and he is in the down stay.Thank you.Donna Fleck.See old dogs can learn new tricks. Referring to myself Less

I would recommend Bruce from Lorenzo's dog training for every dog! He came to our house and worked with our dog (who was a rescue puppy). He was aggressive and I have three kids. Max is a total different dog, it saved us from having to rent our dog! Less

Bruce Maldanado from the Lorenzo’s Dog Training Team did an excellent job helping me save the life of our aggressive young dog. When I found out that there was a good chance Gunther may be euthanized for attempting to bite my grandkids if I returned him to the dog warden I reached out to him for help. The training he has provided for me and the dog has made a huge difference and I’m convinced that we are on the path to having a well behaved and trustworthy dog. Less

The team at Lorenzo’s has given my dog a new sense of confidence! Coming from the pound my dog Bill had a few issues to say the very least. After speaking with other trainers and even trying reinforcement training methods provided by a close friend nothing seemed to work. My dog is now well behaved and my actual ally instead of the thorn in my side he was before. I am pleased with my training and felt compelled to leave a review. No person is perfect, no dog is perfect, yet my dog and I have never been closer thanks to Lorenzo’s training. Less

Julia did a complete 360 turn around with my 2 yr old rescued female German Shepherd who was abused, abandoned with food aggression and lack of confidence she was alwsys in fear. Not only did she help her but she also helped me tremendously in keeping up on training and reinforcement with Sam. Sam finally understands and respects me as her alpha/pack leader. I couldn't of asked for a better trainer!!! Thanks so much Julia!!! Less

We used CJ from Lorenzo’s dog training and couldn’t be any happier. He made so much sense of everything we asked or everything he saw in our dog. Our dog was jumping on us and digging holes in the yard.. our dog now is well mannered and listened to any command we give. I’d recommend cj to anyone with any dog. He’s very patient and you can see his passion in these pups. Less

I highly recommend Bruce Maldonado as a trainer. We rescued our dog Chloe when she was about nine months old. Chloe had separation anxiety to the point that required medication and was so difficult on walks that she broke my wife’s wrist by pulling her over. Chloe would also not tolerate crating. Bruce educated us on dog behavior and how to earn Chloe’s respect. Within seconds he got Chloe in the crate and amazingly she never had a problem going in for any us after that. Now she runs there as a safe place when my son is antagonizing her! These days walks are relaxing since Chloe knows to stay on our left side. My daughter often walks her in the neighborhood without a leash and multiple neighbors have commented on how well she behaves. You won’t be disappointed in Bruce if you follow his recommendations. He trains dogs because he loves them and doesn’t want to see negative consequences from behavioral issues. It also helps that he was gifted a perfect voice for dog training. Part of me thinks I could be a good trainer too with that voice! Less

Old dogs really can learn new tricks! You will not find better than Lorenzo’s Dog Training Team! After having a newborn baby, we determined it was important to have our three large dogs (ages 10, 8 and 1) trained for safety reasons. After much research, we landed on LDTT. We had a virtual evaluation with Lorenzo himself. We discussed each dog individually and our goals for each dog. He reviewed the training program and assigned us two INCREDIBLE trainers. The communication at LDTT is unmatched. After the evaluation, James (our point person at LDTT) was accessible and easy to talk with to help us setup our sessions. I have to admit, we were a bit skeptical of how training would go with our older dogs. Our trainers, Julia and Victor, came to our house each session and were extremely patient with not only our dogs, but with us and juggling a newborn during training sessions. In fact, Victor pushed our daughter around in the stroller when she was being fussy while Julia taught the lesson! During this time, two of our dogs were boarded with the trainers and treated them as if they were their own. The most impactful lessons learned after training were: walking on leash without pulling, ignoring distractions while walking on leash, and sit/stay in place while in the house. We never knew we could cook and eat dinner without an audience of three dogs in the kitchen! LDTT has it together from beginning to end. I can’t recommend them enough! 10/10! Less

We had worked with Lornzo’s a few years ago with our husky, but we never finished his training. Once we had our second dog, we knew we wanted to go through Lorenzo’s again as we had a great experience with them the first time! Our second dog had some aggression issues, so we met with Lorenzo and his team where they were able to address all of our concerns and put our minds at ease! This time, we worked with Victor who took great care of our dogs! He was able to build a relationship with our aggressive dog! Victor has provided us with great tools to be responsible dog owners. We always get commended on how well behaved they are. Even though they’ve finished their training, Victor is always kind enough to answer any questions we have promptly and with great insight! We highly recommend working with Lorenzo’s if you want top tier training that’s going to be well worth your money. Big thanks to Lorenzo, his team and especially Victor! Less

My dobie was having some behavioral issues following my recent move. I had always wanted to get her into training for pulling on leash, not listening to me, and overall anxiety. Julia was an amazing trainer! She was super attentive and explained everything so well throughout the on leash training. I've already gotten so many compliments on my dog's behavior, and even my friends and family have noticed the difference in her confidence level. 10/10 will recommend forever. Less

Bruce Maldonado came highly recommended to us after seeking out a dog trainer on a local Facebook community page, and we couldn’t be happier. Ottie is our four year old English Setter—he was impossible to walk on a leash, listened to commands pretty selectively, and was so anxious in the car that he chewed through seatbelts and headrests. Bruce taught us a lot about having influence over the dog, making him think, and challenging him in a way that played off his natural instincts. We took things slow, but stayed consistent—and most importantly, we trusted the training process and tried to do everything Bruce instructed. Ottie has always been a really good boy, but after training, he’s an excellent listener and it’s clear he finally trusts us to take the lead. Less

TOP NOTCH TRAINING FACILITY. I Heard about his Company year's Ago&Was there with A Good friend whom has a dog he is training&I got The pleasure of Meeting Lorenzo didn't catch his last night But was A Great meeting.I had Dog's&Just affiliate with my brother's&My buddy.NONE Other. Less

Hey friend! I'm so excited to share my review of the dog training facilities I visited. The place was pawsome! The facilities were super clean, and the staff was knowledgeable and caring.

***update **** 2/13/24 Julia is THE best trainer , so patient Just started program this week , wow what a difference 1 session makes with our pitty - can’t wait to complete program , he is finally calm3 weeks in , we are all happy especially our pup Less

My mom's 11 month old miniature poodle was a holy terror. He was aggressive, defiant and head strong. In only one week's time Remy's trainer, Felton, made astounding progress. It was as if Remy was an entirely new dog. Felton is so patiennt and kind with also teaching my mom how to manage the doggo to get the same results. Seeing the difference was mind blowing. My mom is so happy and not stressed out anymore and she can actually enjoy her pup as she should. I can't thank this team enough for thier training. If you are in need of training for your dog, please choose Lorenzo and his team. You will not regret it. Less

My dog was filled with fear and anxiety before we came to Lorenzo’s trainers. I had tried other training techniques, but nothing seemed to stick… until now. My dog, Cash, is so much better behaved with so much less fear and anxiety. Both he and I are happier and more confident than ever! Thanks to Amanda Rehmer and Alicia Knight in Montana! Less

Could not recommend our trainer Joe more! We have learned so much from him and his absolutely amazing demo dog Summer that we have been able to implement with our two pups. Joe is so patient with all of our questions and always willing to help no matter what time of day! It was really my husband and I that needed the training, not our dogs 😂 So grateful we found Lorenzos and Joe! Less

Joe without a doubt the best trainer I’ve ever interacted with. He and summer have not only trained my dog to a phenomenal level but also taught me how to reinforce that training and keep Ovi on the right track (not always easy with a Belgian Malinois/Great Dane) Less

We had been through (3) other dog trainers, including a very expensive weeklong away camp–and still had some vexing challenges with our 2.5 year old Husky/German mix. We needed the tools and techniques to get confident in our ability to control her leash aggression and sporadic response to commands. Savannah and Blue really changed the game for us. It really works, folks. Think of it as an investment that will make a life-changing difference in both the relationship and peace of mind for you and your pet! Less

I adopted an 18 month old pit bull mix in January. Seemed like the perfect dog, we clicked from the beginning until she decided she ruled my house. We had not established trust or leadership when I called Joe at Lorenzo’s. He lives in my neighborhood and has a good reputation. We set up an evaluation and Parker stood at the door and just barked at Joe. She was a very fearful and unhappy young dog. So I set up training with Joe. He took her for about a week. on her first day with him she was walking on a loose leash instead of yanking him everywhere. He brought her back for her first in home session. I learned a bunch of handling and we spent the next week practicing. The change in this dog over the last month is just amazing. She has gone from just being a pet in my house to a happy companion. I pick up her leash and she is happy and ready to work. Joe is there supporting us with answers every time I ask. The key to this training is training the owner and this is exactly what Joe is doing. Everyday through practice and utilizing the training sheets Joe provides after each session I have learned more and more about working with Parker and trusting her. I highly recommend Lorenzos and even more specifically Joe! Less

Joe Dybala worked wonders on our dog, Cooper. We had tried everything we could think of to help with his anxiety and aggression over the first year. Nothing helped. We were scared to have friends or family at our home because he was even showing aggression towards us. Within 15 minutes of Joe being at our house for the in-home eval, Cooper was lying quietly at his feet. We knew we had to send him for training. Five years later and it’s still the best decision we could have ever made! We couldn’t imagine our lives without our buddy! Less

We are currently in a training program with Lorenzo’s and Joe is the best trainer we could ask for! He is so helpful, readily available to answer call or texts and is communicative about our sweet Arya. Our puppy (7 months old, 91lbs) is a Caucasian shepherd and he has shown us not only how to control our emotions but hers as well. She loves being apart of the pack, especially with her girl Summer! I am in awe and impressed how Joe has trained Summer to her fullest of capabilities of understanding and work. She is an incredible dog, and any dog owner would be lucky to have Joe & Summer as their trainers! I know we are! 😊 Less

Just got to give the most amazing trainer Joe and his dog Summer a big round of applause. They are incredible with the skill set that Summer has been trained and the training knowledge and handling by Joe Dybala. Joe has with worked with multiple of our family dogs over the years and it’s just absolutely incredible what Joe does with a dog on his first visit. Less

We're so thankful to have had Joe's expertise in training our two extremely different dogs, an energetic Bernedoodle and an incredibly fearful Labradoodle. He tailors his approach to address the problem behaviors of each dog. Joe provides helpful insight into why the dog is behaving a certain way, and what role we as owners/leaders play. We appreciate the way he works with the whole family, kids included, so that the training is consistent and effective. We highly recommend Joe, he is both incredibly passionate and extremely talented at what he does. Less

Lorenzo's dog training is a great option for your dog training. We are working with Joe in the Cleveland area and he is great. Pretty amazing what he can do with these dogs. So happy we have Joe as our trainer definitely recommend. Less

Joe at Lorenzo’s has been absolutely amazing. I rescued a pitbull a year ago, she is roughly 7, and she is just a ball of love. Unfortunately, she was treated horribly by her past family, kept in a wire cage and solely used as a mama, and she had severe aggression towards men. Joe was able to work with her to influence positive experiences and behaviors toward everyone and completely turned her around. Joe and I continue to work with her, to build on those positive behaviors, and help Miss Nora to become the best that she can be, to few safe, loved and confident. She is now a “neighborhood mom”, with all of the neighborhood kids being her children. They can come and go as they please and she is always so excited to see them. Joe has been an amazing asset to our lives and I am eternally grateful for him and Lorenzo’s. Less

Joe Dybala trained my 5 year old pitty mix Nala and we had a great experience. Joe set up an evaluation with her as soon as I reached out. My main focus was with her aggression towards other dogs due to a previous incident this past year and her being very protective of myself. Joe brought his dog Summer to evaluate Nala and it was amazing to see. Summer is a very highly trained dog and was able to show Joe exactly what he needed to see to properly train our Nala. Joe and Summer have an amazing bond built off of trust and to be able to have that with my Nala is so important. With just one week of Nala being with Joe, she went from not even being able to be in the same room with another dog to being around multiple without as much aggression as she had when I first reached out. That itself along with walks, crate training and day to day habits- I have seen a huge improvement on. I recommend Joe and Summer to everyone I know that has a dog, I have never felt more comfortable having her with Joe. It is never too late to build that trust and bond with your dog & I am so happy to have had the opportunity to have him train Nala, myself and my fiancé for us to be the best leaders for Nala and to keep up on the things Joe has shown us for her to live a better, healthier life. I can’t wait to see how much more she improves over the next couple training sessions. Lorenzo’s is a great company and I am so happy that Nala is in wonderful hands when she is there! Less

Joe and his pack (lead by the most amazing dog I’ve ever seen, Summer is her name…just wow!) is such a great team to teach our black lab puppy. He is is 9 mo old now and is the best behaved lab we have ever had!!! He is calm, stays in spot, walks beautifully on lead and comes when we call every time!!! I can’t say enough good things about Joe. Less

When Joe Dybala first came to my house, my little 4 lb Winnie was afraid of him and Summer. Through awesome training and care from Joe, Winnie now travel state with him, and performs demonstrations. I couldn't be happier with the training I received from Lorenzo's. She is a very happy, well-behaved little dog, and I wish I would have used Lorenzo's in the past for the other dogs I had. I have referred him to several people, and they were very happy! Less

I first noticed some small signs of aggression with my great dane and after calling Lorenzo's dog training team I was soon in contact with Jessica. She helped me notice the fear signs in my dog and soon enough we started his simple obedience. I absolutely love the outcome I had. My dog no longer reacts to other dogs in public, pulls on the leash, and he doesn't ignore me when I try to give him a command. He truly is a well rounded dog now and I don't have to have an overwhelming sense of worry when I go to the dog park! I get compliments on his behavior all the time when I go out in public. Jessica always had timely responses and addressed my concerns head on. I truly recommend her as she helped me so much with my fur baby! Less

I recently inherited an eight year old husky with puppy-like energy. She had very little experience on-leash walking. Luis Garcia began working with her and I watched his dog knowledge—transferring his calm and confidence to Luce. The bigger issue was transferring that calm and confidence to me. With Luis’ amazing patience and encouragement, Luce and I are really enjoying our walking like real companions. Luis has also given me great advice on how to influence Luce’s behavior with some food guarding issues. I highly recommend working with Luis if you have any concerns or issues with your dog. Less

Lorenzo’s team and facility are amazing. Extremely knowledgeable and caring trainers that went out of their way to support our family and help our dog. We would definitely recommend Lorenzo’s, and we are very thankful for Victor and Rasheed and all of their hard work! Less

Bruce Maldonado from Lorenzo's has been helping train the dogs in our rescue for over a year now and he truly has been such a blessing for us and for the dogs ! He has helped the dogs in our care gain confidence. He has helped many different personalities, from reactive aggression all the way to just basic obedience. Almost each dog was under threat to be euthanized before we pulled them . Bruce has always been so easy to work with and so very passionate about helping all of them . Without Bruce we wouldn't have been able to help these dogs and now each one of them is in a loving home ! His ability to build these dogs confidence and not only train the dog but train the owners in a manner of thoroughly explaining the ways and answering every question kindly . Our experience here has been nothing but amazing . Less

I went through Lorenzo’s training and I couldn’t be more pleased with the progress I’ve seen in my canine friend! The trainer I had was, Bruce Maldonado. He went through every step, as to what specifically we had asked to be informed for the training of our dog. It was amazing to see the progress increase over such a short period of time. All while being consistent with Bruce’s tips and tricks, to exponentially increase the influence and bond with our dog. Highly recommend checking out Lorenzo’s program and Bruce M. for the training of your canine friend as well. 5 STARS! Less

Bruce from Lorenzo's Dog Training Team was very knowledgeable and professional. He brings a very common sense approach to his training techniques. The information we learned has helped immensely. Less

We would give 10 stars to Bruce Maldonado for helping us with our puppy, Eli! He helped us with our challenges when Eli protested in going on walks with us, when Eli wouldn't stay where we placed him, among other things. Bruce is amazingly knowledgeable, but more than that, he's been super patient with us as he led us in training Eli. We have full confidence that he can handle your dog too! Less

We most definitely recommend this company to anyone who really needs that helping hand and knowledge to successfully live in a stress free household with your furry best friends. Bruce really changed our outlook on being dog owners and helped us to gain the confidence and skills to influence our dogs into trusting us and respecting us. We didn’t want to have babies yet because we didn’t feel comfortable bringing infants into our home with our dogs due to the fact they were super energetic and very jumpy. Not to mention the one of our dogs struggled with food aggression and would growl to show dominance to our oldest daughter. With Bruce’s help we were able to dissipate these behaviors and were able to learn the best way to effectively communicate our dominance to our dogs, letting them know they can trust our decisions and we will keep them safe and happy. We now feel so much more comfortable with the idea of bringing a newborn into our home, and having them grow with our furry family members! Less

I found Jacob Perez and Kelly Rzonca through a veterinarian recommendation because I needed help with my very reactive German Shepard mix. I really appreciated how quickly they responded to all our inquiries and offered to start helping right away, but Jacob and Kelly’s skill and passion for training my dog was undeniable once we began working together. They did an in person evaluation and identified needs and training opportunities specific to my dog and I during our first meeting. Some trainers I used in the past helped a little, but Jacob and Kelly were able to improve my dogs behavior and obedience to a level I wasn’t aware was possible for my dog. More than anything else, they taught me how to confidently and correctly handle my dog. They’re training has improved my dogs life greatly as he is no longer excessively stressed and barking at other dogs on leash or in the yard, and made dog ownership a much more rewarding experience for me. I would recommend the Lorenzo’s Dog Training team to anyone! Less

Bruce Maldonado was highly recommended by our veterinarian when we were discussing challenges with our puppy appearing overly afraid of people he didn’t know. Bruce was very forthright in explaining the techniques, as well as the psychology of a puppy facing their introduction to the world. It took less than five minutes for Bruce to have our puppy laying by his side relaxed! My wife and I had a difficult time believing what we were seeing! We signed up for a training program and we learned the proper methods and techniques to train our puppy. The training sessions laid the foundation for meeting all the training goals we hoped for with our puppy! Our puppy now walks side by side with us, he understands all the most important commands that will benefit his safety, both on and off leash! More importantly, the training built up his confidence as he is no longer fearful of the world he lives in! We would highly recommend Bruce! Less

I have been working specifically with Bruce and I can honestly say he has restored my hope and confidence with my dog being able to be around people and other animals. I was referred to Bruce by a good friend of mine, after already going to 3 trainers and spending a lot of money in the 3.5 years of having my dog. I had been told by previous trainers that there was nothing they could do, keep her in a crate, muzzle her, etc. To say I was hesitant at first going in was an understatement, but as soon as I saw him work with my dog during the consultation within 2 minutes, I knew I was going to get the results I had been looking for. He really does put all his effort into each and every one of his clients and is a very standup, respectable man. Bruce also works with the dog and owners to get the results they want and what works best for their lifestyle. From teaching dogs to run off leash by their owners who training for marathons, or reactivity training to allow a dog to be a part of events and family outings. I am still working with Bruce at this point, but in the amount of time that my dog and I have been working with him, she has show an increase in confidence and has made monumental strides in the right direction that has not been reached with any other trainer before. Not only does he put effort into the dog but he puts effort into the owners/handlers if that dog to teach and educate them, which is something that was never valued with previous training. To say I’m pleased is an understatement, and I cannot wait to see where remaining training sessions take us. Less

I initially called Bruce Maldonado for my puppy but, upon meeting him decided that my older dog would benefit from his help the most. He did not disappoint! He helped to ease my anxiety and Chewys! HIGHLY recommend Bruce! Less

This has been nothing short of a fantastic experience. Bruce specifically has made our life so much easier now that we have a calm and happy dog. I would recommend Bruce and Lorenzo's to anyone who needs help. Less

Before Bruce, our dog Ziggy was highly reactive and dog aggressive. We were looking for solutions so he could share the home with our two young children. Ziggy stayed with Bruce for two weeks, returning to us a happier, healthier, well behaved dog. The transformation gave us the tools and trust we needed to keep our loved pet and help him be his best. Bruce was patient, kind, and firm. He was a pleasure to have at our house, and by the end of training, he felt like family. Any future dog we have will be visiting Bruce from the start. He will set them up for a long life of good behavior and healthy boundaries. Less

I cannot give enough stars to our trainer Bruce Maldonado. When I say that he has changed our lives, I mean it quite literally. We have 2 beautiful dogs that we love with all of our hearts, but we were in quite a predicament. Our 3 year old Golden Retriever had been through a K9 off leash program as a puppy and that did absolutely nothing for us. If anything, the lack of actual training they gave us further amped up his aggressive behavior. He had been very food aggressive at the time and just wouldn’t listen at all. We ended up just feeding him alone because we had spent all this money on training and it did nothing. Believe it or not, we got another dog! This time, a German Shepherd. He has zero aggression, but of course needed training. I attempted to take both dogs on a walk by myself…BIG mistake. They saw another dog and both became super reactive. They ended up pulling me to the ground and dragging me as they attempted to chase the dog. The GR has bit every single one of us in an attempt to show us who’s boss. We were very seriously contemplating rehoming him, but as you can imagine that thought broke our hearts. A friend of mine referred Bruce to us and explained a little bit about what he did for her dogs. I was thrilled at the prospect of him helping us, but I could never have imagined how much he would change our lives. We have a COMPLETELY different GR. Whereas before, he could care less when we gave him commands, it is now evident that we have influence over him. He is now respecting us and we haven’t had any incidents of biting. Bruce has also alleviated a ton of anxiety from our 1 year old GSD. I was able to take them for a long walk together without having them be reactive or drag me down the road!! We were also able to take them on a beach vacation with us AND take them off leash! All in all, I can’t recommend Bruce enough. He will absolutely exceed your expectations. Less

Felton Conway has been so wonderful with our 5 month old mini golden doodle, Dewy. He is firm but oh so gentle with him and has prepared me well to be able to handle Dewy at home. Within a matter of two weeks, Dewy has became a much better behaved pup yet still remains his happy go lucky self. Highly recommend! Less

Nathan is not just a dog trainer. He is what we should all strive for in a person. He is a dedicated father, husband and a multi dog owner himself. I have had the privilege of meeting some of his dogs who are the best behaved and super friendly. This allows me a glimpse into his character as I observe his love for them. With qualifications like this how could I not trust him with my fur baby. Both in boarding and training. It is extremely difficult to train obedience, on and off leash training, etc.. a Shihzu and he did it.!! Janet Less

When we realized we weren’t cut out to train our husky, Zander, on our own - it was time to call for professional help! We were referred to Nathan and Amanda, and these two were an absolute godsend! Not only the best trainers, but all around good people. Day one, when I saw how Zander responded to Nathan I knew this was the right choice. I really can’t say enough good things about this program. Each member of our family can now effectively communicate with our dog. He is happier, we are thankful, and the other pets in the household are appreciative. This has really been an amazing turnaround and we cannot thank you two enough! Less

This company is the best in the business! Joe Dybala has been training my Charlie girl, Charlie was very abused at 5 months old before we adopted her & she is afraid of EVERYONE. Joe is helping Charlie to break down those barriers so that she can live her best life. Joe is absolutely an Angel on earth, he is so patient, kind, understanding, & has a huge heart of gold. I don't know what we would have done without Joe & Lorenzo's Dog Training Team. The people who abused Charlie were also nice to her at times & this is why she is afraid of everyone. Joe is patiently peeling back the layers to help Charlie trust again. I can't say enough about Joe & his team, I know Charlie is safe in Joe's hands during this transition. If you are looking for an honest, faithful, will bend over backwards company to help you then Lorenzo's is definitely the best. Joe came out & gave us a free evaluation & spent quite a bit of his time to show us some of the things that we needed to see to help Charlie. If I could give Lorenzo's 100 stars I would. Charlie will now have a great chance to live her best life ❤ Less

We completed a 6 week training course with Felton and it was an excellent experience. Our dog had been resistance to training and we thought it wasn't going to be possible so reached out to Lorenzos for help. After boarding our dog with Felton for a week he came back a different dog, one that knew all his commands and was such a good boy :). After 6 weeks of further training with Felton we're now able to do off leash walks as well. Thank you Felton. Highly recommended. Less

We met Alicia at our local vet and she was amazing to work with from the start. From the evaluation to our final training session, Alicia and Amanda were so kind and patient with our chocolate lab, Gunner. He is still his happy go-lucky self with a little more self control and understanding. I would highly recommend them to anyone who are looking to train the dog(s). Less

Felton did an amazing job with my Pheebee !!! She came because she was charging other dogs and now she acts like they aren’t even there !!! Thank you so much for everything!!! Less

Bruce Maldonado was an excellent dog trainer, he helped us with our dog Nash that was reactive to other dogs. He did a great job teaching us and the dog. After the training his behavior improved significantly and through out the training he taught us how to handle him safely. I have already refereed Bruce to a friend of ours. Less

I can’t give enough praise to Lorenzo’s Dog Training and in particular Spence. He did an amazing job with my pup and with me. Spence patiently instructed me on how to influence positive behavior in my dog and how to give proper “parental” correction. Now my dog has more confidence and trust in me and I have more confidence in myself. I am learning to be the leader of my pack and really enjoying my fur baby so much more. My puppy now properly walks on the leash and obeys necessary commands. Such a win. Kudos to Spence and LDTT. Thank you for making a huge difference in my life. Less

Our German Shepherd, Jackson, was very aggressive towards other dogs and we were thinking we’d never be able to bring him to family gatherings since everyone else brought their dogs. Nate blew our minds when, in less than an hour, he had Jackson walking next to his dog Noelle and even laying beside her!! This has been the best experience for us and Jackson! Less

Our 70# goldendoodle was becoming impossible. Barking, counter surfing, leash aggression, refused to calm when anyone was in our house. He was injuring visitors out of sheer excitement and jumping. With 6 weeks of training he is now sitting when we tell him, walks on leash, leaves things alone, in general able to be part of the family vs. being locked away whenever someone is around. We are so grateful for Nathan and his training. Less

Amanda has been super patient and really encouraging to our family. She has really supported us and helped us learn and were super happy with the results so far!!! Less

We recently completed training for our German shepherd, Jack. He came to us an unruly 6 month old and is now such a good boy! Nathan and Amanda have been great, were easy to work with and really enjoy what they do. Highly recommend! Less

I Run 911 Dog Rescue / Amy’s Adoptable’s We are a Registered 501(c)(3) Non-profit I am aware people have very strong feeling about dog training. Please know we are very aware of multiple types of training. Although all dogs , just like a child learn very differently. There is room for everyone as long as respect & research is followed. I unfortunately have to deal with several dogs no body wants ( typically no fault of the animal) if they have any anxiety or fear that can cause fear biting . In these situations it can be the difference between a dog being euthanized or being rehabilitated! Joe Dybala has shown us a VERY RESPECTABLE & RESPONSIBLE way to save these animals lives . All who know myself & Joe on a personal level know that we live and breathe for # 1 our Families including our animals # 2 Our love & RESPONSIBILITY to our passion for animals. My personal Dog Tully a very large 128# lab has learned his simple basic obedience with Joe . My concern was ….. if a door opens , I have a responsibility to keep my dog safe. I did a CORRECTION 2 x and Tully no longer approaches the door to run out and get hit by a car. That is it 2 times ! I would rather do a FIRM ( no screaming but calm and cool & quick and effective correction) as apposed to screaming and yelling . Tully also knows when approaching people he is not to jump and knock anyone over . As a child approached he knows to lay on his back. Joe is a very competent and effective professional trainer. If you are willing to put the work in then you will have knowledge that will last a lifetime to ensure you are a responsible dog owner as well as a confident dog that lives fear free . We humanize our animals ( I myself am guilty ) Tully is spoiled rotten ! ALTHOUGH we owe it to our relatives and family to ensure our pets are safe and well adjusted. I personally do not need a guard dog but Joe trains all the way through agility and protection. If I personally ever saw anyone hurt , scare or intimidate an animal I would be the first to call THEM OUT IN FRONT OF ANYONE - ANYTIME ! Joe has a passion and is very qualified. Less

Amanda and Nate helped train my dog Rocket. They helped her to get along with my mom's dog, I can now bring my dog down with me to my mom's or to the lake and both dogs are very well behaved around each other now. I was very pleased with all the work they both put in with mine and my mom's dog. Less

Amanda and Alicia have been nothing but fantastic. Our dog had not one, but many behavioral issues for years. We went to multiple dog trainers with no results and honestly thought he was a lost cause. Our dog did everything from running away, fighting other dogs, and not listening to any command. We even had someone with his litter mate say the same thing and thought he was born like that. Oh were we wrong! Amanda and Alicia came into our home, diagnosed him right away, did one ONE session and bam. Completely new dog. It might sound crazy because it is. It’s absolutely crazy but the results are real and have changed our lives. Please, please, please do yourself a favor and actually get the help your dog needs. Our dog Samson has never been happier and neither have we! Less

Lorenzo’s has changed my family life for the better! Our dog is an older dog and you know what they say, “you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.” Well this saying has been disproven because Maxx is 7 years old and has become so much obedient. This is great for us because we travel a lot with him so now everyone has a more pleasurable experience. Lastly, I worked with Felton well really Maxx did most of the work LOL and I would highly recommend using him. It’s like he’s born to do this job because of the connections he makes with the animals. He was very professional, knowledgeable, and just pleasant to be around . I’m throwing two thumps up over her for my overall experience! -The Sanders Family Less

Before the training the only command our dog would comply with was “sit”. We needed help with off leash “come command” and basic obedience. We had a free evaluation of our needs before we committed to the training contract. Amanda Rehmer, along with Alicia were dedicated to our success as well as Daisy’s, our very energetic 1 1/2 year old doodle. The trainers are thorough with explanation and constantly checking on the owners level of comfort and acceptance of the training philosophy. We always were. They also were excellent at demonstrating and teaching the different training techniques. We got the results we wanted in our 8 sessions as well, we will continue with the monthly group sessions. Highly recommend this training. Less

Our experience working with Lorenzo and Ascia was absolutely amazing. I can't say enough. When we walked into their training center the first time, we had a puppy (Hank) that would snap at us, refused to listen unless there was a treat involved; we were close to throwing in the towel. The impact that Lorenzo had on Hank, after just a few minutes of working with him, was remarkable. Lorenzo explained his methods very clearly, not just the how, but the why. He was also extremely patient with us, and Hank, while we learned how to get Hank to be a positive addition to our family. Lorenzo and Ascia more than met our expectations! I highly recommend them. Less

I highly recommend this team for dog training. Amanda,Nathan Rehmer and Alicia are so awesome to work with. They are very professional in solving the obedience problems I had with my 2 dogs. They are much more focused now on what I am asking them to do. I am so happy that I made the call. Less

We needed help with our overly anxious and full of energy puppy. Our veterinarian suggested that we call Bruce at Lorenzo’s Training because she had witnessed tremendous results from other dog owners. In only 8 weeks in the privacy of our own house, we saw a miracle occur that made it worth every penny. We were amazed that our pup went from jumping up, running around, and not responding to our requests to an eight month old puppy that can walk in a busy public park full of kids, ducks, squirrels, people and cars without any issues. We heard people along the way commenting at our well-behaved puppy. If you are looking for a positive experience and a life changing modification to your furry friend, don’t wait. Start your sessions and be amazed of things you never thought possible. Less

We worked with Bruce Maldonado. Bruce came highly recommended by a close friend, and we couldn't be happier with the experience or more pleased by the outcome/results. It was one of those rare cases where the expectations were super high, yet they were definitely MET & EXCEEDED! My wife and I have two young Miniature Schnauzers and really having a hard time managing them on walks. They would listen sometimes, but we didn't have a lot of confidence in challenging situations, which was stressful for us both. About halfway through the sessions, we agreed the investment was already 'worth it' based on the newfound influence we had. Now that the sessions are concluded, we have kept up the training and we continue to see improvements. What Bruce has helped us achieve is beyond our wildest dreams (walking the neighborhood off-leash!) and we give him - and Lorenzo's - our highest endorsement ... especially if you as a dog owner are ready and willing to put in the work. It WILL pay off for you working with Bruce! Less

Okay. I’m going to try and make this as brief as I can. My senior dog has had a level of anxiety that we could never “shake.” Not only did Amanda and Nathan support him through some of his WORST anxieties but he GENUINELY came back more adjusted and I AM better trained on how to work with him through them. These trainers really care and are invested in their clients and their families. Looking at their dogs and how happy and well adjusted they are, we have experienced first hand how to use the right influence for our dogs to live a happy and well-adjusted life too. I couldn’t be more happy and proud how far our dogs have come along. I will absolutely be recommending these guys to others and really appreciated the behavior modifications that they gave my dogs, especially my anxious dog. No joke. They are totally worth it. Less

We just completed basic obedience training with dog trainer Anthony Powers and he was phenomenal!! Anthony was incredibly patient, informative, flexible, and knowledgeable! Our dog Bolt is now such a dream dog who is beyond well behaved!! This program is a 10/10 for any dog. Anthony went above and beyond and treated our dog with such love. I highly recommend this program for anyone looking to bring structure to their dog!! Thank you for everything you tough our Bolt! We definitely will be recommending our friends and returning for advanced training! Less

Amanda and Nate are excellent dog trainers. They were a wonderful influence over our blue healer Annie. I would happily recommend them. They made our lives easier with a now well trained and obedient furry girl. Less
