TESTIMONIALS Behavior & Training
She also helped us work with him on the leash. He would stop constantly on walks but by using a harness instead of a collar and a few treats/commands, she transformed our walking experience to make it much for enjoyable for both of us. I would recommend Leigh to anyone who has a dog that needs a little fine tuning and would be confident that she could easily take on major issues as well. Gustave instantly loved her and we did too! We are forever grateful for meeting her."
There has been a total shift in who is calling the shots around here, and the dogs are so much happier for it. Happy doesn't start to describe how we feel about it! We are having so much fun with the dogs, and we really owe it all to Leigh. She was always supportive, never judgmental ... most of all, she had complete confidence that everything would work out. She really worked with us to find solutions that fit our specific needs. With our busy schedules, we really appreciated the way Leigh worked with the dogs without us and then transferred the skills and knowledge to us. Not only did it save us time, but it gave us the confidence that our dogs could be controlled, we just needed to learn how to do it. I liked how the 3 week program was a fixed length of time with a specific goal for each week so I knew there was a light at the end of the tunnel. Trust me ... Trust Leigh! Life outside the tunnel is wonderful! Woof!"
After meeting with Leigh, we felt very confident that she could work with Riley and us. We were not disappointed. Riley responded well to Leigh’s confidence, knowledge and experience. Her love for dogs and her obvious skill for handling this difficult situation were very reassuring to Riley and us. Riley always felt confident and safe with her and therefore he started his road to recovery. Riley is still our work in progress but we will always be grateful to Leigh for the love and guidance she gave him."
Leigh came very highly recommended by Trish King of the Marin Humane Society, and I am thrilled we found her. Luna is happier than ever. She gets so excited to see Leigh and returns comfortably exhausted from her outings. Leigh gives us regular reports on how Luna is doing. She is socializing well with all dogs and enjoys her off leash adventures. Now she is much more comfortable around other dogs and even goes off leash on outings with other small dogs. Her behavior has dramatically improved since Leigh entered the picture. Our family is so happy that Leigh is giving Luna the attention she needs. Thanks Leigh!"

Dog Walking & Pet Sitting
Who can we trust? will they be safe? Who could possibly love them as much as we do? Enter Leigh Pyron, happy, happy, joy, joy did we get lucky! An aunt, a buddy, a purveyor of good times in spades and of course the perfect trainer. There is no one like her and our Chloe goes mental when she arrives for the days outing. Thanks Leigh you are the best!”
Nelson did his initial puppy training with Leigh and goes out on group walks with her every week. I consider his outings with her to be much more than just a walk... he gets to run in a safe environment, he gets social interaction with other dogs, he learns to interact and walk appropriately in a group, and he comes home well exercised, happy and clean. Leigh is very reliable and conscientious and takes Nelson out rain or shine. She washes down the dogs with warm water and shampoo, if needed, when they get muddy on an outing. Nelson waits outside on our driveway everyday looking for Leigh and hoping for an outing with her. Leigh has a unique ability to gain the attention and cooperation of dogs in a very kind manner. She genuinely cares about the dogs and pays particular attention to how she groups them to attain the most positive experience and learning environment for them so they bring home good habits and not the undesirable ones. She has provided us with very helpful and practical advice and suggestions on how to work with Nelson’s personality and temperament. Leigh has also stayed at our home with both of our dogs while we have left town. I feel 100% comfortable leaving knowing that the dogs are well taken care of and happy. She maintains contact with us while we are gone and gives us updates if we want them. When we return from our trips the house is in great shape and the dogs are happy and seem as if they hardly missed us! We are so happy to have found Leigh and highly recommend her for her professionalism, reliability and loving care of dogs!"
