I’m Alex Lezcano CTC and I’ve been working as a professional dog trainer for more than five years.
If you’ve had a run around the site, you’ll know that I have a particular interest in helping the owners of dogs with fear-related aggression. I know that those owners are often experiencedand have done a great job with general obedience training. But they’ve hit the wall with thisparticular problem and need help – understanding help, kind help, help from someone witha cool-head and a sense of humor that will get them on track and bring out the best in thedog they love.
A bit of background
I grew up around dogs and have had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember. But I know that to help you with your dog’s behavior, then instinct, intuition and hands-on experience alone aren’t enough. Your relationship with your dogs is so important that if you’re going to put your trust in me, you want to know I have the education, training and qualifications. Here are mine:
My qualifications
I’ve studied, and continued to study, how dogs learn, the most effective techniques to train them and how to pass those techniques on to owners.
I am certified by CSAT.
I am also a graduate in advanced dog training and behavior at the Academy for Dog Trainers, led by the world-renowned training and behavior expert, Jean Donaldson.
My approach to training is based on an extensive study of the way dogs learn and long experience of working with them and their people.
Here’s how it works:
• Assess: What’s the problem, when and where does it happen most?
• Manage: Put in place some positive tools and techniques to manage things safely for you, your family and others
• Modify: Get down to work pretty smartly to start modifying the behavior
• Repeat, repeat and reinforce: Make sure every step of progress in your dog’s behavior is positively reinforced and practiced in different environments and circumstances. That way, you’ll get predictable, calm behavior wherever you are
