LA’s Dog Trainer

Jacqueline is fantastic!!! She first came to our house the day after our then twelve week old Standard Poodle arrived… We had no experience with puppies and weren’t sure how our 9 year old dog would do with the new arrival. She helped us with crate training, managing the relationship between the dogs, and began training the puppy (and us). From the get go, everything she did (and had us do) worked.
When he was four months old, we went on vacation and sent both dogs to her for a three week «board and train.» Jacqueline was great about texting us pictures and videos so we could see his progress, and their cuteness. The puppy came back so well behaved, and the older dog even more so!
He is now 21 months old and A LOT of dog: high energy, huge, and very smart. All of the techniques and commands Jacqueline has taught us work, and I love that it is all positive reinforcement. We continue to use her for his ongoing socialization, boarding and any new training issues that arise. She returns texts, phone calls, emails immediately and has become indispensable to our household.

Met Jacqueline for the first time today, she is AMAZING! We have two Havanese puppies and within minutes they followed her commands, we absolutely loved all her advise, our puppies adored her, she came to the house and trained us all, I felt like it was the best money I ever spent. Will continue to work with her, because she is beyond fabulous! Thanks you Jacqueline for all you amazing help

Jacqueline is a fantastic resource for positive reinforcement training. Her clicker workshop is well worth it if you’re new to clicker training. It will really help you get your timing precise. I have done clicker training with both my dog and my cat, and I haven’t just seen incredible learning, but it’s also a fun bonding experience. My cat gets so excited when I get the clicker and clicker stick out! Jacqueline can give you great tips and ideas on how to improve your training, and also how to focus on specific issues. My dog had a blast in the intermediate class and loved meeting the other dogs while training. She also loved the exposure to agility, which I think we will look into more. Highly recommended!

Bentley* Approved ! Jacqueline absolutely rocks !
I do not know which was the best way to start, I used both !
*Bentley is our Double Dapples Doxie who had the personality and voice of a Doberman (before being trained by Jacqueline.).
Jacqueline has taken care of Bentley’s Training and taking care of whenever we could not. She is an Absolute professional and right on the target when it comes to the training sessions.
I all heartedly recommend LA’s Dog Trainer !

Jacqueline is AMAZING. She has been helping whip my little ankle biting corgi into shape. Dex (our dog) loves her, she has a very unique way of teaching not only dex, but myself as well. Anything you need, Jacqueline will take care of it! THANK YOU JACQUELINE!

If you’re looking for a solid dog trainer that knows her stuff, and doesn’t ascribe to faddish garbage that can make problems worse, Jacqueline’s your gal!
Last year, we went searching for a good trainer for our then obnoxious, yet adorable, dachshund, Chewy. Chewy, while round, fat-​pawed, ridiculous, and adorable, has a penchant for wanting to be the center of attention. And he will do stuff like, oh, steal that sock that doesn’t belong to him and take off running, hoping to incite a game of chase, and when that doesn’t work, bark incessantly until someone gets up and does something, anything at all!
We were expecting a new baby, so obviously, this sass just wasn’t going to work anymore. I called several behaviorists, and Jacqueline was the most generous with her knowledge, even without an appointment. We talked for a good long time, and she didn’t keep her tips and techniques under wraps — she flat out told me how to get started!
So we booked a private lesson, and over she came, bearing many treats and toys. She set us up with several techniques to keep our little hunter occupied during the times he was hanging out alone at the house. She also showed us how to stimulate his brain and indulge his instincts in a healthy way.
Fast forward two weeks, and we had a different dog. Attending the six-​week obedience classes helped tremendously too, and he got pretty good at several behaviors that we were struggling with.
Since then, we’ve acquired a hyperactive but very intelligent pembroke welsh corgi, and Jacqueline has been so helpful with him as well. She’s always encouraging and supportive, and really looks out for the best interests of the dog.

Jacqueline is an awesome trainer. She takes her time to make sure you understand clearly how to train your dog. She cares for the welfare of the animal and the owner. Thanks for a great experience. I look forward to working with you to make my dog a Canine Good Citizen!
