⚜️ HEY, NEW ORLEANS! CLASS IS IN SESSION! 🐾🎓

Around here, we like our food seasoned, our music loud, and our dogs… well, maybe a little better behaved than us. 😉

🐾 Personalized dog training. Real-life results. All from the comfort of your own home.

🍎 Why Are Our Trainers Educators?

Because at Leash & Teach, dog training isn’t just about teaching dogs.

It’s about educating owners.

Before Leash & Teach, our team spent years in classrooms AND working with hundreds of dogs and their families. Those experiences shaped the way we believe dog training should work.

We saw that a professional trainer could get incredible results with a dog—but that didn’t always mean the family could recreate or maintain those results at home.

So we decided to do things differently.

We aren’t trying to teach your dog to listen to us. We’re teaching you how to understand, communicate with, and work with your dog.

Our backgrounds as educators taught us that learning isn’t one-size-fits-all. Good teaching means meeting the learner where they are, building a strong foundation, figuring out what motivates them, and adjusting your approach when something isn’t working.

And most importantly? Teaching for understanding—not just compliance.

We bring those same principles into dog training.

So yes, we teach sit, down, place, recall, heel, and all the things you expect from a dog training program.

But we also teach you how to read your dog’s body language, recognize overstimulation, understand why behaviors are happening, provide appropriate outlets for natural drives, communicate expectations clearly, and know what to do when real life doesn’t go according to the training plan.

Because ultimately, success isn’t a dog who behaves beautifully for a professional trainer.

It’s a family who understands their dog and has the knowledge and skills to keep learning, growing, and solving problems together long after training ends.

That’s why we do what we do.

Lesson of the Week: PLACE

“Place” teaches your dog to go to a designated spot and remain there until released.
It may look simple, but this one skill can help with:
🏠 Guests coming over
🍽️ Family mealtimes
🚪 Doorbell excitement
🧘 Learning how to settle
🐕 Building impulse control
💛 Creating calm in everyday life

This Week’s Homework:
Practice Place for just a few minutes each day. Start small, reward success, and gradually build duration and distractions.

Remember: we aren’t just teaching dogs where to lie down—we’re teaching them how to be calm when life is happening around them.

📚 Class dismissed. Time to do your homework!

🎒🐾 School is Back in Session!
Welcome to Dog Training 101! ✏️📚

This semester we’re going back to the basics and breaking down the foundational skills every dog should know to become a confident, well-mannered companion.

Each week, we’ll introduce a new “lesson” you can practice right at home — because the best training happens in the little moments you repeat every day.

📓 Class is in session.
✏️ Homework is encouraged.
🐕 Perfect students are NOT required.

Whether you have a brand-new puppy or an older dog who could use a refresher, everyone is welcome in Dog Training 101.

Follow along all month and practice with us!

Does dog training really work online?

Absolutely… and we know it’s even more effective!

One of the biggest misconceptions about virtual dog training is that we’re teaching your dog through a screen.

We’re not.

We’re educating you on how to communicate with your dog in a way they understand.

Because when your dog only listens to the trainer, nothing really changes at home. But when you have the skills, your dog responds to you when and where it matters!

🐾Virtual training means:
🦴Personalized plans and training for you and your unique dog
🐾Train in the environment where the behavior actually happens
🦴Learn from anywhere
🐾Affordable, accessible support
🦴Skills you’ll use for the rest of your dog’s life

Whether you’re raising a new puppy, working through challenges with your pet, or training a future service dog, our goal is the same:
