About Leigh S.

Safety, trust & environment

My care philosophy is rooted in positive psychology and positive reinforcement—focusing on what helps dogs thrive rather than using fear, punishment, or aversive methods. I believe dogs do best when they feel safe, understood, and supported.

Information Leigh S. would like to know about your pet

Does your dog have any particular fears or triggers that might upset them? How do they behave with other dogs? Is there anything you would like me to work with them training wise?

A typical day

I like to make sure your dogs are engaged and feel like part of my family. I have multiple dog puzzles for them to figure out and a nice back yard where they can catch some rays or play with my other dogs.

Pet care experience

Safety, trust & environment I have volunteered for the past five years training and raising dogs for Guide Dogs of America, an organization that raises, trains, and pairs dogs with people with blindness, veterans with PTSD, and kids with autism. I’ve also spent two decades raising and training my own dogs, working across different breeds, temperaments, and life stages. I’m especially skilled at supporting: • Dogs who are anxious, sensitive, or easily overstimulated • Puppies building confidence and structure • Dogs who benefit from calm routines and positive reinforcement

I have known Leigh through his raising of service dog puppies. Leigh is always diligent, answers questions, and considers suggestions in a positive tone. I have found Leigh to be courteous, truthful, and kind with the pups he has and continues to work with. He always seeks to learn all he can about each dog in his care.
