I didn't want to post this because I've known Leroy a long time but because of the aftermath of Leroy's actions i had too. On May 10th 2019 3 of my mother's dog's were left with Leroy and his Mission Underdog group so that my mom could enjoy a Mothers day weekend. Upon our return i was informed that one of Leroy's pitbulls had mulled one of my mother's terriers to death. It took 2 days for Leroy to address this matter and to this day Mr Singh has done absolutely nothing to replace or confort my moms regarding her companion of 9 years. read more

Mission Underdog Group - Onyx RIP You are missed. - Pet Training Near Me

A little over a month ago, our family rescued a pitbull puppy. He had come into this world under stress, spent the first few months of his life on the streets of LA, and then was caught and placed in a shelter with orders to euthanize. Needles to say, our pup had a rough start to life. Over the first few days in his new home, our pitbull showed serious signs of mistrust & early aggression. We tried a recommended trainer, whose intentions were entirely good, but the experience was less than positive. It was at this point in time that Leroy came into our lives. Another trainer, after meeting our pup, was kind enough to ask Leroy to drive all the way down to S. Orange County. Leroy canceled his entire day for this trip, with the sole desire to help a dog in need. Within 20 minutes of entering our home, Leroy had our pitbull in his calm & loving arms. After another 15 minutes, the dog was jello in our arms. A week later, our pup spent the night with Leroy & his family. After picking him up from his 1st 24hrs, we've noticed marked improvement. A week at home with us & once again he is back with Leroy for a long weekend of training & socialization. Now, not to mislead anyone, as we have had our fair share ups & downs over the past month, but every day has been an improvement. For those of you that have adopted rescue dogs, you know that it can be an incredibly trying experience. I strongly believe that Leroy came into our lives at a time of need. God has given Leroy an incredible gift. I truly believe he has been given the intangible gift to speak with dogs! If you, or someone you know, is in need of a dog whisperer, I strongly urge you to contact Leroy at Mission Underdog Group (MUG)! read more

Worse service ever! Unprofessional. Two dogs were given to Leroy and when it came time to have the dogs return, Mr. Singh didn't return calls for over 5 days. Many Attempts to contact him and his business through different people and through his social media sites with no response. The dogs were finally returned after police involvement occurred. His excuse was he lost his phone. If is his so called "excuse" is legit then why not borrow someone else's phone, again his inaction to keep in contact is not only unprofessional but down right shady. His website for his business is up for sale and no longer available. He deserves no stars, but Yelp won't let me choose no stars. read more

"AMAZED, MIND BLOWN. I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE WHAT MY EYES SAW!" Leroy--the same name as my dog, btw--told us on the phone that it was only take 15 minutes--15 minutes!!!!--to correct the insane barking and misbehavior of our mini poodles. Naturally, I was deeply skeptical. But when Leroy showed up and walked in the door, the dogs instantly and magically fell into line. It was a mind blowing, surreal experience. How did he do it? Leroy gave us a few simple techniques that instantly corrected all our dog's behavior problems. The gist is setting boundaries and giving permissions. The key is being consistent. This may not make sense, but it works like a MAGIC. Leroy isn't a dog whisperer. He is a leader of the pack---a GOD of DOGS! read more

Mission Underdog Group - Look at this! Incredible! Now that Leroy has trained them, these wild beasts are sitting quietly and awaiting further instructions! AMAZING! - Pet Training Near Me

Like other recent reviewers, I hate to write this, but it would weigh heavily on me to know that others chose to entrust their furry loved-ones to this facility and not have a complete picture of what goes on. I had been taking my 130lb. bull mastiff to Leroy for about 3 years off and on for intermittent day and overnight boarding whenever I had a need such as construction work at the house, or vacations etc. My dog is people-aggressive and does not respond well to people who are not properly trained in dog handling. It is amazing how many facilities employee staff with absolutely no understanding about dog behavior. I found Leroy and thought this would be a good fit. My dog seemed to like going there. However, over the years, I cannot count the number of times Leroy left me in a lurch in front of the facility with dog in tow waiting for him to answer the phone or answer the door. On countless occasions I ended up having to lock my dog in a section of the house or take him with me, or cancel an appointment , or be late for work due to my inability to board him as pre-arranged w/ Leroy, because he was nowhere to be found. On the last occasion, I made arrangements to drop my dog off at 8am because I had a very important meeting at my home starting at 9am. I arrived at MUG at 8am...called, texted, knocked on the door for 45 minutes....no answer, no response. I finally had to tow my dog back home. While pulling into the driveway, Leroy texts, and with no apology or explanation, "I'm here now. You can come". It was too late to return, so I had to lock my dog in the other part of the house away from visitors. This kind of disregard for customer service became routine. I put up with it because I didn't have anywhere else to take my baby. He was used to Leroy and the dogs there, but dropping him off was a pure nightmare. Finally, I had to wonder, if there is no one at the facility, but there are dogs there, are they being left alone....overnight.... in cages? On several occasions, I was given the code to the spare key lock box and would leave my dog in the cramped business office because no one was on site to receive my dog. Once Leroy chastised me because my dog ripped up a stuffed animal that was in the office. He told me to put the dog in the office as I had done on a dozen occasions. Why would you have something that could be destroyed by a dog in the office in the first place, then instruct customers to leave their dog there? It should have been a clue of poor judgement that Leroy had a young lady working in the facility that was "afraid of big dogs". Mind you, this is a facility that supposedly specializes in large, aggressive dogs. The last straw was today. I called yesterday to ask if it was ok to bring my dog this morning for day care while contractors worked in the yard. Leroy said "sure", and for me to text him and he would return the text with a drop off time and the new address. It's now after noon and true to form, he has not responded. There's got to be another facility that can work with my fur baby, but if not, he'll just be by my side for the rest of his life. If this is the kind of nonsense that I know about, what is going on inside the facility? I pulled up Yelp to post my review. It broke my heart to read what happened to the dog in the previous post (mauled to death). ...but I'm not surprised. Leroy, I sincerely hope you get things together. You can't treat customers like this and expect to have a successful business. If you are going to take on the responsibility of caring for their furry family members, you have to ensure proper supervision and availability. I wish you the best. read more

Leroy Singh has given me a new dog, figuratively of course. I was overwhelmed and lost. As someone who's been in the veterinary industry for the past 15 years, I'm comfortable with medical stuff but behavioral problems and aggression were not something I knew much about. The constant serious bites after redirected aggression from my 12 mo old pup as well as the fights between him and my older dog, were becoming too much to bear. I was beginning to feel destined for a life of abuse from this dog or that I'd end up having to put him to sleep, neither of which was something I could live with. Leroy immediately made himself available to help. He came all the way from LA to Anaheim twice because we missed each other the first time. Within 5 minutes he had my possessive, aggressive pup in the palm of his hands. He saw the pup was actually submissive. I had it all wrong. He then showed me techniques that I could do to continue asserting myself as alpha, techniques that made a huge difference while he was here but also the next day as I implemented them on my own. I cannot say enough good things about Leroy. He saved my pup, me, my neighbors, and even my family and cats who were being effected by the situation. He's giving me my life back. I'd begun to become isolated but now I'm able to open my front door without barking or dogs fighting. It's unbelievable how much better things are already. When he says he's going to do something, he means it. He follows through and he follows up afterwards. He truly wants to save animals and their owners and he has an instinctual ability to read dogs and know what to do to best help them. I HIGHLY recommend Leroy for any animal behavior issue. You can be sure you're bringing in a trustworthy, passionate, professional! Thank you so much Leroy! ~Christa, Junior, Gracie, and the cats ;-) read more

Mission Underdog Group - Pet Training Near Me

Leroy came in and helped us train not only our new pitty rescue but also my two 7 year old dogs that haven't received formal training in about 6.5 years. He trained us instead and the difference that we see if amazing. All it took was one visit. I can't believe we didn't know about Leroy before! read more

I'm glad you all had great service Leroy kept postponing and then did not even return calls Not sure what we did to deserve this service I personally would not recommend him I give one star because I have to to post read more

I found Leroy because I would see his van at the dog park near my home all the time. We lived in a small apartment at the time and needed a good dog walker. I called the number on his van and have been working with him ever since! That was nearly 3 years ago. Since then we have used him for training and boarding. Leroy always goes above and beyond for our family to accommodate us and the dogs. He truly is a dog whisperer. With consistency his training will give you a new dog and the best part is it only took us one visit. I would recommend MUG and Leroy's services to anyone who wants to feel confident thier dog is in the best hands! Thanks Leroy!! read more

I am thankful for Leroy and his team. A friend referred me to him after I rescued Cosmo. Shelter dogs need a lot of love but they also sometimes need to go to behavior specialist to trust both dogs and people again. Leroy spent 5 days with Cosmo to analyze her and had her with his pack to get re-acclimated with dogs. He assists with socialization skills. I also had him do an introduction visit with my parents dogs which was great because both of them are also shelter dogs. Leroy made a house visit so I could work on my skills with Cosmo which made all the difference in the world. Highly recommend Mission under dog! Leroy rehabilitates so many dogs please don't give up go see Leroy he will make all the difference in the world. read more

Mission Underdog Group - After her behavior training! - Pet Training Near Me

My husband and I adopted a puppy through Bullies and Buddies a rescue that Mission Underdog Group is in association with. Leroy was actually the one who rescued my pup from being dumped at the shelter. He was there rescuing other dogs and a man came in to dump 3 puppies. Leroy saved them and that is how we came to know Mission Underdog. A year later we were in need of behavioral training and Leroy was there to help. He not only trained our pups but also trained us as well (which sad to say we needed more than our own dogs.) Boundaries Boundaries Boundaries!!!! We love and trust Leroy so much that we use him when we go out of town and need puppy sitting. Our dogs have so much fun with Leroy and get so much social time with other dogs. His love and passion for animals is what makes him so great. He loves your babies like they are his own . Which lets get real is exactly what you are looking for when you leave your babies with someone. He posts videos and pictures so that you can see your fur babies which I absolutely love because it gives me piece of mind seeing how much fun they are having. If you are looking for training, Leroy is your man. If you are looking for doggy daycare, Leroy is your man. If you are looking for overnight, Leroy is your man. Thank you Mission Underdog Group for being the best! read more

Leroy is amazing! I truly recommend him! He has a lot of experience as a trainer and he loves all animals. He helps people and dogs. He is reliable, and all dogs love him. His boarding is super clean and the dogs have lots of fun. I can say that is the only place I would leave my dogs at. They love Leroy!!! This place is the dogs heaven!!! read more

Leroy is an amazing dog trainer. He's incredibly good with the animals and very intuitive when it comes to reading a dog's temperament. I couldn't recommend him enough to help you work with your dog, especially if your dog is protective, guarded, or needs firmer training. Leroy is also just a really great guy, so it's a pleasure to work with him. A special shout-out to Chondrea, as well, who is responsible for a lot of the operations side of things. She is extremely receptive, courteous, and thoughtful. read more

Leroy is amazing! We have a rescue dog who is (was!) super dog reactive. Since we got him he has barked and lunged at other dogs while on leash and has gotten into a couple of pretty scary dog fights. Leroy took him for 10 days of intensive dog socialization and training and worked with us the whole way. We now have gone on a full week (!!!) of dog walking without any reactivity using the methods Leroy showed us. We can't thank Leroy enough, and our dog is now a regular at daycare. Best money we ever spent! read more

Leroy was a referral from a friend of mine and I am so glad we called him! We have two pits who have a bit of an age difference, and they were having some troubles adjusting to each other. It was getting to the point where we were questioning if we were really the best home for both dogs. Then I reached out to MUG and they were so. easy. to work with. Chondrea was upfront with scheduling, making sure paperwork was done, etc., which meant I could focus on Leroy when he was at the house and not do any extra necessities - we could just get to work. Leroy was awesome with both of our dogs. He honed in on what their issues were - high energy in one, which the other is not a fan of - and gave us some great tools for how to curb that. He also worked with us on setting boundaries and making our dogs think about us, instead of each other. It's only been a few days since our training but there is already a much different vibe in our house. He even was able to get our older dog, who used to lunge at other dogs on leash, to walk calmly past a new dog without even paying attention. I was blown away. We've had her for 6 years and have never seen her so calm around new dogs. I would trust the team at MUG with my dogs, hands down. read more

THERE IS NO OTHER PERSON OR PLACE I would entrust the care of our dogs with!!! LEROY is AWESOME and THE MAN at being a pack leader. I see the RESPECT and LOVE ALL the dogs under his supervision and care have for him. MUG is our dogs home away from home!!! read more

Mission Underdog Group - DANNY-BOY & STARR-KEISHA - Pet Training Near Me

Leroy is a God send!!! I can't imagine having a dog without his support. When we first got our pit bull, Birdie, we hired a trainer who did reward-based training. She charged us 1000 $ for 10 sessions and our dog was worse off than when we started. It was such a waste of time and money. Leroy then came to us and within the first 15 minutes of him walking through are door, he completely opened up our eyes. Within 2 hours he had us trained and armed with the tools to have a well behaved and well trained dog and we felt so empowered. He always makes himself available for any questions we may have and for the past 6 years he has picked Birdie up every week for a hike and is ALWAYS available to board her whenever we go out of town. We are so grateful to Leroy and love him so much! read more

I cannot thank Leroy enough! Leroy and his team are wonderful. I will never take my dogs anywhere else for boarding or training. Leroy is extremely patient, calm and flexible and genuinely cares about your animals well being. For the first time in 2 years, my boys are sleeping next to each other, hanging out without trying to kill each other! My pit became extremely and suddenly, dog reactive an aggressive once we adopted another dog. This was a headache and very stressful for my husband and I, until Leroy changed all that. My anxiety was out of control due to the dog fights I had seen between these two. Every other trainer basically told us there was no hope, either we had to re-home the newly adopted dog, which was NOT an option, or just keep them separated. So we separated for 2 YEARS! Until we found Leroy through a friend. I was nervous at first, but Leroy helps establish boundaries so your pups know you are in charge. He was extremely patient with me and my dogs. I needed just as much work learning to trust again as they needed behavior work. and he was patient through actual tears. Now I have happy tears! My boys juts got back from boarding with Leroy over the Memorial Day Weekend and I received updates, via call, text and video. I am forever grateful to him and will forever support M.U.G.! read more

We just used Leroy to train our leash aggressive dog. In under 3 hours, he changed the way our house functions. We've had trainers, read books, and spent countless hours and dollars trying to train our dogs, and nothing worked. Leroy WORKS. He's amazing. In 3 hours he: got rid of barking, set up boundaries (we've tried this before and it never worked), taught the dogs how to walk on leash, eliminated leash aggression, and made the dogs clear out of the doorway when guests arrive until they are invited back. We got new - much improved - dogs! Cannot recommend Leroy enough. read more

Leroy is a lifesaver! I adopted a 50 pound chow from a rescue who immediately began displaying signs of leash aggression. It was so bad that we couldn't even go to obedience classes. Before sending her off to an expensive and three-week long aggression training camp, I gave Leroy a call, and it was the best decision I ever made. Leroy solved all of her aggression issues in a single home visit. Just as important (if not more) than the time he spends with the dog is the time he spends with you, the owner, communicating to you the things you need to do to best to put your dog into a position that he/she can succeed in being the good, happy, obedient dog that all dogs want to be. Thank you Leroy! read more

I have never published a review on Yelp, but my experience with Leroy Singh was so positive that I have to share! My boyfriend and I just rescued our 2 yr old pit mix, Birdie, a few months ago. She's a super sweet and social dog, but had terrible manners, pulled us around on the leash especially around other dogs and people, and jumped all over our guests and their kids (yikes!). We had Leroy over to our apartment last night to evaluate Birdie. He spent about 2 hours with us and, within that time, showed us what we needed to do to establish boundaries with her. Following his simple guidance, Birdie was laying calmly on the floor in another room while we practiced with Leroy entering our apartment as a guest. Then he showed us how to properly invite Birdie to join us in the room. He also showed us how to use the same technique to establish boundaries with Birdie on the leash and, within minutes, she was calmly walking along side us. He even called a client who lived nearby with her pitbull to practice with us. Again, through his simple guidance, Birdie and the other dog walked right past each other on the sidewalk without incident - a scenario that would've normally had me holding Birdie back on the leash and praying that the other person/dog were tolerant with my crazy dog. The true magic came this morning, when I took Birdie out on my own. I used Leroy's simple techniques and experienced perfect results with Birdie. We even passed other dogs on the sidewalk and she followed alongside me with no incident. Once we were back in the house, she was so much more relaxed and able to settle down on her bed, instead of her usual following me around until the apartment routine. I cannot say enough good things about Leroy. He is not a mystic or a magician - as you might envision someone like Ceasar Milan. He's a patient, keen listener who seeks to understand you and your dog's issues, and then offers simple, practical guidance based on the logic and behavior of humans and dogs. Knowing that we now have Leroy as a resource is so comforting. I cannot recommend him enough for anyone who needs to reset and/or reexamine their dog's behavior or their own behavior with their dog. In the meantime, we are so happy and grateful to enjoy our Birdie 2.0! read more

Leroy and his pack of dogs are absolute MIRACLE WORKERS. I have 2 litter mates (American Bulldog, Boxer mixed) and my boy was simply unruly. He had no idea how to communicate with other dogs, was leash AGGRESSIVE toward other dogs, TERRITORIAL and simply put, a nuisance. I had been to other group dog training sessions with him, and none of those trainers knew how to handle him. Until one day a buddy of mine recommended Leroy... and BOOM. I finally had found a guy who knew dog language! I am in the process of having him still work with my boy, Johnny, but even after ONE overnight stay at his facility with his pack of dogs I can see a HUGE DIFFERENCE. I'm excited to continue our training and I have never been so happy to find not only a trainer who I can TRUST, but also a facility where this "KING OF CANINES" has his pack of dogs so UNDER CONTROL that you could even CONFIDENTLY bring your Chihuahua in without any incidents or fear of them getting hurt. He is simply magical and his insights are ABSOLUTELY PRICELESS. If you have a dog that needs to be socialized, call this man TODAY. You won't regret it. It's given me my life and my sanity back and I am forever grateful. Oh, and shout out to Chondrea, his assistant! She sat with us during Johnny's review and she is just as invested and loving toward the dogs as he is. :) CHEERS TO A HAPPY LIFE WITH YOUR CANINE PALS! read more

Mission Underdog Group - Johnny and Jezebel - Pet Training Near Me

See all

Leroy worked with my dog, Tyson. Tyson was a stray found with a broken tail and half an ear missing (reason I named him Tyson). Tyson was all over the place on leash and pulled constantly. He also became aggressive with my other two dogs immediately after moving to a small, studio apartment. In a short time, Leroy taught me how to set boundaries, even in my small living space, and how that would reduce his aggression and put the focus back on me as the leader. I learned several valuable techniques for managing the dogs at home. He also taught me techniques for getting Tyson to walk much better on leash. I'm happy to say the aggression with my other dogs has completely stopped, and Tyson's leash walking has drastically improved! read more

All the 5 star reviews here are not over rated. MUG is the real deal. Leroy is the real deal. We rescued two dogs, did the petco classes, petsmart and other trainers with no true progress. Our 2.5 yr male pit mix and 1.5 yr female spaniel mix were able to sit and stay and wait, but not the relationship we were seeking or the proper communication we needed. We watched all the countless episodes of Cesar Milan and similar shows. Wishing we could have that type of relationship with our two furry kids. Working with other rescues and shelters led us to Leroy (MUG). After one visit to our house, about an hour of simple straight forward instruction - we finally have that Cesar Milan relationship with our dogs. Leroy is in this with true passion. The love and joy he has is transparent and infectious. Very different than other trainers taking so much time and money with no real improvements. Like teaching English speaking kids the Spanish language with Chinese characters. Each dog/owner relationship is different. And Leroy has success stories to share and relate for every possible scenario. One session (such a small expense in time and money) was all our family needed. Can't stress enough how much any dog owner needs to find out about Leroy and his Mission Underdog Group. My family is on board to help MUG & local shelters in fostering dogs. We will be continuing to help Leroy as possible and also have our dogs go on MUG hikes and day camps, as well as boarding (so dogs can be on vacation when we are on vacation). Did I mention with Leroy's training only ONE session saving so much time after months of classes with other people/organizations? Real Talk. Truest 5 Star Review. read more

I don't usually write reviews but felt that it would be selfish not to share my awesome experience with MUG. I adopted a 2 year old 55 lb pit bull two days ago and I was already having some aggression issues. Leroy was highly recommended from a friend and he didn't fail! He said on the phone that he'd only need one session to set me straight and he did. I now feel more confident about setting clear boundaries with my dog, walking her without a muzzle and over all how to be a responsible pit bull owner. Leroy is very thorough, answers any question, teaches good techniques and has good stories with lessons. I highly recommend MUG! read more

Leroy is a lifesaver! After searching far and wide, I'm lucky to find Leroy. I'm amazed and in awe of his work. Seriously, the most beneficial hour in my life. I was at my wits end with my dog and with one visit, yes- one visit, I saw DRASTIC CHANGES!after Leroy left, it was the first night that my two pets hung out together in peace and we got some peace too!!!! Leroy is very patient and shows you how to handle the dog to get respect. Now the hard part, practicing what he taught us! My vet staff was very familiar with him and agree with his teachings. He teaches you to work with your pet on your terms. I was shocked at how much of a difference it made! Highly, HIGHLY recommend Leroy! Any animal, he can handle. Nicest guy too and runs a tight pack! I'm so impressed! read more

There are not enough good things I can say about Leroy and his wonderful Mug company. He's bent over backwards to help me reach a great place with my dog. He's honest, assertive, and helpful. Without him, I would have given up on my dog and that makes me sad. He's been beyond words helpful. read more

I remember this one time I was driving on the 110 freeway and was stuck in traffic and was wondering what happened when I seen people get out of their car n we're running around on the freeway so I was very curious of what was going on then i seen a dog running on the freeway that had gotten on the freeway somehow and everyone was trying to catch him then I seen Leroy's van pull up n just knew things were about to get serious it took Leroy less than 10 minutes to catch the dog! The dog was saved return to the owner Leroy got there just on time to save the dog I was amazed and knew that he knew what he doing Leroy saved the dog's live everyone on the freeway that was trying to help started clapping it was just amazing good work Leroy keep it up buddy!! We need more people like you! read more

Wow! ONE session, ONE session has already made a huge difference in my dogs behavior. Thank you so much Leroy for your help! The 5 stars reviews you've received on YELP are really true. read more

My partner and I have known Leroy for a little over two years now. Not only does he train our dog but we count him as a friend. When we moved out of CA he always returned my calls and never hesitated to help us with any issue- be it over facetime or the phone. We undertook a 2,000 mile drive (yes to see our families) but also to have our dog (who has been struggling with dog aggression for a little while) trained by Leroy and to help retrain us. We have personally been all through his new facility, seen all the cages, the back area, and everywhere else. We were always invited to come train with our dog Raza in the back area, to train with her while she worked on her cat aggression with his own cat. At all times Leroy had the utmost control over every situation- and the utmost compassion for all of his animals. When I first met him, the face of his brand, Dynamo was suppose to be adopted out and Rosie his bull terrier also needed a new home. Leroy took them both in and has worked to make all of his dogs safe, but also useful. Princess his small dog was employed to help Raza work with smaller dogs- and when we went to the park Raza displayed appropriate behavior to small dog posturing. Also, when we were at the park- to no fault of Leroys own- a small dog attacked my dog (because the small dog was guarding their ball but dropped it in my dogs water bowl after I threw the ball away, and attacked Raza's face). Leroy immediately assessed the situation, fought in Raza's name when the owner tried to blame my dog and kept us updated on the status of the wounds on her face. If my dog lost any weight, it is because she was now going on regular pack hikes, playing all day, and going to the park every day. In no way did she go under the natural weight for her frame, her face healed right up, and yes maybe she did smell a tad bit of urine. But lets be honest, when dogs come back from doggy daycamp they smell like this (I know, i used to work in one). I also know that Leroy personally cleans the dogs run because he knows these dogs and how they react to people in their space- and doesn't want anyone else to get hurt until the person is properly trained. I saw him running around, back and forth, like a chicken with his head cut off cleaning. And I also know his house is set up so that he shares a wall with the dogs that are kenneled so that if ANYTHING goes wrong in the middle of the night- he is there to deal with it. I have seen this man take far beyond red zone cases and help them, so that they can have a home and not die in a shelter. And at no time when I was at his facility did ANY dog look emaciated or in any way physically harmed. He has such control over the dogs he would never allow for any harm to come to them, and I know his heart would also never allow any type of abuse. So please, take it from me, from someone who knows the man and not just the trainer- he's does amazing work, truly loves his own dogs and every dog that comes through his door, and can really really help you when you're backed into a corner and you think the only way out is to give up your dog. He can teach you to be confident and keep your dog safe and give them boundaries- and in turn they will start to feel confident and feel no need to lash out. I can't say what others have been through with him. But what I know is, Raza no longer goes to the park in a muzzle, she comes when I call EVERY TIME (he even taught her how to play ball) and she's a better dog for having been under his care. When we come back to LA she will be seeing Uncle Leroy. read more

I don't where to start! Leroy was THE kindest and patient and thorough with me over the phone. I'm a new puppy parent and he listened to what I was doing and wanted to do. I called him on a SUNDAY. He helped me, gave me information and encouraged me with my new puppy. I am confident in his knowledge and techniques. He opened the door for me to call him when I needed. He was the best call I made today. I recommend MUG and Leroy. He said he specializes in behaviors and socialization among other things. I believe him. read more

I rescued a very sweet pitty with some behavioral issues that started to get worse when I moved to Los Angeles. I had tried Petco classes and pitbull specific training but was not able to create much behavioral change and I was getting worried by her aggressive behavior. I finally reached out to Leroy at the recommendation of my doggie daycare (West LA Dogs), and I honestly can't recommend him highly enough. Leroy was patient and knowledgeable and genuinely cares about dogs in a way that is unique and absolutely invaluable -- he was able to have an immediate impact on Billie's behavior (and my own!) through just one training session, and continued to make himself available to me and my pup throughout months of training, so that we could both learn. Reminds me of Cesar Milan -- and I wouldn't be surprised if he got his own show one day! read more

I have been working with Leroy for a week now and the transformation of my dogs is astounding. He is patient with the owner and has a wealth of knowledge that he is willing to share. His rates are super reasonable as the evaluation fee includes as much time that is needed to address the problem identified. He has spent hours with me showing me the correct way to correct my dogs, how to walk my dogs and how to create boundaries in the house. I am going to keep working with Leroy as changing behavior that has been ingrained for so long will take time to eliminate. He truly is a unique person who is passionate about what he does plus he is always willing to give free advise to anyone who talks to him. read more

I called Leroy because one of my neighbors recommended him highly. I recently adopted Bailey and he was getting aggressive with people approaching our apartment. The time spent with Leroy was amazing and very effective. Leroy has a lot of love for dogs and great instincts, he knows what he is doing and Bailey could sense that and took it seriously. I have walked Bailey several times since then and practiced having him stay in the bedroom area until invited to the living room and he is doing very, very well. I think Leroy is the best! read more

Leroy is the real deal. He just gets it. I own a dog care company and am founder of a non profit dog rescue and Leroy has not only helped so many dogs but he has also taught me so much! He doesn't take advantage. He tells you what you need to hear and won't drag you through weeks and weeks of sessions (unless, of course, you really need it). LOVE M.U.G!!!! read more

I have heard some trainers including Leroy say they can set you straight or give a lot of help in one visit. I am skeptical. I have also had trainers say that it's going to take six months or more of hard work. I tried that too. Maybe different things work for different dogs? I think finding a trainer that works for you and your dog and your house and your circumstances is a lot like picking a therapist. Very personal and also a game of telephone when it works or doesn't work, but Leroy was able to make a significant difference in getting my dog to accept that he's not running the house in just one visit. Walking my dog has been much better since our session, and I'm planning to do more with Leroy from MUG. There was no physical force or aggression in fact much less than I've seen with other trainers. Maybe it was the right "fit" for my situation. (Also, I asked at the rescue where I got my dog, and they said they'd seen Leroy's work and thought he was good.) read more

Leroy really knows dogs. We got a recur and helped us with the new dog and our old dog. His boarding is good too

MUG has been a blessing, my dogs love it here and the staff always makes sure the pups are taken care of. I would highly recommend using MUG for day care, walks, trainings and over night stays. read more

We wanted to adopt a second rescue dog for years, but our little Boston Terrier was dog aggressive. We went to shelters and rescue groups to try and adopt and were turned away. Through the kindness of a friend, Cheryl ( who runs a dog rescue), we had the opportunity to get another Boston Terrier! We tried to introduce the dogs with no success. Leroy was recommended to us by Cheryl and we set up the appointment. Several dog trainers we contacted said we'd need 3 week programs to introduce the dogs. We decided to try Leroy. Within 15 minutes our dogs were together without any fighting or growling. We couldn't believe it! Leroy allowed us to have another dog in our lives. My older dog is much happier with his new brother! Leroy's approach is straightforward and he is so great with the dogs! They listened to him right away and he showed us that he really knows how to read and train dogs. He is also great with training the owners how to work with their own dogs, which is key. We are thinking about sending our new rescue to Leroy for some additional basic training, since he is a stubborn little boy. With Leroy's help, we'll finally be able to have dogs that behave well! Call Leroy if you're having any dog issues! You'll be very happy once Leroy resolves your dog problems! Thank you, Leroy! read more

Leroy is the best. We originally found Leroy through our rescue. He helped me gain confidence when our 4-month pit bull rescue Lucy started to challenge me as her pack leader. Leroy is a basic no nonsense guy that truly understands dogs and this breed in particular. I had seen him hiking with his dogs and never dreamt I would need his help. A true dog whisperer. We love you Leroy from Martha, David and Lucy. read more
