We have trusted Kayleen and her team with our dogs since 2018. OC Lucky Dogs provides a safe, professional environment for our pets - whether it be weekly pack walks, dog and puppy training or boarding. Kayleen and Leanna are extremely talented and I am so thankful they are in our lives. OC Lucky Dogs treats our dogs as if they were theirs. They are true dog lovers who have such an amazing talent and skill. I wholeheartedly recommend their services. You won't regret it!

In response to the 1 star review by a very uneducated woman who instead of having a civil conversation, assumed she knew the situation and ran to post a bad review: My dogs have been with OC Lucky Dogs for three years now. I not only wholeheartedly trust Kayleen and Leanna to come in and out of our home but trust them literally with my dogs' lives. Kayleen takes the time to get to know your dog and understand their triggers before ever introducing them to the pack. The work does not stop there, she continues to assess and work with the dogs as needed. When Leanna came on, my dog took to her right away. He waits at the door for her to pick him up with his tail happily wagging. When they introduced my other dog, that was a daycare fail due to being reactive in that type of environment, they once again slowly worked her into the pack and she is 100 times happier than she ever was going to daycare. Both my dogs are sensitive to heat and Kayleen and Leanna are hyper vigilant of that, and monitor them throughout the walk. They have canceled walks due to extreme heat knowing that the safety of the dogs in their care is the priority, not profits. They know our dogs inside and out and tell us if ANYTHING seems off about them during their walk so we can keep an eye on them. I was devastated to hear about the recent situation of the man that called himself a trainer, that had multiple dogs in his care die, but when I read that headline all I could think of was how grateful I was to have my dogs in the hands of Leanna and Kayleen. It's easy to glance at a situation and assume you know what's going but asking questions instead of accusing someone falsely is far better for the community.

Look at all of these well behaved and happy puppies on one of their pack walks!

Kayleen is incredible with our puppy! She is always so calm and speaks so patiently as she works with Bella! We have used her for training and for pack walks. She has helped us tremendously with teaching us how to train Bella on her commands, how to be less reactive, how to be fulfilled, etc. Bella also goes on two pack walks a week with Kayleen. Kayleen is in training mode with her the second she walks up so that way Bella, who can get too excited when she knows she gets to see her doggy friends, will be safe and calm when she gets into the truck. Kayleen always has her truck running and the air on for the dogs that are waiting inside. She calmly gives commands so Bella is in a sitting position and is then able to calmly and safely jump up into the truck. She always puts safety first. We receive the cutest pictures from these pack walks of all of these dogs that are walking or sitting in a calm state. I'm so thankful for everything Kayleen has done to help us with Bella since she is our first dog ever! We OC Lucky Dogs!

My dog, Lady, absolutely loves going on pack walks with Kayleen. My dog always come back tired which I love. Kayleen always takes the cutest pictures of the pack. If you're looking for a great way to exercise your dog with someone who knows how to handle dogs then Kayleen is your go to girl! We love OC Lucky Dogs (:

Happy Labs!

See all

Great experience! We have an 8-year-old rescue Golden…read moreRetriever who developed some habits we wanted to correct and weren't able to do on our own with traditional training. A couple of these weren't terribly serious, but we felt we weren't "in charge" anymore, that our dog wasn't getting the message from whatever we were doing, and that if we didn't do something different, it could really get out of control. Brad really helped us with this, where traditional "training" wasn't working. We have two or three things we're working on with our girl, but here is the most dramatic change we had with one issue. She is very food motivated, and would beg from us at the table whenever we sat down to eat, and would be underfoot in the kitchen during prep. She got overly excited and would not settle and lie down. Brad explained we weren't communicating well with her on a dog level, so to get that communication kicked in to gear, he actually started our session not with this problem, but with making sure she would not dash out the front door when it was opened. This was to establish that we were in charge and what was expected of her. What he showed us how to do worked like you wouldn't believe. It was like a light bulb went off for our girl. What we did affected everything after that. It wasn't about dashing out the door, it wasn't about begging for food, it was about knowing what was acceptable in our pack and to look to us for direction. That night, at dinner, she went to her "spot" with a simple direction and was relaxed during our entire meal. She can now be directed to her spot and will stay quietly any time we need her to. Best of all, she seems truly relieved that she doesn't have to be in charge and that WE are. She is much more relaxed around so many other things. It gave us so much more confidence! I didn't think that what Brad taught us would work. It's quite counterintuitive. But trust me, it worked like magic. This is not dog training - it's communication with your dog. Brad answers all your questions, doesn't waste your time, shows you clearly and directly what will work. We're so thankful we found him!

Before working with Brad, my dog Cash struggled with severe separation anxiety and reactivity…read more Leaving him home alone felt impossible, walks were stressful, and I was constantly worried about how he'd behave around new people and situations. I met with several trainers before Brad & had little to no success in the areas we needed most, I was exhausted. Now for the first time ever, I can leave him home alone without the overwhelming anxiety and guilt that used to come with it. Our walks are actually enjoyable again, and I feel confident bringing him around friends and into new environments. What I appreciate most is that the training gave me the tools and confidence to understand and communicate with my dog better. I have my freedom back, and Cash is happier and more relaxed because of it. If you're struggling with separation anxiety, behavioral issues, or just want a better relationship with your dog, I can't recommend Brad enough. The impact has been life-changing.

Watching Instagram and YouTube videos won't give you a well-behaved dog. Working with Vladae will!…read more We've been working with Vladae for about four months with our now six-and-a-half-month-old Golden Retriever, Coach, and it has been one of the best investments we've made. What sets Vladae apart is that he doesn't just train dogs, he teaches owners how to build a lifelong relationship with them. Every lesson leaves us with practical tools, clear direction, and the confidence to continue the training every single day. Because of that, the progress doesn't stop when the session ends. Vladae has an incredible ability to understand dogs. Watching him read a dog's behavior, body language, and mindset is genuinely fascinating. He knows exactly how to communicate with each dog in a way they understand, and it's clear this comes from years of experience and a deep understanding of canine psychology. He's also one of the most invested professionals we've ever worked with. Throughout the week, he encourages us to send videos, provides thoughtful feedback almost immediately, and is always available to answer questions or jump on a call if we need guidance. You never feel like you're figuring things out on your own. He truly cares about both the dogs and the people raising them, and he always follows through. Every recommendation Vladae has made, whether it's training tools, techniques, or daily routines, has become an essential part of Coach's development. We trusted the process from day one, and the results truly speak for themselves. (See the videos! Coach is only 6.5 months old in them.) Our puppy is happy, confident, well-mannered, and genuinely loves learning. We receive compliments on his behavior everywhere we go, and we owe so much of that to the foundation Vladae helped us build. We also had the opportunity to work with Erica, who trains alongside Vladae, and she was absolutely wonderful. One session with Erica is included in the program, and it was incredibly helpful. It's clear she shares the same passion, knowledge, and dedication that make this training program so special. Vladae brings unmatched energy, professionalism, and passion to every session. He genuinely wants every dog and every owner to succeed, and that level of commitment is incredibly rare to find. If you're looking for a trainer who truly understands dogs and is committed to setting both you and your dog up for long-term success, I can't recommend Vladae highly enough. Coach has become an incredible puppy, and we're excited to continue into adult school because of the foundation he's helped us build. We're so grateful we found him!

I assure you that I…read morewas a legitimate customer who genuinely shared my honest experience, which I believe is critical for other potential clients. While it's understandable to feel upset when receiving negative feedback, it's important to reflect on the reasons behind my review. I noticed that during our initial interaction, you made a comment about my background that many found to be a stereotypical and racist remark. In fact, I saw that you previously posted video footage of our encounter on your Instagram, but you removed it after receiving backlash for those comments. This indicates that others found your remarks concerning as well. I want to emphasize that my intention was never to harm your business; rather, it was to share my experience. Thankfully, I have since found another trainer who practices positive reinforcement, which aligns much better with my values and my dog's needs.

We've been bringing our pups to the Jamboree location for quite a while, and up until the beginning…read moreof this year, we had nothing but positive experiences. Last year, we brought them frequently and always felt confident leaving them there. The staff was friendly and welcoming, the facility felt clean, and our dogs always seemed happy to be there. That's why it's so disappointing to see how much things have changed since the ownership transition. Since the change in ownership, we've noticed a significant decline in the overall experience. The staff no longer feels as friendly or approachable. While there are still a few kind employees, several team members come across as cold and unhelpful, making drop-off feel uncomfortable and even a bit intimidating. It no longer feels like the warm, welcoming environment it once was. We've also noticed the facility doesn't seem nearly as clean as it used to be. Our dogs consistently come home smelling strongly of urine after daycare. We occasionally check the live cameras throughout the day and frequently see urine sitting on the playroom floors for extended periods before being cleaned up. If messes in the common play areas are left unattended, it raises concerns about how often the kennels are being cleaned when the dogs are resting. Combined with the odor our dogs come home with, it has made us question the overall cleanliness of the facility. Another noticeable change is how little time our dogs now seem to spend in the play areas. We'll pay for a half-day of daycare, and by the time we pick them up, we're lucky if they've spent more than 30 minutes interacting with other dogs. The majority of their visit appears to be spent kenneled. We choose daycare because we want our dogs to have a safe, clean environment where they can socialize and play. If they're spending most of their visit in a kennel, it's difficult to justify paying for daycare when they could be comfortably resting at home in a cleaner environment for free. Customer service has also become frustrating. Recently, one of our dogs came home without his collar. We didn't realize it until we got home, so we called the facility and were told someone would call us back because they were too busy at the moment. We never received a callback. After calling several more times over the next few days without getting an answer, we ultimately had to drive to the facility ourselves just to ask about and retrieve the collar. Pickup has also become much slower than it used to be, often requiring a long wait before our dogs are brought out. We're genuinely disappointed because we loved this location for a long time and trusted the team with our pets. Unfortunately, since the ownership change, we've experienced a noticeable decline in cleanliness, customer service, and the overall level of care. We hope these concerns are taken seriously because we'd love to see this location return to the high standard that made us loyal customers in the first place.

You can tell the staff genuinely care about the dogs. They're so kind, attentive, and communicative. We loved receiving email updates with pictures throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind, especially since it was his first time. One of our favorite features is that they have cameras, so we could check in and watch Boba playing and having fun anytime. It made us feel really connected and reassured. A special shoutout to David. He was incredibly friendly and explained everything clearly, which made the whole process smooth and stress free. Overall, we felt so comfortable leaving Boba here, and it's clear he loved it too. We will definitely be bringing him back. Highly recommend!

That's what I was informed the day that he went for 4 hours and he only played 20 minutes . When the incident happened with diego being grabbed by a big dog, you guys gave it no importance, since that dog continued to be in open play ( I saw him on the camera all the time ) I am surprised the staff saw diego showing teeth, most of the staff there are on their phone all the time, not paying attention while they supposed to be "watching the dogs". With the exception of a couple of people that showed cared but they were not there when diego supposedly showed his teeth. Diego is a very lovable small dog, he is not a big vicious dog, and is very strange that at Paws Chateau he NEVER shows teeth or does any of the things you said, in fact, all of the staff there love Diego, and he has fun with the other dogs. In your daycare you guys never even checked to see if he was up to date with vaccines, just like you probably don't check anyone else's . So it surprises me that this facility says they care for the animals.The truth is that you are right, digo likes to cuddle or be loved and the staff was too busy on the phone to be paying attention to him.

I started calling around to other trainers I found online but nobody wanted to work with such a big aggressive dog. One trainer referred me to Tony. After talking with Tony and watching his webinar he referred us to Xavier who from the first 15 minutes had my dog sitting down calmly and accepting directions. I can't speak highly enough for how professional results oriented both Tony and Xavier have been. We were considering returning her back to the breeder before meeting Tony and Xavier. Thank you both so very much!
