Canine Movement Lab

We are so grateful for Leah Lykos! Our rescue dog came to us with some reactivity concerns and working with Leah has made such a difference. The lessons are fun and interactive, and she always makes sure we feel supported with follow-up emails, texts, and new video materials to practice. Leah is so knowledgeable and easy to communicate with, and we’ve learned so much along the way. It feels great to see our dog making progress and to feel more confident as owners too. Highly recommend!

We took our rescue dog to Leah for an initial evaluation, and it was hands-down one of the most helpful experiences we’ve had since bringing him home. Leah is not your average dog trainer - she has a deep understanding of dog psychology and nervous system regulation, and she approaches training with a level of insight and nuance that goes far beyond simple reward or punishment tactics.

I have a rescue named Astro and for the past few years I’ve struggled with handling him and navigating situations due to his reactivity towards people and other dogs. I found Leah and I’ve been working with her for the past 4 months. She has given me the best support, guidance, and resources to help me and my dog. Since I started the training program, Leah has always been super available for my questions and has given me tons of resources to pair with our private lessons. More recently, my dog has been doing daycare with her. She’s truly helped build a custom training program for my dog, from nutrition recommendations, to how to work my dog mentally and physically. I’ve seen how her somatic training has been therapeutic for healing my dog. I’ve never trusted someone more with my dog, and I

I recently enjoyed working with Leah Lykos as my dog trainer, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! From our first interaction, Leah's passion for animals and her expertise in dog training was evident. Leah takes a holistic approach to training, focusing on obedience, understanding canine behavior, and building a strong bond between dog and owner. She tailored our training sessions to meet our dog's specific needs, Olivia, who had a few behavioral challenges, including shyness, lack of confidence, and anxiety around new environments. What I appreciated most about Leah was her patience and positive reinforcement methods. She taught me effective techniques that empowered me to communicate better with my dog. These techniques led to immediate improvements in Olivia's behavior, making our

Leah with Canine Movement Lab is organized, insightful, and clearly focused on helping one provide directed training for their puppy or dog based on canine drives and motivations.

She provides feedback, follow up videos, and is available for help or questions at any time.
