Our Approach to Behavior Challenges
Our focus is on the individual needs of each dog, especially those with behavioral issues, such as trauma or aggression. We understand that often, the problem isn’t just about training—it’s about understanding and addressing the underlying causes of the behavior.
Many times, behavioral problems stem from more than just the dog’s actions. For instance, an aggressive dog that hasn’t been neutered, even small breeds, can exhibit dominant behavior over their owner. This dominance can manifest in various ways, such as aggression over food, toys, or even when someone else approaches the owner. In these cases, a key part of the solution might be neutering, alongside behavior modification.
Our approach goes beyond traditional training. We work to identify the root causes of the behavior, which might involve changes in the dog’s environment or adjustments in how the owner engages with their pet. It’s not just about teaching commands—it’s about creating a holistic plan that addresses the factors contributing to the dog’s behavior.
This personalized approach is central to our mission of improving the quality of life for animals, particularly those facing behavioral challenges and trauma. By addressing these issues at their root, we aim to give these pets a better, more fulfilling life. Choosing our service means choosing a partner dedicated not just to training, but to transforming the lives of both pets and their owners for the better.

Training your puppy is one of the most important aspects of ensuring they grow into a well-behaved and happy adult dog.
At LuAngel, we believe in a compassionate and structured approach that focuses on building trust, reinforcing positive behaviors, and addressing potential issues early on. Here’s a simple guide to training your puppy:
1. Start with Trust and Bonding
- First Days at Home: Allow your puppy to explore their new environment and bond with you. Establish a routine for feeding, playtime, and rest to help them feel secure.
- Name Recognition: Teach your puppy their name by saying it in a happy tone and rewarding them with a treat or affection when they respond.
2. Positive Reinforcement
- Reward Good Behavior: Use treats, praise, and play to reinforce positive behavior. This includes sitting on command, coming when called, and following house rules.
- Avoid Punishment: Instead of punishing mistakes, gently redirect your puppy to the desired behavior. For example, if they chew on furniture, offer a chew toy instead.
3. Socialization
- Introduce New Experiences: Gradually expose your puppy to different people, environments, sounds, and other animals. This helps prevent fear-based behaviors and builds confidence.
- Controlled Interactions: Arrange playdates with well-behaved dogs and friendly people to ensure positive social experiences.
4. Basic Commands
- Sit, Stay, Come: Start with basic commands using a consistent word or hand signal for each. Reward your puppy immediately when they obey.
- Leash Training: Get your puppy comfortable with a collar and leash, and practice walking calmly by your side. Start in a quiet area before moving to busier environments.
5. House Training
- Crate Training: Use a crate as a safe space for your puppy. Crate training also aids in housebreaking by teaching them to hold their bladder until they’re taken outside.
- Regular Potty Breaks: Take your puppy outside frequently, especially after eating, drinking, or waking up. Praise them when they go potty outside.
6. Mental Stimulation and Exercise
- Interactive Toys: Provide toys that challenge your puppy mentally, like puzzle feeders. This keeps them engaged and reduces destructive behaviors.
- Daily Exercise: Ensure your puppy gets enough physical exercise appropriate for their age and breed. Playtime helps burn off energy and keeps them healthy.
7. Consistency is Crucial
- Routine and Rules: Stick to a consistent routine for feeding, training, and potty breaks. Consistency in rules, like where they are allowed to go and what they can chew, helps avoid confusion.
8. Handling Behavioral Issues
- Address Early Signs: If your puppy shows signs of aggression, excessive fear, or other concerning behaviors, address these early. Gentle redirection and, if necessary, professional training can help correct these issues.
- Patience and Understanding: Puppies are learning and will make mistakes. Patience, understanding, and consistent guidance are key to successful training.
9. Graduation to Advanced Training
- Build on Basics: Once your puppy has mastered basic commands, you can introduce more advanced training, like agility or obedience courses.
- Ongoing Learning: Training is a lifelong process. Continue to reinforce good behavior and introduce new challenges to keep your dog mentally and physically engaged.

Our Mission
We believe that early intervention is key to raising well-adjusted, happy pets. As part of our mission to improve the quality of life for animals, we focus on training puppies in a preventive manner. By starting early, we help to avoid future behavioral issues and ensure that your pup grows up understanding their environment in a healthy and positive way.
Many pets are sadly put down due to behavioral problems that their owners find unmanageable. Often, these issues arise not because the pet is inherently difficult, but because they have learned to interpret their environment in ways that lead to problematic behaviors. By training your puppy from the start, we aim to prevent these misunderstandings and help your pet develop the skills they need to thrive in any situation.
Our puppy training program is designed to lay a strong foundation, teaching them how to interact with their surroundings and with people in a way that promotes a lifelong bond of trust and respect. Through our preventive approach, we strive to ensure that fewer pets develop behavioral problems that could jeopardize their future. At DogTrain, we are committed to giving every pet the best start in life, helping them grow into well-behaved and well-loved members of the family.
