Our story
"My goal is for your dog to be not just your best friend, but your best behaved friend"
Marty, LBDogs.
I started as the trainer at my local dog shelter. While working at the shelter I came to understand that many dogs did not belong or deserve to be there. Proper training and behavior modification would have prevented many dogs from being surrendered.
Consequently, I founded LB Dogs with one major purpose: keeping dogs with their families.
We teach dog socialization, understanding dog behavior and provide people with the tools to establish a better relationship with their dogs.
We began volunteering in our community by offering a weekly free dog training clinic. We also work with a number of rescue groups to rehabilitate their rescue dogs.
As a result of greater demand we began to offer group and private (one-on-one) training.
We proudly work with Island Bark Rescue and Ruff Dog Rescue to help rehabilitate poorly treated dogs.

Located in Long Island’s south shore, we offer group obedience classes and private lessons. We specialize in basic training and behavior modification.
We create a program specific to the dog’s needs focusing on the partnership between dog and handler. Our methods are simple and effective:
-
Teaching a dog how to follow directions and teaching the handler how to give those directions.
-
Teaching the handler how to communicate with the dog as well as how to read the dog’s body language.
-
Teaching how a properly structured walk is a key element of the training process.
-
Learn to function as a team.
We offer basic obedience training for the following actions:
Come, Sit, Extended sit, Extended down, Place, Extended place, Out, Off, and Loose leash walking
Because we tailor training to specific needs fees vary.
