We cannot recommend Mr. Luis enough! We found him on Google because of his reasonable pricing, but he was worth every single penny and so much more.
We’re expecting a baby this January and were really stressed about preparing our dog for the new arrival while working on basic obedience. Mr. Luis went above and beyond during every single lesson. He always took the time to answer all of our questions and never made us feel rushed. On top of that, he gave us great, honest advice on how to transition our dog before the baby comes, along with practical tips we could easily practice at home.
One of our favorite parts was being able to practice both at his facility and out in public spaces. Having him right there with us in real-world environments made a massive difference in our dog's behavior and confidence.
From our very first session to our last, the transformation was night and day. The amount of progress we saw in just 10 one-on-one lessons completely blew us away. If you need a trainer who truly knows what they're doing, definitely go with Mr. Luis! He is the best!!

Luis, I wanted to reach out to express my sincere thanks for all your help so far.
After spending a lot of time trying to research how to handle my 2 litter mate Frenchies reactive and aggressive behavior on my own, I felt overwhelmed. While my previous experience with trainers focused on basic obedience, it became clear that what we truly needed was specialized behavioral training for our fur babies.
I am so glad I found Harmony Dog Training. My lengthy conversation with you about our situation made me feel incredibly comfortable, and I truly value your expertise. The assessment you did at our home was eye-opening; hearing what we were unknowingly doing to contribute to the chaos was exactly the feedback we needed.
I have already started implementing the recommendations you gave me, and I am thrilled to see that they are working even before the dogs have stepped into your facility. I am feeling very optimistic and am looking forward to seeing their progress during the upcoming board and train session.
Thank you again for your guidance.

My dog (Luna) and I just completed the 5 week basic obedience group class and I am very impressed with how much we’ve learned and how much better Luna is doing! The trainer’s Linda and Austin were awesome! They were both encouraging and knowledgeable and gave me and Luna the tools to work on her basic skills especially impulse control. I am excited to take advanced obedience next and also maybe agility eventually!

I’ve also boarded Luna with Harmony and appreciate the care they take of Luna while I am out of town.

I used Harmony Dog Training just about a year ago for multiple one on one training sessions. My dog Ollie, was one year old at the time, he didn't have much exposure to groups of people, new people and new places so I wanted to make sure I introduced him in a safe manner.

Signing up online was seamless, Luis responded within 24 hours and from there I was able to easily use the online platform to choose a day and time that worked for the consultation. Luis took the time to meet Ollie, ask us extensively about what we are looking for and provided us a recommendation on how many weeks we'd realistic need to accomplish what we are looking for.

Over the following month and a half, we went to a bunch of different environments, ranging from the neighborhoods near the facility, to Blackstone Blvd, Lincoln Woods and even the Pedestrian bridge in Providence. We worked on consistent heeling, meeting new people, introducing new places. I had an e-collar so I was able to train using that as well.

What I really appreciated and expressed many times to Luis is that with using a trainer like Luis, you get personalized instant feedback. Before using Luis I tried using YouTube videos, which are good for ideas but is nothing compared to what Luis can provide.

I am now extremely confident with Ollie in public. His recall and heel are great; he doesn't growl or bark at people in public. He's a happier and healthier dog. We will definitely use and recommend Luis and Harmony Dog Training for any of our future needs. Thank you Luis!!

We truly can’t thank Luis enough for what he has done for our dog, Petey. After just 5 weeks of working with him, the results have been nothing short of miraculous.

When we first started, our Petey who is a Husky/Malamute   rescue mix was a fearful puppy who wouldn’t even come out of his crate. Today, he literally runs to greet Luis at the door. The transformation has been incredible.

We rescued Petey at 3 months old, and he struggled with low confidence, fear of being outside, and severe reactivity to loud noises that would send him into full blown panic. Another trainer had told us he was an “extreme case” who would likely need medication, which was heartbreaking to hear.

That night I immediately began to look for a new trainer and found Harmony Dog Training and sent off an email.  The next morning, Luis contacted us and came to meet Petey in person. Something I found other trainers just didn't do, he responds super fast.  That level of responsiveness alone stood out, NO other trainer we contacted had done that.

Luis met Petey that morning and he assured me he was not an “Extreme Case” and had Petey out of his crate and interacting with him.  I was totally blown away.  Luis explained Petey was struggling with lack confidence and was not and extreme case.  But, it was not only the explanation but it was his delivery of the information.  He was very clear but did not make me feel like I was a bad dog mom and THAT meant the world to me.  His training sessions have brought a lot of insight, into what I was doing right and doing wrong. He also informed me of cues that I would never have ever known existed.   It’s very clear Luis cares about the pups and people he trains, and wants them to succeed, because that’s what its about, the synergy of dog and human learning together. He wants both to succeed, and that partnership is exactly what makes his training so effective.

He’s also very responsive via text, which I truly appreciate.

I’d say if you are even questioning where to go, you need to look no further than Harmony Dog Training.  Luis is the best there is!
We are so happy we found Harmony Dog training and "Mr. Luis"!

I can't recommend Luis & Harmony enough- in 4 weeks I have already seen tremendous growth and improvement with my rescue mini schnauzer, Petunia. We didn't get the full picture of her behavior from the rescue we got her from, and found out pretty quickly when we brought her home that she was reactive to a lot of things. We were unable to do things like pick her up to put her in the car, wipe her paws, dress her for cold weather, brush her, dry her off if it was raining out...really touch her at all without her going full gremlin mode and biting without warning. I was completely overwhelmed and tried methods to help minimize her biting that I found online, but didn't see improvement.

I was pretty desperate when I contacted Harmony for guidance and I got a call back from Luis almost immediately. I really appreciated that he talked me through all my options and also acknowledged that I was put in an unfair position from the rescue (she was in foster for over 6 months so I believe they knew of her behavior and didn't disclose it) which was validation I needed to hear. He told me it would be a lot of work, but assured me that it would be worth it. He was so right!

After 4 weeks, I can pick her up and put her in the car for trips to the park and appointments no problem. I am able to dry her off, touch her paws to my hearts content, put sweaters on her for walks when the weather is super cold, it's amazing. Petunia and I have been able to bond through training, and seeing her improve and gain confidence is so worth the cost of lessons.

An added bonus is that All 4 Paws Grooming just opened a location right next to Harmony, so Petunia is able to get groomed in a calm environment that focuses on her needs and takes their time. The last groomer I brought her to was unable to use clippers on her or bathe her due to her reactivity, and she had zero issues at All 4 Paws because of their approach and the training we have gone through. I am so grateful she can experience grooming stress-free and Petunia looks so cute! Having everything in one location is convenient and also feels like a little community that cares about the wellbeing of dogs and owners alike. If you're thinking about bringing your dog to Harmony- do it!
