Dogs Give Us So Much. It's Time To Return The Favor.
Serving Waco, TX Dog Owners
Every dog is different, and effective training starts with understanding the dog in front of you. At Leading With Love Dog Training, we focus on everyday skills, thoughtful structure, and meeting a dog’s physical and mental needs.
By combining enrichment, fitness, giving your dog choice, and everyday manners, training becomes something that fits naturally into real homes — not just something that works in a training session.
How We Can Help
Puppy Day Training
One-on-one daytime sessions for puppies up to one year old who are home alone during the workday. Each visit blends movement, mental engagement, and foundational manners to support healthy development.
This service helps puppies learn how to focus, settle, and make better choices — while giving busy dog parents reliable support.
Canine Group Class
Held at China Spring Country Store (9030 China Spring Rd.) This class is structured for manners, fitness, tricks and enrichment for dogs
A Thoughtful, Supportive, and Positive Approach
Leading with love means clear communication, consistency, and guidance that helps dogs learn without unnecessary pressure. Training is built around positive reinforcement, choice, and structure rather than force, so progress feels steady and sustainable.
The goal isn’t perfection — it’s a dog who understands what’s expected and a home that feels easier to live in.
Meet Your Trainer
Leading With Love Dog Training is led by a Victoria Stilwell Academy–certified dog trainer with decades of experience working with dogs in rescue, daycare, and professional training environments.
This experience brings a balanced perspective — combining compassion with clear expectations — because every dog truly is a study of one.
Our philosophy is centered around these phrases:
Lead, not dominate. Trust, not fear. Teach, not train. Cue, not command. Reinforce, not threaten. Change, not control.
