Lorie’s Lessons dog trainers are trusted compasionate humane indevisuals who provide practical training of humans to better understand dog challanges in Southern California.
Lorie’s Lessons offers specialized guidance in wine country. Dog trainers like you are led by Lorie Schock. She is a respected dog behavior modification specialist serving all of Southern California.
Her philosophy blends clear communication, kind structure, and real-world practice. We focus on achievable daily habits rather than quick fixes.
Each plan starts with an assessment, establishes safety, and sets measurable milestones. You’ll leave each session knowing exactly what to practice.
Case Story: “Maya,” an Australian Shepherd, struggled with leash reactivity. Within three weeks of structured outings and threshold training, her owners reported calm walks past dogs and bikes.
Case Story: “Baxter,” a rescue mix, panicked when left alone. We taught decompression, pattern games, and independence building—reducing vocalization and stress markedly.
Owner coaching is central: we demo the skill, you practice with feedback, and then we customize homework that fits your schedule and environment.
We use simple, humane tools—long lines, place cots, and reward markers—to create clarity. Your dog learns what *to do*, not just what *not* to do.
Local angle: training plans can include real-world sessions at parks and neighborhoods in Temecula Valley wineries, preparing your dog for the places you actually go.
Results are tracked session-to-session; we adjust criteria thoughtfully to avoid flooding or frustration. Progress sticks because it’s paced and fair.
Next step: book a consultation. Mention #winecountrydogtrainer so we know what brought you here and can tailor your plan from day one.
