General Info
Ruff Customers Dog Training provides basic and advanced obedience training for city dwellers and their dogs. We work with puppies from 8 weeks of age to dogs of ANY age. We also work with dogs having fear and aggression-related behavior issues. Our methods are cutting-edge, gentle, and effective. We use positive reinforcement, including clicker training and lure/reward. For behavior cases we specialize in Constructional Aggression Treatment (C.A.T.)-based methods as well as standard desensitization and counter-conditioning. Leigh Sansone, JD, CPDT, PMCT, of Ruff Customers, is the thinking person's dog trainer. A lawyer by training, Leigh applied the research skills she honed as a Manhattan litigator to learning the most effective, modern, and humane methods of dog training and behavior modification. She has studied with ground breaking, world-renowned dog trainers and behavior consultants such as Sue Sternberg, Pia Silvani, and Pat Miller. A full-time dog trainer, Leigh teaches daily obedience classes for puppies and older dogs and works privately with dogs having fear and aggression-related behavior issues. Leigh has twin goals: first, to educate dogs and their people while making the learning process enjoyable; and second, to debunk the all-too-prevalent, outdated mythology regarding dog behavior and training methods. Training should be fun! And, best of all, fun, positive training will result in a gratifying lifetime relationship between people and dogs.
