For this episode, we brought in a special guest that has worked for years with many of our client's pets: Vladae Roytapel aka The Russian Dog Wizard. Vladae originally started his career in dog training in the former Soviet Union; he was a Red Army and Soviet Union Government awarded trainer before relocating to Michigan here in the USA. Since that time, the decoration of Vladae as a world-renowned professional dog trainer has continued. He won multiple awards during his time in Michigan, including honors from the state government. During his time in the midwest, Vladae become very popular through multiple news programs, radio shows and even appearances on CNN and Late Night with David Letterman. Vladae is now located in Southern California's Orange County. He has been named the #1 ranked Best Pet Trainer for the OC Hot List awards in 2014 and 2016. Vladae offers affordable dog training classes of many varieties. His extremely effective dog training techniques are based on his stunning ability to communicate directly with your dog during training and then teaching you (the human) the same techniques. You can listen to us talk about the top 3 reasons that pet owners struggle with their dogs. Vladae discusses some of the techniques that he uses with his clients that have been amazing people for well over a decade now; many times with immediate same-day results.
