He is an awesome trainer. My dog daisy was a wild child and with the help of Lee she was able to do simple commends. In a few month I will use him again for advance commands the take home homework he sent helped a lot on training my dog.
He brought his dog to train my dog to play and I could not believe how that dog listen to him very well paid attention to him on every command I will be back again for more training for sure thank you Lee

Friday's dog house is the absolute best. I chose this particular company because I was familiar with the owner and I knew that I will get the best of care. Not only did they take time to provide me with hands on training but they also gave me homework to reinforce my puppy's learning I recommend them to anyone. More...

Just completed Puppy Kindergarten and I am so pleased with the results. I dreaded the puppy stage but we learned how to make it easy. My five month old puppy is able to go in public and knows how to behave. I definitely recommend to anyone that has a puppy. We will definitely be continuing our training here! More...

Our 9 month old hound mix Mabel had a great time in private beginning manners class. she learned so much and had a great time learning to play with other dogs at the dog park. It was great to have one on one time to help her focus on the training and not be distracted by other dogs. She learned sit, stay, and walking calmly on her leash. More...

Mr. Lee made it recognizable that my lüna wasn’t untrainable early on. That she would and could be able to walk without pulling the whole time. He completely accentuated her abilities by redirecting her, as well as guiding her. He made my frustration with training, loss of hope, and feeling like a bad dog mom go away. We will be returning to him for intermediate class. I highly highly recommend his training. More...

We want to thank Lee for helping me with basic training for my dogs Diesel and Sol.. Although they were challenging at times they did learn a lot and I saw the improvement. My pit (Diesel) was the most stubborn and will only do the commands on HIS time, but Lee was patient and worked well with him. He also gave me advise and tips on how to work with my Shepard's (Sol) separation anxiety. I recommend Lee!! More...

Let just say wow!!! I have a 4 month old standard poodle. I’m in my 30s and she’s my very first puppy. Lee was beyond amazing. My dog learned so much in the six weeks or dog training. My husband was very hesitant ( because men know everything) but he actually enjoyed it. We both learned little details we never thought of doing. I highly recommend!!! More...

Dexter and I just finished Beginner's training today and I couldn't be more pleased with the training. Dexter is a corgi puppy (14 months old) and stubborn and I am not the best at working with him (due to medical problems) but Lee Robinson was patient with us and worked with us. I am amazed at the progress Dexter has made and look forward to going to intermediate training as a next step in the future. More...

My Norah was a timid yet stubborn girl with little self confidence and no manners and I had no idea how to help her. Thanks to Lee's guidance and patience, I know have a confident well mannered girl who no longer walks with her head down, she actually prances when she walks. I just cannot thank him enough for helping me help her become her best self. More...

We just finished the six week beginner course. Before the classes going for a walk was a nightmare. The dog was always pulling. Now we can walk anyplace at anytime. She walks at the heel, stops, sits, stays and lays down on command. I highly recommend this school. More...

Charley and I started training with Lee when Charley was 12 weeks old. I needed training as much as he did, and Lee encouraged me throughout the 6 weeks. He was flexible with my crazy schedule and last minute changes. We’re still working on his training, but Lee gave me the skills I need to help Charley be a ‘good boy’. Now go play!!! More...

Lee’s training with our lab Clover has made a remarkable difference in her manners and behavior, especially in public. She was 8 months when she started and his training has made taking her on walks, campgrounds and restaurants so much less stressful. Lee also graciously worked around quite a few schedule changes for us. Our family highly recommends Lee to anyone considering dog training. More...

My Peanut just graduated puppy kindergarten 8/25. Lee was a patient teacher. Very caring, knowledgeable, willing to listen and answer my numerous questions. It's obvious how much he loves dogs. My stubborn little cocker spaniel came a long way in those 6 short weeks. And Lee is just a darn interesting and nice guy all around. Highly recommended! More...

Having been in the Military training and working with K-9's, you will love working with Lee. He is very caring and sincere with his profession. The joy he has working with his clients and dogs leaves a smile on his clients face and a tail that wags maybe for a treat. Friday's Doghouse offers you an initial agreement that if you are not satisfied with the first session, you will get a full refund. To date he has not had to refund anyone. You automatically fall in love with Lee's direction and spirit. You likely will be thoroughly happy with your "yes " decision and affordable pricing. Look forward for a bond for you and man's best friend along with Lee"s adventure! More...

What do you love most about your job?
I recently retired to do this full time. Who wouldn't want to be able to play with puppies all of the time?!!
What inspired you to start your own business?
I love dogs. I knew that when I retired, I could do this to help others and make a little money. This does not make you rich! But it is satisfying!
Why should our clients choose you?
With my training and vast experiences with all types of dogs, I can provide basic training along with examples and similar situations to help with many issues.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
We can have sessions on online/remote. I use Zoom. My only caveat is that since this is remote, the parents have to work on the socialization portion in their area.
Puppy Training
Basic training for puppies, 12 weeks to 6 months.
Basic Manners
Basic's for pups 6 months or older.
