History
Established in 1980.
«By the late seventies, (yeah, I said late seventies) The Have Leash, Will Train seed was planted. Through the eighties and the nineties, my «Have Leash, Will Train» grew from sapling to a young tree. Now we are well into the new millennium and «Have Leash, Will Train» has become a strong mature tree with deep roots and large spreading branches.
«Proper training and breaking bad habits usually takes them six to ten lessons,» Barry comments. Adding,
«I can help housebreak dogs and crate-training, as well as offer obedience training using verbal and hand signal commands.»
«Over the years, I have worked with every type of dog — sporting, hounds, working, terriers, toy, non-sporting, herding and mutts. I have had success with every breed — poodles, Labradors, German Shepherd, Jack Russells, boxers, bulldogs, yorkies, rottweilers, Chihuahuas, beagles, golden retrievers and more. I am confident I can help you get a more satisfying relationship with your dog. Call me, let’s get started.»

Barry S.
Business Owner
Molding a dog trainer from an early age.
«When I was fourteen years old», tells Barry Stewart of Have Leash Will Train, Inc. «I had a neighbor that owned a puppy store I worked at. I fell in love. Early on I knew dogs would be a big part of my life.»
«I started to learn to train puppies there. And I started to learn how to groom there also. I wasn’t much of an artist and I realized I wasn’t going to be a good groomer but I noticed I had an ability to communicate with dogs. Training was my thing and I loved it.»
U.S. Military Trained Specialist in the Art of Dog Handling
«When I went into the army, I chose the K-9 Corp. The dogs I trained in Okinawa in the early seventies were sent to Vietnam. Realistically, dogs trained for field work must first receive and excel in obedience training. They must know obedience on and off the leash. My dogs were trained to follow commands and to completely trust the handler’s judgment.»
