When our own dogs (service dog dropouts) became older and made it clear they wanted to retire as puppy raisers, we took a few years off to enjoy our seniors and let them live a whippersnapper-free life.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"field-type-long-container\">Sadly, we lost all our dogs in a short span and happily, we&#8217;re back to raising puppies again. My focus is to prevent problems before they start \u2014 for both my pet dog clients, as well as for those service puppies I get to raise.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"field-type-long-container\">I have a predilection for Labradors and Great Danes \u2014 the two breeds I raised for service work \u2014 but love dogs of all sizes.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"field-type-long-container\">Before founding Smart Dog University, I completed my BA and MA in psychology (in the hopes of being an FBI agent) and, when that didn\u2019t materialize, I spent 18 years in the Federal government (Department of Commerce, not FBI) working in Leadership and Management Development, as well as administrative positions. I served as President of the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers (CCPDT) and was a certified therapy dog team with my yellow Lab (and KPA partner), Tango.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"field-type-long-container\">I didn\u2019t set out to be a dog trainer, but my educational background set me up well for this career path. I value strong communication skills and humor as I work with my clients and their dogs.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"field-type-long-container\">In addition to running and microbrew tasting, social media and marketing are two of my other hobbies. I\u2019m active on several different social media platforms, please come join me on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, or my blog!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","excerpt":"<p>Raised 16 service dogs<br \/>\nLate blooming runner<br \/>\nParents have had same phone number her entire life<\/p>","slug":"laurie-luck","image":{"url":"https:\/\/karenpryoracademy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/karen-pryor-academy-clicker-training-classes-faculty-laurie-luck.jpg","id":2536,"extension":"jpg","width":300,"height":300,"sizes":{"thumbnail":{"width":150,"height":150,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","url":"https:\/\/karenpryoracademy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/karen-pryor-academy-clicker-training-classes-faculty-laurie-luck-150x150.jpg"},"ttshowcase_normal":{"width":125,"height":125,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","url":"https:\/\/karenpryoracademy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/karen-pryor-academy-clicker-training-classes-faculty-laurie-luck-125x125.jpg"},"ttshowcase_small":{"width":75,"height":75,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","url":"https:\/\/karenpryoracademy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/karen-pryor-academy-clicker-training-classes-faculty-laurie-luck-75x75.jpg"},"post-thumbnail":{"width":100,"height":100,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","url":"https:\/\/karenpryoracademy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/karen-pryor-academy-clicker-training-classes-faculty-laurie-luck-100x100.jpg"}},"ShortPixel":{"type":"lossy","exifKept":"0","date":"2018-09-24 14:35:27","thumbsOpt":4,"thumbsOptList":["karen-pryor-academy-clicker-training-classes-faculty-laurie-luck-150x150.jpg","karen-pryor-academy-clicker-training-classes-faculty-laurie-luck-125x125.jpg","karen-pryor-academy-clicker-training-classes-faculty-laurie-luck-75x75.jpg","karen-pryor-academy-clicker-training-classes-faculty-laurie-luck-100x100.jpg"],"excludeSizes":[],"retinasOpt":0},"ShortPixelImprovement":"61.75"},"website":"httpa:\/\/www.smartdoguniversity.com","email":"laurie@smartdoguniversity.com","json_ld":{"@type":"Person","name":"Laurie Luck","description":"&lt;p&gt;Raised 16 service dogs&lt;br \/&gt;\\nLate blooming runner&lt;br \/&gt;\\nParents have had same phone number her entire life&lt;\/p&gt;\\n","image":"https:\/\/karenpryoracademy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/karen-pryor-academy-clicker-training-classes-faculty-laurie-luck.jpg","url":"","telephone":"","email":"&#108;a&#117;r&#105;&#101;&#64;&#115;ma&#114;&#116;&#100;&#111;&#103;&#117;n&#105;v&#101;&#114;s&#105;&#116;&#121;&#46;&#99;&#111;m","sameAs":""},"global_id":"karenpryoracademy.com?id=2265","global_id_lineage":["karenpryoracademy.com?id=2265"]}],"custom_fields":{"_ecp_custom_4":{"label":"Early Application Savings","value":"Apply by 09\/07\/2025 for Early Application savings of $200"},"_ecp_custom_6":{"label":"Custom Locations","value":"Washington, DC"},"_ecp_custom_7":{"label":"Timezone","value":"Eastern"},"_ecp_custom_9":{"label":"Days of the Week","value":"Combination"}},"json_ld":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Event","name":"Washington, DC | Laurie Luck","description":"&lt;p&gt;Our 6-month Dog Trainer Professional program is for the highly motivated dog trainer who is looking to advance his\/her skills and career prospects to their highest levels.
