An enrichment school driven by our passion and love for dogs
Lifelong Enrichment for Companion Animals (LECA) Academy was established to enrich and stimulate the physical, emotional, mental, social, and instinctive needs of family dogs.
"We recognized that dogs are task oriented, that is they want a job to do, objective oriented, they want to complete their tasks, and are social, they want to be around others. We started there and built something our own dogs love."
Where It Started
Passion
Established in 2017 to fill the gap between what their dogs need and what they could realistically provide given the modern work-family lifestyle.
Research
We partnered with leading dog training researchers, zoo trainers, and master trainers to develop a daily curriculum based on social cognitive learning theory.
Mission
Our goal is simple: help dogs thrive every single day they are with us.
