Alex Lato is no ordinary dog trainer! When asked why he chose this profession, he replies:
“I wasn’t raised by wolves, and I wasn’t born a dog whisperer, but my success comes from hard work, the constant desire to learn – and my passion for dogs.”

Alex Lato studied at Warsaw University of Life Sciences and in 2008 gained a Masters degree in Animal Science. On a practical level, his passion for dog training started from working with Border Collies in sheep herding, and then continued with companion and sport dog training in Warsaw before moving to Finland and becoming IGP Helper/decoy. To this day, he continues to be involved in IGP, in competitive obedience and more recently in mondioring.

In 2013 Alex moved to the UK and, together with his friend, Lila Zachwatowicz, he established Temperament Dogs to provide the highest standard of home boarding and training for companion dogs. His favourite, and most successful, area of expertise is helping dogs that suffer from reactivity.

He is also the creator of the Bravery Boost training programme that is designed to help dogs attain their full potential through confidence and motivation training. Bravery Boost also involves helping dogs who suffer from fears, such as noise sensitivity, those that are reactive and those that feel a general lack of confidence.

Alex is in big demand for his innovative workshops both in the UK, and overseas.
