About Marko Russell
Marko Russell, Canine Lifestyle Specialist & Founder of Canine Lifestyle Services
For over a decade, I’ve helped dog owners move beyond basic obedience and into a lifestyle that produces long-term, reliable behavior. My work blends Balanced Training, structured grooming practices, canine nutrition education, and real-world behavior modification—bringing clarity and consistency to dogs and owners who have tried “everything else.”
Before founding Canine Lifestyle Services, I spent more than ten years building Lucky Dog Training into one of the Coachella Valley’s most trusted Balanced Training programs. The hundreds of dogs and families I worked with there shaped the foundation of my expertise—teaching me what truly creates lasting change and what collapses the moment life gets busy.
Through that experience, I learned something critical:
Training alone isn’t enough.
To create a reliable, well-adjusted dog, you must redesign the lifestyle that surrounds them.
That realization became the backbone of Canine Lifestyle Services.
I don’t just train dogs.
I coach people.
I design routines.
I simplify daily management.
I reshape the entire dog–human dynamic.
My specialty is transforming overstimulated, anxious, reactive, or unstructured dogs into clear-minded, reliable companions through lifestyle design—not quick fixes.
What My Work Involves
• Training
• Structure
• Grooming habits
• Nutritional support
• Owner coaching
• Behavior strategy
• Environmental management
Today, I work with families, busy professionals, snowbirds, seniors, and lifestyle-driven clients who want more than another training program—they want a holistic system they can realistically live with.
Alongside my private work, I run a growing digital education platform through:
• SKOOL
• Patreon
• YouTube: @MarkoRussell_CLS

My mission is to make high-quality canine lifestyle education accessible to anyone who wants clarity, structure, and a practical path to success with their dog.
