What people have asked about this business.

Do u train 4 hearing for myself if so what is the fee at this time

Yes we do train for hearing. The cost will depend on how many classes you'll need to take. a 4 week hearing course is currently $150.

Community answer · All 4 Paws Training LLC · 2019-09-21

Contact Myra Markley...she is the owner. She will give you all accurate info.

Community answer · Jan Hermes · 2019-09-21

They do train for a hearing dog, but you have to have a prescription for the dog from a doctor. They are currently training mine. The dog has to go through several different courses, obedience 1, 2 and possibly 3. Then alerting and then public access. Look on their website, it gives the fees and then email them. This is the cheapest place but it is the best place and the most amazing staff ever. They are all so kind and patient. I love the All 4 Paws family!

Question on Google
Does this place toilet train the dogs ?

In our puppy obedience course we do discuss potty training. If you need help at home our trainers will do private in-home training if they are available. The cost for the in-home help depends on the trainer and distance.

Community answer · All 4 Paws Training LLC · 2019-09-21

Not to my knowledge but they are the best!!! I would definitely touch base with them. I guarantee they have suggestions!

Community answer · Rebecca Eaton · 2019-09-21

Do you have breed restrictions?

No we do not have breed restrictions. However we do not work with aggressive dogs. That's a different type of training.

Great experience with Marci's classes (Puppy and Obedience 1-3). Highly recommended. You have to be prepared to do the work outside the classroom too!

I've had the pleasure of trying out several dog training places, but this one truly stands out as the best. From the moment I stepped in, I knew I had found something special. The trainers here are exceptional. Their knowledge, understanding, and kindness set them apart. The training environment is fantastic. Unlike large facilities, this place is cozy, essentially one room, creating a close-knit and more intimate experience. There's a genuine focus on you and your dog, eliminating distractions and fostering a more authentic connection. As well, they provide detailed sheets after each class, outlining what was covered in the class. This allowed me to continue practicing at home effectively. They handed out a new sheet weekly. The trainers bring their personal dogs and service dogs to the classes. Their dogs are a testament to their expertise. Seeing their own dogs in action convinced me of their legitimacy as trainers – a unique aspect I haven't observed elsewhere. The transparency of their schedule on their website is amazing. You know exactly what you're signing up for, and it reflects their commitment to a well-structured program. Beyond their exceptional training expertise, I can't express enough how grateful I am for the incredibly supportive atmosphere here. During one of the classes, my dog had a few accidents on the floor, and I couldn't help but feel disappointed and embarrassed. Not only did they offer to clean it up and insisted on taking care of it for me multiple times, the trainers handled the situation with compassion and understanding.They immediately reassured me that accidents happen, and that all dogs have accidents sometimes-- especially when they are young and still learning. Their words of encouragement were not only comforting but also genuine. One of the trainers even shared a personal experience of their own service dog having an accident , which made me feel understood and less alone in the situation. It's clear that the trainers here not only excel in their knowledge and skills but also prioritize creating a supportive and understanding environment for both pets and their owners. If you're looking for a dog training center that goes beyond just teaching commands and fosters a compassionate and encouraging space, this is the place for you. If you're looking for a dog training center with knowledgeable trainers, that goes beyond just teaching commands and fosters a compassionate and encouraging space, and with proven success with the trainer's own dogs, this is the place to be. I highly recommend it to fellow dog owners seeking a meaningful and effective training journey.

What a great experience that my wife and I have had with this place! Not only are they a lot of help and AMAZING at what they do, but if you can only afford one class I would tell you it STILL worth going. They definitely only teach you the very basic fundamentals to get started, but it still is definitely something you could take home with you. No matter what level your looking for you won't be disappointed

I have been taking my little buddy Merle here since he was about 5 months old. When we first brought him home from the shelter he was terrified of everything! I decided to take him to puppy class thinking it may help with his confidence. Marci and the team at All 4 Paws Training have been wonderful. We’re just about to wrap up our obedience 2 class, and I’m proud to say that Merle has made HUGE improvements. He is much more confident and my bond with him that was fostered by all of the work we have done on his training is amazing. We still have a ways to go with his obedience but I’m really proud of what we’ve accomplished so far. If you’re thinking about putting your dog into obedience classes do it, you wont regret it!

I have taken my shy dachshund to a shy dog training class and an akc tricks training class. He now has a novice certificate. Trainers are very nice, knowledgeable, and supportive. I'm looking forward to my next class!
