What people have asked about this business.

Hey I wanted to train my dog to be my service dog is this place good doe that and if not any place in the coachella valley?

Hi Edgar, We train service dogs. If your dog can be trained depends on your dog and the behavior you need the dog too learn. Guide Dogs have their own breeding program and still only have a 20% success rate, simply because the dog is unable to do that behavior. This is why there were over 30 lassies playing one dog. We can come out and let you know if we feel we can teach the dog the behavior you need. Let us know, we are happy to help.

You were recommended by neighbors Gina and Maria. Also by our Vet at P. S. Animal Hosp. Ollie is 65lb 17month terrier mix. Main problems: Over excited when meeting people; regressed on peeing in house. Can you help??

I can help you. My fee is either $125 an hour or 4 one hour sessions for $400 privately. I also offer 6 week classes for $125 let me know what you would like to do.

Valerie is a true professional with a great depth of knowledge that only comes from experience. Before she even came to our home she spent a lot of time on the phone with me to better understand our dogs personalities, quirks and temperaments as well as what we were hoping to accomplish with our 8-1/2 yr. old boxer and 5 yr. old boxer/pit mix. We had tried many other training methods in the past but still were unable to walk our dogs calmly on leashes in a social setting. After our four private lessons we came to a much better understanding of how and why our dogs react the way they do and she helped us to modify their behavior so that they now walk nicely. Valerie also has a great personality and made it very fun. We highly recommend Best Paw Forward. Worth every penny.
