My dog Bowser did the three week boot camp with coach Zach, and I am very satisfied with his progress. Looking forward to joining some of the included follow up classes to extend the lessons and keep him improving.

We don't have potty training or leash walking issues. We have dog fighting aggressive issues with no known triggers. Can you help?. A Large Rottweiler?
I also have a dog that attacks the other dog in my home, (& has fought other dogs too) seemingly unprovoked, did anyone get help with this company for these specific issues?

My dog, Rae Rae, was having a lot of trouble listening, reacting to anything and everything, and some aggression towards other dogs. I put her into the boarded training program here and just a week and a half in, she is a completely different dog right before my eyes. The staff has been incredible with both Rae Rae and me, and seeing her progress on instagram, from text updates, and walking through training commands in person, I am so amazed with her progress and this business. I am so impressed and happy with it all!
I was shock at the strong urine and fecal smell my dog and other dogs stayed in, the amount of daily training, exposure to exercise, and social interaction with other dogs was only about 1hr to 2hrs total a day. For a 3,000 + price. It was not a good experience for my dog or for me.
Caroline is amazing. She sees the potential in every dog and is nurturing and loving. She takes each dog through a process that builds their confidence and responsiveness to training.

Caroline is amazing. She sees the potential in every dog and is nurturing and loving. She takes each dog through a process that builds their confidence and responsiveness to training. Our dog was so scared. Anxiety had taken over and she was afraid of all new situations. Caroline was able to help her relax, start to trust other people, and learn to play with new dogs. By the end, she was out and about in the community, going to different stores, looking relaxed and calm. She also joined their doggy daycare and played with dogs she didn’t know. Caroline was also very helpful with the transition back home; she had us come a few times during the board and train to see the progress and get familiar with new training techniques. She was very communicative by text, noticing if our dog needed more food or a cut that needed attention. Truly, I felt like she gave our dog the same care she would give her own dogs. We are so grateful to Caroline.
Our dog finished the 3 week training program with Caroline and had an absolutely amazing experience! Caroline made sure to keep us updated and when we met explained Nash’s progress and how to best support him. Nash went from reactive in unfamiliar situations to confident. We are amazed at how much he learned. We would recommend Caroline and Coaching 4 Paws to anyone!
