This place exceeded my expectations and I am incredibly grateful. I am especially grateful to Coach Emily who transformed my dog, but most importantly took excellent care of her.

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?

Leaving him there was very hard for me, but Faith made me feel reassured every step of the way that Bentley was in great hands. She kept me updated throughout the entire process with everything going on with him, and their Instagram page posting videos and pictures of Bentley on his own highlighted reel gave me so much peace of mind. Since coming home, Bentley has been doing so well. He no longer jumps on people when greeting them, he walks so much better on leash, and he has even shown improvement with his separation anxiety when being left alone. Every time I visited, I could tell how much Bentley loved Faith and how well he was responding to her training and care. I’m so grateful for everything Faith did for Bentley. You can truly tell she cares about the dogs she works with. Faith is patient, knowledgeable, caring, and an overall amazing trainer. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their dog.
I had faith as a trainer for my dog Cooper and she was absolutely fantastic! Cooper came home as a new dog! The love and care she gave to my dog was unconditional and I’m forever thankful to have an amazing trainer like her!

Emily is a wonderful pet whisperer. My dog Wellington came in for training for high anxiety and unable to regulate .After a week and half at check in my husband and I noticed a difference in my 5yr old dog .He was able to listen and had a sense of calm . The training only got better to him now responding to redirection and listening . He was even able to meet the neighbors dog finally which without training he wouldn’t have been able to remain calm. Thank you again Coaching 4 paws 🐾 for your wonderful services.

I was very nervous about dropping off Coco, especially for three weeks—she’s never been away from me or my family before. Coco is a chihuahua mix with a very feisty, stubborn personality, so I didn’t socialize her much with other dogs growing up. Her trainer, Caroline, has been amazing and extremely knowledgeable. Coco is honestly like a completely different dog now. She doesn’t bark at people or other animals anymore, she listens better, and she’s so much calmer overall.
