Question on Google
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?

We did the Bootcamp for our two Labs (Moose and Oakley) with trainer Zach and are so very happy with the results so far! Not only do I think that the boys enjoyed their time at Bootcamp, they also learned a lot of extremely helpful and much needed training techniques that I could never, ever teach on my own, and we are very grateful for Zach and Coaching 4 Paws for allowing us the pleasure of having our dogs stay with you for training and for taking great care of them while they were with you. Thank you again!

We sent our Rhodesian Ridgeback here for the 3 week training after some concerning behavioral issues emerged in him. We were extremely impressed with Coach Caroline and the knowledge she had about the breed and how thorough she was about relaying information to us about continuation of training at home. Halfway through the program we got to see his progress in person and we were absolutely blown away. He was doing things we were never able to get him to do, all while keeping his personality intact. It was incredible. We got daily updates via instagram stories and that was cool for us to see what they were up to and how our guy was progressing. I will consider them for future dogs and I will certainly recommend them to anyone else looking for dog training. Thank you so much Caroline and everyone at Coaching 4 Paws! You guys are the best!

This was our first time doing any sort of training program for our dog. I got him 5 years ago, and never pursued any official training, until some of his behaviors really started to take a toll! He spent 4 weeks at Coaching 4 Paws. All the staff was super friendly, especially his trainer, Faith, who put us at ease the day we dropped him off! Their communication was great and always gave us updates on the status of our dog and how he was doing. The team has been great since we came home, answering any lingers questions or helping troubleshoot any troubles we may be having. We still have work to do on our end to reinforce the skills he learned, but we know we will be supported the whole way, and have a calmer and better behaved dog!

Coaching 4 Paws has been great. Lucy has learned so much and Coach Faith has been awesome. We did a 3 week boot camp and are looking forward to keeping up with the master classes. I'd definitely recommend them. Staff is super friendly and very helpful!
