Fun Paw Care surpassed all of our expectations. We contacted Fun Paw Care after an incident occured with our boxer/ shepard mix. Russ was polite, reliable, professional and extremely knowledgeable. Russ was gentle and loving toward our baby. One can definitely see the passion Russ has for dogs. As a family, we had tons of questions and Russ was there to answer every single one of them. At the conclusion of our two hour session, we all noticed a difference in Blaze's behavior. I would recommend Russ and Fun Paw Care with my eyes closed. Truly amazing experience.

Russ is terrific with my dog, a rescue mutt who is quite hyper and independent. He instantly connected with Russ, and it has been amazing to watch his progress (listening and following direction) in such a short period of time. Looking forward to keeping up with the training! Thanks!!

My little monster and I have been working with Russell for two years now, and I'm so grateful for the invaluable advice. He sheds so much light on positive ways to communicate with and understand your pet and offers so many creative ways to offer incentives that genuinely shape their behaviors. Highly recommended.
