Libby was outstanding Kind, considerate, and inclusive She went above and beyond with support She has an amazing talent to make a person feel welcome Wonderful experience her coaching our daughter with her first puppy Our results with our puppy were more than expected Simply a great experience
We learned a lot in our Puppy Start Right classes with Libby! And supervised puppy playtime was invaluable and so cute :)
Pilar was an amazing teacher for me and my dog Zoe. Zoe absolutely loved whenever she came for a lesson and I learned so much on how to properly train dogs. I would definitely recommend them for anyone like me with a puppy who you want to start on the right track!

I highly recommend the Get Pawsitive Dog Training classes. We have two puppies in our home and have signed them both up for separate classes. We've completed the Puppy Start-Right class with our one pup and we found it very beneficial. The instructor, Pilar, was fantastic. She taught us tons of exercises we could work with at home with our puppy. We also found the puppy play time to be very beneficial for our pup to socialize with other puppies in a controlled manner. We've sign our other pup up for Puppy Kindergarten -1, and will be also enrolling our pup who just completed the Puppy Start Right program into Kindergarten too.
