After having some reactivity issues with our dog, Denver, at home, we decided we needed to make some drastic changes. Denver did a 4-week board and train with Adam and his staff at Obedient Paws and it was worth every single penny. He was very timid and unconfident, but now that he has structure and knows what is expected of him, he so much more relaxed and comfortable. Denver is still our goofy Denver, but less anxious and more confident. Obedient Paws gave us the tools to continue his training at home and made sure we were comfortable with the rules and new routines we would need to have in place. Adam has also been extremely helpful with follow-up texts and advice even weeks after Denver "graduated".

My wife and I were about to go into the hospital and have our second child, and we were nervous about family coming down to watch the house/kid/dog...primarily because of the dog. Our friends gifted us the cost of 2-weeks worth of boarding, and we decided to use that as a down payment toward the boot camp training. BEST DECISION OF OUR LIVES! Our 1-yr old chocolate lab is now so much more manageable! We used to not be able to take her on walks because she was too crazy. We used to not be able to have people over to the house, unless they were dog-lovers, because she would jump at them uncontrollably. Even in our own fenced-in backyard we'd have issues, whether it be her jumping at our neighbors or their dogs on the other side of the fence, or barking at any activity going on within eyesight. All of those issues have been subdued! Adam and his team gave us and Lucy the tools to be successful in these daily activities. Lucy knows not to jump at the fence or at guests, but if she needs the periodic reminder, we know what to do! She heels when we walk her! Before, you could hardly manage her solo, but now my wife can walk her and push a double running stroller simultaneously! We thought we were just going to have to wait until she was 4-5 years old to experience this sort of behavior from her. Thanks, Adam! And thanks, Obedient Paws!

We brought our 2 year old corgi for reactiveness and resource guarding and although he only spent two weeks in boarding the improvements that he had was phenomenal! The girls are very knowledgeable and we felt that they really cared about our dog. We have tried positive only training and spent so much money on it with no results but after being introduced to balance training our dog has been more confident. He needed structure and obedient paws have helped us and is helping us still with it. We are so thankful to have found them.
