- Behavior consultation

Program details
The AKC’s Canine Good Citizen program is recognized as the gold standard for dog behavior. The Canine Good Citizen Program teaches good manners to dogs and responsible dog ownership to their owners. Working with your dog to teach the CGC skills offers a variety of benefits for you and your pet. In addition to improving your dog’s manners, training also helps enhance the bond between you and your pet. Dogs with solid obedience education are more fun to live with and better behaved around people and other dogs.

Program details
This 6 week class is designed for those dogs who react in a seemingly aggressive manner to other dogs or people particularly while on leash. If your dog barks at, lunges at or demonstrates chaotic behavior in the presence of other dogs or people, this class is perfect for you. We teach alternate behaviors that help the dog dismiss any distraction in his environment including other dogs and people.
Reactive Dog Level 2 will help you and your dog continue to build skills toward calm walks with other dogs and people.

Program details
Dog Agility training is all about building communication between the dog and handler. By navigating obstacles such as weave poles, tire jumps, hurdles, and see-saws, agility not only demonstrates a dog’s athletic ability, but also their willingness to work with their handler to conquer the course. This fast paced, beat the clock sport is fun for spectators and competitors alike!

Hi Maria! This is Donna Savoie, I didn't know that folks could leave messages here on the Google Business page, I'm so sorry to not get back to you in a timely manner. Yes, we do offer classes that will promote a lovely therapy dog team, we offer evaluations through the Pet Partners program. If you haven't taken any group classes before, I would recommend Basic Obedience 1, feel free to give us a call at 508-248-4677 to chat about your dog and the right class.

Pack of Paws is wonderful. I have taken three group classes. They have been great. We took a puppy kindergarten, an intro to obedience and we are currently enrolled in an active dog class. Again these are classes with other people and dogs but they do offer one-on-one should you need it. And it's my understanding that they offer a ton of other classes to meet the needs of you and your dog.
Kayla was such a patient, knowledgeable, instructor. My 5-month-old Cavapoo Murphy really enjoyed going and learning new skills we now practice at home.
Terrific dog trainers who really understand dogs. And a wonderful facility to do it in!
They work directly with the person and listen to what your issues are. Very friendly and professional. They love dogs. They are working with me on past bad training with my recently adopted boy.
