Kevin is the best! Everyone at Paw and Hand is so knowledgeable and helpful. I’ve had Kevin work with both my dogs and he’s done an amazing job. The time he’s taken to ensure I understand and can follow through with the training has been great. The continued support and encouragement the staff offers is hugely appreciated. It truly feels like they want nothing more than for us to be successful. I can now enjoy taking the dogs out in public instead of worrying about their bad behavior. Definitely a worthwhile investment!

We had a 8 month old Golden Retriever that was taking US on walks! Our daughter referred us to Paw & Hand K9. We listed all the basic commands and problem with counter surfing we wanted addressed.
Kevin was her handler/trainer and felt our pup really responded well with the training. We would highly recommend Paw & Hand K9 Still a pup but does well on leash & off leash.

Can’t recommend Paw and Hand K9 enough. Our Great Dane (Dot) had some behavioral issues that weren’t addressed by us early on and things got a little out of control. It was not exactly ideal to have a three year old Great Dane that was unpredictable and untrained. A friend referred us to Paw and Hand K9 and we are so thankful we took her there for training.
Merissa and team had her for 8 weeks in their behavioral modification board and train program. They took a dog that I couldn’t control on walks and turned her into a joy to walk and go places with. While we are still working on things (and probably always will be), the amount of progress she’s made all due to Paw and Hand is pretty remarkable.
The effort and care they take with the dogs they train is easy to see and really appreciated. They sent lots of pictures and updates, and the weekly lessons with us during the trainings made a huge difference, not just for Dot, but for the whole family.
Dot’s behavioral issues were never her fault, but Paw and Hand gave her humans the tools we needed to be more confident and assertive with her, which is exactly what we all needed. Dot’s doing so good now and we couldn’t be more proud of her.
If you’re on the fence with Paw and Hand K9 I am confident they can help you and your dog just like they did for us and Dottie.

We feel so lucky to have found the most incredible canine boarding and training team for our boy. Every staff member is caring and skilled at what they do. When we need to occasionally board our dog, they don't just "watch" him - they provide a training refresh and make sure he gets tons of outdoor time, enrichment, and even field trips to parks and pet stores.
It's such a gift to drop him off knowing he's not only safe, but genuinely happy. We trust them completely with his care.
If you're looking for a place where your dog is treated like family, this is it.

The trainers did an amazing job working with my puppy Skye. She has a lot of energy and first got to the training needing a lot of work. Now Skye is well behaved, disciplined, and motivated to continue to learn.
