Great facility - very knowledgeable trainer that truly loves dogs. My dog looks forward to going every week.
Susan has been fantastic with me and my pup Winnie! Agility has been such a fun hobby to learn and bonding activity with my dog.

Signed up for puppy class to socialize pup and learn how to deal with her reactivity. She did well in class and loved puppy playtime at the end of each class. We learned good strategies to help our pup with her reactivity, and she is improving every day. I would sign up for future classes here if they worked into our schedule. Update: I took my Malinois cross here for agility just because she needs the activity and brain stimulation. She loves it and she likes Susan, which is good because she doesn't trust a lot of people. The equipment is top notch and Susan is conscientious of safety aspects. Not realizing I would also need to be trained to run my dog, we both get a good workout. The dog catches on way faster than I do but Susan is very patient. Along with the skills learned, my dog has gained lots of confidence and it makes her happy. She gets excited when I tell her we are going to jump, jump, tunnel! I highly recommend this trainer and facility.
My dog, Miss Koda, and I had a GREAT experience with Paws 4 Fun Dog Training! Susan was extremely knowledgeable and we learned so much! I highly recommend her and her Training Facility.
