About PAWS'itive Pals Dog Training

We use paws'itive reinforcement to reach even the most poorly mannered dogs. We cultivate the trust of the dog to facilitate a teaching method for the “furrent” (furparent/owner) and the canine companion. There are numerous methods that are used in training our furry life-partners, however we believe that dogs primary focus is on the resource; thus we use paws'itive reinforcement of food, touch, and verbal praise. When you join the Pal Pack you can feel assured that you are gaining knowledge as to how to work with your furfamily with compassion and care, with respect and reverence, and most of all in the language that your dog is speaking until they learn your language.

My pup Billie has grown up going to doggie day care! She loves the staff and the friends she has made there. She is very social with others and not aggressive. She has invited other friends to go there too. I feel good and so does she when she comes home after for a snack and a nap.

Pawsitive Pals has been a great place for my lab to socialize, learn good behavior and help be a break for us humans when we have commitments. We love this place and the support and care our pup has received

I had a reactive large Irish wolfhound and with Lauren's beginning class she went from being a dog we constantly worried about to an integrated part of our dog pact. She is being shown and taken to dog events and behaved well and is very happy!
