Pawsitive Play Dog Training

Michele was amazing to work with! Her love for animals is obvious, and she gave us the knowledge we truly needed to understand our puppy, Luna. Every lesson was well-planned and tailored to our specific needs, and the take-home handouts were so helpful at home. We truly appreciated the ongoing support; as Luna grew and new challenges popped up, Michele was there to help us problem-solve. She developed clear plans that effectively changed the behaviors we were seeing. We’re so thankful for the skills she gave us to help Luna become a true part of our family!

Michele was incredibly helpful and fun to work with. We had tried a handful of other trainers and classes and not only were they not helpful, but it was always a stressful or frustrating experience. Working with Michele was the exact opposite. She listened to our concerns and developed a game plan, while explaining the “why” behind everything we were doing. We started with a chaotic nervous puppy and “finished” with a much more calm and confident dog. She was very insightful and helped us understand our dog and her behaviors and taught us how to correct or embrace them. I say “finished” because I don’t think we’re done yet, and we plan to continue to work with Michele for all of our training needs as they continue to arise.

We can't say enough good things about Michele and the training she has provided for our dog, who is 1.5 years old. We came to Michele with some specific issues we wanted to address, and she created a personalized training plan with clear instructions on how to work with our dog at home beyond our training sessions. Best of all - she makes it fun! Our dog has had a great time at each of his sessions, and we've seen steady improvement in his behavior. We would highly recommend Michele if you're looking for private training for your pup that addresses the specific challenges you're experiencing. Thank you, Michele!

We couldn’t have been happier with the training our dog received from Michele. She truly understands dogs and knows how to communicate with dogs in a way that is compassionate, effective, and fun. Michele has a positive approach with clear guidance and encouragement. She took the time to get to know our dog, listened to our concerns, and gave us advice to use at home. We highly recommend Michele to anyone who is looking for a knowledgeable and caring dog trainer. Melanie, Matt, and Reece
