Big shout out to Emma and her excellent recall class. She was focused, precise, friendly, and encouraging to all the dogs and humans in our class and put the process of recall in perspective as an ingoing pursuit. Thank you Emma!

I grew up with dogs and have trained my dog on basic commands and other party tricks but my dog struggles with territory and resource guarding in the home. We took the Trigger Dog class and some private lessons with Emma. I now feel more confident in my abilities to guide Snoop through situations that are uncomfortable for him. Emma came over and helped me consider the lay out of my house and what to practice and where. She sends out follow up notes from the session that are detailed and personalized. Snoopy gets very excited to pull up the the Urban Pawsibilities site because he knows he’ll be rewarded with food and have fun. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for help caring for their pup. I personally had a good time, and am looking forward to signing up for Calm Dog and the nose work classes.
Urban Pawsibilities has been like a second family for our adoptive dog. His care and training has always felt personalized. Our dog loves going there and they’ve helped us so much with our training goals. Could not recommend them more.

Three year update: Urban Paws made our pup so easy we decided to re-complicate our lives with a puppy. We've gotten to do Urban's puppy classes for the first time and are so happy to see our confident, social girl growing with their guidance. Puppies are HARD but the trainers at Urban really know how to work with them! We have been daytraining with the Urban Paws group for around a year and we’re so happy with the results! Our Covid dog came to us with significant separation anxiety, leash and crate reactivity, and general lack of confidence. Thanks to the hard work of Urban Paws trainers, he has made huge progress in every area. He LOVES being dropped off “at school” and we love reading his report cards and getting more training tips every week. Worth every penny!
