Wild Paws Training

Shannon has been a great trainer to my dog Noel (dog reactive due to prior trainer maltreatment). She was patient and willing to explain Noel’s detailed behavioral tendencies to me. Also, I can tell that Shannon truly cared about my dog as evidenced by Noel’s positive level of comfort with her after their first session. Lastly, Shannon was awesome at managing expectations for training, no false promises/guarantees, just honesty. Highly recommended!

I have the pleasure of working with Shannon at Wild Paws to train my beloved dog, River, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Shannon's expertise and dedication to her craft truly made the entire process a positive one from start to finish. From the moment we walked through the gates of Wild Paws, we were greeted with warmth and enthusiasm. Shannon's passion for dogs and training was evident right away, and it put both River and me at ease. She took the time to understand River's unique needs and personality, tailoring the training program to suit him perfectly. Throughout the training sessions, Shannon demonstrates exceptional patience, knowledge, and a genuine love for dogs. Her techniques are highly effective and ensured that River not only learned new commands but also enjoyed the process. Shannon's ability to connect with River and build a trusting relationship was remarkable. What sets Shannon apart is her commitment to the overall well-being of the dogs she works with. She goes above and beyond to create a safe and supportive environment, where dogs can learn and grow. Her deep understanding of dog behavior and her ability to communicate that knowledge to owners like myself is truly invaluable. In addition to the exceptional training sessions, Shannon provides me with ongoing support and guidance. She was always available to answer my questions, offer advice, and provide reassurance when needed. Her dedication to both River's progress and my understanding of his training was unwavering. If you're searching for a dog trainer who is not only knowledgeable but also compassionate and dedicated, look no further than Shannon at Wild Paws. I wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone looking to enhance their relationship with their four-legged companions. Shannon and Wild Paws have my utmost respect and gratitude for the transformative experience they provided for River and me. Thank you, Shannon, (and Amanda!! Can't forget to mention you!!) for your outstanding work and for helping River become the best version of himself. Wild Paws is a true gem in the dog training world, and I am forever grateful for the positive impact you've had on our lives.
