Over the years I have taken at least 5 different obedience courses - all based on different training methods. This course is the most informative, well rounded one I have ever been in by far. I am extremely pleased with the results and believe that the best has been brought out in my dog. Thank you for your most inspiring leadership! Donna Kubby (Shiba Inu/Basenji Mix)
Bits is a different dog now. She listens and can be well-behaved. I cannot say enough good things about Lori and Paws-itivly Behaved K9s' training methods. I never thought Bits would ever do a command without a treat and now she does all of them without a treat. Amy Bits (Yorkie/Shih-Tzu Mix)
Lilly is a different dog since we started class. Prior to class she was the master, now I am the master. We have mutual respect for each other, which was not the case prior to class. Before classes Lilly was very stubborn, independent and had a temper. She listened only when she wanted to and would "yell" at me when she was reprimanded. Today, when Lilly is given a command she listens with no back talk. I feel she enjoys and appreciates being trained. Leann Lilly (Pit Bull)
Our dog was out of control and we were giving her one last chance with these classes to improve or maybe give her to someone else. After the course, she is more calm, listens better and is more enjoyable and fun to be with. We also enjoy taking her for walks! It was the best money we ever spent on her! Gail & Randy Ruby (Shih-Tzu/Bichon Mix)
I definitely recommend Paws to ANYONE and have given out information to friends with dogs and people at work as well. Love the small class sizes, love the trainer - so easy to work with, and love the results. I feel like I have a closer bond with my dog and that he's actually listening to me and I am the "Pack Leader"! Cassandra Tyson (Boxer)
It gave me the confidence to train and work with her. Debra Nikki (mix breed)
The trainers are very knowledgeable and helpful. Tim & Robin Baley (Golden)
The best thing I've done for him in his 5 months of life is call and inquire about your classes. The degree of willingness to make accommodations when needed is outstanding. Very professional. Tim & Tiffany Tonic (Lab)
Great job! I really enjoyed being able to do the off-leash training while in a controlled environment. I've recommended several friends. Susie Meshka (Lab)
Because the class size was small there was a lot of one-on-one teaching and it was nice to get that feedback right away to either correct something or continue on. Now Max watches me more closely; stays by me no matter what room I'm in and he listens and responds to my commands. Kerry Max (Vizsla Mix)
The most beneficial aspect of class was the overall "pack leader" mentality. It's truly the key to proper training and just living well with a dog. Nancy Maggie (Bernese Mountain Dog)
Obedience training is very important for dogs and this class provides the knowledge and guidance in a positive way. Lyn Tixie and Charlie(English Cocker Spaniel)
Overall we thought the class was great. Tiffany did a great job and we highly recommend the class to other dog owners. Being in a class with 2-4 dogs is much better than 6-8 dogs. Brandon and Jamie Chanel (Puggle)
Hunter is a puppy and we wanted to start him out correctly right from the get go. Our goal was for "us" to learn how to train Hunter utilizing the most effective methods and we feel we were definitely taught that. Sue and Rob Hunter (Yellow Lab)
It was really helpful to have the instructor provide feedback as we learned. Also, it was really helpful to allow children to participate in the training. The personal attention and ability to ask questions specific to our dog really made it easy to incorporate training into ourlives. Kyle and Julie Shadow (Black Lab)
Watching Banzai's response to learning everything; he seemed to really enjoy all the "positive" attention. Cindi Banzai (Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier)
The small class size was very beneficial to us. I've tried various different training facilities and the large class size made the training very boring for the dog and myself. Robin Basel (Bernese Mountain Dog)
I am now able to go on a walk without chasing or following my dog around. Shari Jersey (Labradoodle)
I think the most rewarding part was seeing the improvement in Belle each week. Seeing her watch me as we walk and knowing she's really paying attentino to my movements. I would highly recommend your classes to others. Kathy Belle (Border Collie Mix)
The most enjoyable part of the course was watching Ronnie transform from crazy puppy to a welcomed part of our family. Cheryl Ronnie (Golden Retriever)
The part that I enjoyed the mose was that the training is not done with treats. Most other obedience courses that are given require treats, but here it is realized that when you need your dog to listen, you may not have food. The most memorable part was that he came when I called his name. It makes me feel that he is really listening. Rebecca Galen (Bernese Moutain Dog)
