Kami has been outstanding in helping us meet our goals with our dog during private training lessons at Good Dog Paws. When we first adopted our dog, he was extremely anxious in all new environments and situations, making it difficult to take him places with us. He is our first dog, and we lacked knowledge and experience for training him. During the first session Kami reviewed our goals thoroughly with us and spent time gaining our dog's trust.
Each subsequent lesson has had a primary focus with one of our goals. Kami has spent time explaining the theory for each training goal, demonstrated what we should do with one of her dogs, demonstrated with our dog, and walked us step by step through practice at home with our dog. It has been a fabulous experience that has allowed us to bond more with our new dog, as well as build his trust and confidence to help with his anxiety.
We now feel assured that we can take him into public and new situations, give him a job, and have a positive experience instead of worrying about what he will do or how he will react to people. Thank you for helping us build our knowledge of our dog's behavior and how to increase both his and our confidence in new situations. We are looking forward to the level 2 group class that will start soon!

Owner drugged my dog! Took my 9 month old lab puppy here for daycare. He had never been trained or socialized. When I came to pick him, the owner had a muzzle on him and he was panting heavily after taking it off. Apparently she said he tried to bite another dog. I specifically told her he had not been socialized this could have been prevented had she of listened to my instructions.
When I put him in the car he was extremely lethargic and could barely move. Was going to take him vet but next day he seemed fine. He wasn't just tired he was definitely drugged with something IMO. His eyes were droopy and we had to carry him out of car. Not normal for a high energy puppy. Please don't trust these people with your dog alone!

I took my dog there regularly several years ago! My dog growled at another dog as they were entering the establishment, & the woman who runs the kennels smacked my dog in the head! Needless to say, that was the last time I boarded him there! That was uncalled for; he was doing what dogs do! And to think she is a dog trainer!
