What people have asked about this business.

Is there a way to train a dog not to attack other dogs or cats cause I want to bring my dog inside but she attacks other dogs and cats

This can normally be addressed, but you will need to contact NWA School directly to set something up. Messages here go to the people who have been to the school- it's fantastic by the way. Highly recommend.

Question on Google
Hi! My Dog is a 7 month mini Dachshund And he has an issue with bitting everything and peeing everywhere... Do you think u can help me?

Hi MaKolein, yes we can help. At 7 months most pups have learned to relieve themselves outside. , I have found that it does take a little more than just trying to show him where he's supposed to relieve himself at this age. Also, at 7 months they're past the puppy stage of nipping and biting so I would say it's time to evaluate your puppies biting and come up with a plan to change that behavior. You can call us at 479-301-5027 and we can set up an appointment to help resolve both of those issues. Feel free to check out our website www.nwaschoolfordogs.com

Shanthi has been absolutely amazing with our dog, TJ! My husband and I adopted him this spring and he’s our first dog we’ve had. He did a 2 week board and train with Shanthi in July and learned SO much! Shanthi asked us questions to figure out what our concerns and goals were for TJ beforehand. She has been so patient with me as I’ve learned how to implement the same methods at home that she used with TJ. We’ve seen huge improvements in his leash manners, sit, stay, here, etc and it’s made our lives easier. 😀 Shanthi has also gone out of her way to reach out and check on how he’s doing, and she’s always willing to answer the many questions we have! She’s even helped us out with last minute boarding for TJ, and we know he loves going to see her and is in great hands. We cannot recommend NWA School for Dogs enough!

Great owner AND dog training. Shanthi has been a steadying and calming influence on our high strong pooch. She has given excellent counsel and has encouraged us to feel free to check in whenever we have any issues or concerns. We highly recommend her services. A+

Oh, my word...where do I begin? I've been taking my goldendoodle puppy, Seika, to Shanthi's NWA School for Dogs and I'm beyond ecstatic with the results! Seika has learned several basic commands and we're working on some specific commands I've requested as well. Seika LOVES going to the school! When we drive up, she can hardly contain herself with joy. When she jumps out of the car she literally DRAGS me to see Shanthi! This has been a wonderful experience for both Seika and I, and I highly recommend NWA School for Dogs if you would like your pup to learn how to behave and have a good time doing so! <3

Awesome! She gave me some great tips to help really open up my dogs mind. She really payed attention to what my dog actually needed instead of putting just a band aid fix on it. I cant wait to continue with this training.
