Pavlov Dog Training - Portland

We worked with Meredith, who magically transformed my anxious and naughty girl, Ashley, into a well behaved and much more confident version of herself. She is a dream to walk, her recall is excellent, and she pays attention to me and what I want. An unintended benefit is that she came out of her shell and loves to play with other dogs, which is great for her mental and physical health. Meredith also gave us lots of helpful advice about Ashley and our whole pack. When we have seen Meredith for follow up training, Ashley is so excited to see her. I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Meredith and the benefits bestowed upon our family! I highly recommend this program.

Can’t believe how great our experience was with Pavlov here in Portland, OR. Meredith was effective and considerate of both our furry friend Annabelle and us humans as we learned how to enforce desired behavior. Our 3 year old basset hound was quite the wild girl and now she is in control and follows the rules. It has really helped bring us closer with her and we are so thankful! 10/10 recommend anyone giving Pavlov a shot!

Highly recommend Kylah and the 3 week board and train off leash program with Pavlov Dog Training! My 16 month lab puppy is always very excited to go on walks or adventures, but had trouble focusing and not letting the distractions or excitement take over. He knew the basic commands, but wasn’t proficient at always listening to them, and had lots of trouble with distractions and any duration commands. But after Kaylah worked with him, I can’t believe that I can now take my puppy off leash on walks and even if he sees other people or dogs walk right by him, he will stay and listen to my commands!! He walks in perfect heal, on or off leash. He is now a perfect dog to take to a restaurant/patio, he will stay in place and be calm for long periods of time. I’m excited for all the summer activities that I will now be able to enjoy with my well trained puppy!

Kylah did wonders with Theo, our very excited 1 year old golden retriever. Before his on leash board and train he was terrible on leash, couldn’t coexist with our two older dogs, and couldn’t just be calm. We had trained our older two dogs ourselves but Theo was especially difficult and stubborn. I knew we needed help to train him. After two weeks with Kylah he walks in a heel, can stay in place (no matter how excited he gets), and is able to relax and coexist with our older dogs. Absolutely life changing and has lifted a huge weight off our shoulders! One of the best parts is you can tell Kylah truly cares and loves the dogs she trains!
