About Paws for Thought Dog Training
At Paws for Thought Dog Training, we provide positive-reinforcement based training services tailored to you and your dog. We prioritize a dog-first mentality by identifying what aspects of a dog’s environment, genetic predisposition, and temperament will play a role in determining long-term success. We also account for each human’s unique priorities, capabilities, and lifestyles. Through this lens, we are able to create behavior solutions and training plans that move the human-dog team towards success.

Program details
Virtual training sessions are tailored to out-of-area clients and those who have particularly sensitive dogs that may not be in the best learning position with a new person in their home. Virtual training sessions mirror in-home sessions in both form and function.

Program details
During our in-home training sessions, we first gather background information to build a thorough understanding of the dog and human's needs. We then create a customized training plan and help you implement this training plan with a combination of follow-up and homeschool sessions.

Maddie from Paws Are Us has been training my dog Ellie. Maddie has been so very helpful . She is so good to work with and very knowledgeable My dog is a young puppy and I look forward to Maddie’s future advice and guidance .
Maddie is a wonderful dog training professional. She is thorough and endlessly thoughtful regarding the recommendations and guidance she provides for your pup. Could not recommend her more!

I have worked with multiple trainers in NYC with different approaches. I can honestly say - Maddie provides the most thoughtful, behavioral based training with follow up and support. The documents she provides at the end of the session encapsulate everything we work on - and she is always a call away when I have any questions or snafus - this isn't just a profit driven business but rather science and love based - well worth the investment which I can confidently say others in Brookly are NOT that way. If you're looking for a high quality / caring - support with your fur baby - look no further.
Maddie has been very helpful with the training of our dog (or rather, the training of us, the dog owners/parents). She is very organized, insightful and clear in the guidance she has given us. We saw really big improvements even after just the first session with her!
