Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
Hi, I have a question. This is my first dog, and I want to train him to go to the bathroom in one place. I need basic training, but I don't speak much English. Can you train him even if I speak to him in Spanish?
And when does the new school year or the new classes start, and what would the cost be?

Diego, Paws N Effect could help you train your dog, the only problem right now they don't have anyone who speaks Spanish.

My dog is trained to basic commands but I need him to be trained as a therapy dog for me as he aleady does it for me I need him certfied so how do I do that.
Paws trains therapy dogs but not service dogs. Therapy dogs visit people. Service dogs are trained to do a specific task.

I have no idea, though Paws and Effect does. They do training of all different types from puppies to working dogs like you mention.

I have a 3 year old mixed breed dog. I have PTSD mostly in remission but sometimes I still get very anxious. Can my dog be trained to respond to my anxiety?
I imagine so, but it may need preliminary training. Also all training there, I believe, is done with the dog and owner.

Hi They don't train service dogs.

Well run excellent training facility that caters to a wide variety dog sports and aspects of training.
I love puppy socialization there, they sort the puppy by size, age and temperament so that they have a positive experience.
Fantastic facility! Loved trialing in scentwork there!
Great place for training and I love the breed handling class
