Right now you aren’t enjoying your dog as much as you wish you could. They don’t listen quickly enough, and maybe even have some behaviors you’d rather not live with. Jumping, pulling on the leash, not coming when they’re called, or just never settling down around the house!
Whether you need help with manners around the house or even the freedom to take your dog out and about (and know that they’ll listen!), we’re here to help.
Our training is super convenient with lots of options depending on your preferences, and always very gentle so it’s fun for your dog, too. Sign up today for group or online lessons.
Now providing hydrotherapy and daycare for your dogs in Spokane, WA.

What people have asked about this business.
Is this training expensive? I have 2 white male Boxer pups that we got a little over 3 weeks ago. They are about 11 weeks old. They are healthy.
Puppy class is only $145 for an entire 5 weeks. She is an amazing trainer. Worth the money

It depends on what you consider expensive. You pay by the month and can go up to 3 times a week. It ends up being under $15 per session and totally worth it to me.

We absolutely love Pawsitive Connection. Stephanie Niles and her staff are amazing! Over a year ago, we completed a group session with our 2 rambunctious adolescents. Ever since they continue to learn and thrive at her daycare!
Stephanie also has podcasts packed with helpful information. Her rescue work and positive attitude set her far above the rest. The facility is packed with learning fun for the dogs and as a bonus... they get to go on field trips to Her AMAZING Sniffspot!!! (It is so cool) Our dogs joyfully participate in this experience. We highly recommend Pawsitive Connection. We've tried several others and were left unsettled. We feel safe and happy leaving our furbabies. Our dogs get VERY excited when we mention the word daycare. You must plan a visit. The facility is clean, warm, and peaceful. No chaos, just calm canine community fun.♥️

Stephanie is definitely the Dog Whisperer. She "reads" them so well & is so clever at coming up way to make training fun & successful. DayCARE is excellent. Limited number of dogs, my dog gives it 4 paws up!

While I have taken several obedience classes before at Pawsitive dog training, this is the first time for the reliable recall class. Stephanie does an amazing job of making classes fun for my dog and for me. After 5 weeks of classes I’m already seeing significant results with my dog’s recall. I wish I had taken this class sooner and would recommend it to anyone who wants to recall their dog when off leash.

Stephanie has created this whole Pawsitive Connection community and it’s amazing to see. I’ve never seen anything like it. Everyone knows each other and is so kind and cheers each other on when their dog finally masters something. Not many trainers could get their students to return class after class and keep continuing even after you have taken all the classes. The skills you learn make taking your dog out in the real world so much more enjoyable. Stephanie makes it so fun to work with our dogs and want to keep going. I’ve noticed some of these students have been coming to class for years and the relationship they build with their dogs is amazing. I have been in multiple classes over the past year with two of my dogs and I can see myself continuing on for years to come. I have developed a deep connection with my dogs because of the skills we learn through Pawsitive Connection. I have also gained some wonderful friendships through her classes. I can go on and on about her dayCARE and hydrotherapy too. Pawsitive Connection is hands down the very best in the PNW for all things dog!
