Pawsitive Play Dog Training

I had a great experience training my Bernese Mountain Dog with Pawsitive Play. As first time owners of a large dog breed we wanted to make sure our pup was well trained. We had multiple one on one training sessions that helped us create healthy long lasting bonds with our dog. The staff was extremely responsive and helpful every step of the way. They explained the reasoning behind dog behaviors and how the training exercises teach your dog good behaviors. They also gave us fun training games to play with our dog each day to continue the training at home. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dog trainer.

Michele is absolutely amazing! We couldn’t be happier with the progress we’ve made with our now 7 month old puppy! We are so grateful we found her and for all of the hard work and attention she has put in to teaching us how to communicate with our puppy Kenji. She is so well organized and makes personalized lessons with detailed homework. She made herself available to us all the time for questions and advice which was so helpful when things inevitably came up between sessions. She genuinely cares and is incredibly thoughtful and knowledgeable. Her genuine love for dogs and animals was apparent right from the start and has made training so much fun for us and our dog. Her approach to training is positive and unique which has helped us build a stronger bond with our pup! We always look forward to training sessions and Kenji does too! I strongly recommend reaching out to Michele even if you don’t think your dog or puppy really needs training... She does a wonderful job educating owners to understand their dogs behavior which guides how we learn to communicate with them!

When you love your dog, you want your dog’s life to be happy and safe. So many trainers are ready to help you with canine obedience or other activities. Michele of Pawsitive Play Dog Training provides you and your dog methods for a lifetime of companionship and happiness. Isn’t that what dog ownership is all about? Michele teaches you to play with your dog in a way that helps your dog navigate our human world with love and positive experiences. My wire fox terrier, Watson, is a great dog but he can be stubborn, headstrong, and 100% terrier. Michele has helped me establish a loving and safe relationship through playful interactions that are easy to master and to adapt to our lifestyle. Besides Watson loves working with her and we have a great time together without stress. Recently, we worked on recall while laying and reinforcing the foundations of focus and self control (for both dog and human). We often receive comments about how well behaved Watson is. Pawsitive Play Dog Training works!!!!

Michele is AMAZING!! She was born to train dogs and people :) I can not express enough how much I have learned from her !!!! Michele’s training methods are understandable and extremely effective. Ive actually enjoyed doing the training with my Labrador and saw a difference almost immediately after a few exercises . It was great !!! I’ve enjoyed working with Michele she makes it exciting, fun and easy to understand !!! Anytime I had questions she was quick and thorough with her response addressing my concerns or problems. We adjusted a few things for my situation. She made sure I got it ! She spent the time needed with me and touched base with me throughout the training process! I could never have gotten my dog to start focusing on me and listening without her at 5 1/2 years of age ! I thought it was just not going to happen ! However, she walked me through even some tougher days ...IN TRULY GRATEFUl! I highly recommend her & her training methods .
