About Pooch Pawsitive Dog Training

Teach your puppy great manners and socialize your puppy in a safe, clean environment! Group dog training classes for puppies and adults are held inside our Dog Center. Our certified, formally educated dog trainers teach you the skills to raise your dog to be a social, happy family member! We offer Puppy Socials for socialization, Puppy Kindergarten for puppy manners, and our Puppy Academy program (our daycare program for young puppies (10-24 weeks of age) that includes extra socialization and training throughout the day.) Graduates of our Puppy Academy program are eligible to stay on in our Dog Daycare program. We offer a Basic Manners class for dogs over 7 months of age that teaches foundational manners.

do you offer classes near New London? I have a medium aged rescue that needs basic training, his issues are barking, jumping, and wandering while off leash.

Pooch Pawsitive is outstanding! Heidi and her caring , talented staff create a safe, supportive and fun environment for our dogs to play and learn. Heidi has created a community with resources for all dog lovers who can attend fun socials (that also tire your dog out !) and exceptional training classes. We just completed intermediate manners with trainer Taylor Fordham who made classes into games as she provided strategies to help our dogs learn. Her role plays really helped me learn too! Pooch Pawsitive is more like a community or family than a business! They love all our dogs and know them well. I feel so confident leaving my Astro with them. Astro and I are so happy we found Pooch Pawsitive ! The amazing people who work there make it special !

We are so grateful our neighbor told us about Pooch Pawsitive. As soon as we learned about their puppy socializations we started taking our pup there every Saturday morning we could until he aged out. It was instrumental exposure for our pup and so reassuring for us to be around other new puppy parents when were feeling overwhelmed by all things puppyhood. When we learned they also offer daycare and a puppy academy program we eagerly signed our dog up. Pooch Pawsitive has been such a fun and safe place for our dog. The staff always greet every dog personally and with enthusiasm and it is just so clear how much Heidi and the team care about giving dogs the best place to play, grow, and learn. Unfortunately as our offices open up again our commute and schedules are making it harder to be available to drop and pick up our dog during their hours of operation, but we are so appreciative of the time we had with Pooch Pawsitive and will be looking to send our pup there on our more flexible work days. Thank you to the staff and whole team for making our puppy feel so loved!
