We did their Puppy school with Tass and it was amazing! It changed the way I approached dog training. I highly recommend it! Normally when I call them I speak with Angie, she is great too! She knows literally everything about Positive Pets!

I can’t recommend Positive Pets enough for dog training! I brought my 9-month-old puppy, Messy, in to work on recall, sit, stay, and jumping, and the results were immediate. Donny was fantastic—he truly understands dog psychology and how owner actions impact behavior. He offered a great deal in short, highly effective 1:1 courses and went above and beyond by providing follow-up videos and written instructions so we could stay consistent at home. The entire staff is incredibly kind and patient. If you need a trainer who genuinely cares, this is the place!"

We had a great experience with Positive Pet Dog training. Our dachshund has changed in so many remarkable ways. Thank you for helping us get him to behave in a way that is no longer embarrassing to us.

Absolutely loved taking my dog through the transformation academy. I worked with Justin and Ayla, and they both were awesome! I would recommend positive pets to anyone who wants a well mannered and trained pet.

We have had a wonderful experience with Positive Pets working with our Pup Daisy. She’s still a spunky lab but we feel we have the tools to rein her in when needed.

Ayla and Justin did a fantastic job helping us train our Malinois/German Shepherd mix. We’ve just completed the one on one training portion and our pup, Penny, has shown massive improvement. We are excited to progress through the rest of training with Positive Pets!
