Best Paw Forward offers pet dog training with private lessons in your home, private lessons in my facility, and group classes.
Lisa has been a dog trainer for more than 30 years, and a dog behaviorist for 20 years. She has had many successes helping people and dogs learn to be more relaxed and happy, as well as helping dogs and owners learn the basics of obedience in group classes., Group offerings include STAR puppy, basic, advanced and Canine Good Citizen. I also offer service and emotional support dog training. Together we can train your dog to retrieve items, alert to low blood sugars, turn on lights or brace to assist with balance.
Group classes are an excellent way to work on focus and socialization with your dogs.
You will learn not only about sit/come/down/stay/heel, but we also practice focusing exercises.
Group classes are the perfect place to make sure you possess all the tools to help your dog have everything he or she needs to be a great member of your family and society.
Group classes are suitable for dogs starting at 3 1/2 to 4 months of age who have completed their full series of vaccinations to adult and senior dogs (all dogs must be fully vaccinated) and NON-AGGRESSIVE.
I love all dogs and people, and only want them to succeed!!
Private lessons are for people and dogs who cannot attend group classes.
Pups who are too young to have completed their full round of vaccination are great candidates for private in-home lessons as well to protect them from diseases.
Private lessons for puppies include: crate training, biting, jumping, house training, calming and preventing separation anxiety. For our fully vaccinated clientele we offer in-facility training. We provide the option of zoom training for dogs under 4 months as well..
Private lessons are also excellent for those who have time constraints that prevent them attending a group class, or for those with disabilities. Only fully vaccinated dogs are eligible for private in person lessons in our facility.
Group classes are for fully vaccinated dogs 3.5 to 4 months and older and Non-aggressive dogs. Please contact us for a behavior evaluation if you are unsure if your dog's social ability with other dogs
