About Us
Pawsitive Pooch Dog Training
Science Based Dog Training Provided By Certified Trainers
Our goal at Pawsitive Pooch is for you to build a long-term relationship with your dog based on mutual trust and respect. We reach this goal by using positive reinforcement training techniques and avoiding physical punishment. Punitive training is inhumane, frequently results in an unhappy dog, and does not work long-term. It is a scientifically proven fact that positive reinforcement training strategies strengthen the bond between you and your dog and the behaviors you teach will be long lasting.
Behavior is one of the biggest reasons people give up their dogs to shelters and rescues, which is why Pawsitive Pooch is passionate about training you how to train your new puppy or dog. Pawsitive Pooch believes that dogs and their families deserve the very best life together.
"I strongly recommend Kathleen as a trainer for your puppy! There is no better way to get your puppy on the right path to being a well-behaved dog that everyone will enjoy than to take one of Pawsitive Pooch’s classes. Not only will your pup learn a lot, but you will too. I have known Kathleen for the past 18 years and have worked with her in many capacities around dog rescue, training, spaying/neutering. She’s the best!"
