                              Welcome! 
 
    Over 80% of the dogs in shelters have been given up due to basic training issues.  It's easy to feel overwhelmed when you have a dog who is constantly jumping, nipping, barking, pulling on the leash, and seems to have selective hearing.  Shari and Devon can help you take back your control and help you teach your dog what you expect of them in every social situation.

    Did you know that dogs can read your mind by watching your facial expressions and your body movements?  They can tell what mood you are in by the energy you give off.  You can also ready your dog's mind by watching them interract people, other dogs, and their enviroment.  There are so many things that humans overlook when it comes to dogs and how they "speak" to us.  The PAWS will help you understand and communicate to your dog so that you both have a better understanding and you can have a closer more meaningful relationship with each other. 
  
    We pride ourselves on using positive reinforcement, coupled with perfect timing, communication, and the right kind of modifications.  We deliver the precise balance of rewards versus correction in a way that will never be harsh or physically harmful to your dog.  We teach you how to play the neccessary "mind games" to guide your dog through their learning process. Shari and Devon are passionate about what they do and it shows through their enthusiasm and their ability to get results. The PAWS wants to set you up for success!
