Transform Your Dog Behaviors

Certainly! We address a wide range of behavioral issues, from minor to serious, for puppies, adolescents, adults, and senior dogs. Our training program is tailored to meet the needs of dogs at every stage of life.

Dog psychology refers to the study of how dogs think, behave, and interact with their environment, other dogs, and humans. It’s crucial for understanding and improving social interactions between dogs and enhancing their bonds with both other dogs and humans.

At Zen Paw’s, when you join our pack, we’re committed to helping you achieve a well-balanced dog and a successful training experience. While we can’t offer a 100% guarantee due to variables like commitment, dedication, consistency, follow-through, and patience, we provide unwavering support before, during, and after your training. We’ve consistently witnessed positive changes, dramatic transformations, and fantastic results. Your success is our priority.

Absolutely, we understand the importance of this matter. Zen Paw’s is fully insured and bonded. It’s crucial to ask any potential trainers, walkers, or companies about their insurance. Many companies operate without proper insurance and bonding, which can lead to significant expenses and legal issues in case of incidents involving dogs, walkers, and owners. Doing your homework and ensuring sufficient insurance and bonding coverage is essential for peace of mind.

At Zen Paw’s the length of our in-home program isn’t set by a fixed number of lessons. Instead, it’s customized based on the individual dog’s needs and progress towards its goals. While the duration varies depending on the program and the dog’s ability to achieve those goals, we do have average lengths based on typical learning curves. For specific details tailored to your dog, feel free to give us a call.

At Zen Paw’s, our training approach focuses less on verbal commands and more on establishing you as your dog’s trusted leader. We teach you how to set expectations for behavior in the home and on walks, and how to communicate effectively with your dog in a way that they understand. While you may learn some verbal commands, our training approach tends to favor instinctual methods of communication.

While it’s not mandatory for all members of the family to attend the training sessions, we always encourage their participation. Dogs thrive when all humans in the home are consistent with their training. If some family members are unable to attend, we can provide handouts and videos to bring them up to speed and ensure consistency in training across the household.

You’re not alone in facing behavioral challenges with your dog, but there’s hope. We’ve assisted many individuals in overcoming issues such as leash pulling, jumping, excessive barking, hyperactivity, destructive behavior, disobedience, anxiety, fear, reactivity, and overall unruliness. Our unique approach, rooted in dog psychology, helps us understand why your dog behaves the way they do. We’ll teach you what adjustments to make to achieve the same lifelong results we’ve accomplished with our clients.

Unfortunately, a significant portion of our clients have worked with multiple trainers in the past. The silver lining is that we’re here to be your final solution. Unlike other trainers who might focus solely on managing issues or resort to bribery and treats, our program takes a different approach. We use dog psychology to understand and address the root cause of behavioral problems. By delving into your dog’s state of mind, we can tackle the underlying issues and help them achieve a balanced mental state. Additionally, we focus on your energy as the owner and teach you how to effectively communicate and lead your dog. Our goal is to empower you to create a calm, balanced, and happy relationship with your dog.
