SPECIALIZED PET CARE SERVICES
PUPPY/RESCUE DOG PROGRAM
Taking care of and raising a puppy or rescued dog is a lot of work, especially if you work full time. Let us help you! We will come to your house and work with your puppy or rescued dog 3-4 times per day on house training, socialization with new people, and basic obedience training. Each session is 30 minutes long. At the Meet and Greet, we will get a list of your basic training requests. We will journal all of the activities that we worked on each day so you have a record of all of your puppy's accomplishments. (Angela is your dog trainer and dog walker)

REACTIVE, SHY, FEARFUL DOG PROGRAM
Owning a reactive or fearful dog can be very challenging and overwhelming. It also can be embarrassing, frustrating, and isolating. Walking your dog is supposed to be enjoyable but a reactive dog can make you dread going for a walk, especially when your pup barks and lunges at other dogs and/or people. It doesn't have to be that way! We have a special place in our hearts for reactive dogs and want to work with you to teach your dog new skills to reduce the reactivity.
Pawsitive Dawg will work to develop an individual training plan to help your reactive dog. Using only positive reinforcement and force-free training methods, Angela will work with you to expand your dog's world. While the process is not easy; with patience, love, and consistency, change can and will happen!
​
To get started, please call or email us. Depending on your dog's needs, we may refer you to our preferred dog trainer, Janet Vera, owner of Janet Vera Professional Dog Training, before we can start working with you and your dog. We look forward to speaking with you to discuss your needs.

WALK & TRAIN SESSIONS
Using only positive reinforcement and force-free training methods, Angela will work with you to expand your dog's world. This service is intended for dogs that are reactive to other dogs while on leash, dogs that pull, or dogs that are shy/fearful and need extra time to warm up to people. While the process is not easy; with patience, love, and consistency, change can and will happen! Angela is the only dog walker offering this service so space is extremely limited. Your dog walker is also a dog trainer. We must walk and train your dog for a minimum of 2 sessions per week in order for this program to be effective. Over time, we may be able to transition your dog to a Fear Free Certified Dog Walker and then a consistent dog walker trained with Fear Free methods but not certified yet.
​
SOCIALIZATION SESSIONS
Angela will work with your shy dog to slowly introduce them to staff members. There will always be two people walking your dog on these visits. While the process may not be easy; with patience, love, and consistency, your pup can make new human friends! Angela is the only dog walker offering this service so space is extremely limited. Your dog walker is also a dog trainer. We must walk your dog at least once every week in order for this program to be effective. Over time, we may be able to transition your dog to a regular dog walking session with another dog walker. There is a frequency discount program when you regularly book 3+ sessions each week.
