Welcome to Pawsitively Pet Training
Massa"chew"setts Pet Service is now offering in-home obedience training and behavior modification counseling. After years of dog walking and pet care, we are expanding to include positive-reinforcement pet training. This is learning in which pets' behaviors are altered by the positive consequences that follow. We do not use negative reinforcement or punishment. We have an animal-friendly philosophy with a focus on achieving small steps that build success.
Training Services:
- In-home sessions:
Adaptable training plans for a diverse range of objectives and issues. The first consultation is two hours, followed by one-hour sessions, as needed.
- Walk and train combination:
Daytime dog walking with a focus on training.
- Puppy help:
Start off on the right path so you won't need a trainer later!
- Canine Good Citizen
Training and testing for Canine Good Citizen through AKC
