Pawsitive Dog Training

Susan is, without a doubt, the top dog trainer in Alaska. No matter how challenging the case, she has the skill and patience to work with any dog. I highly recommend her one-on-one sessions if you're looking for personalized, effective training. Pawsitive Dog Training also offers a wide variety of engaging dog classes. Whether you're interested in competitive training that meets national standards (such as AKC) or fun sessions designed to strengthen your bond with your dog, there’s something for everyone.

The team at Pawsitive continues to work wonders with my reactive Dogo Argentino and teenage daughter. Around the time my dog turned 2, she became reactive with everyone that wasn't me, terrifying my daughter. I sent the dog away to an intensive board and train with another company and worked her for about 2 hours a day with no improvements in her reactivity and was terrified that I would have to get rid of her. Thanks to Pawsitive, I am seeing more and more of the dog she was prior to adolescence and improvements in my daughter's confidence.

Susan and her team are training experts! My lab Kali needed reactive dog training. Being a Covid dog, she was a little scared of people and never outgrew her fear stage as a “teenager.”Reactive dog training was just the ticket. We attended the class for 6 weeks and see lots of progress! Kali isn’t perfect but we now have tools to effectively deal with meeting new people and dogs! The change is Kali was tremendous and we continue to work on her behavior and reactions.They have a large variety of classes and I can’t wait to attend more training.
