Paws N Play offers in-home private dog training to address dog behavioral problems and group obedience and agility classes and workshops. The trainer is a certified dog trainer who uses positive re-inforcement techniques and specializes in resolving reactive and aggressive behaviors, anxiety issues, fear related issues, food stealing destructive behaviors and all self control issues. The trainer is very knowledgeable of dog behavior and will tailor the class to the dog’s needs. She balances the class with great information, activities and making sure the dogs are enjoying the process too. She makes sure all the dogs and humans are safe when dealing with reactive dogs. The trainer is a one in a million trainer and person. She is incredibly present, knowledgeable, patient, kind, genuinely interested, concerned and compassionate. She is direct and absolutely delightful while being so. She comes equipped with decades of study, dog ownership, experience, insight and tools. She is diligent and an amazing listener, does not price gouge and offers a variety of classes that both inspire and suit the dog and owner. The tools taught in obedience classes as well as the social skills dogs get from dog play on Saturdays has been amazing. Dogs progress so well and Paws N Play has been instrumental in this success.
Michelle’s beginning agility class is a real BLAST for Blue, myself, plus all of our classmates. Michelle is a positive trainer. Whatever mistake you make she’s there to lead you thru the correction in a positive way. Each piece of equipment is taught weekly. So, you know where you have been and where you’re going next. The structure makes it a comfortable learning environment for both your pet and yourself. So, if you have an anxious pooch, as I do, this has been a huge plus to our achievement without any unwanted incidences. Thank you! We look forward to our classes!!!
I was impressed with Michelle Jackson from the first day I called approximately 3 weeks ago. I was looking for a trainer to help us curb our Shetland Sheepdog’s barking. When I read about Michelle on her website and all of the glowing reviews, I decided to give her a call. The first phone call sealed the deal. Michelle listened intently, never rushed me (and I talk A LOT), and offered valuable insight. We scheduled a session at our home. Michelle was highly communicative both before our session and checked in with me two weeks after to see how things were going. When Michelle arrived at our home she came with a plan (an extensive and detailed plan), and page upon...read full review
Michelle provided a private, in‑home training session for our 7‑month‑old rescue puppy who struggles with anxiety and low confidence. She was incredibly patient and knowledgeable, and gave us practical, easy‑to‑apply guidance on helping him feel more comfortable around strangers and build confidence through training over the coming weeks. We feel much more equipped to support him moving forward. I would highly recommend Michelle to anyone navigating the challenges of a rescue puppy.
