Testimonials

  •  I am very pleased the the training  offered at The Pawms. Marli is a terrific trainer who "trained" me as  well as Buster. He is now no longer a "door-buster" due to basic  obedience and One-on-One training!"

 These lessons are given in the privacy of  the dog's home and/or at The Pawms. With this package of individual  training sessions we will meet once a week for 5 weeks, and each lesson  is 45min to an hour. 

 

Board and Train

 These personal training sessions are  tailored to the temperament of the dog and the handler. Training  sessions are scheduled for 5 consecutive days of boarding and training  at The Pawms. This helps reinforce the dog's attention to the handler in  environments outside the home setting. After the 5 days the dog and  handler enters into the Rejuvenation treatment.
