All 4 Paws Training, LLC

We facilitate the needs of the disabled to self train their own service dog, enabling them to become self reliant and self sufficient.

Confidence Through Games Enrollment

This course is ideal for anyone who has a shy, nervous or just recently adopted a dog. It takes time to build a good bond and relationship with a shy, nervous or new dog and the games we play in this course are designed to help build that relationship, confidence and engagement.  Each week we will play 2-3 trust and bond building games.
