Initial Dog Training Consultation
All private in-person sessions start with an initial training consultation with one of our Get Pawsitive team members.
During the Consultation
Our Get Pawsitive Trainers give you tips and tricks to engage your dog more through interactive enrichment. You'll learn skills to begin working on right away that will help to eliminate the naughty behaviors and change their behavior.
We'll finish our training consultation with clear next steps and exercises to practice on your own for getting the well-behaved dog you want. We'll also discuss the most appropriate training plan moving forward for continued support.
Private Training
Day Training
Initial Private Consultation Required
No time to train? Have some serious behavior modification to focus on? Day Training is for you! It’s fast, fun and efficient. This option speeds up the learning process by having 2-4 dedicated training sessions/week with the trainer and the dog(s), and a collaborative coaching session with the owner to review what is being worked on. Ideal for the full-time workers or families always on the go!
Similar to a "board and train" but your dog can remain in his own comfortable environment, stress-free while receiving concentrated training specific to his behavioral needs to help speed up results. Day Training is a great solution for specific behaviors such as new puppy training, basic life manners, or behavioral issues. For optimal results,day training usually runs 2-4 weeks.

"She is Pawsitively a lifesaver!"
I started working with Patti when I moved with my reactive dog to San Diego, having no idea how difficult a transition it would be for him. We were in a bad situation & I'd started to fear I'd need to rehome him. Thank the universe I found Patti. She was so empathetic to our situation & had a variety of coping skills she taught us that helped immediately; while we were able to work on his deeper issues over time. My 10 yr old dog continues to improve with consistent practice. It doesn't happen overnight, but it does happen. Patti's teachings helped me keep my dog, I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is Pawsitively a lifesaver!
