"Both my dogs have been trained by Pawsitive and they came out with the best manners ever. The love and kindness was always there and my dogs and I appreciate it."

"I never thought my dog would be able to concentrate enough to learn tricks but he did!  Loved it."

Roberta F.

"My dog is a big breed and was a challenge to walk.  Now he has learned to concentrate better and not drag me down the street.

Thank you.  It was fun!"
