We took in our dog, Griffin, who had spent his first five months in two different shelters and…read moresuffered abuse from a previous owner. He was scared, reactive, and only allowed a few people near him without showing signs of aggression. After just one class, we noticed a difference, and by the end of all the classes, it felt like we had a completely new dog. Griffin is now the happy, confident dog he was always meant to be. What made Pam so incredible was her approach to training both Griffin and us. Dog training isn't effective if the trainer only focuses on the dog--it's just as important to teach the owners. Pam showed us how to work with Griffin every day to reinforce his progress. She was always available to answer texts and provide advice between classes. Her dedication and expertise made all the difference, and the results exceeded my expectations! I highly recommend Pam! Every dog has the potential to be transformed with the right training, and Pam truly delivers that.

I highly recommend Bobby at Positive Changes Dog Training! I'm honestly pretty picky when it comes…read moreto dog trainers because I used to work at a doggy daycare so I'm familiar with different training styles and really wanted someone who actually knew what they were doing. I wanted a trainer who leaned toward positive reinforcement but also understood that every dog is different and sometimes you need to use different techniques depending on the situation. I originally wanted to do group classes but was nervous about being around a bunch of dogs and owners who weren't prepared. I really liked that Positive Changes has you do private training first, which made me feel SO much more comfortable going into my first group class. My anxiety was definitely higher than my dog's, and he ended up going great! Bobby is extremely knowledgeable and does a great job explaining things in a way that actually makes sense. He even used analogies related to my everyday life that helped things really click for me. The biggest thing I've learned is that training takes consistency and work at home, but when you actually practice what Bobby teaches, you can really see the results. I'm so happy with the progress Stix has made, and after being so picky about finding the right trainer, I can confidently say I found him. I really appreciate Bobby's knowledge and approach, and I couldn't be happier with our experience!

We completed six sessions with Bobby to help address our dog's aggression and reactivity, which…read morehave been present since he was just a few months old. During the training, we focused heavily on "place" and learning how to use the e-collar. While our dog did pick up the basics, he unfortunately continues to struggle with reactivity and aggression even after the sessions ended. As first-time dog owners, we were hoping for more hands-on guidance. Much of each session involved conversation and verbal instruction, but we didn't feel we were shown the techniques in enough detail or given sufficient practice with our dog to feel confident applying them on our own--especially given his specific behavioral challenges. Bobby is very personable and clearly knowledgeable, but we were hoping for more direct interaction with our dog during the sessions. After training ended, we reached out about the ongoing issues, and while Bobby was able to fit us in for an additional session, it mainly revisited the same methods that hadn't necessarily been effective for us. I believe Bobby would be a great fit for dogs that are already fairly obedient and just need structure or refinement. However, for dogs with more serious behavioral concerns like aggression or resource guarding, this approach may not be the best match. Ultimately, we decided to pursue additional training elsewhere to better meet our dog's needs.

From the very beginning, Suzanne was incredibly warm, patient, and knowledgeable. She generously offered me a free consultation and took the time to answer all my questions in detail, providing practical advice that immediately made me feel more confident about raising my puppy. Her passion for dogs and genuine care for both the puppy and the owner shone through in every word. I felt truly heard and supported, not just given generic tips. I'm so impressed by her approach that I'm really looking forward to working with her and continuing this journey together. Suzanne, thank you so much for your time, kindness, and expertise.

From the moment we started, I felt welcomed, supported, and understood -- not just as a participant, but as part of a family. Our trainer, Mr. Matt, has been absolutely phenomenal. His patience, knowledge, and dedication shine through in every session. He truly takes the time to understand both the handler and the dog, creating a bond built on trust and confidence. Because of his guidance, Luca and I have grown in ways I never imagined possible. I also want to give a huge shoutout to Stephanie, the amazing founder of Michael's Angels Paws. Her vision, compassion, and commitment to helping others are the heartbeat of this entire program. It's clear that every trainer here follows her lead -- they're not just experts, they're kind, passionate, and genuinely care about every team they work with. Every trainer at Michael's Angels Paws goes above and beyond. Whether it's offering encouragement, sharing tips, or celebrating every milestone, they make you feel like you belong. It's more than just a training program -- it's a community built on love, respect, and purpose.

Both my dog and I have fallen in love with her. She pulls up at my door, my dog jumps in her van, I pay online, and my dog comes bouncing back on the front door 30 minutes later.
