Lauren, Adam and staff go above and beyond for the dogs in their care. They interact with the dogs and also make sure the dogs are interacting well with each other. Our Lab, Luka loves his time here and we have complete peace of mind when we board him here knowing that he's well cared for ALWAYS!! read more

I am so grateful to Lauren and her program. I have a very sensitive breed of dog and I feel that Laura's program, with an early start for my puppy made a huge difference in her long-term health and happiness. The training program relatively straightforward, but the people that complain about the training program are the ones that don't do their homework. Working with your dog is not a quick and easy fix. It takes day in and day out devotion. Lauren gives you the skills, tools and techniques that you need to be successful. Just be prepared to put in the time and the effort. read more

It is such a luxury to have PAWS'itive Pals near by. They have helped with our puppies playtime, integrating with other dogs, training & giving him a safe/ fun place to be I highly recommend you bring your dogs here for any training, boarding or daytime care. We are so thankful to have their support & without them we wouldn't have been able to keep our pup with our work schedules. Please try them out! It will make your life so much easier & your dog will have a great time. read more

I cannot recommend Pawsitive Pals highly enough! Lauren, Sydney, Adam and the rest of the crew are true dog lovers and conscientious professionals. My youngster, Andi, is a beta and has some barky issues when trying to play with other dogs. Lauren and staff have worked to help her confidence and to also correct/redirect her barky tendencies in a positive manner. My pup comes home tired and happy every time. In addition, I work at the veterinary clinic next door to their facility and Lauren always brings dogs promptly to our clinic if she is concerned that they may need medical attention--anything from irritated eyes from the sand pile to small bites/bruises or just not 'acting right' and the clients are always immediately informed and involved. They care about your pup. Period. read more

I cannot thank Paws'itive Pals and Lauren enough for how they helped our relationship with our dog Boomer. When we first got him a year ago he was very reactive and filled with anxiety. It was very stressful. But we knew he had the capacity to learn to enjoy the world and other dogs, I just didn't know how to teach him. Enter Lauren. She reached out to me on a FB post and after checking out their site I decided to give it a try. Grass Valley is an hour away from where we live but we thought it was worth a shot. The change in Boomer and the change in our confidence with him was like night and day. We took the Basic Obedience class and we noticed a significant change in him within 3 weeks. Doing the homework each week was a fun bonding experience and paid many dividends. His confidence and ability to socialize with other dogs has improved so significantly that I can hardly believe where we started with him. With the proper tools he can now participate in life with us like we had always hoped he could. Camping, going out in public, having people over. We take him to socialization classes now when we can and you can tell by how tired he is and how calm he is when he gets home that his time there is well spent. It is absolutely worth the 2 hour round trip drive and I could not recommend this place more. read more

OK, everyone is going to need to kindly excuse my use of CAPS during this review. Unfortunately, Lauren and Pawsitive Pals deserve that level of emphasis, and I insist on expressing myself in the way that they deserve. I was already in love with Lauren and her operation. I was already going to leave a positive review. That said, she really brought it home for us today.... Our very sweet and friendly puppy was attacked at a dog park yesterday morning. Lauren and the PPDT crew are familiar with our little guy because we bring him there for training and also socialization. After learning that our dog was attacked, Lauren called both my partner and me to see if our dog was ok. She messaged us on Facebook to try to reach us as well. When she got in touch, she offered assistance and advice. Lauren has an AMAZING heart and a clear care for animals. It's real and unmistakeable. I cannot recommend her enough. Having someone to look out for you and that has your back, and your animal's back, is priceless. I'm really blown away, not only at her abilities in her profession, but as a leader in this community. I see you, Lauren!!! If you are thinking about joining the pack--DO IT. She's the best alpha. read more

I am SO happy we found Lauren and her team when we did. I was in search of a doggy day care coupled with an advanced professional dog trainer as I have extremely high standards/criteria for who I leave my dog with! Lauren has been amazing in educating me to help myself and my dog become more successful in our relationship with each other and my dogs relationship with other people as well as other dogs. I live in Lincoln and am glad to drive to grass valley weekly for my dog knowing he is in such great hands. I can't ever imagine taking him any place else! He gets great exposure to dogs and he is as tired as a Labrador can be after a long day there. Lauren is extremely knowledgeable and has helped me overcome many obstacles with my dog! Thank you sooo much Lauren and team for taking such great care of our Ragnar! read more

I'm not sure where to start!!!! My best friend and I got 2 beautiful Great Pyrenees pups and when we thought they were old enough we enrolled in PPT's positive reinforcement training. This is where you reward the good behavior and pay no mind to the rotten behavior (unless necessary). The bond and respect gained by handler and Dog is absolutely amazing!!! Lauren was always willing to help and a soapy and all questions! We had a HORRIBLE situation and she didn't hesitate to help. Our Otis is absolutely amazing and the tools given to us help him know exactly what we need from him. She is and always will be our go to for help. THANK YOU SO MUCH PPT FOR ALL THAT YOU DO! We appreciate you so very much!!! read more

Woohoo, as good as it gets. Lauren and the team at PAWS'tive Pals are the absolute best around. Last summer we got ourselves a puppy, a 4 month old GSD. We named her Josie, Jo for short. Cute as could be, and pretty responsive to our home training. Well, as the next few months passed, she got a bit more comfortable in her new digs, hormones were doing their thing, and Jo was pushing the boundaries quickly around here. We tried (failed) a few things over time. So we started looking for a trainer (or training facility). So we contacted Lauren to discuss options in late 2020. This was a tough time for everyone, as Covid was going strong, businesses were struggling with shutdowns and/or understanding and implementing safe procedures and protocols. Lauren worked with us to get Jo several initial training sessions, one on one. We also started with Peaceful Integration around this time. We immediately recognized Lauren's love for what she does and her talent as well. Jo started attending the Pal Pack on a regular basis. There she gets to run with "the pack", burning energy and getting some socialization. Sometimes Jo went for a half day, sometimes a full day. She would come home absolutely exhausted. Really good for her. As covid restrictions eased, signed up for Lauren's next Basic Obedience series. Jo worked hard, Lauren gave us great instruction and lots of positive feedback. On the last day of training, everyone goes downtown GV for the "final". Jo passed, yea!!! We really can't say enough about PAWS'itive Pals, Lauren is a fantastic trainer, really in tune with her students, dogs and their people. Thank you Lauren and crew at PAWS'tive Pals, we highly recommend you! read more

We took our 1.5 year old GSD Zeke to Lauren's group and she really educated us on how to be more positive and efficient with our dog. Zeke was hurt badly and abandoned for most his life before we got him and he needed a lot of assistance to get through his fear, anxiety and aggression. He still has a long ways to go, but we atleast feel like we have a direction with Lauren's help! They also took him in for board and training for a few days and really dedicated time to help him over the course of 3 days! Day one he did not socialize at all and was growling at staff. By day 3, he was playing with other dogs and humans. He looked happy!!! We are so thankful for these miracle workers and we will continue to use their service! read more

My older dog has been visiting PAWS'itive Pals for over eight years and just loves Lauren. We started our puppy here when she got old enough and it's the only thing that actually tires her out. As she's been growing, Lauren points out behaviors she's showing and how to encourage good ones and discourage bad ones. read more

THE BEST. Lauren and her team at PPDT helped us raise our male hound since he was a puppy. hounds are notoriously tricky with their strong scent association, prey/food drive, and loyal behavior. We trusted her every step of the way, inclusive of unlimited drop-offs for trainings and socialization with other dogs, commands, and even trying to train him with a fence-less perimeter. I trusted her when she said his testicles needed to be removed due to aggression, and it was the best advice we accepted. (highly recommend Sirius Canine fertility treatment center for egg/sperm storage). he is now 2.5 and an absolute dream dog, loyal loving and very active with the family. thank you to Lauren and then entire PPDT team for your ongoing support read more

We adopted Lotus and shortly there after the world shut down. With Covid restrictions we missed puppy training and socialization. Lotus was impossible to leash walk. Until we met Lauren with Paws'itive Pals! She suggested the " gentle lead" which was a game changer. We now have a dog who leash walks, obeys commands, and humans can enjoy the walk too!! Prior to going on a long RV trip, we enrolled her in the day care program. She went several half days to play with the Pal Pack. I can't praise the program enough!!! It's just what we needed!! read more

I rescued Kira at one year old and thankfully I found Lauren at PAWS'itive Pals. My dog had never been around any other dog before. She was scared and had no confidence. She had a tough first year of her life. Lauren was patient with her and always gave me tips on what I could do at home to help Kira adjust. At first when I would take Kira to daycare she would hide in the back seat. I would have to carry her in because she was so scared. I was almost discouraged to not bring her because it was so hard seeing her so sad. But Lauren told me to keep coming eventually Kira would want to go. And OH MY was she right. Now Kira hangs out the window so excited to go to daycare. I can hardly get her out of the car fast enough to go play with the other dogs. She has picked up great habits from going there. She has learned call back from there. She has learned to play well with other dogs. She has dog friends and a pack there. It brings me great joy to give that to her. All the trainers that work there Lauren, Sydney, Adam. Kira loves them all.I can't thank PAWS'itve Pals enough in helping me shape my German Shepherd to a happy and well behaved dog. She still has a lot to improve upon but I look forward to her continued growth with the help of Lauren and her play time at daycare. read more

PAWS'itive Pals Dog Training - Good girl - Pet Training Near Me - Grass Valley, California

I've been to the Basic Obedience, Daytime socialization, and the more intensive behavioral modification for my rescue, Rosie. I thought for sure we were doomed since we didn't pass the Basic course and Rosie wasn't good at sharing toys, but Lauren was extremely understanding and sure that with time, my dog could be calm and able to play nicely with other dogs. It's taken time, but finally yesterday as we walked through town, we were complimented on how calm and friendly and well-trained Rosie was on a busy Saturday on Mill St. The truth is, Lauren taught me a lot more about how to be a good parent to Rosie than either of us taught Rosie... I'm forever grateful to have a dog who can listen and be happy with lots of people, kids, and other dogs and to know whenever I need help or ha e questions we can always ask Lauren :) read more

If you're looking for a dog trainer with experience and integrity this is your place! If you're looking for a great place for your dog to go be a dog while also learning how to be part of a pack, this is your place. We have trusted Lauren from the minute we met her, to teach us and our husky mix, Luna, how to be social and responsible with other dogs which makes all of our time with our dog more enjoyable. I highly recommend Pawsitive Pals for boarding, training and days when you want your pup to just hang out with the pack read more

My dog has many issues. I got him from the Auburn aspca and as we are so happy to have him in our lives he needed some hard core training. He has been working with Lauren on behavioral management classes. We thought it was going to be more classes to get him to where he is today. I couldn't be happier with the outcome. She said something that really stuck... "It's not just his future but yours as well" Getting Monte trained with Pawsitive Pals is the best thing we have done. read more

I can't say enough good things about Lauren's PAWS'itive Pals facility, her training methods, and her staff. I came to her on a recommendation as I wanted to get my dog Greta off the pinch collar (which had previously been recommended to me), and get a better focus on me and learn some manners. Day one of training was amazing as Lauren already had Greta off the pinch collar and into the soft lead. I knew I had a lot of work ahead of me but getting her into the soft lead collar made all the difference in the world as she was now actually walking at my side and not trying to pull. Lauren's training methods are amazing and so is she. I worked with Greta every day and within a few months she was my superstar! Greta is a very active dog and the weekly training classes and the interacting with other dogs helped tremendously in releasing her energy. She loves her weekly visits to Pal Pack, not only to see her dog buddies but to see Lauren, Sydney, and Brock, as she enjoys shadowing them wherever they go in the yard. My takeaway on this experience is that Lauren is an amazing trainer, understands behavior problems and knows the best course of action to correct it. I learned to be more patient with my dog and to not give up out of frustration, and that the 'darn' pinch collar had been a big hindrance in my earlier efforts to get Greta under control and truly bonding with me. Thank you Lauren, you certainly made a PAWS'itive difference in our lives. read more

Words cannot explain my gratitude and love for Lauren and Paws'itive Pals!!!!! Lauren has a heart of gold, her generosity is boundless. She is incredibly accommodating and thoughtful. Her love for dogs is so obvious, it's contagious. My husband and I have boarded our German Shepherd with her multiple times and will continue to do so. Our dog throughly enjoys his time with his pals, which comforts us to know he's well taken care of. I recommend Lauren's services to all dog owners, in need of doggie daycare and overnight boarding. We're incredibly grateful to have found Lauren. Thank you a million times over!!!!! read more

I signed my 10 month old Labador up for Basic Obedience 1 class. This was my second week of class an we were given homework. Saturday I showed up for class where we sat around in a circle on bench's with our dogs next to us. It's cold out so I wore a coat but this time I forgot to wear my boots and wore penny loafers shoes. I was sitting with my dog Axel tied next to me and asked him to go down and Lauren say's something to me about the way I am asking my dog. I'm doing something wrong and she tells me I'm doing it wrong. Not very nice about it. Few minutes later Lauren is talking in front of the whole class an right in front of everyone tells me in a negative voice "next time you come back to class you wear different shoes". I was so embarrassed! She was picking on me! I got up with my dog and walked out. Lauren did not even say good morning or how are you. Very Negative. read more

We would be lost without Lauren and Pawsitive Pals! My dog Blue has been a regular at daycare since I adopted him, and his time with the pack has helped him build confidence, strengthen his social skills and improve his obedience. Lauren has also helped me time and time again to become a better dog owner and leader for Blue. We are so grateful! read more

We found PAWS'itive Pals when looking for a place to board our dog after our original plan had fallen through. Allie, at the time, was our foster dog. Finding PAWS'itive Pals gave us the opportunity to give Allie some training that would help her find her forever home, so we added training to boarding. THE FACILITY: PAWS'itive Pals is located on an large property just out of town, and right next to a veterinary practice. There are two gates to go through in order to get inside, large sectioned off play areas, a nice gazebo for training, clean sleeping "cabins," shade, and flowers and strawberries growing along the borders of walkways. When I was considering sending Allie, I asked my mom (who lives in Grass Valley) to pop in unannounced to check things out. She found a spotless play area (i.e. no poop anywhere), lots of safety features, and happy dogs. THE TRAINING: Allie learned how to be part of a pack. She learned how to be a dog. Lauren's work with Allie addressed our training desires (stay, come, reactivity to deer/cats, walking on a leash) and gave Allie and us confidence. As a foster dog, we knew nothing about her former life and experiences. Lauren spent time working with Allie in different situations and scenarios and we found that Allie loves dogs. We noticed a difference in Allie immediately on our first walk, post-training. We walked past 5 deer and not even a peep out of her. Before she would be a barking, lunging, drooling spectacle. On our walks, she is not pulling and choking. The leash is lose and she happily follows our commands. She stops at doorways before being invited in or out, and she comes when called (still begrudgingly if she was doing something more fun). FOLLOW-UP SUPPORT: We received a detailed report card with instructions on how to continue the work that Allie and Lauren had done over the 2 week stay. Lauren requires a training session with the owners, where she then trains the people. I had to ask a question once we were home because I wasn't sure how to handle a situation and she got right back to me with help and instructions. OVERALL: Lauren is honest with what she'd like to do with your dog and what she was able to do in the time given. If we lived in Grass Valley, we would be regulars at her classes because she knows what she's doing. She treats the dogs with love and kindness, and I felt very good about leaving the country with Allie in her care. She is a professional through and through. SIDE NOTE: I love Lauren's personality and ability to be up-front and lay it all out there. I enjoyed talking with her and learning from her. read more

Staring off I have a 7 month old German shepherd trying a few other places for dog training, we tried k9 essential they were pure salesmen. We went to PAWS'itive pals we are in our first month of training and we have seen 100% different dog no more nipping following commands all in 2 classes and dog socialization once a week. I would recommend this to anyone in need of training. Lauren is a dog lover to a max and a even better trainer thank you so much for what you have done so far!!!!!! read more

Our baby boy, Ragnar(6 month old black lab) is in his 4th week of obedience training and he has already developed into a completely different dog. As all puppies are, he was rambunctious(but still has LOTS of spunk to him ;)), hyper, had a hard time containing his excitement, and didn't know boundaries with other dogs. I was nervous to take him out in public, to the dog park, etc. I wish I could reiterate this to every new puppy parent, or any age dog Mom/Dad because Lauren has helped us immensely and we are so grateful that we found her. Ragnar is able to meet new dogs calmly and has learned to take control of his anxiety in new and overwhelming situations and we aren't even finished with the classes! She also offers a drop-off like class Monday- Friday, in which I take FULL advantage of. When dropping him off at the socialization class (best puppy playground ever) he is able to play and run for 10 hours straight with all his furry friends! He's made life-long friends and loves Lauren so much. Lauren loves him and all other doggies like their her own. He comes home tired, happy, and excited to see his friends the very next day! Thank you, Lauren and PAWS'itive Pals. read more

We recently boarded our two dogs at Pawsitive Pals for six days. Lauren took amazing care of them and we were able to watch their daily activities because she posts "live" videos of the dogs playing. Because our canine family members were obviously having such a great time, we were able to enjoy ourselves even more. I highly recommend this company for any and all canine-related services. read more

Our dogs love to go to PAWA'itive Pals. We take them for socialization and training. The people here really "get" the dogs and their individually. We are thankful to have this wonderful, safe place for our pets. PAWS'itive Pals welcomes all breeds and sizes of dogs and they all get along and play, swim or chase the ball. I must add the prices are so reasonable - even if they weren't I'd still go there my dogs love it so. read more

Pepper, our 6 year old, female, 80lb. bullmastiff mix, had been suffering from severe anxiety for a few years.  This was due mostly to a lack of socialization, which led to aggression and misbehavior when she was around other dogs as well as people she did not really know, including family members that were not around her a lot. When playing with children that she knew she would get anxiety and often remove herself from them, becoming aggressive if followed. After a few years of trying to help Pepper on our own, without success, we decided to seek professional help. We heard about Lauren at PAWS'itive Pals from our vet at Best Friends Animal Clinic. I decided to stop by one morning to check it out. Lauren was very friendly and invited me to come hangout in the pen with her and the dogs for a bit. I was very impressed at her ability to command 10+ dogs all at the same time. After seeing Lauren in action, and with her confidence that she could help, we decided to enroll Pepper in behavioral management.  The first day did not go well at all. Pepper was so fearful that she would not let anyone near her without showing aggression toward them. Even one on one with treats! She was also refusing to drink any water and due to this I returned after only a few hours to pick her up. It was very discouraging. The second session Lauren had me stay and try to help integrate Pepper. With Lauren's instructions we got Pepper a little calmer but were still unsuccessful. Things were feeling hopeless. It was at this point that we introduced Daisy, Peppers litter-mate and the only other dog she would interact with. Lauren thought that she could use Daisy to show Pepper how to interact with other dogs. It worked so well that it only took 2 or 3 classes and Pepper was in with the other dogs running around and loving every minute of it. Still with the muzzle at that point, but it wasn't long before the muzzle was no longer necessary. We are so proud of how far she has come in such a short time!  Pepper now goes two times a week to the day time socialization class and loves it!  When we are gathering her leash in the morning we ask her "ready to go see your pals?" and she gets so excited she runs to the front door ready to go. Most days when it's hot out Lauren will make a mud puddle for Pepper to play in as it's one of her favorite things to do. She comes back home dirty and exhausted from all the fun.   PAWS'itive Pals has been the best place I have ever found for someone that cares about the wellbeing of their K9 companion. The owner, Lauren, truly knows how to speak to the dogs and has a very close connection to them. I would highly recommended her to anyone that's looking for help in training, socializing, or behavioral management. Join the Pal Pack, you will not be disappointed. read more

My dog Bear loves Paws'itive Pals! We take him there for doggie day care or what we call " play care". He has been going since he was a puppy so he is well socialized and gives healthy corrections. We have done the obedience classes there and I have witnessed miracles with some of the toughest clients. We also used their boarding services when we are out of town. There aren't many people I would trust with my dog as he is truly my furbaby but I trust Lauren and her crew. . 5 paws up for Paws'itive pals. read more

I can't give Lauren and staff enough praise. She really knows her pack. Our dog has such a great time socializing with all the other dogs. She comes home pooped for 2 days. Pawsitive pals is so much better than leaving her home alone when we have errands she can't join us on. Sage is looking forward to many more visits! read more

My wife and I couldn't recommend PAWS'itive Pals any higher. Lauren and her crew have helped train and raise our dog since he was old enough to be socialized. He is two years old now and is a certified service dog and is able to help with my wife's needs. After his training and socialization, he is extremely well behaved in public (and at home) and many of the fears and concerns we had about raising a puppy are now replaced with a great understanding of how to train a dog to be the best companion possible. These are skills that we will have forever and we have Lauren to thank. If you are considering these services, do yourselves a favor and look no further! read more

Lauren & her crew have made their love of animals into quite an experience for your pets. You can't go wrong with the Pawsitive Pal crew!

Five more stars from our pit bull Cotto! He saw all those dogs at first, how scary, but Lauren taught him how to play and have so much fun that he now loves coming to run and hang with the pack!!! He leaves so exhausted and hungry that's it's just dinner and bedtime....and we are happy to just keep bringing him to play with Lauren and the gang of great dogs. read more

We recently used the boarding/training service. Lauren is great! She's very responsive via text and even Facebook messenger. She regularly posts pictures of your dogs so you can check up on them while away. While away our dogs had human interaction and dog socialization, routine training and at the end we got a report card of their progress. They had a huge yard to stay in and play and a great free-ish area for sleeping. Much better than a kennel where they're trapped your whole trip. read more

Lauren and her team are amazing. Our 5 year old shepherd was not socialized Until she went to pawsitI've pals. She is now listening better and playing with the pack. We are so happy .

Lauren is absolutely the best! My parent's new 2 year old dog Baloo was a nightmare when they adopted him. He was equivalent to a 6 month old puppy with no social skills, or life experience. After just one day at socialization class with Lauren he was a changed dog. After completing the obedience class they can take him anywhere, dogs, people, you name it and he behaves so well. If you are looking for a dog trainer she is seriously the best!! Thank you, Lauren and gang! read more

Thanks for making Tubbs a much better dog. read more
