Dog Training at Villa La PAWS

The Villa La PAWS Canine Academy has developed gentle methods for raising and training your dog to be all they can be!puppypulling

It's darned near impossible to stop bad behaviors if you don't know why your dog is doing them. The goal of the training professionals at Villa Law PAWS is to teach handlers how to communicate with their dog... to learn why he or she does what it does.

Your "best friend" is looking for someone to show him what you want... what's okay and what's NOT okay. Without direction, he or she will likely create their own boundaries (a/k/a bad habits), for example counter surfing, chasing cars or bicycles, chewing your possessions, guarding its' territory, etc. Training is a fun way to avoid ALL of these undesirable behaviors, and is a great way to spend quality time with the one who provides you with unconditional love.

Our current curriculum includes:

  • Puppy Training
  • Behavioral/Obedience Training
  • Recall Training
  • Service Dog Training
  • Therapy Dog Training
  • Competition, Agility, Fly-Ball, Frisbee
  • NEW 7/10: Canine Good Citizen Testing
  • NEW 7/10: Sniff Works

So whether you want to develop the perfect family pet and neighborhood role-mode, provide quality of life tasks for the disabled as a service dog, visit children's centers, hospitals and hospice facilities as a pet assisted therapy team, or evolve your 4-legged athlete with competitive agility, fly-ball and frisbee abilities... PAWS Canine Academy can make it happen! All you need is the desire... and the dog!
