BlackPaw Dog Training

We had a wonderful experience with BlackPaw Dog Training. We have a high energy male vizsla puppy and we were feeling overwhelmed. Bernadette and her team were amazing and gave us the tools we needed to create a happy relationship with him. Our children are able to walk him now and life is more manageable. He is reliable off leash and can sit on place, which is a game changer. Thank you BlackPaw! We highly recommend the board and train program!

Bernadette and the trainers at Black Paw Training are simply amazing. We adopted Ollie from the humane society and the poor guy was broken from having to live the first two years of his life in a crate for 18-20 hours a day. Ollie had no socialization skills, didn’t know how to walk properly on a Leash but most importantly couldn’t be left alone. After two weeks with Bernadette and team they have transformed him, not only does Ollie know how to play and interact with other dogs, he walks amazing on and off leash, sleeps in his crate at night and if we have to leave for a while he goes in his crate with no crying. My favorite part of what Ollie learned at camp is place when we are on a walk, he goes to his place and sits patiently as you get that picturesque moment. Thank You Bernadette and

I had scheduled a three week training session with BlackPaw, and sadly, the week before the training, my 15 month old labradoodle had a severe flare of an autoimmune condition that we thought was behind us. It turns out the condition is serious and may cut our beloved companion's life short, which has been emotionally draining and sad for our family (especially my grandkids). Bernadette reached out to us several times to check on Riley and his prognosis. It is clear the people at BlackPaw love dogs and care about their customers. I hope a miracle occurs and someday our dog can go through training, but I wanted everyone who read these reviews to know how exceptional and rare the communication we received from BlackPaw was (shedding a couple tears as I write this).

BlackPaw is extraordinary. Our sweet Winnie's two weeks with Bernadette and her skillful team transformed her from an anxious pup to a dog who is content and at ease. We are so happy that we made this investment in Winnie and our longterm relationship with her. I wish there were more stars to give -- I can't recommend them highly enough!!

BlackPaw was worth every penny! Our pup is still his goofy, loving and playful self but with far better manners. He's great on leash, doesn't jump anymore, and BlackPaw fast tracked his recall. They are incredibly supportive with follow up too!
