Paw In Hand

Our dog training classes and private training programs are designed for real-life results. And our positive training methods mean you can feel good about getting them. Whether you’re after basic manners or relief from a serious behavioural issue, we can help.

Too busy to walk the dog or just have a dog who needs extra time outdoors? Send him out for group hikes under the watchful eye of a certified dog trainer. The best part? Coming home to a calm, well-behaved, well-exercised dog.

Helping people be partners with their dogs in life, outdoor recreation and canine education!

We offer professional services including Training and Behaviour Consultations ( individual and group), Doggie Field Trips (dog walking), and specialty programs for new and expecting families to help humans and dogs have a successful life together.

Paw in Hand Pet Services is committed to the overall well being of your canine friend, physical, mental, emotional and... they are teaching us things too. This is apparent in everything we do - from our name to our commitment to training methods that promote a caring relationship between dogs and people. Your dog and you in partnership.

We are committed to a professional code of ethics and dog friendly training methods that use positive methods that promote a caring relationship between dogs and people. We oppose training methods that induce fear, cause pain or physical discomfort.
