Sarah McMurdo - Owner/Head trainer at Paws Forward Dog Training

Often the most difficult dogs are the most intelligent dogs.  Quite simply, they are bored, so they make up their own "games" which are often in conflict with their human partners’ desires. Dogs thrive when they have clear boundaries and consistent communication; oftentimes, there is conflict in the canine-human relationship when the communication isn't clear. A lack of clear communication and consistency will lead to a breakdown in the relationship and can quite literally steal the joy of dog ownership. It is our job as dog trainers to help improve this relationship between dogs and their humans.

We formulate individual training plans for each dog and their human. We maximize your dog's potential using fair, scientifically proven methods. We will help to unleash your dog’s hidden potential through balanced training, physical and mental stimulation, and clear boundaries.  We will help turn your unruly dog into a well-behaved canine companion and transform your relationship into the one you have always dreamed of.    

The best time to start training your dog is NOW!  We start puppies as young as eight weeks old. Starting good habits right from the start will prevent common behavior problems from ever developing. The earlier we can start training, the smoother training will go. Puppies can be enrolled in puppy camp as early as 8 weeks old. 

Already have an out of control dog at home?  Any dog at any age can be trained using our proven methods that are both fair to the dog and easy for the owner to understand.     

Thinking about adding a new dog or puppy to your family? Let our experienced trainers help take the stress out of finding the right canine companion for your family.
