Knowledgeable, Expertise, and Affordable. I can not say enough about Pups and Paws dog training. Vanessa answered my questions and put me and my rescue dog at ease. I saw immediate tips that I can use and am eager to see the progress in our future sessions. I will definitely refer Pups and Paws dog training to other people seeking dog training in Lawrenceville and Suwanee, GA.

Vanessa was great, from her phone call to introduce herself, discuss what my goals for training are, setting the appointment and arriving early (calling to see if earlier is convenient for me, I said “Great!” My dog listened to her and she was very knowledgeable and patient. We will continue training with her for sure!!!

Let me start off by saying if I could give Vanessa 6 stars I would! She successfully helped my 6-month-old Golden Doodle with behaviors such as loose leash walking, greeting people at the door, and avoiding jumping on guests. Prior to training, my puppy struggled with containing his emotions, often resulting in excited urination and difficulty walking without pulling or being highly distracted. Through Vanessa's patient and customized approach, my pup made significant progress in a short time. With her guidance, my dog now walks calmly beside me and greets guests politely. She also gave me lots of tips and tricks to keep up with training and working on other behaviors once training ended. Lastly, I didn't feel overwhelmed with all of the information she gave us, she made things very digestible and easy to understand. I highly recommend Vanessa; she's knowledgable, responsive, and has a very effective training style to address multiple behavioral challenges.

Details: 0 - 6 months old • Small (16 - 25 lbs) • Private lessons • Puppy training • Leash pulling • Biting • My home, venue, etc.
