“I sent my dog (half Great Pyrenees, half Australian Cattle Dog) to Pavlov for a 3 week board and train in January 2024 when he was 15 months old. I wanted to work on his recall, his leash skills, his ability to settle in new situations, and his reactivity to strangers. I had tried a few other trainers before, but nothing seemed to stick. Quinn was his trainer and she really worked wonders on him! He’s a very sensitive dog, so I was worried he would lose his personality, but that wasn’t the case. He’s actually more at ease and goofy since I’m not as stressed out about his behavior and he trusts me a lot more. His heel is perfect and he has great recall so I’m able to hike with him off leash! It makes me so happy that he can live his best life outdoors exploring. He used to be very anxious and growl and bark at new people coming into the home, but now that he knows park it (and can hold it for a very long time), it’s easier to bring new people around him. I can take him to breweries and he will just lay there and sometimes even fall asleep now which was unheard of before around so many new people. He will always have those stranger danger tendencies, but they are much easier to handle and mitigate now. The boarding with benefits is a great perk and he gets so excited when I tell him he’s going to Pavlov to stay! Overall very happy with the experience and a year later he is still thriving!” -Lauren A.
