Can't recommend PrimePaw enough! The Puppy Play Labs and First Steps have been crucial in socializing, training, and better understanding our pup. We especially love getting to work with Dom who is a natural dog whisperer! All of the staff clearly adore the dogs they work with and create a great environment for everyone to learn!

I just walked by Prime Paw . I met James and Kyla they made my puppy and I feel welcomed and were absolutely wonderful in giving Papa's a free behavioral consultation. They, we're very explanatory and easy to talk with. Along with a comfortable environment. I would recommend all that have dog behavior issues. To check this place out. They get the job done!!!!!

Prime Paw has been an invaluable resource in my dog's journey from anxious puppy to confident adolescent. The socials and group classes are a blast for our pup and a great crash course in parenting for my partner and me. Everyone at Prime Paw is a joy to work with, and we've learned so much from Steve through his Puppy First Steps class. We'll be coming back for more classes as he gets older and can't recommend Prime Paw enough!

I had a great experience with Prime Paw Puppy Day School. Staff/trainers were very friendly and always took extra time to answer questions and speak with me before and after pickup/dropoff. My dog Roxanne really enjoyed making new dog friends and made a lot of progress with her training and would always come home tired and happy after a session. I would definitely recommend the Prime Paw team to anyone who needs help with training or daycare! Thank you!! - Sam and Roxie
