Raleigh, NC
Hoof and Paws Pet Care, LLC offers behavior consultations in the client's home, private sessions, and group classes to help the owner establish a leadership role with their canine family member. The trainer uses proven, consistent methods and positive reward techniques. Only flat collars and leashes are allowed; no harsh prong collars or electric shock collars are used.
The goal is to teach the owner how to establish consistent, repeatable communication with their dog, resulting in a well-behaved dog for a lifetime with the family. Services are offered in Downtown Raleigh, North Raleigh, and Wake Forest within a 25-mile radius. Classes are taught at City Parks, a private horse farm, and on a rotational schedule to public venues for the practice of canine good citizenship skills.
Family pet ownership in the canine world involves fun and games, which should also include learning, obedience, and training. Puppies need schooling in play activities, mature dogs appreciate modeling good citizenship skills and interaction with other furry companions, and canine seniors value mental and physical exercises to help with age-related challenges.
One of the most popular services offered is ENRICHMENT OUTINGS, providing an invaluable investment for a furry family member at any of these life stages. When the dog returns home, the owner knows that the outing was educational, while the dog thinks it was just for fun and games.
