Lorena Padron

Lorena Padron started her journey in dog training 11 years ago when she adopted her Border Collie, Bela, in Brazil. After moving to Houston and becoming involved in the Houston Rescue Community through photography with her husband, she adopted several dogs from rescues and shelters. With a diverse group of dogs in size, temperament, and breeds, she prioritized learning how to train them and provide them with fulfilling lives at home. She then started participating in various dog sports like Agility, Flyball, Rally, Obedience, and Scent Work. Lorena began shadowing local trainers in Houston and was given the opportunity to start teaching classes in 2018. In September 2020, she founded Paws All In Dog Training.

Customer Reviews

Joe Gallegos: Lorena was so good with our dog! Our dog is a high-energy, people-loving Goldendoodle and we needed help getting that under control so guests could come to our house. In just 4 weeks, Lorena helped us communicate effectively with our dog and gave us the tools we need for him to be successful. She's very loving and patient and our boy responded very well to her. I would highly recommend Lorena!
Kathleen Mac Neil: We benefited tremendously from four private sessions with Lorena. Especially appreciated her help in understanding realistic expectations with a puppy, and always using positive responses. We found the exercises easy to continue between sessions, and we have more confidence in our ability to train him. And of course, he loved her. Thanks Lorena!
Michelle Rutherford: We love Lorena and would highly recommend Paws All in Dog Training! Lorena is such a positive support for the pets and their owners. She has such a caring disposition and truly loves what she does. We look forward to taking more classes with Lorena and helping our dog continue to learn and grow!

We've got the answers for your questions

Who are the dog trainers listed on this page?

We have created a directory of licensed dog trainers specializing in positive reinforcement methods. These trainers are not affiliated with Dogo, and all information is gathered from publicly available sources. Each profile provides a brief overview of the trainer's experience and expertise.

How can I select the right trainer for my dog?

Start by evaluating your dog's needs and identifying your training objectives. Each trainer's profile provides insights into their areas of expertise. Match these with your dog's character and your goals to find the ideal fit.

How do I ensure these trainers are competent?

All trainers listed here are certified professionals with extensive knowledge of positive reinforcement techniques.

Why is positive reinforcement emphasized, and what is it?

Positive reinforcement centers on rewarding preferred behaviors, ensuring a pleasant learning journey for your dog. This humane approach is scientifically proven to be the most effective long-term training method, strengthening the bond between you and your pet. By consistently rewarding good behavior, your dog learns to associate actions with positive outcomes, leading to lasting improvements and a happier companion.

Are these trainers equipped to address specific behavioral problems?

Yes, they are. Our trainers are adept in basic obedience or intricate behavioral challenges. Browse their profiles to identify a trainer who specializes in the particular issues you wish to address.

How do I initiate a training program with a trainer?

Simply click on the preferred trainer's profile to access their contact details. From there, you can get in touch to discuss your requirements and set up training appointments.

How do group sessions differ from private ones?

Group sessions offer a communal setting where your dog learns general obedience alongside other dogs. In contrast, private sessions grant focused attention, making them perfect for targeted behavior modifications or individualized training agendas.

Which training techniques do these trainers abstain from?

All our trainers are committed to positive reinforcement techniques and steer clear of any harsh or punitive methods. Their primary goal is to make training a joyous journey for you and your dog.

When can I expect to see results using positive reinforcement training?

Results depend on factors like your dog's nature, the specific behaviors in question, and your training consistency. While many clients observe improvements in just a few sessions, it's crucial to be patient and persistent.

Can I attend a training session to observe before committing?

Reach out to the trainer you're interested in to discuss possibly attending a session. It's a great way to get a feel for their approach and see if it aligns with your expectations.
