About Love For Paws

Current status

The site carries a notice at the top of its home page stating the practice is currently on hiatus and not accepting new clients. Anyone considering this trainer should check directly before planning around them.

Why in-home

Love For Paws gives a clear reason for training in the home: that is where most problem behaviors occur. Training takes place in the client's own house across the Richmond area, and video-conference sessions are offered for clients outside the travel area or where the dog's needs make remote work more appropriate.

Method

The practice uses reward-based methods, on the stated grounds that they are humane, effective, and create lasting change in a dog's behavior. It also states that it prioritizes continuing education so it can bring clients the best of what the training field has to offer, and describes itself as driven by compassion and a genuine love of animals.

Who trains

The trainers are Jennifer Damon and Aaron Friscia, who work together with clients.

Service area

The site names North Chesterfield, Chester, Midlothian, Glen Allen, Short Pump and Henrico among the places it covers.

Practical details

The business is described as licensed and insured, and offers a free 15-minute phone consultation to decide whether it is the right fit before any session is booked.
