About Mary’s Hand That Feeds School For Dogs

Classes for Every Stage

Mary's Hand That Feeds School For Dogs, run by Mary in Shavertown, PA, offers a range of training classes aimed at dogs across all ages. Programs include AKC STAR Puppy classes (a six-week program), basic obedience, and manners classes, along with guidance on common puppy issues such as housebreaking and loose-leash walking. The school describes its training methods as humane and effective.

Beyond the Basics

In addition to foundational obedience, the school offers trick dog training and fun-and-games activities, reflecting an emphasis on providing activity and enrichment for a dog's entire life. The AKC STAR Puppy program indicates the school is set up to certify puppies through that recognized AKC curriculum. Located at 360 Chase Road in Shavertown, the school maintains regular weekday and weekend hours, making it accessible for owners with varying schedules. The site does not specify the trainer's full name or list additional certifications beyond the AKC STAR Puppy program, and it does not detail private versus group formats online, so prospective clients may want to confirm class structure when enrolling. For owners in the Shavertown and Wilkes-Barre area looking for structured puppy and obedience classes plus lighter enrichment activities like tricks and games, this school covers both ends of that spectrum.
