About Four Paws & You Dog Training LLC

What they offer

Four Paws and You Dog Training offers holistic, rewards-based dog behavior consulting and coaching, in person in the Puget Sound area and virtually by video call. Its Growl to Grow program helps owners of reactive dogs learn to enjoy life with their dogs, and the trainer also works with aggression, separation anxiety and fear-based responses. A free discovery call is the first step, and a membership group connects like-minded owners.

How they train

The trainer takes a force-free, reward-based Do No Harm approach that uses gentle, modern science to modify behavior.
