About Henry’s Helping Paw Dog Training, LLC

Henry's Helping Paw is a mobile in-home school whose slogan tells you where the work is actually aimed: training humans one dog at a time.

How it works

Melissa Staniszewski brings the session to the client's living room. Her argument for the format is that there are no kennels and no added stress, and that results land where the dog actually lives. She is based at 115 Nash Street in Buffalo and lists Buffalo, West Seneca and the surrounding areas as her service area. She offers to call back the same day.

Three program strands

Puppy and Foundations covers house training, crate training, leash manners and recall. Obedience and Manners is open to dogs of all ages and covers polite greetings, loose-leash walking and calm behavior. Behavior Solutions handles jumping, barking, anxiety and reactivity, described as gentle and science-based. Rescue discounts are advertised.

Credentials and recognition

She lists herself as an Animal Behavior College Certified Dog Trainer since 2015. The site displays a 4.6 rating from 27 Google reviews and a Nextdoor Neighborhood Favorite badge for 2021 through 2024, and publishes named client quotes.

The line she trains by

Two quotes sit on the page and both point the same way: to speak dog is to not speak at all, and when you understand your dog, everything changes.
