About My Positive Pup

What they offer

My Positive Pup offers one-on-one training by appointment with Ken or Lauren, designed for puppies, adolescents and adults and especially for reactive or fearful dogs. Puppy socials and a dogs-and-kids family education program are also offered.

Approach

Training is all positive: no e-collars, no prong collars, no leash pops and no dominance. Instead of telling a dog no, the trainers show it what to do and build a relationship on trust, kindness and clear communication.

The trainers

Ken MacLeod is a Karen Pryor Academy Certified Training Partner and a certified Family Dog Mediator. Lauren is a Certified Canine Training and Behavior Specialist through CATCH Canine Trainers Academy and a Family Paws certified educator.
