About Pawtastic Pet Solutions – Cyndi Smasal, CPDT-KA

In-home training in San Antonio

Pawtastic Pet Solutions is an in-home dog training service for the San Antonio metro area run by trainer Cyndi, with virtual sessions available wherever owners are. Training happens in the home, office, dog park or anywhere a dog needs real-world practice.

Programs

Puppy training covers good manners at home plus socialization, habituation and handling to prevent problems. Adult dog training addresses jumping, barking and leash pulling and teaches everything from basic manners to the Canine Good Citizen level. Multi-dog training manages tension at home, teaches self-control and waiting turns, and addresses sibling syndrome in littermates. Reactive dog training uses modern, force-free methods to help dogs who bark, lunge or struggle on walks feel safer and calmer.

Formats

In Day Training, Cyndi does the training herself in the owner's home and neighborhood. In Private Lessons & Coaching, she teaches owners to train their dog with a custom plan and support between lessons. The process starts with a free phone assessment, then an in-person consultation. Nutrition and wellness consultations happen by phone or Zoom, and financing is available.
