Pawsitive Connection Dog Training

I have 2 huskies and love Pawsative Connection. Stephanie the owner is always coming up with engaging activities and the rest of the team is wonderful. The team works with them on art projects, field trips, pack hikes and birch box. It's not just a bunch of dogs running around crazy.

We have taken three of our dogs for training at Pawsitive Connection and we recommend it to everyone we know with a dog. Stephanie goes above and beyond to make sure the dogs are being stimulated and well trained in fun ways. But more importantly she teaches the owner/handler how to positively and effectively communicate with your dog. She is genuinely interested in seeing you and your dog succeed and live your best lives together. Between classes, daycare, and extra activities, Stephanie has created the most thoughtfully unique and caring environment for our pups and for us.

Pawsitive Connection is absolutely the best place to take your dog(s)!!! Our Bear has been going for three years and he has a blast and sleeps all the way home. Classes, day care, water options in the heated pool, pack walks, they have a 2 acre fenced in Sniff Spot at her property they can go to (including transportation to/from there and day care in The Waggin Wagon! It even has seat belts for the pups!) Always some new activity happening here. Pups will NEVER EVER be bored. Employees are top notch and take great care of our babies. Give them a call and go in for a look see. You won't be disappointed!

We absolutely love Pawsitive Connection. Stephanie Niles and her staff are amazing! Over a year ago, we completed a group session with our 2 rambunctious adolescents. Ever since they continue to learn and thrive at her daycare! Stephanie also has podcasts packed with helpful information. Her rescue work and positive attitude set her far above the rest. The facility is packed with learning fun for the dogs and as a bonus... they get to go on field trips to Her AMAZING Sniffspot!!! (It is so cool) Our dogs joyfully participate in this experience. We highly recommend Pawsitive Connection. We've tried several others and were left unsettled. We feel safe and happy leaving our furbabies. Our dogs get VERY excited when we mention the word daycare. You must plan a visit. The facility is clean, warm, and peaceful. No chaos, just calm canine community fun.♥️

Stephanie has created this whole Pawsitive Connection community and it’s amazing to see. I’ve never seen anything like it. Everyone knows each other and is so kind and cheers each other on when their dog finally masters something. Not many trainers could get their students to return class after class and keep continuing even after you have taken all the classes. The skills you learn make taking your dog out in the real world so much more enjoyable. Stephanie makes it so fun to work with our dogs and want to keep going. I’ve noticed some of these students have been coming to class for years and the relationship they build with their dogs is amazing. I have been in multiple classes over the past year with two of my dogs and I can see myself continuing on for years to come. I have developed a deep connection with my dogs because of the skills we learn through Pawsitive Connection. I have also gained some wonderful friendships through her classes. I can go on and on about her dayCARE and hydrotherapy too. Pawsitive Connection is hands down the very best in the PNW for all things dog!
