Paw It Forward Dog Training

Thank you for visiting.  My name is Jeannie Oakley. I am a Honors Graduate of
Animal Behavior College and I am a Certified Dog Trainer and Mentor Trainer.  I
understand dogs, their language and the importance of teaching owners the
difference between "human" language and "dog" language.  I teach using positive
reinforcement that rewards your dog for choosing the right behavior.  T
here is a
big difference between discipline and punishment.
I offer in home private lessons
where I work one on one with owners to help them solve problem behaviors they
are facing with their dogs.  I offer a new Basic Obedience class format where
your dog progresses by levels.  Classes are ongoing! I also have
weekly Play
Groups
to give your dog some fun off leash playtime.   I make training more than
just learning cues and commands. I teach owners the three basic needs to have a
happy balanced dog. How to understand "dog talk",  how to lead your dog, and
how to implement proper exercise and socialization.  Paw It Forward offers the
ONLY "Level" class formats in the area!

My beautiful girl AlphaRue.
AlphaRue is 2 yrs old. Her is
known as "the hoarder". She is
the keeper of all toys.  Looking
for something? It's probably in
her crate. She is the "HOWLER"
who sounds like a genuine wolf.
My beautiful girl Sheena.
Sheena is 3 yrs. old and her
favorite toy is the lazer light..
AKA:  "My Bug". If you spell the
word B-U-G, she understands!
She will nibble on your behind
when she wants something, yes
it's true.
My beautiful girl MiyaRae. MiyaRae is
1 yr. old. She is known as "the baby".    
 She is the "Instigator".  Thinking
about leaving without her? She knows
the tricks. The keys, coat, sneaking
out the back door. Forget it! Just
take her bye bye.
