Karen is really knowledgeable about dogs, and their training. I know my Yorkie will be trained perfectly. Recommend her to everyone.

What would it be like to have a dog that was behaved so well, that they are invited to visit again? How would you like your dog to focus on you rather than everything else? Best Paw Forward is the answer. You get the benefit of PJ’s 30+ years of training experience with classes small enough to get help on all the little things! Best Paw provides many options to exercise your dog physically and mentally.My Aussie was fearful and reactive, pulling me off my feet, lunging and barking at other dogs. She has transformed to a wonderful dog, welcomed everywhere she goes. I am so thankful for the insightful training we have received. I only wish I had known about Best Paw earlier.

Very positive trainer with individualized examples given during group classes on how to handle your dogs training challenges! They have both agility and rally fields set up that you learn to use during training. Great experience with first Corgi so took our next one there too.

Wouldn’t recommend. You can’t explain what your concerns are, she talks over you and cuts you off. I saw that she can’t handle more than one dog to train. No one in my family was too happy with how she trained.

My Australian Shepherd is enrolled in Basic Manners. PJ is an excellent instructor...very patient, kind, and offers such great support both in and out of class. The training facility is excellent and totally worth the drive from New Smyrna Beach. I love that she teaches an optional introduction to agility segment as part of the Basic Manners class. Looking forward to a long-term learning experience with PJ!! Highly recommend!

I have known PJ Lacette for over 20 years and highly respect her as a training instructor. She emphasizes positive reinforcement when training dogs and their owners. She has classes in all kinds of activities to interact and build your bond with your dog. Highly recommend

George is a great trainer. He helped my dog who was resource guarding and had aggressive tendencies toward my other dogs. I truly thank George for his services!

I mainly went to BPF because I wanted to have a well socialized dog (they have regular puppy play sessions) but I didn't realize how valuable the classes would be too. My dog is so much happier and a lot less anxious. Meanwhile I feel a lot more confident as a dog owner and our home is a lot more peaceful. It was amazing how much I just didn't know about raising and training a puppy / dog. I'm so glad we started early (about 12 weeks) because a lot of her (our) bad habits were easy to break and being so young she loves training - it's just a fun game to her. It's fun for me too

Has made a huge difference already! I have just started puppy classes and the difference is amazing. Just the orientation class was incredibly valuable. I had to admit to myself that I was doing so many things wrong with my puppy and trying to fix everything with Google and YouTube but it wasn't working. Just one session with PJ and my puppy was much happier, much less aggressive, more relaxed and free of anxiety. I was amazed and relieved! I can't wait to see how she is when we've finished all 10 classes.I highly recommend Best Paw, especially for young puppies (start as early as possible). It's so nice to know I now have someone supporting me and my family to be the best dog owners we can be and to have a happy, healthy, well behaved dog. Thank you PJ

Best dog training hands down. PJ has more experience than other trainers. We are thrilled with the results. Great chance for your dog to learn proper behavior and socialize with other dogs as well.

I am currently training my second dog with Best Paw. LPJ is amazingly knowledgeable and she is patient and gentle with dogs and their owners. The Springer I trained with her gave us 14 years of joy. The poodle/border collie we are training now has been more difficult. But, PJ has been with us all the way. She has been so patient with us. And, the results are beginning to show. Thank you PJ. I have had a well behaved dog in my home most of my life. It means so much to me. Your patience with our current difficulties has been really precious.
