Welcome to Trusted Paws Academy
Empowering Dogs, Enriching Lives
At Trusted Paws Academy, we believe that training should be a joyful experience—for both dogs and their humans. That’s why we use positive reinforcement techniques rooted in compassion and science. Our approach is all about building trust, boosting confidence, and turning every training session into a celebration of progress. From playful puppy lessons to advanced obedience, we make learning fun, respectful, and deeply rewarding
Why We Started?
With 97% of pet owners considering their dogs part of the family, we knew our mission had to go beyond basic commands. Trusted Paws Academy was created to honor that bond—with training that’s filled with love, laughter, and lots of tail wags. We set out to make life better not just for dogs, but for the families who adore them. Because to us, training with kindness isn’t just a method—it’s a movement.
