At 20 Paws Dog Training, we take pride in helping owners to develop a strong, lasting relationship with their dogs through positive reinforcement education.

Have you ever thought your dog just does SO MUCH sniffing there should be a class for that? Well, there is! Nose Work is a fun game based on professional detection work that is great for burning off energy, building up a dog’s confidence and much more! Nose work is something that builds a great relationship between you and your dog and even a short search can burn off as much energy as a sprint! There are no prerequisites necessary and easy to practice at home. No matter the size, age, ability of the dog they can all benefit from Nose Work! $185 – 6 Weeks of Classes.
Meet Our Trainers

This puppy/beginner class was great! Tricia and her daughter Katelyn are truly wonderful trainers and have set us up for years of success with our sweet pup, Achilles. Thanks so much!

The Bakers at 20 Paws have been absolutely wonderful helping us to train our dog, Hope. With the goal of having our dog trained and eventually certified to become a facility therapy dog, we started with Level 1 virtual classes in May, recently graduated from Level 3 and will be starting Animal Assisted Therapy dog classes in January! We are so excited. They have been careful and sensitive during this COVID 19 pandemic, and we are so grateful to have them assisting us! Trish and Kaitlyn are so patient with our little dog, and help us to trouble shoot any difficulties that we have with training Hope! I could have never taken on this venture without their support and guidance!

Trisha and Katelyn are the best !!! She wouldn’t go any where else ! My dog is a hound and very hard to train , they are so helpful . I would take Alfie my Dog any where else !! Thank Ladies
| We love the easy, step by step approach of training 20 Paws offered. Our Australian Shepperd loves coming to class. In only a few weeks, we really noticed how more obedient he became. |

Classes, positive training techniques, happy sociable dogs. It’s not about punishment, it’s about
consistency of message and reinforcing positive behaviors. Great class taught by great
professionals. |
Tricia really understands dogs, how to train them and how to love them. She was very helpful in giving us tips and tricks to have a well behaved pet.

Excellent class I have done 2 classes already , with my dog beginner with Tricia and Walking Bootcamp with Katelyn. Both are excellent trainers and I wouldn’t go any where else with my dog! thank you ladies.
Pancake has matured and developed so much through interaction with Tricia, Katelyn, Kathy and all the other dogs.
I love the small class size and the amount of attention paid to each dog/human team. Tricia is extremely compassionate and understands dog psychology, and human psychology too! The support is wonderful, and gave me time and space to work with my dog in a positive and productive way.

The class helped Bear improve his focus around distractions like other dogs and strangers, using fewer treats and more advanced tasks. It also prepared him well for the Therapy Evaluation and CGC test.
