Padfoot Pets Dog Training and Support - Arvada, Colorado

I've been a client of Padfoot Pets since 2019, and I can't recommend Kat, Amanda and Annika enough! My dog, a Great Pyrenees, has a strong instinct to protect, which made walks and encounters with other dogs challenging. Thanks to their Real World Training sessions, he's become so much more relaxed and confident.

Their training has truly made a difference—not only is he happier, but we can also walk him during the day without worrying about him lunging at every dog in sight. The team at Padfoot Pets understands both dogs and their owners, and their approach has been incredibly effective and supportive. I’m so grateful for their help and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality, personalized training!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Tyler Parsons for pet training services, and I couldn't be happier with the results! Tyler is an exceptional dog trainer who truly understands animal behavior and positive reinforcement techniques. Our dog, Shadow, has shown remarkable improvement in obedience, socialization, and overall behavior.

From the very first session, Tyler's professionalism and expertise were evident. He took the time to understand Shadow’s specific needs and tailored the training program accordingly. The personalized approach made a huge difference in Shadow’s progress.

Tyler's patience and dedication are unmatched. He consistently provided clear instructions and useful tips for reinforcing the training at home. The training sessions were not only effective but also enjoyable for both Shadow and us.

If you're looking for top-notch pet training services, I highly recommend Padfoot Pets. Their passion for animals and commitment to excellence make them the best dog training service we've ever worked with. Thank you, Tyler, for transforming Shadow into a well-behaved and happy dog!

Padfoot has provided incredible support for my reactive pup, Gus! They have been the perfect next step after we began addressing his behavior challenges with positive reinforcement training, and started to get a decent handle on things. Our trainer, Perry, is the best, and Gus adores him. Perry has even been taking Gus on outings to Home Depot and to pet stores, something I never thought my pup would be able to do. I'm so proud! Highly recommend Padfoot! And positive reinforcement training in general... Gus continues to improve year after year!

My experience with Padfoot has been exceptional thanks to Perry, Kat, and Tyler! We've trusted them with our high-energy German Shorthaired Pointers for years, and they have never disappointed. They excel at tailoring training to fit our dogs' unique personalities and our specific needs and preferences. Their ability to explain concepts clearly and their willingness to patiently answer all our questions have been invaluable.

We've been doing weekly real-world training sessions with Perry for our younger pup to improve his calmness and focus amidst distractions, and we've seen remarkable progress. Taking the group training class, Real World Basics, was a true game changer for us. It provided a fantastic opportunity to train our pup in real-life scenarios while receiving immediate feedback on our techniques. This class not only boosted our confidence but also strengthened our bond with our dogs.The homework assignments given after each session were practical and effective, allowing us to build on what we learned week by week.

Overall, Padfoot has been instrumental in helping us nurture well-behaved and happy dogs. We couldn't be more grateful for their expertise and dedication to pet training! We recommend them to everyone and cannot say enough good things about the company and the individuals who work there!

Tyler and Kat are dedicated to making our furry friends live their lives to the fullest. They are great at explaining their processes and provide the best care possible for each individual pup. They are constantly looking for better and more creative options to maximize results. Minnie and I don't know what we would have done without them!

Kat and Amanda have been wonderful to work with! I have a reactive but (mostly) sweet dog and the training and expertise provided by this team is second to none. Would highly recommend this company for any of your dog training needs! And my difficult dog loves Kat and Amanda!!! Harmon's behaviors and ability to navigate the world have significantly improved with their training!

I adopted two nine year old brothers who were in a puppy mill and I was way over my head and desperate. Thankfully I found Padfoot Pets and their scientific, positive reinforcement method right in my backyard. I don’t feel overwhelmed anymore. The pups are showing significant progress every single day. I absolutely love the two trainers who I have worked with, Amanda and Tyler, and I cannot express enough how grateful I am. I don’t feel alone anymore and only feel hopeful! I think my pups feel the same, :0)

Tyler is empathetic and knowledgeable about reactive dogs. He understands the challenges of living with a reactive dog. It was amazing to see him win my dog's trust over the course of just a few sessions. He shares his knowledge in easy to understand lessons. He trains you, the owner, to think about your dog's triggers from day to day. If they are extra reactive today, what happened yesterday or even the day before? Most reactivity is out of fear or anxiety. It is important to have empathy for your furry friend.
