Bessey's Positive Paws - Behavior and Private K9 Training - Whitefield, ME

Member since Apr 2022

I help families with puppies (or dogs) regain peace in their homes by helping you set up your home to make it easier to manage your pup, showing you how to care for your puppy’s health & behavioral needs, & getting the whole family engaged in training your dog so that you can feel immediate relief from frustrations and have confidence that your pup will grow up into a well-mannered family dog.

Learn the proven systems and techniques that can dramatically improve your dog’s behavior, bring joy back into your relationship, and eliminate embarrassing outbursts. Your success is the top priority.

Please contact and book me on Petworks. Thank you.
