Best Paw Forward - Dog Training Service - Chalfont, PA
Best Paw Forward is owned and operated by husband and wife team, Michael and Jamie Badial. Since 2012, we've been offering positive in home board and train services and private lesson programs throughout the Bucks and Montgomery county areas.
Our commitment is to providing our local community the best support and information to make living together with a dog easy and fun. Our dog training programs focus on practical solutions that are easy for even the busiest family to implement without feeling like it is a second job.
All of our programs include our lifetime support classes, private community for support and guidance and a family that is always here for you and your dog.
Michael, a Sgt in the PA Army National Guard, is the Director of Training and the Head Trainer with over 13 years of experience in behavior and dog training. Starting his career in CA, he tamed dogs along his meter reader route until he moved to PA to manage a 200+ run dog kennel where he started his first dog training business and a rescue that specialized in retraining and safely rehoming dogs with behavior issues.
Jamie started her journey training dogs in 2010 when she adopted her first German Shepherd puppy and quickly caught the training bug. She used her skills to volunteer for a local rescue and fostered and rehomed dozens of dogs. This is how Jamie and Michael met and teamed up to form Best Paw Forward.
