Success Stories from Happy Paws

What Our Clients Are "Barking" About

Vanessa T. & Rocky (Doberman)

"Rocky was a complete nightmare before TrainingPaws—barking non-stop at home, lunging at dogs in the park, and completely out of control on walks. We were overwhelmed and honestly scared to take him anywhere.
Jose took him for a one-month board and train, and when Rocky came home, it was like a different dog walked through the door. He’s calm, obedient, and completely focused. He walks off-leash in stores, barely barks at home anymore, and completely ignores other dogs.
But most of all, he just looks happier and calmer—like he’s finally in a better headspace. It’s not just about obedience; Jose is like a therapist for dogs. He truly understands them on a deeper level, and it shows in the results.
We finally have peace at home, and Rocky finally has peace in his mind. I can’t thank Jose and TrainingPaws enough."*

Carlos M. & Luna (Rescue Mix)

"Luna had major anxiety after coming from a shelter. Jose at TrainingPaws worked with her slowly, building trust step by step. Now she’s confident, sociable, and finally enjoying life. I can’t thank him enough. Seeing Luna, walking perfectly next to me off-leash, calm and peaceful always makes my day. I will definitely keep sending Luna to him when I go out of town, or even if I adopt another dog. I have worked with other trainers before and Jose is THE ONE."

Tom L. & Daisy (Beagle Puppy)

"Jose made puppy training feel easy and fun. From crate training to potty habits, TrainingPaws gave us the tools we needed. Daisy even learned a few tricks! We’re so grateful for the foundation he helped us build!! If you do not bring your dog to Jose, you are doing your dog a true disservice!!"

Ellie C. & Milo (French Bulldog)

"Milo had zero impulse control, but after just a few sessions with Jose, he’s like a new dog. Calm, focused, and even polite around guests! TrainingPaws is worth every minute and every dollar."

Rachel D. & Cooper (Labradoodle)

"Cooper was super sweet but totally out of control—especially around other dogs. Jose took the time to not only train Cooper but also educate me on how to handle those situations. TrainingPaws didn’t just train my dog, it empowered me as an owner."

Marcus & Talia H. with Bella (Miniature Poodle)

"We signed up for private lessons at TrainingPaws, and they were fantastic. Jose kept the sessions fun and engaging while still being super structured. Bella looked forward to every class and so did we. We’ve seen a huge improvement in her behavior! Now thinking about board-train!"

Elizabeth & Mochi (Golden Doodle)

"Jose completely transformed our walks with Mochi. Before TrainingPaws, he pulled on the leash so much that walks were stressful. After just a few sessions, Mochi is calm, responsive, and actually listens to commands. Jose genuinely cares about both the dogs and their owners. Highly recommend!"

Alexandra & Louis (German Shepard)

"Before training, walking Louis felt like a workout I didn’t sign up for, he pulled me everywhere. Jose taught us leash manners in a way that finally clicked. The cool part is Louis actually seems happier because he understands what I’m asking. TrainingPaws made our day-to-day life so much smoother."

Mario & Coco (Labrador)

"Jose took such great care of Coco during VIP boarding. He even brought her to the beach and to Starbucks for a pup cup! We got pictures every day, and it was clear she was having the best time. When we picked her up, she was happy and relaxed. We’ll definitely use TrainingPaws again."
