Loki

With Nea’s help, I was able to understand my beagle, Loki, better. What she helped me realize the most is that I anthropomorphize him. He isn’t human, and I can’t treat him like one. Once I changed my view of his behavior, I became much more patient and happy with him. Nea showed me that training is never really finished. It’s daily work, but she showed us the only way to do it is to play. Loki is such a great dog, and I actually feel like a good parent because we’re both happier. All because Nea taught me how to make sense of a beagle.

Double Troubles!

Nea has looked after our two rescue dogs at a day care for over 2 years. Every interaction we have had with her, she has shown great intuition and insight about canines and our dogs in particular. Nea has even shown our family some obedience tricks to help build the confidence of our beagle that has had a traumatic, previous existence. Thanks to Nea’s help our beagle has really come out of her shell.

I absolutely love everything that Nea has helped me achieve with my dog. From dealing with basic commands to more specific behavioral issues, she has helped my dog and I to grow as a team and for him to be the best boy he can be. I have been able to take him to work with me at multiple jobs, and can trust him in many situations. More importantly, she has helped me become someone my dog can trust in different situations -- she's not afraid to tell me what what's best for him I can do to improve my relationship with him. Even though he's fully trained, I still come to her with help if I need to. I will absolutely use her for all of my future dogs!! -Alissa R

Tucker & Toby

Nea is a dream to work with. She is personable, professional and incredibly helpful. We first took a group class from Nea and loved how she treated us and our dog with such respect, kindness and patience. We then sought out her help when introducing a second dog into our family for private lessons. In every scenario Nea goes above and beyond. She was able to teach us so much about our dogs! We would definitely recommend the Pawsitive Pooch!

Nea made the Drink with your Dog, brewery manners class at K2 so fun! Our new mutt learned lots of practical skills, and we all learned how to be better brewery patrons. I definitely recommend it
