We recently enrolled our Shepard mix puppy into a board and train program for fear based aggression with Paw2paw, and after just a couple of weeks we are incredibly impressed with the results. The trainers expertise in handling aggressive behaviors, particularly fear based aggression was evident from the first meeting.
The board and train program was intensive, offering a combination of structure, consistency, and positive reinforcement. Our dog stayed with the trainer, who provided daily sessions focused on desensitizing triggers and promoting more calm, controlled responses. This hands-on approach was key in breaking the cycle of fear and aggression. We brought our puppy home today and successfully walked through Ross Dress For Less and Home Depot with no issues. No fear and no aggression. We could not be happier with this transformation.

I’ve used Paw2Paw for training my trio of pups as well as boarding. I absolutely love them. Lauren is so good with my pack. I had a very unruly pack before they were sent to paw2paw. Now when they go just for boarding their training is kept up with and we don’t regress while I’m away. I fully trust them with my wonderful pack and now my service dog too! I also love the silly update pictures of my pups having fun everyday! Couldn’t recommend Paw2Paw more!

Pare 2 Paw is an amazing service to dogs and their owners! Lauren is extremely knowledgeable on all dog breeds, character, and is ecstatic train and to help the bond between the dog and the owners is absolutely amazing. She has known my dog Pandora since she was a puppy and helped train her as well! I highly recommend Paw 2 Paw to you and your fur babies!🤩

We have a very tricky dog and Lauren is the only person we trust to care for her when we go out of town. We know she isn’t getting away with bad behaviors and she always gets such fantastic exercise. She truly loves her!

My German Shepherd Cinder and I moved to Bend, and I found Paw2Paw. They have completely changed our life - for the better! I put Cinder through their Board & Train program, and she did amazing with them. Between my busy schedule and the training Cinder needed, I couldn’t ask for anything better. I can confidently say your dog will be loved, get incredible training, and have the time of their life with them! Thank you Paw2Paw!

The reviews here are legit, we used Paw2Paw for a board and train due to some serious behavioral issues that we could not work out on our own. We tried to avoid them ever happening, working with other two other trainers when he was a puppy, but once adolescence kicked in, everything changed.
We met with Lauren and were immediately impressed with how she evaluated him and picked up on every detail of his behavior.
Lauren gave us an incredible amount of her time and energy, as well as tons of follow-ups to make the transition back home as smooth as possible, even with the expected regressions (she knows exactly when they will happen).
Her knowledge and intuition with both dogs and people, is rare. She quickly picked up on what our guy needed to be fulfilled, what we needed to do differently, and how we could work that into our day to day lives, to help build his confidence and therefore better behavior.
If you're reading this because you have a tough dog, you know how hard it makes life, but I can tell you with certainty that Lauren is who you want - you will have to put work in, it's not a magic fix (nor should it be), but she will get you there, and it is immensely rewarding to watch your dog transform, gain confidence, and grow into a much happier companion.

Lauren's passion for dog training is unmatched. As a reactive dog mom the best thing I've done for my pup is invest my time and resources into Paw 2 Paw. The board and train was an amazing experience for Aurora to learn valuable skills and socialization when the world was shut down. Now, 3 years later, I can still ask Lauren for help with skills and she's happy to help. Lauren and her team are amazing at what they do!

Lauren and Paw 2 Paw has been a huge great add to our pups life. Not only did she train our dog, the added pack hikes weekly keep him well socialized and plenty tired. A tired dog is a good dog! Thanks Lauren!
