Testimonials
“I wanted to make sure people are aware of how wonderful the team at Urban Pawsibilities is. We’ve worked with most of the trainers, whether for a walk, a day training, or a private lesson. Every time, I am really amazed. Boo is a rescue who has a rough history – he’s a fearful reactive dog who definitely is selective with who he trusts. The fact that he now walks into Urban Pawsibilities with confidence to see his human friends melts my heart, but also enforces for me that Boo has found a great foundation for helping him navigate the world more fearlessly. I’m looking forward to the new year, continuing his training with this team and even engaging in group classes. Whether you have a well adjusted dog or a more fearful one who needs support, I can’t more highly recommend this team.”

“I can’t even express how much you guys have helped Kimchi over the last 1.5yrs! We started seeing a big change in her this summer when we took her out to bars/food carts etc. She no longer barks or asks for attention from us when we are eating and stays so calm! This past Saturday we had like 10 people over to our house including a 1.5yr old kid, and she did so well. Even our friends who have seen her ever since we’ve had her notice the change! Thanks so much to all of you ❤️”
