Paws With Perception is here to help you meet your goals. We are a Force Free and Fear Free trainer working in the North Austin metro area.

A few of our common dog training goals
Service Dog Training
Fully trained service dogs that are public access trainer and task trained for your specific disability. We train tasks for needs like medical alert, psychiatric, mobility, medical response and more! We guide you through the entire process from choosing your dog through passing your public access test.
Therapy Dog Training
Therapy dogs differ from service dogs in their duties but hold an equally important job. Do you think your dog has what it takes to become a therapy dog and brighten people's days when invited to hospitals, nursing homes, schools, etc.? Contact us for more details so we can begin helping you through the entire process so you may begin your volunteer work with your dog.
Reactivity Training
All dogs react, but some dogs struggle with it more than others. Whether your dog is reacting out of fear, anxiety, overstimulation, excitement, or another cause, let us guide you through the process of teaching your dog to become neutral to that specific trigger without suppressing their emotional well-being.
Behavior Modification
What does your dog do that you wish they didn't? Do they grab trash out of your bin? Dig holes in your yard? Chew up your favorite shoes? Jump all over your guests to greet them? Let us guide you through the process of behavior modification in which we trade that "bad" behavior for a "good one"!
Obedience Training
Many owners know they want a dog who listens to a cue the first time, every time, but they are unsure of how to get from point A to point B. We love helping our clients learn this process for themselves in a force-free, fear-free, successful manner so they can begin to use these skills when training their dogs to do a number of behaviors.
Puppy Socialization
We believe socialization is something that is imperative to the well-being of all dogs. Whether you are a seasoned owner or a first time puppy raiser, let us guide you through the process of early socialization. We strongly believe and follow the positions of AVSAB and AVMA when it comes to socialization.
