Hopeful Paws currently offers private lessons in Sturgeon Bay. We have heated indoor space and also train at dog friendly places such as farmer’s markets, farm & garden stores, veterinary offices, hardware stores, parks and trails, OR the comfort of your home (travel rates apply).

Lessons are 30 min long and $75 each. We will identify areas for improvement and discuss how to create a manageable environment for you and your dog. This includes follow up notes and a customized training plan.
