About Heavenly Paws Training

Based on what the business publishes about itself

Tasha Suda, the trainer behind Heavenly Paws Training, has worked in dog behavior and training since 2000. She holds a CPDT-KA certification earned in 2013 and graduated from Trish King's Canine Behavior Academy in 2006. On her site, she shares stories about her own dogs, several of them rescued "foster fails", which she describes as central to her approach to training.

The business operates from a location on Bay Rd in Redwood City, offering group classes structured in multi-week sessions. According to their site, foundation obedience runs through several levels and is designed to prepare dogs for Canine Good Citizen certification. They also list sport-focused classes in agility, scent work, rally, and tricks, plus specialty options like loose leash walking and what they call "Barky Bunch." Drop-in play groups and single-day sessions appear monthly.

For owners who prefer one-on-one work, private training is available in-home or on-location, either as single sessions or packages. They describe a "day training" option where the trainer works directly with the dog four times weekly and meets with the owner once. Remote sessions via Zoom are also offered. A team member named Maria Jose Eguren is listed with a CABC credential, though no additional background is provided on their site.
