Welcome to Willow Glen PawsAs a licensed family dog mediator, I am committed to educating my clients with the knowledge they need to see and understand who their dog is under that coat of fur. Dogs evolved over thousands of years to help humanity survive and thrive. We bred them for very specific functions. To herd livestock, kill rodents, protect property, find food sources and keep us warm. Now, they find themselves living as captive pets in our home and some have difficulty adjusting to our modern living arrangements. The importance of the bond between you and your dog cannot be overstated. Let’s deepen that bond and bring out the best in you and your true companion.

MORE ABOUT REBECCATESTIMONIALS
 Willow Glen Paws Puppy School was just the training we needed for our little boxer. Rebecca was amazing to work with. She really listened, was supportive, and made training fun. Our puppy loved going there and we loved getting the updates and photos. We’ve definitely seen the results and highly recommend this school to others. Deanna Morris Rebecca helped us get off to right start with our new Goldendoodle puppy. I enjoyed working with Rebecca and was happy with how she helped us train and teach our family how to work with the puppy. We also used her for board and train while on vacation. She made us feel very good about leaving our puppy in very good caring hands. Audrey Garcia Highly recommend. Rebecca takes a very positive & down to earth approach to dog training. She trains in her home, so our pup Annie learned in the same kind of environment she lives in – couches & kitchen counters & so on – and she gave us plenty of support to continue the training at home. I thought I pretty much knew the basics about puppies & dogs, but I learned so much from Rebecca! Emily Bolmen “Rebecca is a godsend. She came to our house and went over everything we needed for our new puppy to make sure we started on the right paw. She is knowledgable about puppies and patient with thier owners. We are so happy we found her.” B. Zormac

What should you ask before booking a board and train in San Jose?

Ask about overnight staffing, whether owner visits are allowed, how many dogs each trainer handles, which methods and tools are used, whether handoff sessions are included, and what happens if your dog is not a fit mid-program. Clear answers matter more than a polished sales page.

Why do dogs regress after board and train?

Regression after board and train is the most common complaint because skills learned in a training kennel do not automatically transfer to your home. Plan for owner coaching, structured handoff sessions, and a realistic homework plan. See our methodology for how we evaluate program transparency.
