“Paw”sitive Dog Training
The Paw2Paw Philosophy
Paw2Paw “Paw”sitive Dog Training, located approximately 60 miles northeast of Dallas, incorporates the philosophy that all dogs can learn through positive methods when given the appropriate communication and sufficient time. Jonna Spiller, CPDT-KA, recognizes that all dogs behave in ways that work for them and make them feel safe. The goal of Paw2Paw training is to tap into those internal motivators and help our dogs effectively understand what we want from them.
Dogs that have good manners and feel safe and secure are much more pleasant to be around and add tremendous happiness to our lives. On the other hand, those that are never taught manners or those that exhibit fear or aggression can be a serious source of stress. The bond between owners and dogs SHOULD be one of the greatest joys you can experience on earth. The mission of Paw2Paw is to help owners understand why dogs behave the way they do and how to best teach their dogs what we humans require to live peaceful and enjoyable lives together.

Dog Owner Reviews
“I highly recommend Paw2Paw Dog Training!! Jonna helped me with Tripp’s training and he soaked it up like a sponge. Her training is so positive. She will help you understand why your dog might behave in a certain way and give you solutions that are based on what makes the most sense to the dog. She really is the dog whisperer! – Jen Kirkpatrick
“I brought my baby to train with Jonna a while ago, and I absolutely loved every single minute of it! She’s not only knowledgeable about what’s she’s doing but she’s so hands on, and works with each person individually as well as a group and makes sure that your puppy is getting what THEY need!! I love how personable she is with everyone! Fantastic teacher and such a sweet sweet lady!! 10/10 recommend!” – Chassidy Cooper
