Market Drayton · Service area: Market Drayton, Hinstock

Positive Paws Dog Training in short

Positive Paws Dog Training teaches around Hinstock and Market Drayton, with classes spanning Puppy, Bronze, Silver and Gold Good Citizen awards plus tailored one-to-ones and rally obedience to competition level. Kennel Club Listed Status for the scheme is recorded on its directory listing. Contact runs only through the phone number published in the directory, and the Chester Road base is confirmed there alongside the phone number.

Classes span Puppy, Bronze, Silver and Gold awards with tailored one-to-ones and rally obedience to competition level, all around Hinstock and Market Drayton from the Chester Road base. There is no website, so the directory listing and the published phone number are the whole shopfront.

This review finds a mid-fours Google rating from a small set of reviews: respectable, but a narrow base. We rate the award-structured ladder as the draw for owners who like exams and progression. What counts against Positive Paws Dog Training is the lack of a website to browse, with no published prices or insurance details yet to compare.

The customer evidence pairs the directory listing, which records the scheme status, with a small Google set checked in early September. Respectable rather than deep, it matches a phone-first business with no site of its own. The Chester Road base and phone number sit on the directory record alongside the status.
