The Training and Handling Skills You Need to Enjoy Your Dog in Any Environment.
Accomplished in only 6 weeks!
Do you love your dog, but they’ve become a bit too much to handle?
The tugging, the pulling, the lunging, the attempts to chase after other animals (or even people!) on each and every walk. You know you have to do something about it.
And this is exactly where PawSessions comes in.
We’re going to help you get your dog under control and turn them into the lovable little creature you know they are on the inside. And it’s going to be much simpler and faster than you can imagine, we promise!
In fact, our winning formula of done-for-you or done-with-you dog training, socialization, and teaching handling skills to owners provides an amazing foundation for your dog in just 6 weeks!
Want to know how it would work for you and your dog? Start out with a free consultation call, then join us for a discounted, $50 introductory session (available until April 30th).
Praise & Reviews for PawSessions!

“Laurie and Sarah are wonderful people who genuinely love all dogs and want the very best for them.
This lady knows her stuff. She explained everything, never made us feel rushed and adapted her methods if she saw something wasn’t working quite right. We saw progress after every session!
Today Max is a well behaved boy who comes everywhere with us and is now training to be my service dog!

“I adopted my 8 month old Husky a month ago and quickly learned that she was in need of some training. She would constantly pull hard on her leash.
I brought my husky to PawSessions, and true to her word, she had my dog walking calmly on a leash. Much to my surprise, she did it in three minutes! I’ve since been to PawSessions for some private lessons and will be signing up for their group sessions shortly. In two sessions, I began to walk my dog with no pulling.
If you have a pet that you want to train, I highly suggest PawSessions!”

“Our little cockapoo has made incredible progress in just 3 sessions. Our main focus has been walking on a loose leash, “drop it,” and “leave it.”
Laurie is very patient and knowledgeable, and has taught us how to work with our dog so that he is polite and well-mannered around both people and dogs. The facility is very clean, we truly look forward to our weekly sessions! Thank you!”

Results You and Your Dog Will Experience
Relief
You’ll be able to relax once your dog isn’t jumping, pulling, and tugging their way all over Long Island. Instead, you can be confident in a much wider variety of settings with your dog, both indoor and outdoor.
Flexibility
Whatever training format you prefer, and no matter how busy your schedule is, PawSessions has you covered.
With our dropoff training program, you can have our professional trainers work with them, then just pick them up when they’re ready! Did you sign-up for a class but you can’t make it for one week? No problem! You can swap back and forth between or done-with-you and done-for-you training options.
Freedom
You’ll have less need to crate your dog when you have people over, or leave them with friends or family when you want to do something fun. More opportunities to bring your dog along with you = everyone wins!
Safety
As your dog becomes better trained they’ll be less of a safety concern for yourself, themselves, and those around you.
Clarity
You’ll know exactly what to do RIGHT with your dog’s training when you participate in our dropoff program, group classes or private training. Our trainers will be there in-person to observe how you interact with your dog, ensuring that you engage with them appropriately depending on the situation.
Engagement
We’ll teach you how to have a relationship with your dog and develop a better connection. You won’t just be learning commands and skills, you’ll also be better equipped to read your dog’s emotions and desires and know how to develop respect from your dog so that they actually listen to you.
Commands and Skills Your Dog Will Learn
Here is a sample of commands that your dog (and you!) will know once you graduate from our beginner obedience course.
1. Getting your dog’s attention
2. Sit & Stay
3. Down & Stay
4. Come when Called
5. Place
6. Leave it
7. Heel
8. Walking with a Loose Leash

Laurie & Sarah
About Our Long Island Dog Training Company
Hi, we’re Laurie and Sarah, owners of PawSessions.
We are a mother-daughter team, both growing up and living in Huntington our whole lives. We love the area, and are so thrilled to have opened our dream business here and be able to service our community.
At PawSessions, people can bring their dogs for group, dropoff, or private dog training lessons. We started our business because of our love of dogs, and this is exactly what keeps us in business.
From puppies who need to learn the basics, to dogs with mild to severe aggression, leash reactivity, and timid or shy dogs, we work with you on building your dog’s confidence and independence, which is extremely important for all dogs (and people)!
We also offer CGC, CGCA and CGCU (Public Access) training for Therapy and Service Dogs and are certified for AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluations.
