Customer's reviews

They are the best! If you are looking for PERSONALIZED dog training then Big N' Small Paws is perfect! We have been using their services for over 2 years on and off. We have a German Shepherd who WAS dog reactive and 2 Golden Retrievers that need ongoing "tune ups". The Big N' Small Paws team never disappoints. We also use their twice a week Doggie Daycare. I have to mention Samari too. She is their onsite groomer who always fits Juniper in during daycare. So super convenient! They truly are a one stop shop for all your dog care needs. Lastly, we have used other trainers in the past and absolutely none of them actually cared, making a personal connection, with any of our dogs like the Big N' Small Paws training team. Much thanks and appreciation to Big N' Small Paws for their services! ~ Tammy H
Absolutely thrilled with our experience at Big N' Small Paws 317! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this dog training facility prioritizes positive reinforcement techniques, which made all the difference for our pup. The trainers are incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely care about each dog’s development. We also took advantage of their boarding services in Indianapolis, and we couldn’t be happier. Our dog returned home happy and well-adjusted, thanks to the attentive care he received. The facility is clean, safe, and welcoming, creating a perfect environment for both training and boarding. Highly recommend Big N' Small Paws 317 for anyone looking for exceptional dog training and boarding in Indianapolis! Our dog has made significant progress, and we can’t thank the team enough! Five stars all the way! ~ U k
A few short words cannot highlight how happy I am with the work Big N’ Small Paws 317 did! This is coming from a very frugal person who hates to spend money on anything, this service was worth every penny and more! Jerry and his team absolutely blew my expectations out of the water! Our 4 month old German Shepard came out of his 21 day board and train a completely different puppy. Not only will your dog have the most amazing training, but Jerry went above and beyond to make sure we were educated on how to continue the progress when he came back home. Jerry really does care about each and every dog that he trains and even has different techniques based on their individual personalities. He wants just as much for your dog as you do, so absolutely use this training! ~ Garrett G
