I think the value Keller and Patty got out of the sessions was the new techniques and bonding.

I truly appreciate all the attention and advice you gave to Keller. He had a great experience and talks a lot to his family about what he learned.

my scentwork prospect was incredibly nervous at looking at anything exterior. Through the process of conditioning he’s gained a ton of confidence
and is now willing to sniff the random objects I put scents around to see if they are hidden there!

Paragon Pups is the only service I know of locally that readily addresses the physical needs and conditioning of our furry family members.

As we age, we tend to make sure we take precautions and do exercises to reduce our bodily aches as well as increase our longevity. Our beloved dogs are no different. Highly recommend to those with active dogs who have put strain on their bodies living full and happy lives.

MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR

Hi, I’m Michelle, a Certified Canine Athlete Specialist, AKC Fit Dog Instructor, and Canine Good Citizen Evaluator with over a decade of hands-on experience training dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I specialize in canine fitness and conditioning, with a background working with everything from energetic sport dogs to beloved senior pets. My mission is to help everyday dog owners understand the "why" and "how" behind keeping their dogs fit, healthy, and injury-free—starting with simple, safe exercises anyone can do.

As an educator, I believe learning should feel approachable and empowering—not overwhelming. I love breaking down canine fitness into clear, actionable steps that build your confidence and your dog’s skills at the same time. Whether I’m teaching in-person or online, I always aim to make training fun, supportive, and rooted in science-backed methods.

I’m so excited to welcome you and help you kick off your dog’s fitness journey. Let’s build a stronger, healthier bond—one paw at a time!
