My dog is too old to learn new tricks!
It’s never too late! At All Paws, we believe any dog can benefit from training. Our adaptable programs cater to all ages, providing mental stimulation and improving your dog’s quality of life. Here’s why age is just a number:

Adaptable Programs: Our customized training programs cater to your dog’s individual learning style and physical capabilities, regardless of age.
Cognitive Stimulation: Training provides mental stimulation and enrichment for senior dogs, keeping their minds sharp and preventing cognitive decline.
Improved Quality of Life: Even small changes in behavior can significantly improve your senior dog’s quality of life and your relationship with them.
The result? A happier, more well-behaved dog, no matter their age!
I Don’t Have Time for Training!?
We understand. That’s why we offer;
Free Consultations: Discuss your goals and create a customized plan.
Mix-and-Match Options: Choose from daycare/board and trains, private lessons, and group classes.
Long-Term Value: Prevent problem behaviors and reduce stress.
Flexible Scheduling: Variety of training times and formats to fit your busy life.
Daycare/Board and Train: Combine training with daycare or boarding for a comprehensive experience. Please note, dogs must be pre-approved for daycare to qualify for this option.
Personalized Support: Ongoing guidance, even outside of sessions.
The benefit? A priceless bond with your well-behaved companion without breaking the bank.

“Hi, I’m Tara! I have been working in the animal industry as long as I can remember! I knew I was going to work with pups since I was only 10 years old and have worked to gain as much dog experience as possible! I attended THE Ohio State University and received my Bachelor’s degree in Animal Sciences with a minor in Psychology. During college, I did an internship training Diabetic Alert Service dogs as well as worked as the Animal Specialist at COSI.
During my years of pet experience, I have worked in vet clinics, daycares, pet retail, and other training facilities. I have a total of 6 years of experience in training and 10+ years of professional animal experience. My life goal is to “better the lives of dogs however I can.”
In my free time, I love to hang out with my 2 wonderful pups! Roisin (pictured) is a Mini Australian Shepherd with plenty of energy to spare. Roisin loves to participate in lessons as a high-level distraction when needed. Nebula is a sweet mixed pup which my husband and I found wandering the streets. She participates in lessons as a distance distraction, as she is still in training.”

All Paws Grooming always puts the health, safety, and well-being of the pet above all else. We use organic products and train our Salon Staff to understand that a trip to the groomer isn’t just about a bath or a haircut; it’s an experience and an important part of overall pet wellness. We’re a kennel-free salon, meaning we don’t use cage drying methods or double-book/overlap appointment times. Your pet gets one-on-one attention from the beginning of the appointment until the end. Treats and kisses included free of charge!
We provide customized grooming services and packages that focus on what’s best for your pet. Everything from Full-Service spa days with nose-to-toes haircuts, to quick individual services like nail trims. Do you need a brush out to keep your dog tangle-free between grooms? Or maybe you’re feeling fun and want to let your dog rock a blue mohawk and purple nail polish? We do all that, too! Whether you’re a member of the Daycare, or you just need a loving groomer to make your furbaby look and feel beautiful, we’re here for you and for them.
Pets are required to have DHLPP & Rabies vaccinations in order to be groomed at our facility. Bordetella is also highly recommended. For the safety of everyone: pets cannot be pregnant, nursing or in heat at the time of service. An All Paws profile must be completed with all customer forms signed before an appointment can be saved. If you have aggressive behavior concerns for your pet (with strangers or other animals) a phone consult is necessary to determine which safety measures are needed before booking.
