Think Pawsitive

Think Pawsitive, LLC is Wisconsin’s largest indoor training and sports complex. Our
facility has several large training rooms in which we teach over sixty-five classes each week and offer a variety of workshops and seminars. We house a canine water treadmill along with a stunning swim center with a 41′ x 21’ pool for dock diving, endurance training, rehabilitation, or interactive play, and we operate a small retail area. The highlight of our facility is our 8,500 square-foot, artificially turfed arena in which we hold approximately 40 canine sports or activities each year, drawing hundreds of competitors, spectators and dog enthusiasts from all over the Midwest. We are committed to promoting safe, healthy and rewarding relationships between
dogs and their owners.

TESTIMONIALS

“Ryan, Sulley, and I absolutely love being a part of the Think Pawsitive family. Sulley did the 8-week puppy class and got excited every time we would walk through the door. He loved seeing all his puppy friends and Miss Brenda, along with doing all the crate/bed/leash walking games. We are really proud of how far he came in those weeks. Sulley is a pro at recall, sit, stay, and lay down. Think Pawsitive does an amazing job at making each pup feel welcome and special! They truly care about each and every dog. We cannot wait to keep attending more events and enrolling Sulley in agility classes.”

“I am so appreciative of the excellent training we receive at Think Pawsitive. The instructors are fantastic and make a concerted effort to identify and work with the strengths and challenges of each individual dog and handler. Phoebe responds so well to positive reinforcement training and truly loves to learn. I am very pleased with the skills she has acquired, the confidence she has gained, and the relationship we have built as a team. ”

"Initially, what attracted me was the excellent facility and equipment. I soon learned Think Pawsitive offered much more. Katie and the Think Pawsitive Staff are very knowledgeable, extremely supportive and are very good at what they do! Their love for the dogs and their training methods are exemplary.”

"The K9 Splash pool enabled my 9.5 year old golden retriever to fully recover from back surgery, and be able to return to agility competition…Swimming the dogs in the heated pool after agility was their idea of a reward, and my idea of a great way to stretch and condition their bodies. Love it!”

- Lisa Escher, Ralphie, & Winnie
"This is one of the finest facilities in the country offering quality instruction for the first time agility person to the seasoned competitor looking to tune up their skill set or that of their dog…There is something for everyone at Think Pawsitive…I strongly suggest you stop by, meet Katie and the Think Pawsitive Staff and set up your first class. You will never regret it!”

"I am very GRATEFUL for the pool at THINK PAWSITIVE. Sadie loved to retrieve the water toys in the pool and always came home to relax for the rest of the evening.”

- Lynda and Sadie
"Think Pawsitive is AWESOME!! I have five (5) Labrador Retrievers of all colors and ages and every one of them have benefitted from Think Pawsitive’s facility. I bring all of them for their workouts in the pool – alternating them as needed – especially in the winter months when it’s way too cold or icy to let them work off their excess energy on their own…I’m a huge fan of Katie, the Think Pawsitive Staff, and their wonderful facility. LONG LIVE THINK PAWSITIVE AND K-9 SPLASH!!”
