Paw & Order SWFL Pack

Paw & Order in SWFL

Welcome! I’m Shawn Humphreys, the proud owner of Paw & Order SWFL…

I began my career in law enforcement in 2003 in DeKalb County, Georgia. After moving to a smaller city agency, I dedicated my extra time to canine handling and training. Despite numerous opportunities in different roles, my singular focus was on K9 work. I was fortunate to quickly join the K9 unit, where I had the privilege of working alongside three exceptional partners. Throughout my career, I received invaluable guidance from outstanding trainers, allowing me to hone my skills with police and military working dogs. Eventually, I became a master trainer through Vohne Liche Kennels in Denver, Indiana.

In addition, I became a certifying official for the American Working Dog Association, which enabled me to certify dog teams from across the country. I led and participated in several working dog seminars, where I had the pleasure of meeting Elissa and Steve Sentner from Paw & Order Dog Training. When I decided to transition out of law enforcement, my choice was clear: Paw & Order Dog Training.

With support from many mentors, I was able to pursue my dream of owning a dog training company. After two successful years at this location, we’ve established ourselves as a prominent name in the industry. We are committed to providing solid, clear, and effective dog training while also focusing on building owners’ confidence and skills in training their dogs.

Our Paw & Order SWFL Pack offers the following dog training programs. Contact us today for more information or to get scheduled.

In-Home Dog Training

Our trainer comes to your home and works with you and your dog in their familiar environment. Our most popular package offers everything you need to achieve your training goals together.

Stay & Train

Your dog will undergo real-world training while in our care for approximately 3 weeks, receiving one-on-one sessions, socializing with other dogs, and honing their skills on field trips.

Group Dog Training Class

We don't currently offer group classes, but we are searching for a space to organize classes in the future.

Virtual Dog Training

Limited availability! Our trainer will meet with you virtually, observe and assess the dog's behavior issues, and provide step by step guidance.

Hybrid Dog Training Program

All of our training curriculum is customized for each dog, but with our Hybrid program, we can combine various programs (i.e. in-home AND stay & train). Contact us for details.

Canine Good Citizen

We do not hold prep classes, but we can certify your dog to be officially recognized as a Good Canine Citizen by the AKC.

Therapy Dog

We do not hold prep classes, but we can certify your dog as a therapy dog through Therapy Dogs United.

Adventures

Our favorite service is FREE to our clients - we organize fun activities for our clients and their dogs. Join us at the bar or at the trail, just be sure to bring your dog!

Don't just take our word for it.

In the Southwest Florida canine justice system, the dogs are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: The professional dog trainers, who investigate and solve the dog’s behavior problems; and the dog owners, who uphold the training knowledge taught to them.

These are their stories…

Expert Dog Training Services in Fort Myers and Nearby Florida Towns

Helping You Train Your Dog in Your SWFL Home

Would your dog benefit from one-on-one dog training in their natural environment? With our private in-home training program, your dog will learn to overcome all the challenges and distractions they experience every day. 

Board and Train Services in Fort Myers for Busy Dog Owners

We know that not every owner has the time to train their dog. With our stay and train services (commonly referred to as board and train), you can send your dog to us for an extended stay (usually three to six weeks). Your dog will experience the perfect blend of group socialization and private training that helps them achieve every goal you set for them.

Therapy Dog Training

Is your dog a good candidate to be a therapy dog? The unconditional love and affection of a therapy dog can significantly improve the quality of life for those they interact with. We can certify your dog as a Therapy Dog! 

Canine Good Citizen Training

Do you want your dog to be a Canine Good Citizen? We can test your dog so they can officially earn the Good Canine Citizen title!

Join Us on Educational Adventures

Would you enjoy hiking, kayaking, or just hanging out with other dogs and their owners at a bar? With our regular adventures, you can have fun while socializing, practicing your dog’s training, and learning from other owners. 

What’s the best part? We organize these gatherings for free for our clients!

We Can Train Your Dog Virtually

If you live outside of our area, or you have other restrictions that don’t allow in-person training, we offer virtual dog training. We approach this program the same as in-home training, but we’ll guide you and your dog virtually via online video appointments. We produce the same quality of results and show the same level of dedication toward meeting your goals.

Enhance your dog training experience in SWFL, including Bonita Springs, Cape Coral, Fort Myers, and Naples. Whether you need in-home training, board and train services, therapy dog certification, or virtual sessions, we’re here to help your dog reach their full potential!
