Don't Let Your Dog's Behavior Problems Control Your Life. Applause Your Paws, Inc.'s Professional Dog Trainers Can Help You Achieve Peace of Mind.
WHY Applause Your Paws, Inc.?
From solo-preneur to Miami’s largest reward based dog training company
I have always had dogs in my life, and realized at an early age that I could train dogs for basic obedience and manners.
It wasn’t until after I finished my undergraduate degree, however, that I realized the opportunity to create a dog training company for those dog owners in Miami who wanted an alternative to “traditional” dog training.
I had always volunteered my time training (and rescuing) dogs, but it wasn’t until I had one person offer to pay me that the lightbulb went off. I had never considered a career in dog training because I was so focused on going into oceanography and marine science. I realized that I had the opportunity to create something really special for dog owners in Miami.

Overcoming my fears paid off
From the beginning I knew I wanted to have a training facility, but that was a goal that would be a long time in the making.
I’m not embarrassed to tell people that because of the amount of student loan debt I left college with I wasn’t able to get a loan to launch my business forward.
I had to grow my business the old fashioned way —one step at a time, with determination and hard work. The first few years I was a solo-preneur. Although very fulfilling, my calendar quickly filled to capacity and customers were having to wait 4+ weeks in order to have their dog trained.
It was a scary step, but I knew I had to hire another dog trainer to join my team. Before I could do that, I knew I needed someone to help me keep up with emails, answer the phones, and do the behind the scenes stuff that comes along with the territory of running a business.
Hiring my first administrative assistant was the best move I ever made. The heart and soul she put into my business is a huge reason why I was able to continue being successful while adding trainers to my business.
