Pawsitive Change began as a rehabilitative dog training program inside California prisons—a way to bring healing to incarcerated individuals and rescue dogs who had been discarded or overlooked. We believed in the power of connection, responsibility, and compassion. And it worked.

Dani’s journey is one of resilience and second chances. From being euthanasia listed at the shelter, to rescue, to becoming a student in the Pawsitive Change prison program — Dani has worked so hard. She’s built confidence, learned to trust, and mastered the skills that prepare her for a real life in a home. She graduates December 23. And heartbreakingly, Dani is the ONLY dog in her class without an adoptive home to go to, after graduation. Dani has done the hard work to prepare for the bright f

Repetition is the key in any dog training program and our trainers pair that repetition with praise and positive feedback. We want the training sessions to be fun and we want each dog to have a positive association with their trainers and the work. Our goal is for the new information they’re learning to be retained so when they graduate they’ll take those skills to their new homes. Slink shows just how effective that repetition and positivity are. He loves every bit of each session and is eager

We’re sure you’ve seen the gentle leaders on many of our dogs in our posts. When used correctly these are an amazing tool to discourage pulling and help teach our dogs how to walk appropriately when on leash. Just like any tool each dog must acclimate to its use and we prefer using positive reinforcement to encourage acceptance. Here we demonstrate how to introduce a gentle leader to a dog who’s never worn one. #marleysmutts #muttmilitia #dogrescue #foster #adopt #rescuedog #secondchance #foster

Mr Bell has spent 45 years in prison, 5 of which have been in our program—10 rounds in total. I have learned more from this man than I can express. He has brought immense value to our program—for his fellow students as well as the dogs. Dennis: we love you; we honor your commitment and we appreciate you.

There’s a lot of preparation getting dogs chosen to go into Pawsitive Change ready for the prison program. We not only start them on the basics of crate training but also get them accustomed to walking on a gentle leader. This sets up each dog for success their very 1st day in prison but ensures their transition is smooth and completed with less stress. Their prison trainers can then focus on fine tuning these skills and getting each dog fully adoption ready. We get a lot of questions and commen

We are proud of what these men and dogs achieve and our trainers challenge them each and every class. We want it to be a little bit hard because how will they grow if we’re not constantly pushing them towards new goals? Mist and Phoenix (pictured) were up for the challenge and have embraced every single thing they’ve learned. They’re ready to find homes. If you’re looking for dog friendly, social, fun and trained one of these two might be your perfect fit! Apply today, #marleysmutts #muttmilitia

We are thrilled to announce the launch of a brand-new Pawsitive Change program on the maximum-security Alpha Yard at Tehachapi State Prison!
