History
Established in 2012.
Best Paw Forward was formed by partners Michael and Jamie Badial to create a community of pet owners that enjoy their well behaved canine companions. We believe strongly in helping owners learn to manage or prevent behavior issues keeping dogs out of shelters and rescues and building better relationships between canines and their owners.
Meet the Business Owner
Michael B.
Business Owner
Michael Badial has been working with dogs as a trainer for over six years.
Michael’s experience in the military provided him the understanding of what discipline can do, not only for himself, but for the dogs he works with as well. After the military, he was a meter reader. From that experience Michael gained a deeper understanding of dogs on their own turf; meter readers are attacked daily by dogs defending their homes. This provided him the confidence to handle himself around aggressive dogs and the ability to remain calm. This was also the starting point of Michael’s desire to work with aggressive animals.
Michael draws his canine knowledge from actively working in a kennel environment, and constantly seeking new knowledge. He is dedicated to learning the newest information available as well as continuing his education by learning from other trainers in the industry.
Most importantly Michael’s love for dogs is what drives him everyday to wake up and do it again.
