OLIVIA...My dear sweet guardian angel…read more.. Thanks for making Chewbacca and Mr. Wiggles' first trial day a success. You are truly a saint. I cannot thank you enough for being so incredibly compassionate, attentive, and gentle with them. Your genuine character speaks volumes about your humanitarianism -- it shines through in the way you care, connect, and give of yourself so selflessly. You brought peace of mind to my "yiddle" pups/boys and me, which means more than words can say. Sincerely, Patricia Bettis-Eddie (Patte)

So I brought my dog Cody here for boarding twice after he already had very extensive training, he…read morewas already trained in pinch collar and shock collar. I wanted to bring him here because he has a history of behavioral issues and everything online says this place works with and has experience with these dogs. He was being aggressive towards one of the workers. I'm not condoning my dog's behavior and they did give him a second chance. But the first day I also walked in the guy that works there was yelling at my dog to stop while my dog was frantically yelping and the guy was trying to clip his nails. The second day, we were shown a video of his behavior and it was definitely atypical for my dog at this stage and way more aggressive than we've seen from him in a long time. BUT the guy was walking past the crate feeding him treats while he was acting that way - which is basically reinforcing that behavior (so we were taught with his prior training), instead of correcting him with the shock collar - which is what is supposed to be used for. I'm not saying this place doesn't have nice personnel, they were very accommodating despite My dog's issues and I can't blame them for not wanting their staff to get hurt. However, my issue is with all of the advertising about "working with dogs with behavioral issues" - they certainly did not handle my dog well when he was acting this way and therefore that experience they claim did not seem to be true in my case.

This PetSmart is conveniently located in a shopping plaza in South Euclid. It's nice to shop for my…read morecat and then stop by at one of the nearby restaurants to grab some food or coffee. I'll rate my latest experience shopping for cat food over the weekend. The store is clean, organized, and usually well-stocked. It has seasonal items (like cute dog outfits and themed toys - Hello Kitty, how cute!). There are often pet food sales. This location has grooming salon onsite that's always busy. I was asked whether I need any help during my visit which is always nice. One constant inefficiency at this store is the checkout line. Usually only one checkout is open and line forms quickly. There was a usual very long wait for checkout. This time someone wanted to get fish promotion (buy 4 fish, get 5th free). It took multiple employees to figure out how that works. The customer had to visit the signage multiple times and take pictures to prove that it was actually happening. It was miserable. While bored in the checkout line, I picked up one of the dog toys for my dogs. I put it down immediately because it smelled like very strong paint or acetone. So much so that another customer could smell it. Please be cautious if purchasing toys for your pet. Overall, if you have a lot of time to spare, shop at this store. If you're in a rush, I wouldn't recommend visiting.

I have been taking my 6-month-old puppy to the Foundations Class at Sirius Strides and it has made…read morea world of difference for us in getting her off to a good start! The class has helped us build a trusting, communicative, positive bond with our pup from the beginning. She delights in doing well in her training and is growing into a well-behaved dog who brings joy to all and is a welcome wherever she goes. Dog training seems like something that should be intuitive but it's not! Learning the correct terms, body language, and verbal cues, and an effective pattern of repetition makes the process so much easier. And the social component of a group class is so helpful, too. If there's a new dog in your life - or one who could use some help with their manners - I recommend Sirius.

Cat: when we were away on vacation and she needed medications to be given and food/loving to be given too. They were always available when I needed them last minute for work. My dog loved Adrienne and her team. I trusted in them completely. They always showed up. Thank you so much Adrienne and team!

We are going to do some group training soon, and on Sundays you can rent out the entire center so your pup can play and enjoy the equipment. The staff is so wonderful and they just love the dogs.

Diamond weighs about 5 pounds and the first few times I took her here for daycare and boarding I was worried because she was the smallest dog but there has never been an issue.

The staff LOVE animals and they are ALWAYS happy to see both of us. Everyone is professional and courteous. Connie, the owner, runs a first-class operation and I highly recommend them. If you love your fur baby like me then only the best will do! Dogtropolis Rocks!

I have mixed feelings about this service. The sales presentation was very aggressive and I'm not…read morequite thrilled about using an e collar to correct undesirable behaviors. My young Siberian Husky attended the training for a week last year. When I picked him up, he literally clung to me during my training. At the end, I was concerned about a few things but not enough to speak up during my training for the e collar use. My boy was behaving but something felt off. Once I got him in the car to go home, I gave him his toy that he supposedly had access to all week. He literally whimpered and cried and held the toy. He curled up in the seat during the trip home. It was unusual. I did receive pics and a message praising his progress everyday. That was a positive. One year later, we do not use the e collar and I've spent a lot of time working with my boy. My advice is to ask a lot of questions. Specifically about the daily routine of training, play and socialization during the stay at their facility. I don't think I'd go this route again with my dog.
