We were in the process of researching where…read moreto take her for obedience training when one day I was at the bike shop and noticed The Happy Retriever in the same plaza. I checked out the website and liked what I saw so I emailed them. The lady who responded was very nice and helpful. I stopped in the following Saturday and talked to the owner, turns out it was his wife who had emailed me back. He spent over an hour giving me tips. The next weekend, I stopped back in to pick up some supplies, he gave me a lot of advice and actually talked me out of spending some money at his store. Very honest. A few days later, we brought out puppy in for a free evaluation. They spent over two hour just with us, told us all the packages they offer, pricing and gave us some more advice. Our dog will be starting obedience training there within a couple weeks. The pricing was very reasonable for the classes and they really seem to know what they're doing and care very much about doing a good job. In addition to the obedience training, there's a small store. They only carry products they really believe it that are made in the US. I found the prices to be pretty reasonable for a small store with all high quality products. I will be buying everything I can there and staying away from the big chain pet stores.

Tina initially spoke on the phone with me for a long period of time to understand our history, our needs, and our hopes for the future. Tina worked with us over a few sessions in multiple location (in our home, in our backyard, for walks around the neighborhood & at our dog's doggy daycare set) to address our concerns. Tina was very supportive, informative and thoughtful. She was AMAZING with our nervous Aussie and was not afraid to point out things we were doing as owners that were unintentionally reinforce the problem. Tina was willing to work with us in each session for as long as our dog had energy and attention for (and us too). We saw an immediate improvement in our initial areas of concern and still see the rewards of our work. The sense of support has continued beyond our training sessions. Tina is often checking in with us to see how our Aussie is doing. We could not have ask for a better experience. We certainly would recommend PAWsture Perfect K9 to anyone and have already given friends her contact information.

I can not say enough positive things about The Wayward Hound! After a very lengthy phone…read moreconversation with Sheryl (the owner), she invited me to come observe a class to see if it was the right fit for our puppy. Previously, we attended a training class with our puppy elsewhere and I went in for the observation with a preconceived notion that this facility would be the same. I was absolutely blown away!! I immediately signed our puppy up at The Wayward Hound even though we were still enrolled at the other facility. Our class consists of no more than 5 puppies at a time and the training is all hands on training with your puppy. Sheryl and Ronaele are so warm and kind. They go out of their way to make sure everyone is doing the training correctly and they both give fantastic advice. There are always a few laughs during class which is so nice! It makes the training feel less like work and you know everyone surrounding you is experiencing the same things with their puppies. We definitely plan on continuing our training here. People have commented on how well behaved our puppy is and we owe that to Sheryl and Ronaele at The Wayward Hound!

Our team of certified professional dog trainers work hard to create custom programs that fit every dog, and every budget; from private training lessons to boarding and training. Most of us lead pretty hectic lives, work long hours, have numerous commitments, and often don’t have extra time to devote to the hundreds of repetitions and 24/7 accountability that successful dog training requires. You would much rather be spending the time you do have exploring, having fun, making memories, or relaxing with your canine best friend! That’s where our Board and Train dog training services come in. Our trainers will create a unique training program to fit you and your dog's specific needs to achieve the training goals. All travel, treats, care, training, tools, and lifetime guarantee of communication with your assigned trainer is included in each of our programs. At the end of training, your trainer will return the dog back to you where they will not only teach you everything your dog has newly learned, but also how to continue with training in everyday aspects within your own home. Our motivation is to see you communicate, connect, and thrive with your dog!

We have an alarm system that gives us a time stamp of when she comes and goes, and she always arrives within her window and stays for the set time we paid for. She does things like wipe muddy dog paws, which is something our last walker at a different company didn't do. -Dog walking prices are cheaper than all competitors in the area -We had a slight snafu with the dog walker at first, and Leashrly staff stepped up and made it right -Amazing, super user-friendly online payment and scheduling system. We will be using Leashrly for overnight pet setting soon. So far, Leashrly set up a meet and greet with the pet sitter at their home so we could see the environment and feel comfortable. Our last dog walking/pet sitting company didn't do this.

Vacations are always communicated in advance and you are offered the opportunity to meet anyone new who is coming into your home beforehand if time allows, or at least warned that someone new is coming if it's unexpected. Be aware that walkers sometimes bring their children along with them. For me, this is a bonus, I'm happy with the additional interaction, but it still surprised me the first time. We have had a couple of issues here and there but the client coordinator, Ann Marie, has always been very responsive, both during the week and on weekends when needed. One thing I wish I'd known earlier is that you can update a notes section on the website with information about your pup, which is where any substitute dog walkers will look for pertinent information. Our main walker, Jessica, pointed this out to me and helped me determine what would be useful to put here.

So much so my dog started behaving better even with things we didn't specifically work on in training. My initial concerns had to do with aggression and had a few instances of biting.

She knew that we were concerned about veterinary expenses, so took her time to break down different care options and costs to give us an accurate estimate and help us make the best choices for our pets.

Since the corporate entity took over, they have not been able to receive phone calls or change their voice mail... for 6 months!! My cat gets prescriptions that keep him alive, so about a week before we run out, I try calling, shocked to still hear a message saying they'll be out of office in October. After emails, texts, calls, and Facebook messages, I finally get through with about a day to spare, and they barely get my prescription in on time before a weekend, the new years holiday, etc. After the third time going through this, I started seeking other vets, but needed one last script before the new vet would take over. I finally got through and spoke with the vet who agreed to the final prescription, but said I needed to get the cat an annual physical (typical corporate attitude/ get the client to pay as much as possible before doing the necessary service). When I arrived to pick up the pills, there was no communication or intentional miscommunication between the desk and the vet, so they tried to rope me into an immediate appointment, which I turned down, and they asked why. Reluctantly, I told them that I'm switching vets and was just here to pickup. The situation escalated, tho, and the desk said I'd need to speak with the office manager, who was confrontational. Among other things, the manager said they couldn't update the phone system because it hadn't been approved by the corporate headquarters. I was so disappointed in this vet's services. Firstly, they should have sent an email to clients stating that the office had been purchased, there were staff changes, and the phones were broken, but there was nothing of the sort. Who wants to deal with new personnel you've never even heard of or been introduced to? Very unprofessional. On top of which, the staff was rude, the manager was confrontational, they repeatedly tried to price gouge me on appointments and pills, I couldn't get them on the phone for 6 months, communication is nil, and so on. Generally I'd say that the corporate atmosphere is incompatible with doing a good job here.
