    I contacted Ridgeside K9 after doing a google search for dog trainers in my area. My initial…read moreconsultation with Taylor was great, she asked a lot of questions about my Malinois rescue and what I was looking to get out of training. I explained to her that there were a few areas that he and I could use some help in, and we got the ball rolling. Brent showed up on the day of pickup and walked me through the process of what to expect during the time he would be training Kona and what kind of updates I would get. I got daily pictures and updates on his status. All I can say is wow, when Kona came back, he was a different dog. Brent spent about 2.5 hours with my family explaining how to integrate the training he used into our lives and how to use the tools he provided us with to make sure Kona succeeds. I think he trains the owners more than the dogs (lol). After we went through his training it was time to put it to use, he had my wife, and I walk Kona, and he gave us tips on how to correct behavior and relax and enjoy the walk. Thank you to Brent and his staff for helping us help Kona be a successful rescue and a huge part of our family.

    The one star for the training, and the lack of stars for unprofessional conduct from the owner…read more(Brent). Our dog went through professional behavioral training through another company years ago. He had a solid baseline for learning and commands (sit, heal, place, etc.). Our primary issue was our dog's reactivity. We needed more help on how we as owners could manage this better. We decided to go with Ridgeside K-9 based on their stellar reviews and 4 week behavior modification board and train. Brent picked our dog up and was very thorough on what the plan was. We received a picture/video just about every evening with minimal communication attached. We were trusting their process. During the turn over, everything went well. We did notice our dog had lost a good amount of weight. He was never over weight by any means, but now we can really feel his ribs, spine, and hip bones. Nothing unhealthy though. We also noticed his bark was very different, and we figured it was due to him barking in the kennel during the turn over. Just over a week went by, and our dog's bark was still extremely weak. That coupled with our dog's weight loss had us a little uneasy. When confronting Brent over a phone call out of concern for our dog he became extremely defensive. He heatedly said our dog about drove him insane for 2 weeks due to his barking (which he never thought to mention previously), and then asked if we see a difference in him considering the training. I said not significantly. As mentioned, we've worked our dog for years, and the technique Brent taught us regarding our dog's reactivity is new to us. It had been just over a week and we were still learning to manage and get the results we need. However, before I could elaborate on any of this Brent completely flew off the handle. He was literally YELLING at me over the phone, saying I don't know what I'm talking about, we are the problem, and that I am a person who worries too much. I simply wanted to talk to him out of concern for my dog, and I felt like that meant nothing to him. My husband intervened on the phone due to Brent's disrespect toward me and it only got worse from there. We didn't get a hint of this instability throughout our prior interactions with Brent, and this left both of us completely in shock. Once things cooled down, Brent went back into a mode of wanting to help. Although this was appreciated, the damage was done. Brent has a lot of passion and pride in his work, but his temper concerns us greatly. It was like a switch, and there was ABSOLUTELY no excuse for that level of disrespect towards us.

    We just want to thank this Animal Hospital for taking such good care of our baby. Unfortunately we…read morehad to say our goodbyes the other day and they did everything to make sure we were comfortable as was our baby before our final goodbye. Thank you guys so much for helping us through such a hard time and explaining the situation to us over and over because we just couldn't grasp the idea of losing our baby. The flowers you sent were so thoughtful after. Nothing will ever prepare you for losing your baby but thank you for being so professional and so kind to us. -Moreé's Mom

    I recently had one of the most heartbreaking and infuriating experiences of my life with Temple…read moreTerrace Animal Hospital. As a family, we had to make the devastating decision to put our beloved dog to sleep, and we entrusted this facility with her final moments. In that moment of grief, we made one single, simple, deeply personal request: that the blanket our dog was wrapped in be returned to us. This blanket was not just a piece of fabric--it was the last tangible connection we would have to our family member, a source of comfort in our mourning. They failed us in the worst possible way. Despite our clear and heartfelt request, the blanket was not returned. When we asked where it was, all we received in return was a cold, dismissive response: "There's nothing we can do." And an empty "I'm sorry." That is not an appropriate or acceptable response for a family shattered by grief. This isn't about a mistake over paperwork or a rescheduling issue--this is about compassion, respect, and basic human decency being completely absent when we needed it most. I want anyone considering this facility to imagine being in our shoes. Imagine losing your pet--your family member--and trusting a hospital with her final care, only to be told that the one thing you asked for, the one small comfort you clung to, was carelessly discarded. Imagine if this were your mother, your child, or anyone you loved being handled with such indifference. The trauma this has caused our family is immeasurable. Their staff's response was unacceptable and devoid of true empathy. "There's nothing we can do" is not a policy--it's a failure of compassion. A veterinary hospital should understand the gravity of these moments and treat them with the utmost care. Instead, we were left with a hollow apology and no effort to make things right. We are utterly disgusted and heartbroken by the way we were treated. Trust is everything when it comes to end-of-life care for a beloved pet, and Temple Terrace Animal Hospital has proven they do not deserve that trust. I would strongly urge other families to think twice before bringing their pet here for such sensitive care. No one deserves to endure the pain we have experienced, knowing that the very people you put your faith in could not be bothered to respect your last request.
