Nope. Was optimistic with trying out DD after reading decent reviews but I found it a little…read moreuncomfortable that they told me they don't accept your pet's normal food and only give out Blue (unless you have an Rx food)- but I bought into it because I wanted to switch my dog over anyway. While our dogs were there, we got no communication or indication of anything. When my boyfriend picked our pups up, he felt extremely rushed because of the line and didn't get to talk long to anyone about their stay. I ended up calling myself and literally had to "prod" for answers about how everything went. Only got "they did well" and no details of anything. I know no news is good news, but I could've used a little more detail instead of one word answers and me being the only one talking. The icing on the cake was when our dogs came home, the one who was w other dogs got EXTREMELY sick and the other who was in private play caught the bug 24 hours later from the first. We know anxiety poops after change of scenery/boarding/etc. this was NOT that and our vet needed to prescribe antibiotics because it continued to last into a week and wasn't getting any better. Not saying the bug is anyones fault, but it's the last straw I needed to never go back. Thanks but no thanks!

I waited a long time to write this review... Jonathan had our dog maybe 6 months ago and he's now a…read moreyear old. I wanted to not just write a simple review but to really be honest and sincere because we researched for months to find the right place to train our pup. Our dog is a German Shepherd - Great Pyrenees mix and while he was doing well at wanting to please, he was super stubborn, guarded our home and WOULD not come back for any recall. Now, now, he's the most well behaved and amazing dog, he comes back 100% of the time with just the word "here" and he can jump up where I tell him, he barks once at passers by, but knows that's all. He can do off leash like a pro, today I took him to the trails and he stayed right beside me off leash the entire time I asked. Right now he's sitting in his "place" as he does whenever someone comes to the door. These are all things I tried training him before we sent him to Jonathan that did not work or stick no matter how hard I tried. Right now, I can open the front door, invite him out, and he will stay with me, if he does walk away, he'll come right back when asked. All of this would not be possible without Jonathan. There are some caveats I would say though. If you read the reviews you'll see Jonathan isn't the greatest communicator, and I won't disagree, he's really a dog person, not a people person, but for the care of my dog I want a dog person; if he was great with me but awful with my dog I'd be pissed. His services are expensive. And it will take longer than expected, so expect to bring the dog food and meds and maybe buy him a bed for being at Jonathan's, but it's very much a trust the process, he tells you up front, but he won't bring the dog home till the dog is ready. The other reason I waited for the review is so I could review the extended care and warranty. Upon his return I was unhappy with my dogs progress and I called Jonathan and he came back to me for another whole session to help. Not surprisingly, I was not doing it right... and the true value of his work is what you put into it after, we have been texting and videos and emails with him for the last six months and he's been able to guide us and has invited us to come back for more sessions to fine tune our concerns. If you just give him the dog and then don't expect to train after, you'll loose, because that's just not real, but if you use the essential and reinforce them you'll have a dog you love to be with every day. He mostly gave us the language to talk to our dog, and now we can work with him with ease. I would suggest if you want to invest in your dog, your life, your friendship and relationship with the dog, invest in Jonathan.

I can't recommend Jonathan enough. Slater is over 100lbs and was so wild I couldn't even walk him…read more I was honestly at the point where I thought I'd have to rehome him. I was super hesitant to leave him at all, but the results were so outstanding that it was 100% worth being apart for the four weeks it took. Jonathan is great because he doesn't do any of that crazy stuff like withholding food--he just took the time to see how Slater responded and used what worked for him. Now, I can actually take my dog out to lunch! Even better, Obie is now my service dog for my epilepsy. Jonathan seriously saved my dog and changed my life. If you're struggling with a big dog, go see him.

We're so impressed by their facility, professionalism, and especially their kind and capable staff. Our small rescue pup has boarded there several times, and she really enjoys it. I love how she gets to play with other small dogs, indoors and out; we appreciate them having separate areas for large and small dogs. They take excellent care of her, even giving her a nice bath on the last morning. Just picked her up after a stay, and she looked happy, fit, and ready for a nice nap. Highly recommend K9 Resorts for taking care of your precious pup.

It became very clear that this sweet girl had no training (even her foster mom had JUST potty trained her). Knowing that we had a headstrong, older dog, I didn't think the regular PetSmart/Petco standard training would work. Someone from the rescue recommended Nildan at Z&E and holy cow, she gets dogs! She focuses more on positivity training and getting the dog to do things on their own by playing to their instincts. Even after the first class, our girl was picking things up quickly! For $120, we got 5 weeks of classes (plus a week for orientation- 6 weeks total). For this price, Nildan is the best kept secret in dog training. She offers several different levels of training as well as individual at home training. I highly recommend her-- my dog adored her!!
