So first there should be an option for ten star because Reaba deserves that. This was by and far…read morethe most amazing experience my dog Smokey and I have had. First, this happened to fall the weekend of Hurricane Michael when everyone lost power including Reaba. It was very last minute as my trip plans changed and I had to leave earlier than expected and could not reach the place originally scheduled for my dog. I quickly search engines somewhere and Reaba popped up and I called explained my situation and though slightly off her normal stipulations she agreed to help me. Of course none of us expected the storm at this point as it was Thursday. We left, and I am always super apprehensive leaving Smokey bc he was a rescue and I always worry he thinks I am abandoning him. Well storm hits and sure enough Reaba lost power the entire time I was gone as did everyone here in Saxapahaw. When we returned Sunday we weren't sure what we would return to at our house so Reaba was gracious enough to offer if we needed to pick him up the next day that was fine. Fortunately we did not. We picked up Smoky and I was expecting the usual, my dog to be anxiously waiting for me jumping up to see me , jumping in my car, jumping and running. What I got was similar to a mopey child being picked up by mom to early I seriously could not believe it. My dog did not want to leave!! My dog came home with more manners, quieter, more well trained than I sent him!!! I am still in disbelief!!! I cannot reccommend NO BARKING BACK enough!!!! Honestly!!! I feel like my dog has made friends with Rebea's kids and can't wait to visit again! Even if you live in G'boro or Mebane it's worth the distance for the complete TLC your dog will get from Reaba will give to your furry family member -kerri D

It's such a small thing, but it really makes the shopping experience feel welcoming and personal. The store itself is very spacious and clean, which is another big plus. They're usually well-stocked, though there have been times they didn't have my go-to Purina Pro Plan Sensitive Stomach Salmon for my dog. On those occasions, I've had to grab the turkey or lamb flavor instead, which isn't ideal but still works. Aside from that, this is my main store for all my pet needs. The great service and overall shopping experience keep me coming back!

I highly recommend Russell May, A Dog's Direction Dog Training. He has been working with my young…read moreshelter dog, Ozzie, who I adopted four months ago. Ozzie had been left to fend for himself and spent much, if not all of his life outside as a small mixed breed. He suffered from extreme anxiety and debilitating fear. On Russell's first visit to our home, Ozzie hid behind the sofa for 30 minutes. Before Russell left, Ozzie was eating out of his hand and rolling over for belly rubs. We've been working together for over a month now, and it's like I have a different dog. The techniques that Russell has taught me to use with Ozzie as well as explaining how my actions and reactions influence his behaviors has been invaluable. A genuinely nice person who truly cares about your dog's progress.

From checking in, answering questions, and referring us to additional training videos an aids between sessions, to recommending treats that would help in the process, to being very flexible in scheduling sessions; I couldn't have asked for a better experience for me and my pup.
