He learned it in a day and it stuck. He was 4 months old when we adopted him and he just turned 4 years old. He is a very sweet dog, is full of energy and loves our 4 cats and other dogs. The adoption process was very easy and we got to spend some time getting acquainted with the puppy, so when it was time to take him to his new home it was a smooth transition for him. If adopting any dogs in the future and adding to our family I will definitely be reaching out to GLDR. We couldn't imagine our lives without Jackson and he has brought us so much joy. We are glad we were able to give him a good home with a family that will keep him safe, happy and loved for the rest of his life.

People say all the time that training dogs turns them into robots... this couldn't be further from…read morethe truth. Our dogs were baseline trained before we started going to Custom K9 and now are very well trained with the plus of off leash obedience. Having your dog under control and stable in public and around all types of dogs makes for SO many more opportunities for fun. Now that our dogs are "robot" trained they get to go with us everywhere. They get to run around dog friendly beaches off leash and have the time of their life since we can keep them under control. Our lives and our dogs are happier, less stressful, more adventurous and the biggest one.. safer now that they are reliably trained.

Izzy is listening better, learning to walk on a leash and is no longer afraid of other dogs (or maybe that was my fear). Diane and her crew are wonderful. Are they tuff? Absolutely! Because they care about the dogs. Could you get your feelings hurt? Maybe, because they care about the dogs!. Are you going to be encouraged when they see progress?. Absolutely! Because they care about the dogs. On days it's time to go to "School" Izzy runs to the front door, sits, and waits for her training collar to be put on!. It's awesome. I would recommend J&J to every dog owner!!!!!

Our German Shepherd pup had so many issues in the beginning & spent many visits at the Vet, then at the same time I was at my end with serious health issues with father in law tapping my husband's strength and involvement I was so desperate many times with hoping we could keep our beloved puppy. It's been a hard road, we have tried to learn a lot to self teach ourselves and researched more local training facilities but nothing seemed to fit. Our first consultation with Ryan gave us a lot of confidence that finally a solid professional dog trainer. When he and Sarah came for our first session we were absolutely astounded. They truly are very in tune to the dog and they were also extremely capable of engaging us to be apart of the training. Their love for the pup and what they do shines through! I loved learning how to break down each little piece of learning about what our goals were and working with my Jedi to see her GET IT. I became more amazed at what dogs are capable of than I ever knew was in these incredible animals we become family with. We have made more progress with northBound Dog Training in short order that I think is a testimony to their skills and ability to capture what we need to know and what our dog needs from us. They really get how the dog is wired up and honing in on the dog's awareness, as well as reading the dog for tolerating how much time is needed for the work your doing. I would recommend them to anyone who wants a caring, kind, skilled and capable dog trainer that will listen to you as the owner and help you understand the ways they do their work to have you be apart of it. Equipping you to be capable too! I wish I had them at the beginning when I was near melting down once a week, but better late than never! I don't feel lost and alone in the journey now, or like drowning in online floods of options that make your head spin. Yep.. I can't say enough good things about them. Ya might want to call them and shut me up! Haha!

We decided to go to a local vet instead of our own that is over an hour away. What a great decision! The ladies at Advanced pet care, Dr Sheldon, MW, and AC were way more then we could of hoped for. They took our Miley's passing very personal, were incredibly patient, and kind and had so much compassion for what we were going through. Not once did we feel rushed or pushed. They have this amazing living room setup. With a private entrance and exit. Couch, fire place, dog bed with blankets. The ladies brought us tissue boxes and bottled water. These ladies made a horrible day as beautiful as possible. We will be switching all of our animals to this veterinary office. From the bottom of my heart I cannot thank these ladies enough. Even if you do not vet with them please consider using their service to help your pet over the rainbow bridge.

I've read through other reviews out of curiosity - here are some of the comments that I can give my take on. Is the care here cheap? No! Is the care here thorough, trustworthy, and high quality? Yes! I do not mind the pricing at all given the care my pets receive. It is clean, they are thorough and knowledgeable, pricing is transparent and they ask consent while providing an estimate before doing anything. I'm not guilted if I refuse a service - just educated on the consequences/changes in outcomes/reasons for their recommendations, which is IMPORTANT, whether or not you are ready to hear it. Let's have more respect for our vets who want to do right by our pets, but can't do that on their own dime. Yes, even though Covid is over, you can still wait in the car with your pet. This has really been helpful for my dog who gets more and more anxious the longer he sits in the waiting room. They have options for non-medical visits for behavioral issues if your pet has more severe anxiety about vets. They do not allow e-collars at visits, which is a good idea (imo, not everyone uses them appropriately anyhow!). My dogs, admittedly, are not the easiest patients. I adopted both of them as adults, and they have their quirks. However, the dogs aren't afraid and the team gets the job done without issues and plenty of bribery. To clear up some other issues with other reviews - Are they available after hours, weekends, and holidays for emergencies? No! They are not an er vet clinic. Yes, they may not be able to fit you in immediately. But they do have first call, same day appointments which has worked out well in urgent situations - when they fill up, they fill up. Staff will call you if there is a cancellation and they understand the urgency of your need. I can't blame their team for needing some sort of work/life balance! I believe they offer care credit and other options if you can't immediately afford the care your animal needs. There is some sort of gift basket raffle every now and again to raise money for needy pets. Overall, I recommend this office for the thorough care my pets receive. Thank you to the team at APC!
