I am happy to report that Dixie has improved so much and loves practicing the commands she learned.

Dorman and the team really know how to turn a puppy or dog into a Good Dog.

It was getting so out of hand that it was impacting our experience with him as our pet. We found Macayla at Unleash Fido in Jacksonville. We enrolled Taz in their 4/5 weeks obedience training and OMG we legit have a brand new dog!! He is more calm, settled, obedient and has really responded positively to this new training and rules. The entire team at Unleash Fido have been very helpful, professional and kind. Our trainer Macayla has checked in with us frequently to see how things are going, answering questions and has provided several post training sessions to ensure we are comfortable and continuing his training. I have had to reach out to her regarding some new undesirable behaviors and she made some suggestions that really worked and has been so incredibly helpful. Worth every penny. I would highly recommend them for any dog training needs!

Reading the amazing views about Unleash Fido was one thing. Experiencing the results from the weeks…read moreworth of work that Macayla and her colleagues put into our dog was even better. We were recommend Unleash Fido by several people. We scheduled an hour long consultation with Travis who ended up giving us 90 minutes of his time to learn about Lily and discuss their program. Lily had several issues, such as pulling on the leash, lunging at cars, barking at people + other dogs and going absolutely crazy when Amazon/UPS was delivering a package. Ultimately, we booked Lily into their month-long Obedience Training Camp. After receiving weekly report cards that contained photos, videos and a brief update on how the last week was, we were finally ready to pick-up Lily. Our first time picking her up was also our first training with her. We worked on establishing place, having her heel while walking, and working on other things around distractions. Within the first 24 hours back at home, our investment in this training payed dividends. She's obedient on walks, doesn't mind others passing by, comes to us on call, goes to place when told and so much more. We'd highly recommend anyone who's dealing with behavior and/or obedience issues to look into Unleash Fido! It was so embarrassing to have an unruly dog, and this was a true investment that we are so happy we made.

Our first time using PetSmart for grooming - gave it a shot since the Petco in Beaches went out of…read morebusiness recently. Overall I was pleased - would give the cut itself a 4/5 (a bit shorter than we'd like, but I did approve it ahead of time - they did not have the blade available for the type of cut my dog typically gets). However, beyond disappointed with the "luxury" package upgrade. I paid nearly $40 for better shampoo, teeth brushing, breath freshener, face brightening wash, pad / nose butter, "premium" cologne and a bandanna (and possibly more, I can't remember all that was included). I think none of this was done. My dog didn't even smell good coming out (granted, she smelled pretty bad going in, so it was an improvement don't get me wrong, but there was certainly no "premium cologne" scent going on). No bandanna or bow even. Pretty bummed about this - I had to ask if her teeth were done and the response was that the groomer did her best. Now I get it - my dog can be a royal pain when it comes to grooming, but I had even asked ahead of time if they couldn't perform all the services if we would be refunded and I was told that would happen. Feeling pretty ripped off and upset at the moment. May be back for a regular bath and cut, but I recommend skipping the "upgrades" since I didn't get anything for it.

Have you taken your Pup to Sawgrass Pet Resort Yet? It's like the Ponte Vedra Inn and Spa or…read moreMarriot Spa but for dogs. No joke. Actually, I think it might be even better. What other pet resort do you know that offers a la cart add on services such as pup ice cream , personal story reading, nature walks, bubble parties, birthday celebrations and special holiday activities for your animals? Every time I go there, I see tons of smiles on parents and pups faces. It's like a preschool for your dogs. They offer day care services and boarding for all sizes, from luxury suits to small dog kennels, there is a place for all sizes. They have large LED screens located throughout the facility that have crackling fire place (in winter) or ocean screen savers (in summer)playing on the television along with ambient sounds or music playing softly in the background. There is a groomer on sight, who together with her team, can outdo Edward Sizzorhands that's how talented they are! From Nature Trails to at least 8 specialized outdoor play yards to Trunk or Treat parties and hand made personalized crafts and treats on holidays, you will feel like you are part of a happy family at Sawgrass Pet Resort. And why does it always smell so good when you walk through the doors? Seriously? Inquiring minds want to know how they do it? Are there magical fairies waving essential oils through the air? Does your dog need training or physical therapy? They even offer that!!! A one stop shop for everything pup. Can it get any better? Why yes it can. One last perk I want to mention (there are so many that I'm sure I'm leaving some out), there is a wonderful Vet clinic right next door. You can rest easy and have peace of mind that your pup will receive the best of care should a vet be required during their stay. That assurance makes taking vacations so much more enjoyable. Don't believe me? Just experience it for yourselves! The proof is in your fur baby's happy smiling face when you pick them up. If you can't tell yet that I highly recommend this place, well, I highly recommend this place. Keep an eye out for future community events and be sure to attend. That's when you get to go behind the scenes and really see where all the magic happens.

My pup was able to stay in a calm, low-stress environment the entire time, which makes a noticeable difference. The quality of the grooming itself is outstanding--every detail is handled with care. The cut is always even, clean, and exactly what I ask for, and my dog comes back looking (and smelling) amazing every time. More importantly, my dog is relaxed and happy after each visit, which tells me everything I need to know about how they're treated. It's clear the staff genuinely care about the dogs, not just the end result.

Not only has Devon helped Alice with her specialized training, but they've also worked with Zoey and David on refresher lessons and day-to-day living strategies to make managing three very different dogs much easier. Devon's approach is amazing--they adjust their training methods to align with what I'm comfortable with, creating a collaborative and supportive experience. It's never about right or wrong; it's about finding what works best for you and your dog. We've done in-person lessons and board-and-trains, and every time, Alice comes home better than when she left. Alice adores Devon, and knowing she's happy and in such capable hands makes all the difference. Devon is easy to communicate with, incredibly knowledgeable, and truly cares about the well-being of every dog they work with. I can't recommend them enough

I wasn't sure how he would do woth other animals but Devon immediately assured me that they would be able to handle Kapano in their house for his boarding! I was impressed as he came back more confident and mannered around other dogs. I was consistently sent updates and photos of him throughout his stay and made to feel more than welcome to visit. He also came back to me in better shape in terms of muscle! If there was anything Devon had questions about they had no issues contacting me right away to let me know or ask about, I felt very comfortable and safe with my dog remaining under Devons care. I had never had to leave my dog with anyone before so i was reasonably worried as he's been my bestfriend for 6 years but i am EXTREMELY satisfied with Devons services and will continue to use devon for any training/boarding related needs for the future. I cannot recommend Arcane Canine enough! And thank you Devon for taking the best care of my boy when I needed it the most you are amazing!
