Lots structures for dogs to play on. The dogs get a lot of interaction and exercise. While it took his paws some time to tough up to the hard surfaces, I appreciate that that means he's always fairly clean vs playing in dirt and gravel. They've been proactive about communicating any issues they notice on him, like his paw sensitivity which has since resolved itself. All of the employees seem to really enjoy being there and their jobs. I appreciate that they are open for pickup until 7pm! They also offer affordable upgrades for bath or pool time. I imagine this place wouldn't work out for people visiting SLC because you'd have to arrange a fecal test, vaccine paperwork, and a trial day before they'll schedule you. It's worth noting that they also don't allow unfixed/neutered dogs and since we waited 1.5 years, we weren't able to visit until more recently. The one thing I wish they had is crates to enforce some "calm down" time for our overly excitable pup.

TL;DR Our dog Piper died 2 days after her stay. I wish communication was more direct. I wish I was…read moregiven the opportunity to care better for my pet. I wish that the "permission to transport and treat" I signed was used more aggressively to help my dog. Did they communicate? yes. Did they communicate well? In my opinion, no. You can see pictures for communications and decide for yourself, but I wanted to share my experience incase this is not the place for your pup, especially if they have medication needs like mine did. When I picked her up, a caretaker had to physically lift her from the couch and carry her out. I wish I didn't just take a photo, but a video. Piper had stayed many times before but this was the first since she developed diabetes. I was told they could still care for her. Every time prior she would get "tummy issues" because she was a nervous dog and that cutesy language was enough to communicate in instances prior. This last time, not so much. I wish that this did not happen and i was not writing this review. I wish that I could have given my pet a better end if this was her ultimate end because of her diabetes. I hope that DogMode takes Piper's end and uses clear and direct language moving forward. On a customer care note I also will convey that when I went in to talk to the manager about my dogs death, I was told they could not meet and turned away. I had to return several hours later, in which time they took to call the emergency vet and illegally obtain my dogs records. I also felt a violation when I did get to speak with the manager when they insinuated my dog would have died anyway from her diabetes.

This is for the dog wash and not for boarding. I have never boarded my dog but he definitely a bath every now and then. David met me when I walked in for my dog wash. The place, was clean and quiet. He was super welcoming and friendly. I thought I was going into self wash for the $10 special but it turns out to be a $10 wash to have him wash my dog! How could I say no to such a sweet deal? That deal has passed but they do have a $20 per month special for unlimited dog washes. If you have a dog that needs regular baths, phone this is a sweet option. My boy came back happy and clean. No complaints.

So...I really always give places the benefit of the doubt and have written one other negative…read morereview in my life, but this ended up being a negative experience over all. We used them 2 years ago and they picked Mollie, our golden retriever, up every day and brought her back as well. At the end of that stay they told me they only do that for member dogs, so for this visit, we took an Uber to drop her and pick her up every day for 3 days. Upon arrival the first day, the front door was open and we went in there. When we returned at the end of the day, the front door was locked. So I rang the bell. No one answered. I called, no one answered. I walked around to the side door and it was unlocked, so I went inside and the nice lady at the front desk apologized, so I chalked that up to me just not knowing the process. Mollie came back with an injury between her toes that day that I didn't notice when we picked her up, but I gave them the benefit of the doubt and let it go. The second day the same process occurred when I came to pick her up - front door locked, rang the bell, got no response, so I called with no answer, then went to the side door. There was another customer picking up her dog from the side door. I assumed this, again, was just part of the process. Went in and the lady at the front desk apologized again for not unlocking the front door. 100% forgiven for me, and I took Mols back to the hotel and she was good (a little thirsty but that is normal for her not to drink at daycare much). Day 3 - front door was locked when we arrived so I walked Mollie around to the side door and they took her back to play. It was her last day at daycare this time, so I asked them to bathe her and the person at the reception asked if I wanted her nails clipped, so I said sure. Cut to the pick up, I went straight to the side door, bc I assumed it was open and didn't want to repeat the whole locked door then ring bell then call with no answer then go to the side door to pick her up. There was a man loading his Miata (silver) who came out the side door. I held the door for him as I went in and he informed me the process was to go to the front door. I told him that it had been locked the past two days upon pickup, so I just came straight to the side door instead. We walked into the lobby and I had already forgotten about his lecture bc I am not easily frustrated. But he couldn't let it go - proceeded to tell me they let dogs loose in the lobby (maybe not the best idea) and they don't want them to get out. I told him I understood and had followed that process before and would follow it going forward. He apparently charged my cc without telling me the amount and said he was going to get her. The super nice front desk girl brought her to me and we went out the "correct" door. When we got back home Mollie was licking her other paw - not the one injured on Tuesday. Turns out they quicked her in 4 nails while trimming them (like cutting your human nails so short they bleed, pics attached l), which made me question the toe injury from Tuesday as well. And they didn't tell me they accidentally cut her nails too short. Truth is, letting me know on pickup is all they would have had to do and I would have been fine in spite of the injury - since the reason I don't trim her nails myself is I quicked one of my first golden's nails on accident and swore I would let the pros handle it from there on out. All in all, I should probably give them one star, but I know these reviews can totally affect business and maybe this was just a bad week for them. I am not saying don't use them bc other reviews are positive, but there is a possibility that it is not a good experience.

I just wrapped up a 6-week training program with Dogtown's head trainer, Makenzie and had such an…read moreamazing experience. I have a timid, sometimes reactive and aggressive dog, who needed a lot of help with training. After an hour consultation with Makenzie, we decided to do three day & train sessions where my dog would go to their facility for a half day of training one on one with Makenzie, three at home 1:1 sessions in my dog's natural environment, and three hour long group classes. The amount that I learned in these 6 weeks was absolutely mind blowing. Training your dog is about practice and consistency, and speaking your dog's language, and Dogtown gave me the confidence and the knowledge to be able to train my dog on my own. The day & train opportunities were a wonderful way to start. Makenzie would train my dog 1:1 and then would send me videos about everything they worked on during their sessions. When I came to pick her up, Makenzie would show me what they worked on and how I could practice it at home. The training sessions in my own home were incredibly helpful as well. It gave me time to practice with my dog(s) in their natural environment and refreshers on what we had already learned, and building upon the skills she was learning. The group sessions were amazing for my dog, and any dog, to have an opportunity to practice in a new, overstimulating environment with other dogs that she doesn't know. Since she is apprehensive around other dogs, this was amazing practice for her. On top of everything else, the team is so friendly and kind, and the trainers are so knowledgable. I had the chance to take a group class with their trainer Maren and she was wonderful as well. Thank you to the team for teaching both me and my dog the skills to be better trained.

Each class includes a little bit of puppy playtime (usually at the beginning to get some of their energy out) followed by hands on training. You will learn skills in the class, but you have to practice then at home consistently if you want to be successful. They also give you handouts which are available online to reference. Our puppy still has a ways to go but he has learned a lot and so have we. They use positive reinforcement, no punishment, and they really help you to build a bond with your dog. Kelsey, the trainer, was amazing, as well as the rest of the staff assisting her. You can tell they all really love dogs and enjoy their job. I was a little nervous about trying to do a class during covid but it hasn't been an issue at all. The classroom is quite large and everyone wears masks and are more than 6 feet away. It's nice that they've taken more than the necessary precautions to make everyone feel safe. It was also nice to meet other puppies and puppy parents who are encountering the same difficulties you are. It's nice to know you're not alone! Having a puppy sometimes feels like having a newborn all over again and not knowing what the hell you're doing! :) They also offer puppy playtime sessions on Saturdays (I think on Sundays too sometimes). It's only $5 and a great way to socialize your puppy and wear them out. You get 3 free sessions when you sign up for a class and a few 1/2 off daycare dates with your class. There's also a retail store. They have treats, toys, food, harnesses, leashes, etc. In my opinion it's the best selection I've seen. Pet stores may carry more options, but these are more like "the best of the best" options. They seem very handpicked. Things that are really hard to find, you can find here. Our puppy loves the beef tendons, and they last him a long time unlike other treats/chews. They carry lots of other treats like cow ears, pork pizzles, beef tracheas, cow tails, bully sticks, etc. They will recommend products in class which I think is nice if you're a little lost, but never pushy about buying their products. I bought a snuffle mat from Amazon and that was a big mistake. He tore it up pretty easily, and just tipped it over to get all the food out, haha. So I was hesitant to try again, but calling all dogs make theirs in house so after "sampling" it in class, I thought it would be a good purchase. The fabric is much stronger and the mat is weighted so he can't pick it up. It's a great way to occupy him for a bit and calm him down. I'll definitely be back to buy more products/treats from them. I would highly highly recommend Calling All Dogs to anyone looking for puppy classes or even for their older dog. They offer some cool specialized classes like agility, scent work and tricks, which we plan on doing later. I haven't seen any other places with such a huge variety of classes. I hope you check it out, you won't regret it!
