With K9's help, they are best friends who comfort each other in times of stress or excitement. At every opportunity, the two find each other and spend hours simply licking and snuggling with each other. No aggression. No hostility. Just love and comfort. Although one of our boys still becomes vocal whenever an "intruder" (Amazon delivery person) is detected, he is completely controllable. Can't thank them enough!

We did a 4 week board and train and got a happier, more confident, and well behaved dog back. Through her training she improved our puppy's spirit and gave us the dog we dreamed of. We will use K9Kompanion for boarding and play dates for the years to come. They keep you posted daily with texts and photos and help keep you in touch along the way. They help you and your dog get to a great relationship. Their services are so worth it, you can stop looking now that you've found K9Kompanion! We found her from someone we know who had a great experience with their puppy and we now know many more customers, all so pleased with the training received. 5 stars every day!!!

We just completed our second round of classes with Judy at Proper Paw and have signed up for the…read morenext session. Our two courses this winter were conducted via Zoom and were extremely effective. The next course, this spring, will be in person! The training from Proper Paws has been instrumental in helping our Puerto Rican rescue dog settle into our household. Judy has given us the tools we need to prevent or react effectively to behaviors such as begging at the table, pulling on leash, jumping/nipping, lunging to greet other dogs, etc. While these are all normal dog behaviors, Proper Paws has helped us guide our pup toward more desirable behaviors and we see a real difference. More importantly, we work on crucial safety behaviors such as "stay" and "down" that can make all the difference in a dangerous situation. All of the training is through positive reinforcement. We learn not to expect perfection but, rather, to appreciate progress. I highly recommend Judy and her program for anyone looking to solidify the bond with their dog and teach both humans and dogs in the household to interact positively and be safe in all variety of situations. Highly recommend!

We are currently finishing puppy kindergarten with Judy and have signed up for a second class,…read moreGraduate Puppy. I am really impressed with her program. She has rolling admission, lots of options for classes, and takes a wholly positive approach to training dogs. We have followed her recommendations and now that we are approaching week six, our puppy is actually pretty well behaved! She's not perfect, but I am aware of what I need to work on to change that (thanks to Judy), and I know it is within my power to change the behavior that I don't like by using the positive methods she teaches. She also offers a free socialization class for puppies younger than 18 weeks old. This is basically a class where you watch a bunch of adorable puppies play with each other and learn what is okay in terms of play behavior, what is not, and how to guide your dog toward a positive play experience. It is my favorite hour of the week because they are SO SO CUTE. I don't have photos from the formal class, but it is held in the same space. The pictures are all from socialization class. Highly recommend!

My puppy is happy to go there every time. She LOVES seeing familiar faces and the employees are pleasant and helpful. We have had to use them for last minute boarding and day care since we started and they are truly there for their clients. I know I can rely on them and they listen to any concerns I have. I took my puppy for intro grooming to another place and that service messed up her cut. Brianna, the groomer at Gemini, is currently helping to get her shape back and she has had detailed conversations with me on how she will help. My puppy is looking adorable again. Trainers there are very detailed and knowledgeable with what they do and how your puppy responds. I think I may go for additional training. Overall, I'm very pleased and would highly recommend them. Now I understand why their evaluation process is so detailed. They truly care about their dogs.

My only complaint would be that the Gemini dog campus...yes, you read right...I said CAMPUS, is…read moreginormous and it is easy to get lost while trying to find the campus facility. I highly recommend Gemini alerts new clients of exactly where their facility is located apart from their training facilities beforehand. I spent way too much time trying to locate the office and ended up being late. But, staff here were so nice and understanding! My dog was groomed perfectly and she was truly cared for from that I observed. The grooming session was fast (under 2 hours) and I was notified right away when Movha was ready to be picked up. Mocha was really happy when I came to get her! She was jumping and said by to her groomer (who was very friendly and kind). I will definitely be back to have Mocha groomed here again! Thanks so everything, Gemini!

The methods and habits taught by Terry and Mike are invaluable. I was able to break Iris (my dog) of unwanted behaviors quickly (IE being rough with little dogs, console surfing in the car, unwanted chewing, etc) in a matter of weeks. With this training Iris can reallllly be a DOG. I don't mind if we are on walks in the woods and she takes off after a bunny or something, because I know I can recall her and have her sitting at my side within seconds if she strays to far. I can take her to unfenced yards and she will maintain a close proximity to me. She is kind of a dream now. I see other peoples dogs at the dog park, and they can't recall, can't break them of being to rough. The difference is night and day. I cannot recommend this class enough. Anyone who is interested in an obedient and super happy pup should give Canine Magic a shot.

The…read moreperson on staff this evening was utterly disinterested in us and our dogs and we should have known better when we felt as if we intruded on her conversation in the parking lot upon arrival. The staff person gave no instruction or guidelines whatsoever and simply sat by as we tried to figure the place out. One of the more offensive moments came when we were told "I think your time is about up anyway" after one of the staff person's friends entered with her two dogs and we had no idea what the parameters of us being there were. What, just get out now? We felt because we had never been before and weren't familiar with the place that we were unwelcome at this exclusive club. At least our dogs didn't mind the attitude. Don't waste your time.
