From Yogi I wasn't…read morealways this proud 150-pound brindle Akita you see today. I was a scared, reactive dog when my human found me. I'd been abused, and later, after finally finding a safe home, someone broke in... and I was beaten again. I don't trust easily. I bark when I feel unsafe. I protect my space fiercely. I need distance from other dogs--not because I don't care, but because I care too deeply and don't know how to show it safely. But my human understood. They walk me on a 6' lead, often shortened to 2'. They sit on the ground beside me when I'm overwhelmed. They give me time, space, and safety to choose connection. That's how I learned how to say: "If I turn sideways and offer my shoulders or my butt... you can touch me." It's not much, but it's my way of saying "I trust you." And Justine listened. On October 4, 2023, Justine became my personal walker once a week. My human told her the truth--every challenge, every warning. She had every reason to walk away. But she didn't. She stayed. She followed my signals. She gave me 15 minutes. Now we do 30-minute walks once a week. She must really love me. Then, on January 2, 2024, I met Laura--and fate stepped in again. I didn't know she worked with Justine. Now I have two amazing humans who take me out twice a week. They get me. They give me time. And I give them my trust. To the anxious pups, the misunderstood cats, the shy reptiles, the quiet rodents hiding under blankets: You are NOT broken You are NOT too much You just need the right people who will wait for you to feel safe I'm Yogi. I'm a 150-pound Protection Fluff with a gentle heart and a rough past. I don't take love lightly--but once I give it, it's forever. Sloppy kisses and steady eyes, --Yogi From Yogi's Human: Yogi came into my life with scars--some I could see, many I couldn't. And while I helped him find safety... he helped me survive too. Watching him grow from panic to patience, from tension to trust, has been the most powerful journey of my life. We have good days, tough ones, and breakthroughs. But we keep going. To Justine and Laura--thank you for stepping into our lives. You didn't just help my dog. You made it possible for me to breathe a little easier too. To everyone walking a reactive pet journey: Progress isn't linear. Love is a process. You're not alone. #ReactiveDog #AkitaStrong #DogHealingJourney #AdoptDontShop #RescueToRecovery #BrindleAkita #DogLove #AnimalRescue #YogiTheAkita #ProtectionFluff #TraumaRecovery #ServiceDogInTraining #GentleGuardians #YouAreNotBroken #justintimedogwalking

Reviewing late but, better late than never…read more When I arrived at my appt the lady at the front desk advised that I had missed my appt by 45 minutes yet, the text message confirmation that I had received twice, specifically stated the time that I had showed up at. When I showed her the text message confirmation, she advised that they're having computer issues hence, why the appt confirmation was incorrect, and that I was still 45 minutes late and would not be able to have my dog groomed and would "waive" the cancellation fee. I asked if they could manage to fit my dog and thanks to the same computer issue, managed to fill another "no-show". All I wanted was a basic bath and an add-on package for my short-haired dog and what I received was a $400 vet bill thanks to the severe rash my dog broke out in due to the uncleanliness of the tools that they used to groom him. The poor guy was covered in blisters from head to toe and was extremely uncomfortable for days and when I let them know they told me that it was most likely a sensitivity to the shampoo even after I clearly stated that the results from the vet showed it was a bacterial infection caused by unsanitized tools. Would not recommend.

Mediocre cuts (and I'm being generous) Doesn't listen to clients requests Way overpriced Rude staff, extremely dismissive. Longevity in these types of businesses come from word of mouth, news of unfavourable experiences travel rather quickly within the dog community. I could handle so so cuts as all I want is a tidy dog, but the "I don't care about your business" attitude from the owner is a pretty tough pill to swallow.
