We owe Anya our deepest gratitude. We recently purchased a Chinese Crested Powder puff. She came to…read moreus only 10 weeks old. She was our first family dog. We had previously only owned cats. We were overwhelmed in the first 24 hrs at home with the chewing and jumping and chasing the cats. Walking her only seemed to make her behavior worse. We thought we got a "bad dog" and wanted to exchange her for a "good dog". It turns out there are no bad dogs. Just bad owners. We now have a 16 week old puppy that is very obedient and walks are so pleasant. We are proud to show her off to friends, family, and strangers. Anya has a very deep understanding of dogs and their needs. She does what works. She does not waste your time. We highly recommend Anya to train any dog! Thank you Anya! The Schneiders

Dog Gone Worth It truly lives up to its name!…read more I had a great experience bringing my dog here. The grooming was excellent -- my pup looked amazing and clearly felt comfortable with the staff. I appreciated how well she was cared for and never felt rushed to pick her up. The pricing was very fair and within the expected market range. You can tell they genuinely care about the animals and the clients. I highly recommend setting up an appointment -- you won't be disappointed! -- Michael C.

He was a complete nightmare to walk. Lunged at cars and people and animals in a very aggressive way...and he's strong. In addition to other commands, our dog learned to walk better than any dog I've ever owned, pretty much after second class. It's actually pleasant to take him walking now! Thai may be pricey, but in my experience, it was worth every penny because the alternative would be suffering for 14-15 years with a dog who doesn't listen. Jim and katie were fantastic trainers. I couldn't be happier with my decision. I have a brand new dog. Not to mention we get to continue group training for two years all included in the price. If you are on the fence, stop hesitating and do it!

We met Jennifer while she was helping foster a cat we wanted to adopt. Several months later when we…read moreadopted our dog and discovered his nearly debilitating separation anxiety, we asked her for help. She came to our home and helped train him in some basic commands (turns out you *can* teach an old dog new tricks), as well as training us to recognize signs of stress in him and helping us cope with his anxiety. My fiancée had never had a dog before, and even when it looked like we would have to return Tank to the rescue, Jennifer reassured us that things just take time. Finally, through a combination of training with Jennifer and some puppy Prozac (also at Jennifer's suggestion), Tank is a happy, healthy, well-adjusted dog. Also, when we adopted a second cat who did NOT get along with the first cat, Jennifer taught us how to give both cats enough reassurance and sense of safety to make them comfortable with each other. As I write this they're playing together and chasing each other up and down the hall (for such small cats they make a LOT of noise). All of this is to say that without Jennifer we would not be the family that we are. She brought us our first cat, helped us rescue and rehabilitate our dog, and made sure our second cat was safe in our home. We are very grateful to her and would 100% recommend her business to anyone in need of assistance with any pet related issues. She has always been there for us to answer questions or offer support and we can't thank her enough.

Jennifer has helped me integrate a new dog into my pack and gave each of the 5 dogs individualized attention and assessments.

She brought her out with her feet completely soaked in blood. Quick stop was not stopping the bleeding from her nails and she told me 4 people held her down while she just cut as short as she could with no mind of quicking her. After trying to get the bleeding to stop and failing over and over again,I had to go to the vet next door and use silver nitrate sticks and hydrogen peroxide to stop the bleeding and clean her feet. Every single one of her nails were packed with quick-stop, meaning they cut every single nail too short. My almost brand new car with cloth seats looks like a murder scene. I got ahold of the manager and she told me she could not help me with my car or give me a refund. After being told I need to do better at desensitizing my dog and touch her feet (which I do, she is a rescue and I am able to cut them at home) she said that she is not responsible for my car. She refunded me the tip I gave (because you have to pay before) and the cost of the nail trim. My car will need professional detailing and my dog will never have a good experience with a nail trim ever again. I work in the vet field so I know a few things. Never would I ever hold a dog down and quick every single nail as short as she cut my dogs nails. Never would I send a client home in that state. I am very very angry with no solution made.
