My young Aussie and I have taken several obedience classes at Southcoast Dog Training & Care. Each…read moretime, my dog Niko has become more engaged, obedient, and eager to please. The "Pop Up" class - Obility - is so much fun. The agility equipment is arranged (differently each time) around the large yard and the dogs (and people) enjoy the challenge and novelty of going over and through all of the jumps, balance boards, and tunnel. Patti and Sandy have been great. Unlike other trainers I've had, they demonstrate exercises with the dogs in the class. This is so much more helpful to observe than the trainers' fully trained dog's demonstration. Sandy and Patti are very observant about the behavior of both the dogs in the class as well as the people handling their dogs. I've learned a lot and Niko loves it. We continue classes for fun and enrichment even though he has a really reliable recall.

I almost don't even know where to start with sharing my gratitude for Sandy. My 17-year-old…read moredaughter has a one year old black lab who has been in service dog training with Sandy since she was 8 weeks old. Sandy approaches all of her sessions with us with honesty, empathy, and kindness. To say she goes above and beyond is an understatement. She takes my daughter's phone calls when she has questions, is willing to make house calls for training "emergencies", has filmed videos for my daughter's high school to help prepare students for having a service dog in school, and she has become a true friend of our family. Sandy also genuinely LOVES our dog, which we can see with every session. This puppy has honestly saved my daughter's life, and none of this would have been possible without Sandy. If you are looking for a trainer who truly loves dogs and who will take the time to genuinely get to know you as a human being, Sandy is your trainer. I cannot recommend her enough.

I have been using Tails n' Trails for about two years now for my pup Edison and I've yet to be…read moredisappointed. Services are well priced and the staff is knowledgeable and professional. For the past few months "we" have been walking with Calia and her amazing companion Jasper. Not only does Edison come home happy, exhausted, and, socialized..I swear he comes home just a little more well behaved. Their ability to work with your schedule, be flexible, and simply just go above and beyond is what prompted this review. About a week and a half ago my mother broke her fibula and ankle, sweeping her off her feet for at least 2 months. I contacted Calia after 5pm on a Saturday and before my mother was even discharged, Cali was able to rework my walks and help get my mothers dogs (new clients) on the schedule for walks and check ins. She brought a sense of calm to a very hectic situation; I was incredibly grateful for that. We will be furever part of the Tails n Trails family.

I highly recommend this shelter and easily give it 10 stars!!!

I loved our original vet up until the pandemic when we had a situation that felt very abrasive and rude, and I think about it often. After that we switched and will use two other vets from here and I've been super happy again. It is always an expensive visit, but I know my dog is cared for when there.

Unfortunately this experience will stay with me the rest of my life. Yes my cat was 17 years old…read more Yes I understand he wasn't a patient at this vet. This was on a Saturday. His vet was closed. I also have a very delicate/difficult situation where I'm unable to travel. Time wasnt on his side. Time is precious and every second counts during an emergency situation. The Capeway was open and and I'll never understand getting turned down when I first called in a panic with an emergency situation. An emergency is urgent. Even if they went fully equipped for the whole situation why couldn't have they said yes bring him in right away? Maybe he would have had a shot to live. Maybe he could have been stabilized as i was getting in contact with someone who could have then drove him to the emergency hospital. Now here I was wasting time calling other places. In a panic my mom called my aunt and asked for help after I did. She called this place as she googled who was open. So after about 15 minutes wasted they said yes bring him in when my aunt called. Why couldn't it have been yes right away? Are all vets like this? Is this the system? Why can't vets take emergency situations? Especially in my situation where i told them i was unable to get to the emergency hospital. How can someone in this field turn down the opportunity to save a life? Just a lot of unfortunate situations in this world. I wasn't expecting to bring him in for free. Ready to pay, you beg and this is how the world works? At the end of the day at least I know what illness he had and why he died. I'm honestly am having a hard time putting everything into words and how I feel. I'm sure as people read this it may get misunderstood and that's okay. In my world this is unacceptable and pets and their owners deserve better, at least in my world. Sammy did have an appointment with his vet on Tuesday, but unfortunately he passed on Saturday here. The bottom line is my cat is breathing out of his mouth can you please take him in? Answer was no. Wasted time then said yes. Unacceptable! I really really wished the answer was yes right away, then whatever happened then at least I would of had more of a peace of mind. I would have felt that they tried. That's all I wanted.

We tried group training with no success. We were just looking for a way to gently start socializing her. Tim has been a life saver! Mellow warmed up to him right away and gets so excited whenever she she's Tim's car pull into the drive way. Tim has given us lots of suggestions and we have noticed a lot of improvement in Mellows behavior. Tim was even nice enough to bring both of our pups to our wedding 2 weeks ago so they could celebrate with us at the reception for a while! It was so special for me to be able to get some photos with them on our big day. They were a huge hit with the guests too! Tim brought our pups home afterward and my husband and I had a great time knowing our girls were in good hands with Tim. We look forward to continuing working with Tim on socializing Mellow. It's so good to know that we have someone who we can call if we ever need someone to check in on the dogs or pet sit for a few hours. Thanks Tim!
