I deeply regret bringing my dog to Holiday Barn Pet Resorts. During our stay, I noticed serious…read moreconcerns about the level of care and cleanliness. My dog became extremely ill after being boarded here, and sadly, we lost them shortly after. When I asked questions, I felt the staff was dismissive and not transparent about what happened. I also noticed several other dogs coughing during pickup, which raised serious concerns about possible illness spreading among pets. A close friend of mine used to work here and shared that some dogs were handled very rough but the owners son. Popping the dogs prong to rough, yanking them onto the grooming table, shoving them into the kennels, kicking them and more , which only makes me more concerned about what happened behind the scenes for my pup.

The staff…read morewas incredibly nice and let me go back to the cat building to make sure my baby was all situated. It was a quite spacious kennel for the price! Additionally (more important to me) it was incredibly clean throughout the resort. The staff has a very organized way of ensuring your pet gets food they need that fits with their routine and also weighs your pet throughout the stay (BONUS: cat food is free). If I ever need to leave town again, I can rest assured that my cat would have a great place to stay here.

The people here are absolutely wonderful humans who took such great care of my companion. They all seemed so caring and knowledgeable in regards to proper care and handling. When I picked him up, he didn't feel grimy. He didn't smell bad. He didn't want to leave. I absolutely recommend this place if you need some warm hearted and wonderful folks to look after one of your loved ones.

All shots are required and vet records. The place was so clean. Smelled clean as well. The staff there is so nice and personable. Understood my lengthy good bye. I couldn't leave her personal blanket but I understand why and they gave her clean blankets every day. She even had turkey dinner with the fixings for Thanksgiving! I'd definitely take her there again. She was so clean and happy at pickup.

I'm someone who brought my dog to learn the intricacies of basic and intermediate obedience, as I've owned dogs before that were great companions; but never took the step to give them formal obedience classes. Emily and Daniel have helped me in seeing the small things that make a big difference, and helped my 9 month-old puppy become a model canine citizen. I recommend everyone I know to these two :) I get so many compliments on how well behaved my girl is, and I always bring DLOS up as to why.

I can't praise Ashley and Calm K9 enough for turning my dog life around. I adopted my 5.5 year old…read morePug/Chihuahua mix from a rescue back in February after she was surrendered by her previous owner. She was incredibly timid, anxious, and didn't know even the most basic command. Sit, for instance, was next to impossible. She would lock her back legs if you tried to guide her little butt to the floor, refusing to do it because she had no idea what was going on. Fast forward to a month out of the Board & Train with Ashley. She sits. She stays. We don't use a leash on walks anymore. She stays right by my side on walks or within an arm's length in front or behind me, constantly checking to make sure I'm still close every few seconds. At every curb she sits. I used to have to tell her, but now she just knows to sit, and not to move until I tell her "come". The best part for all of this, however, is that it's all a result of her overall confidence being boosted by knowing all of these new skills. She used to be super skittish and bark at people, jump when cars passed by, and freak out. Every person who walked near us on the street she would lose her little dog-mind over. Now she not only glides right past them, but if they're friendly and she sees that I'm ok with it, she'll wag her tail and allow them to approach (assuming I've given her/the person permission). She actually walks better and is more calm off-leash, which is also a huge advantage for me now that it's getting cold because I can keep my hands in my pockets. I still do bring a leash in my pocket just in case, but I haven't run into a situation where I've had to use it once. Lastly, I was really apprehensive about using an e-collar. Not only because I thought it was going to be cruel, but because of how big the thing looks on my 10lb. dog! I can honestly say that the brand of collar they have you purchase is so adjustable with it's settings that she's never shown any sign of it hurting or even bothering her. She actually gets excited when I put it on her in the morning because she knows we're about to start our day and go for a walk! Calm K9 came recommended from a friend, and I think since seeing the positive change my dog has experienced as a result of the training I've recommended them to anyone and everyone who's interested in getting their dog towards a better place, behaviorally. Lastly, it's been amazing to feel what her being trained has does for me, mentally. With everything else one has to deal with in their day-to-day life, having a happy, calm, well-behaved and confident dog-companion has been overwhelmingly positive. A+ from me. Highly recommended.

Joanne McMahon is my dog Katie's trainer. Katie is seven and was re-homed to me by her senior…read moreowners who were unable to care for her anymore. Katie had picked up some bad habits that I hoped to get corrected. After unsuccessful tries by me, I found Joanne' company and promptly signed up. We are finished with a few of our training sessions but much progress has already been made. I am very happy and thrilled Jo can work with both Katie and me (it seems I need training more than Katie, as many dog owerns do!). Joanne has been very patient, never showing any sign of frustration, and never at a loss when Katie has difficulties. My knowledge base for working with Katie has expanded, making me more confident and successful. The skills Jo is teaching are precisely what I was hoping for. Katie and I are both happy to see Jo arrive for a training session. She tailor made our plan and listens very well. I highly recommend Joanne McMahon and 360 Animal Training and Behavior.
