    Sue came to our home to assess our one-and-a-half-year-old German Shepherd and instructed us on how to work with our dog. She believes that as long as we follow her directions, our Shepherd does not need to sign up for more classes. It's been a month since Sue visited us, and Rex has made significant progress. I sincerely appreciate Sue's expertise and professionalism.

    This is a long over due review for Sue and Perfect Manners Dog Training. we brought Wynni home in early January of 2022, While she is a sweetie, she was also a Australian Cattle Dog mix that inherited 100% of ACD energy. We went through a month of puppy training but it didn't seem to help us getting her to behave as she should be during our walks and around the family. After some research online, I decide to call Perfect Manner to help us out. Sue came to our home and worked with us for an hour and got us on track. Her method was direct and simple. Her instructions were clear and easy to follow and we saw some improvements right away. Since then, we've followed her method when training Wynni and things have progressed nicely. Wynni is now 2 and is doing great (she does get a little sassy but we love it when she does). We want to thank Sue and recommend anyone to reach out to Perfect Manner Dog Training if they need help with training their dog.

I have a very special little dog who…read moreneeds a lot of training and attention to help overcome her behavioral challenges and they not only understood what to do immediately, we've been making steady progress since we first met everyone. The convenient Wheaton location of the facility is great for daycare and they also allow for half-day daycare too. Very flexible scheduling. When I pick my dog up, I can tell that she's received personalized attention from the staff and that she has been well cared for. Often she's been able to work one-on-one with a staff member for nearly all of her half-day session. We also attend the group classes which are incredibly unique and let my dog build up practice interacting with other dogs in a way that reinforce new, good behaviors. My neighbors are thrilled with the progress almost as much as I am - my dog no longer automatically barks at everyone outside now and is able to make new friends. The in home training we did originally was incredibly valuable to get us started on the right foot. We need to do that again very soon! Is it the least expensive daycare and/or training in the area? No. But it is ABSOLUTELY worth it. When I leave my dog in the care of The Canine's Voice I know that she's going to be safe, loved, and will learn a few things while she's there. The classes are incredibly valuable too. The results speak for themselves.

She had plenty of tips and techniques and it was nice having her visit the home for the sessions to see how he is in that environment. After several mixed purpose sessions I feel like we're on the path to success, maybe. We hope .

They did a great job, my dog is napping on the floor now, so this is beneficial to the dog's health and any peace and quiet you might need at home! They also sent him home with a report on how he behaved. We've only had him a week, so it was so helpful to hear how he interacted with other people and dogs without us around. We were told it would take 3-4 hours for them. I made an appointment that morning, and I didn't understand how grooming could possibly take that long. At first I looked forward to the time I'd have to run errands. But I'm a woman who enjoys hair and make-up, but even a day at the salon doesn't take that long! When I arrived to pick him up, I realized that there's a "holding" area for the dogs. I don't like the idea of my dog having sat in a cage, waiting to be groomed. I'd understand it if I were a walk-in that there would be a wait. For the $25 price, it's totally worth it. And my dog seems totally fine, even if he did have to wait in a cage for a little while. The employees were all really nice to my dog too. Maybe that's why I've been so turned off by the customer service - people work at Petsmart because they like PETS and aren't people persons? I will definitely go back. I just don't recommend expecting people to be readily available if you are looking to purchase new items for your dog and are completely clueless, like I was.

They could also confirm by looking up via phone number connected to the PetSmart membership. I was told by manager Amy Gunderman that I had to make the return back at the original purchase store....odd. I have returned exchange-purchased items at different locations in the past, as a matter of fact, within the last 2 weeks, so why would no other store not have this issue or problem... oh, got poor customer service. They can't even uphold their own corporate policy. I won't be visiting this Location ever again.

    We adopted a female pit bull who came with underlying issues we didn't even realize. We got her…read moreover the holidays when there was always someone home. When we returned to our normal work schedules we would leave her home for 6-7 hours a day. She seemed to be great in her crate or in the kitchen during the day but after a few days she started to wreak havoc in the house. Breaking out of her crate, two couches, tons of poop, and chewed window sills later, we reached out to Kendra and Scott for help. She had separation anxiety and needed to be taught how to be confident in herself again. Our pup went to the two week board and train program and came out a brand new girl. She was confident. She was calm. She was no longer anxious. We can now walk her without a leash if we needed to. She comes when called. Most importantly she doesn't break out of her crate, and finds it as a safe place now. Her training saved her and saved us. Our girl loves being able to visit Kendra every now and then and we have the confidence of boarding her with someone we trust. Someone who plays with our pup. She's not just locked in a crate all day. We are forever grateful for Kendra and Scott. Every single time someone asks how we got our girl to listen to us, or comments on how well behaved she is, we always tell them about Canine Peace of Mind. Any dog we rescue from here on our will take a two week vacation with Kendra and get the training they deserve. We have their advice for life too! Dog eating the cat poop? Called Kendra. New baby coming home? Texted Kendra. Need to make a part of the yard off limits? Kendra was there to answer all of our questions. We highly recommend the training and all services available after training is completed. The training is best thing we could have done for our girl Lola and our family.

We were dealing with food & high value treat /toy aggression, leash & barrier aggressions, and their coming on call (especially when chasing rabbits were more fun situations than coming to mom & dad) was unreliable at best. Enter Kendra at Canine Peace of Mind. Kendra worked with us on the best board & train program for each of them, customizing their 'stay' schedules based on progress and behavioral shifts. We sent both our dogs to CPM from Sept 2018 - Oct 2018. Kendra knows how tough it is to leave your 'kids' for that extended period of time (because she's done it too!) and made sure to send us picture and video updates on how each of them were progressing. Seeing the quick process made the distance so worth it. Fast forward to picking our pups up on handover day and the difference was remarkable. But it was on us to take those skills & discipline home with us. A couple months into having them home (Jan of this year), we recognized we still needed help (user error!) and Kendra did a house call, free of charge, to help us in reigning in & tightening up their training & our/their behaviors. What an immense help as we saw immediate change and are continuing to build that owner/dog trust together. Here's the from / to for our pups and our family: - From never being able to walk in public on a leash for fear of lashing out against another dog (even when across the street) to walking twice a day at heeling position for 2-3 miles a day, despite what we encounter. - From not having reliable recalls in the least, to trusting our dogs (and because we have grown into much more confident dog owners, trusting ourselves) to have them off leash. We love to go get the mail, take out the trash, etc. together with our dogs. - From breakfast & dinner times being HORRIBLE experiences due to fighting, low growling, & crate checking to having peaceful feeding times. - From having no control during high energy times to having a tool & command for them to go to a dedicated 'place' in any room to calm down and give each other (and us) space. I could go on. But what I would say is if you are encountering any of the above issues, please consider Canine Peace of Mind and their board & train programs. As working professionals that knew we didn't have the time or expertise to dedicate in order to get our pups where they needed to be, we are so happy we did. It has transformed the time we get to all spend together from dread to time that we look forward to because it's happy & enjoyable (which is why we all got these guys in the first place, am I right?). They also offer day care & boarding. We have taken them up on boarding a few times as we know that they get a bit more attention than any standard boarding and they are held accountable to their training just as much there as they are at home.

The training sessions were very generic and we did not feel like any progress was being made with our dog. We did not reach out for further sessions after the first few but circled back after a few months hoping for a different experience. After booking an appointment we were notified that the only trainer for this company in our area was leaving the business. Now we have spent $2,000 for a lifetime trainer that we can no longer use. We have reached out to corporate for assistance but no one will respond to us. Overall I would not recommend this company unless you are looking for basic training. I do not think all behavioralist trainers are created equal and this company is not providing a true behaviorist trainer. Certifications don't necessarily translate to quality. Couple that with poor customer service and you have what appears to be a money grab from customers that are genuinely looking for help in a time of need.
