The system that Gabe used with her is so clear and straightforward in one day I didn't recognize her. After two weeks Maggie was dialed in watching and listening and following her cues.

RSK9 provides support for the life of your pet. Gabe promised me that he would make sure I didn't fail. Just call them. You'll be glad you did. I am

I don't even know where to begin in complimenting K-9 Companions!…read more Puppy Jack went off to his boot camp on the way to being my service dog in March 2023. He was a typical, crazy Australian Shepherd puppy and came back a well-adjusted, attentive, obedient, and magnificent adult dog. Imagine sending your messy son who never made his bed, kept his room a mess, and didn't get stuff done. Then imagine having that son home from boot camp with the clean room, tight sheets, and helping around the house. Well, I got the dog version of that when Jack came back. Once I know more specifics about what Jack will need to learn to help with my condition as it progresses, I will get him back to K-9 Companions!

When I adopted my dog May this past March I knew I had my work cut out for me. She was a feral…read morecountry dog who didn't know how to walk on a leash or sit. I bought a personal training package from Instinct and the trainer came to my home to train my dog and me. It was such a good decision. Both May and I really liked working with the trainer Lauren S. Her approach and tone were awesome. I knew from the first appointment with her that it was going to be great. I'd been trying to figure out how to get May to sit for weeks. Lauren got her sitting in a session. All in all I think we had 9 sessions with Lauren. In that time we learned a lot and have been applying it. My relationship with my dog is so much better because of Instinct. The thing I will caution people against is having unrealistic expectations of your dog and the trainer. If you go in with the desire to make your dog a unquestioningly obedient robot then you will be disappointed. Just focus on the over all quality and happiness of your dog's life

We are so glad we called Instinct! We had a bad experience with a previous trainer, but the second…read moreAyelet got on the phone with us we knew we were in good hands. We were even sent an hour long questionnaire about our dog's history/health/behavior/etc. prior to training. Y'all...they care so much! We have a 1 year old rescue pup who's dog reactive, and we've been pretty much unable to take him on walks or near other dogs at all. Jenna helped us overcome all of this and we could not be more grateful. She coached us on how to slowly warm him up to lots of different scenarios- we even had a playdate with another dog today with no issues! His reactivity will be something we'll continue to work on for months, but I can't tell you how relieved we are to have gained some confidence with it. Jenna really helped put things into perspective and helped us understand how to read our dog and take things at his pace. You really can't rush progress like this, and I love that Instinct doesn't promise "quick, fast, easy results" because those are not effective or even possible. We would absolutely do this again if given the chance, booking with Instinct was a game changer.

Where to start... my wife and I are extremely happy in choosing Tim to train our now 8-month-old…read moreGerman Shepard. She was overly timid, had separation anxiety, and basically ran the household. Tim came out for an eval, and within 10 minutes and a few tips, we could see a huge change in her. He spent nearly 2 hours with us explaining everything he does, what his background is etc. We felt extremely comfortable with him and decided to do the 4-week board and train. 4 weeks... sounds like a long time and we did miss her. Tim keeps you updated with Texts, Pictures and even videos on his website( password protected ). When Tim says the relationship between trainer and dog is the most important part of the training process, he means it. You can see the bond he built with our dog and she trusted him throughout the process. We got to see her after 2 weeks, to help with us missing her. We saw the process and it was amazing. Tim was excellent to work with, he gave us great instructions to take home along with a 3-hour long session when we picked her up, even gives a DAILY TYPED PROGRESS REPORT!. Did not expect that. I cannot recommend Tim enough. Every person I know that has had any sort of dog issue and is looking for a trainer... he is who I recommend. We do still have work to do as owner and dog, but she will learn as we go. It's not just training the dog... but the owners as well. Thank you Tim for the change you have brought to our girl. She is confident happy and a joy to walk, train with. She even listens to our 5 year old son!.

From the owner: FlatTop K9's style of training first starts with building a relationship with the dog! Once a bond…read moreand trust is established, then the training begins. A dog (just like a child) needs to be told when they're doing something right, and when they're doing something wrong because even in the dog world, everything is about choices. How do I reward or motivate the dog, Food and Play. When your dog finishes their stay with us, I will teach you how to be successful with your dog. With that being said, the training never stops! You, the owner must be committed in order for your dog to be successful long term!

ZERO STARS!! I had been taking my dog to be bathed at…read morePetsmart for years. Not just the current dog but previous ones. I pay to got the bath and LUXURY The luxury packages is 45$ above the cost of the bath. It includes chosen shampoo, nail grinding, ear cleaning, teeth brushing,nose and paw balm among other things. It used to take 1-2 hours (she's 80lbs) to accomplish these tasks. When I went to drop her off this past Friday I said " you guys haven't been grinding her nails and I really need that done" the person at intake said "oh that's extra did you want to pay for that?" I was astonished! How can you work a job and not know what procedures go with what packages? I said it's included with the luxury package she said oh I'll make a note ( make a note? Make a note to do what you're supposed to???). Then I said her ears have been coming back dirty and she hasn't had the fat folds of her stomach washed thoroughly. She sighed that oh you're one of THOSE people sighs and as she was taking my dog back she said we close today at 5 pm so don't be any later than 4:30 picking her up. What? The hours say close at 8 but that didn't matter her appointment was at 3 so 1 1/2 should be ok to get it done. 37 minutes later they call and say she's done 37 minutes !! 37 !!! I just stopped at the front and asked for the manager and told her all of the above information. She assured me she wanted to make me happy my dog was brought to the front nails had not been ground, I stuck my finger in her ear and it came back waxy and dirty and I did this in front of the manager,she SAW the nasty I said I was not happy and normally don't like to complain but I knew that 37 minutes was not enough time to bathe her and take care of her. The manager said she would arrange for the things to be taken care of and to let my dog go back. Unbeknownst to all of them I am proficient in reading lips due to being deaf. I saw/heard them talking about how I was just being a Karen, that I probably wanted the service free of charge, they told each other they had done the ear cleaning and had done nail grinding. I was FURIOUS. It took them ten minutes and by this time I was so angry I said I would never NEVER use Petsmart for any service. I took my dog home and cleaned her ears (picture of cotton balls I used to clean her so called twice cleaned ears following

Went in yesterday to see the cats they have for Petsmart Charities because I've been wanting to…read moreadopt a cat. The lady I asked if she can help us or find another work who can help automatically starts off with an attitude "well how old are you? You need to be over 21". I tell her my boyfriend & my age and she throws one of the fish decor into a bucket and says "well I'll be right with you". We go over where the cats are while we wait. She opens the door tells us to sit and she'll take the cats out. There are three adorable orange kitties Antonio, Mateo and Nico that I've been stalking online & excited to meet them. She struggling to get them out and decides to just grab the litter box that they're laying in and toss it on the floor so we can see them. All three kitties are scared, nervous and crying. She tells us "I can barley touch them because I'm pregnant". If that's the case why didn't she grab another associate that ISN'T pregnant to help us? Obviously the three orange cats aren't in the mood to play or be around humans. She grabs the litter box and puts them back in there cage. I then ask if we can play with Lorrain, and she kinda huffs about it and grabs her and hands her over to me. Lorrain was a bit scared but slowly warming up. Not even 3 minutes pass and the worker told my boyfriend and I "ok I have to put her away before my boss b*txhes at me". My boyfriend and I were both taken off guard by that comment. 1. Why is there a time limit for customers getting to see, and play with these cats? Knowing that that they can potentially be adopted. 2. Why did this lady think it would be appropriate to use horrible language around us? I was so disappointed and heartbroken. Prior to this we had spent over $100 at PetSmart buying cat toys, litter, litter boxes, food, bowls, and etc. I'm so disappointed in PetSmart and their workers.

After just our consultation with them, Lucy was 100% better on the leash and now she loose leash walks everywhere. I also really appreciated that they customized the training for us and for our dog. Lucy has a lot of idiosyncrasies and her behavior didn't always make sense, but Lauren and Jim worked with us to find something that worked specifically for our dog and our situation. Not only were they great at helping us figure out what worked for our dog, but they were honestly just a great time to be around. Training with an energetic dog can be frustrating but they were always extremely helpful and just fun to be around. 10/10 would recommend to anyone in need of dog training services!
