They will explain the medical issues as they do their exam so you have full understanding of what's going on and treatment protocol, and they don't push expensive treatments that they don't think are needed. As an added bonus, they are simply wonderful with the dogs and are certified fear free. The whole picture is considered at Fit For a Dog, not just an outlying lameness.

Based on my personal experience, I would not recommend working here. Communication from management…read morewas one of the biggest issues I encountered. I was told that my position change was temporary, but months later I was informed that the transition I had been expecting was no longer happening. I was never clearly informed of that change and only found out after asking for an update myself. I was also told that I was approved to work an 8:30-4:30 schedule moving forward. This schedule adjustment was discussed due to previous attendance write-ups related to delays with the city bus. My understanding was that this change would help ensure I could consistently arrive on time and avoid any further attendance-related disciplinary action. Then, without warning, I received an email informing me that my employment was being terminated. I was not given a clear explanation for the decision, which left me confused and frustrated. In my experience, there was a lack of transparency and consistent communication regarding decisions that affected my employment. I often felt unclear about expectations and changes to my role. Thankfully, I already had another job lined up. However, my experience left me disappointed and reinforced my concerns about how employees are communicated with and managed

I was super excited to learn that there is a pet store with reputable products in the local area…read more Employees at the store were super nice and attentive. Customers in the store were also nice folk. They had the healthier dog foods that PetSmart doesn't carry which attracted me to check out the store. Sadly, I found the prices there to be well above other family owned pet stores in other towns. The bag of dog food that I was looking for was $20 more than another store. The at home allergy test kit was $20 more than purchasing online which had free shipping. I would love to shop here, but it's worth driving to another town due to the amount of mark up at Braxton.

I am not new to having pets, but I am new to owning a dog. I recently adopted a dog from a rescue…read more The first few days, the dog was just shut down and would not come out of her crate. My husband and I worked with the dog for one month before adopting her. This was not behavior we had seen from her. I knew we would need obedience lessons, but I was going to wait a month or two before starting. I decided to start talking with a dog expert. But I also had a problem, I couldn't get her out of the crate...not even to potty. I really looked around. I read about Bark Busters and Donald Cohen's website. I like what I read! He believed in positive reinforcement! He had a regular stream of happy clients, and he would come to the house. We also talked on the phone and he was kind and sincerely interested in my situation. I have been working with Mr. Cohen for about 3 weeks now. The first visit, was eye opener for me because I learned all about dogs and how they communicate. He evaluated the situation with the dog and gave me a few basic "homework" assignments. I know it sounds trite, but everything I have learned has worked. I was able to get her out of her crate using information I learned on the first day. I have been working on basic commands with our dog, and again it works! Here is the amazing part...if I have a problem, I can call and discuss it with the trainer for immediate help and I am also able to quickly schedule an appointment to get hands on help. We have more work to do, but it has been going vey well!
