This place is great. I got my baby Dude chipped at their chip event. It was very quick.

Relaxation space to hang out with the dogs

Great plaza area (indoor outdoor) space. You don't have to worry about the weather. Great for dog events.

I hardly ever leave reviews, but I want to give hope to anyone who is struggling with their dog and…read morefeeling frustrated and helpless. The first year with my golden retriever, Luka, was extremely hard. He was a mouthy dog who had zero boundaries at home or outside. He would get excited or frustrated and grab/bite onto my shoes or clothes daily. Walking him became an impossible task because he was extremely dog-reactive, and he dragged me a couple of times while trying to chase another dog. Walking him also became a two-person job, with someone always on the lookout for other dogs so we could turn the other way. He also began to resource guard and snapped at my dad twice.. I had already spent thousands on another trainer and didn't have much success. I began to feel like this was just what life with Luka would be like forever. It got to the point where I felt scared of him, and the life I was giving him out of that fear wasn't fair to him. So I decided to try and get help one last time. I found Lori's page and after reading the reviews I became hopeful again. I took Luka in for an evaluation, and Lori recommended their board-and-train program. I can't thank Chelsea and Lori enough for everything they've done. I've learned so much about Luka, how to manage different situations, and how to better understand his behavior. We had training lessons throughout his board-and-train stay and afterward, because we are the ones who need most of the training! Chelsea did an amazing job with Luka. At home, Luka is unrecognizable in the best way. We can actually go on adventures outside without being terrified that we won't be able to handle him. Those who knew Luka before his stay and see him now always comment on how well he is doing. I cannot recommend Lori Hamilton's Dog training enough to anyone who feels like they've tried everything and is feeling discouraged. I am so thankful because it finally feels like Luka and I can start living life and enjoying everything around us.

Lori helped transform our 1.5-year-old golden retriever Ruben from an 87# spirited, jumping, land…read moreshark to a calm, obedient family member. He was an anxious, leash pulling, cat chasing, chewing, biting and jumping-- hiding inside an adorable shell. We started in Lori's group class, then did private one on one training with her and ultimately 4 weeks of board and train at her facility. She trained us and trained him and ultimately transformed life at home. Our 3 cats are now able to be in the same room as him. Our visitors no longer have him standing up on their chest in exuberant greeting. We can relax and have dinner without Ruben trying to eat our feet or running zoomies around the room. We can walk him without having our arms ripped out of our sockets. He is calm around other dogs. He is crate trained and easily goes to sleep at night. He has his own treadmill and works out twice a day, in addition to our daily walks. We been to Pack walks with Lori and 15 other dogs, all walking obediently through the Pruneyard shopping center. The dogs get to work on socialization and good manners on these field trips. Lori came to our house and we staged a meal with a visitor. It really helped us learn how to keep him on his best behavior during meal time with a guest!!! Our first year with Ruben was really tough, he was not the mellow golden retriever we anticipated. Lori's teaching changed everything. She provided the methods and the tools to help us have the best outcome and a relaxed home life with our beautiful dog; more than we ever expected!!!

The program even includes a bath!! They do themed enrichment programs every month, which is fun and rewarding for the pups! Our little pup Sugaree just completed the induction program, and she has already gained so much confidence and good behavior. I love that Dawna's training business (Happy Tails to You) is connected with Canine Corral so everything she's learning is carried through in her interactions with the team. The team is so caring and you can tell they truly love the dogs they're caring for.

Other places that we tried weren't successful in addressing our pup's anxiety and social issues. I'm so glad that we discovered Canine Corral. The staff there are well trained and they have good processes to keep things running smoothly. Our pup gets excited as we drive into the parking lot and she greets the staff with fast tail wags and licking! Those are positive behaviors that are so apparent and cannot be denied. We also utilized Happy Tails To You Dog Training with custom training. Dawna knows her stuff and the lessons that we had helped us with challenges that we were having at home. I highly recommend Canine Corral/Happy Tails To You Dog Training for anyone who needs doggie daycare or boarding.

We've been going to this Quality Pet Spot for years and it's one the best pet stores in the South Bay, in my opinion. Staff smile and warmly greet you the moment you step inside. Butter my pup is always well taken care of and I see the dedication. Two of his favorite groomers are Tina and Stephanie! He always smiles every time he comes out from his session with them, which speaks a lot about the quality of care here. I totally entrust my puppy with them! This store is also conveniently located next to a pizza place, a water supply store, Smart & Final Extra, Target, Home Depot, library, 24 hour Fitness and USPS post office! So literally you can run all your needed errands while waiting for your pup being pampered up ! I also love how neat and tidy this store is, albeit it being a grooming place. Aisles of dog supplies are intelligently organized, making it easier to look for stuff. They often have free samples for your dog too. I trust my dog's instincts! He loves this place and so do I. Highly recommend!

I'm writing this review absolutely devastated after having to put my 6-year-old Doberman down…read more From about 8 months old, we dealt with ongoing health issues--severe skin problems and hair loss despite a raw diet and trying every supplement possible. After spending thousands of dollars on tests, bloodwork, medications, and vet visits, we finally learned he had hypothyroidism--something that absolutely should be screened for in Dobermans, as it is hereditary. Even after diagnosis, the medications came with their own side effects, and we were constantly trying to manage and minimize those while keeping him comfortable. Our family went through so much emotionally, on top of watching him struggle physically, and we spent roughly $10,000 in vet bills just trying to help him. A month ago, his hypothyroidism led to a grand mal seizure. Our strong 86-pound dog was reduced to a panicked, shaking, terrified puppy. His medications stopped being effective, and we endured several sleepless nights as his condition worsened. His final night was heartbreaking. He had multiple grand mal seizures--falling, becoming bloodied, foaming at the mouth, urinating uncontrollably, and paddling his feet. We were bent over him, crying, trying to comfort him and tell him he was safe. I am angry and heartbroken over a life cut far too short--something that could have been prevented with more responsible breeding practices. He was the best boy: incredibly smart, loving, and deeply cherished. I only wish I had looked more closely at the negative reviews from other heartbroken owners who also had to say goodbye to their dogs far too early due to negligent breeding.

I lowered my rating for two reasons. I am disabled and it is difficult to sit on low seating. There was no accessible seating in the entry or play area. I went outside to sit on a bench and a woman lit up a cigarette. A steady stream of smoke was blowing in my direction. I finally told her that I am allergic. She did not care. It was her smoking break (right outside the entrance) and that she was having a bad day. She continued to smoke. She told me that I should be inside with the kittens. I got up to go to my car determined to write this review and told her that she should consider accessible seating. The kittens were admirable though!

Compared to other places I've visited, some of the kitties here had more attitude. We shared room 1 with two other girls. They were slightly frightened by the orange kitty because it kept making hissing noises. The kitty also got into a cat fight with two other kitties. Cost $20 per person with reservations. This place is quite small, so they don't have room for you to hang out before your appointment. It's best to arrive on time. 50 minutes passed by quickly. I would visit again in the future.
