But the owner, Nicole, was really nice and truly love animals so that end of itself was reassuring. Upon drop off, the ladies at tailtopia again reassured us that he will be fine and we can email or call to check on him. We were overseas so we message tailtopia once a week thru FB messenger and they replied promptly with a photo of our fur baby. 30 days later, we picked up our dog without any issues and military discount came in handy. I cannot thank them enough for caring for our little one. Tailtopia is the only kennel in town that I trust.

I use them on special occasions and trust them with my baby. I was disappointed recently because prices had increased, and they discontinued the Military discount without my knowledge. So when I came back from celebrating my anniversary, I had a surprisingly increased bill of over $100.00 I had calculated from my fur baby's last visit. I wish I had been informed of this beforehand. The staff is still awesome with caring for pets.

Excellent dog training. Previously we spent a lot of money on other trainers, attempting to train…read moreour two friendly but overly exuberant labrador retrievers. After two years they had become too strong to take on walks, unruly at the vet and a bit out of control, wanting to chase or bark at everything. We came to Knightwatch K9 for help. During the initial evaluation, the dogs pulled hard to get after cats walking around and they were hard to control. After the first full day of training, we were so surprised that our big guy shared his bed with a chicken, and both pups were ignoring the cats that walked nearby. When we got our dogs home that first day and began practicing what they and we had been taught, it was the first time ever we could walk them on a loose leash. When a quail family walked about 10 feet in front of us, a bit of focus was lost but not the jerking/chasing. On our command, Paxton sat obediently though still focused on the quail. Each training day both of our pups learned really practical and helpful lessons. Count my wife and I as completely satisfied with the training and our pups seemed to really enjoy their time. The trainers were excellent with them and gave us really helpful training suggestions. Of prime importance, follow each day of dog training at Knightwatch with diligent training at home as loving dog owners. After six weeks of training, the pups are still a work in process, but the difference from where we started is night and day and we can easily control them. The training truly exceeded our expectations. As one reviewer said, the grounds are a bit rustic, but our dogs loved their time there and we found all the trainers and training excellent. Constance is the consummate professional and our dogs were well cared for, in good hands. The mix of training our pups plus letting them have play time with other dogs gave us the results we desired/needed and now we are getting to enjoy so much more fun time with the dogs on daily walks while more easily keeping them under control. As loving dog owners, we were definitely given a solid training base on which to grow from. This training was so effective and so much easier for us than our experience prior with other trainers. Count my wife and I both pleased and impressed with Knightwatch K9 training. Highly recommended.

I particularly like that Mary and Tom live right there next to the kennel so I know my dogs always have someone nearby. I board my 4 dogs regularly - maybe 1-2 times a month for several days at a time - so it's important that my dogs are comfortable and safe when I'm away from them. Their dropoff/pickup times have also expanded and they're pretty flexible with accommodating reasonable requests. As long as I have dogs, Animal Watchers is where they're going if I can't take them with me. With the addition of an onsite groomer (Michelle), I don't have to take my dogs anywhere else to be bathed and groomed. Michelle has been able to schedule them almost anytime I request and her prices are incredibly reasonable, much more so than the big box groomer in town.

So, this Petsmart has zero beds, crate pads, outfits, etc. for toy dogs. I made a 45 minute drive…read moreto go there specifically for a small bed for my chihuahua pup, and their smallest could've held six of her. I ended up trying a guinea pig bed (go figure that they have THAT but nothing for toy dogs). Seriously, if I go to Petsmart, I expect them to carry all the hard to get items for all versions of dogs, not just endless aisles of dog food and toys. Also, while I was there I sought UVB bulbs for my aquatic turtles. No available verbiage anywhere to offer advice on watts, size, and what is best for reptiles, turtles, etc. It was simply a blind grab and the price of these bulbs are astronomical, too. Additionally, their prices ARE NOT cheaper than Amazon. Whomever states that is out of their mind, because the Jumbo turtle pellets are $19.99 at this Petsmart and I can get the exact same version on Amazon for $9.99. Not to mention, Amazon has a thousand more versions of everything to choose from. Customer service was not only lame, it was without a smile. And we garnished that from the 3 employees in the store when we approached them (not the other way around despite our endless search which clearly indicated we couldn't find what we were looking for). All 3 did their duty, but not necessarily happily. We opted for Petsmart to give back to the community, but when they charge double the price of similar items online, reduce variety and options...well, face it folks, you are going to end up shutting your doors due to lack of sales. Be competitive! Do something besides stock shelves with the same old items we can now find at Walmart. It was the most boring and disappointing visit we've made so far when it comes to pet stores. What a waste of time and money!

Where to start... I started working with Gene about a year ago and then actually listening to him…read moreand implementing his methods maybe six months ago. Gene's approach to dog training blows my mind. I couldn't fathom training a dog without using treats. I've taken my dogs to numerous classes and private lessons and always start with a huge pouch of treats and they fall all over themselves to do what I want... when I have treats. Then I have a food obsessed, overweight pooch who has bonded with the food. Gene didn't train my dog as much as he taught me how to interact with him from canine, not a human, behavioral perspective. I didn't know any of that before Gene, of course, but now it's easy to see. Basically what he did is teach me how to build a trusting relationship with my dog: just me and him. We have developed an amazing connection that I don't think I've had with any dog prior. Using nothing but affection for a reward! I learned I don't have to bribe him; he does whatever I ask (sometimes begrudgingly) and I can reward him with praise. He still gets treat time and his bully sticks and all that, but he looks me in the eye now waiting for direction. He's calm and secure because he knows what he's supposed to be doing and when. He constantly looks to me for direction and is responsive to even hand cues now. Gene will teach you to build the foundation of your relationship with your dog and methods to control negative behaviors WITHOUT the use of food or force. I know, sounds crazy, doesn't it? It's a game changer I wish I'd learned years ago.
