I highly recommend if you get a puppy and are new to puppies, give her a call and get the two hour in home puppy sessions.

They give you a decent window of time in the AM and PM to drop off and pick up your pup so it's convenient for everyone. He was a little nervous on his first day but quickly warmed up to his trainer, Dakota. At the end of each week, you go in and are given a lesson going over what your dog has learned. Sit, lay, heel and place are just a few of the commands he learned. Our walks are MUCH calmer and we work on what he learned often. The staff is awesome, the place is clean and all in all I think it was worth the time and $ spent. They also have other programs depending what you're looking for.

They are so in tune with human emotions, playful, and loving. All three of them have been around babies and toddlers and could not be more gentle. The joy they bring to our home is indescribable. Our most recent pup was a part of the inmate training program. It's so lovely to think that she was able to bring joy to others before she came home to us. All three were adopted when they were around 6-8 mo old. We have several older dogs (10-14 years old) as well- all of whom have medical conditions that require extra care. We were hesitant at first to bring young dogs around our older pack. There was absolutely no issue. The little ones have encouraged their elders to play and run around with them but are also very respectful of their space and need for rest. Liz is such a wonderful lady and even more wonderful with the dogs. She sat us down and told us all about the stack of papers she gives at each adoption. She encouraged us to always reach out if we saw any behavioral issues so she could work with us. We knew that the line of communication was always open so any problems could be fixed. Fortunately, we have not had any thus far! All dogs are in perfect health. I believe we paid $650-$700 for each dog. This included microchip/vaccines/neutering/initial behavioral training. Based on the good work this place does- and on the prices of other rescues that offer doodle mixes- this is an incredibly fair price. Based on the quality of dog we have received from Liz 3x now, I really do believe it is her treatment of them in the beginning of their lives that have shaped them into such amazing and intuitive animals. Seeing negative reviews on here absolutely breaks my heart. Of course everyone is entitled to their opinion but mine could not be more positive of Pawsibilities Unleashed. I wholeheartedly recommend this organization to my friends and to anyone reading this. Here are a few pictures of the Aussiedoodle trio we have been blessed with- Oswald, Rosie, and Harold!

It was after several years of dog-sitting a Dog Wizard graduate (Cooper) for weeks at a time that…read morewe knew when we brought home our (Tizzy), mannerless, hyper, barking, stubborn, six pounds of fur and bark, we needed the Dog Wizard's help. Destiny Spence, was assigned to us by The Dog Wizard (louisville@thedogwizard.com). Their system worked well and met our needs. First, we were able to easily schedule all of our appointments in advance. Because Tizzy was six months old and we had a time crunch for completing her training, we opted for the private "in-home and public spaces plan. After meeting Tizzy, AND US, Destiny agreed that was what Tizzy needed. Destiny took charge and quickly showed us how to get Tizzy's attention, reward, and NOT reward her behavior. She did the same with us, too, because only one of us is almost a disciplinarian. After each class, Destiny sent us a reminder of what was covered and expected in the next class. Tizzy successfully graduated by passing all her classes. She knows how to walk correctly on a leash, place on the spot where I want her, come to me ALL OF THE TIME, even when she's outside, and that NO means stop whatever she's doing. Our house is much quieter now because she knows NO means stop barking and being hyper. An added compliment to Destiny is that she was prompt, consistently communicated with all of us, and was honest in pointing out when we were the problem, not Tizzy. Yes, we highly recommend The Dog Wizard and Destiny Spence for both dogs and their family members. ADDITIONAL COMMENT: THE ONE NEGATIVE COMMENT ON YELP IS ABOUT THE FRANKFORT LOCATION.

I had been following Protection Dog Services in Frankfort, Kentucky since the pandemic. As someone…read morewho values both safety and responsibility, I recognize that there are times when a firearm simply is not an option. So I began exploring the idea of a trained family protection dog. When I spoke with owner David Harris about a dog I saw online, he was honest and thoughtful, even telling me that my first choice might not fit my needs. Instead, he recommended Pippa. There was no pressure, no hard sell, just a genuine desire to make the right match. Coming from a military background, I was used to working dogs, so I had concerns about having a protection-trained German Shepherd around my family and in public spaces. Those worries faded almost immediately. Within the first hour of training, I saw that Pippa was sweet, affectionate, and incredibly eager to work. Greg Handy spent two days training with us, teaching both me and my younger niece, how to handle Pippa. That gave me enormous confidence about having her around family and in my office. What stands out most is how much love, care and transparency the entire team brings to the process. They're not just providing a service, they're building long-term support and relationships. I am extremely grateful to David Harris, Jenny Harris, Greg Handy, and the whole team. They turned me into a true believer. Pippa is affectionate and loving, but I know if ever needed, she'll be there. I would absolutely do business with Protection Dog Services again and highly recommend them to anyone considering a trained family protection dog.

I never imagined I would be in a position where I'd even consider a protection dog. Unfortunately,…read moreafter a traumatic experience at our home, my wife was permanently unsettled and ready to move. I knew I had to find a different solution--but navigating this world is overwhelming. Prices are astronomical, and there's no shortage of people online claiming to be "experts." I spent over a year researching. I flew all over the country visiting trainers and breeders of every scale and cost, trying to separate noise from substance. From my very first interaction with Protection Dog Sales, it was clear they were different. David, Paula, and the entire PDS team answered every question we had--especially the stupid ones--without ever making me feel rushed or pressured. There was never a hard sell, never a ticking clock. Just honest conversations and as much time as I needed to feel comfortable. Our goal was a family-friendly protection dog, as we have a 6-year-old and a 2-year-old. We loved shepherds and Malinois, but wanted a lower-shedding breed. PDS helped us land on a beautiful male Schnauzer, and he has been an absolutely incredible addition to our family. We flew across the country several times to visit PDS before purchasing, and each time the entire staff made themselves available. We met numerous dogs, asked endless questions, and were always encouraged to take our time. Once we made the decision, the delivery process was flawless. Daniel, the trainer, was exceptional--he spent several days with us ensuring a smooth transition and making sure our whole family was confident and comfortable. Even now, two years later, we remain deeply connectedn to the PDS team. They are incredibly responsive and always willing to help, which speaks volumes about how they stand behind their dogs and clients long after the sale. It's honestly hard to imagine our world without our dog. He is fiercely protective, perfectly controlled, and exceptionally well-mannered. That said--these are still dogs. Like children, their behavior reflects the time and energy you invest, don't expect a robot. PDS gives you the foundation, but ownership still requires commitment. If you are seriously considering a protection dog and want professionalism, transparency, patience, and long-term support, I cannot recommend Protection Dog Sales highly enough.
