Angie is fantastic with all things dogs! Initially Angie trained our newly rescued hound,…read moreSavannah. Savannah was a stray with absolutely no training or manners. The 4 week obedience training with Angie, Savannah was transformed into a calmer doggo, with great manners, and way more confidence in herself than when we first rescued her. We also just boarded Savannah and Poppy (our older golden retriever) with Angie for 5 days. The facilities were top notch (indoor heated/cooled kennels with anytime access to outdoor runs instead of crates) and the attention that Savannah and Poppy got was fantastic. The pictures provided to us while they were boarded showed how big smiles both dogs had. When we went to pick them up, you could tell the dogs were given lots of love and attention. Poppy is my velcro dog and she did not want to leave because of the amount of love she got while being boarded. Savannah also did made sure to give Angie lots of love before jumping into the car. During our trip we asked Angie if she would be able to give Savannah a spa day with a wash and pedicure, and Angie said no problem and got it done before we had picked Savannah up. Pretty Smart Pet Services has all of our training, boarding, and now grooming needs for Poppy and Savannah and any future doggos we decide to get. The drive from Va Beach to Franklin is well worth knowing that Poppy and Savannah get the best care possible.

Just wanted rave about Ange. She came to our house today to trim our dog's nails. In the past…read morewe've had to put our little Cujo (Scout) under anesthesia at the Vet's office to get his nails trimmed, which I absolutely hate doing. She was AMAZING at controlling him until he was calm and she was able to trim his nails. We can't wait to have Ange come back for in-home behavior training. Scout is a rescue dog, and a BITER. For the first time in the 2 years we've had him, I am seeing a brighter future for him being able to interact with people. No pressure Ange .... LOL

Recently, my Beagle/Basset Hound mix, Buggy, hurt himself playing in the backyard. My regular vet…read morewasn't able to see him that day, so I took him to the Emergency Clinic. When I tried to get an appointment at my same vet for a re-check, they still couldn't see him until Monday (that was on a Thursday). I decided to look for another vet close by (my regular vet is almost a 30 minute drive) and found Suffolk Animal Hospital (SAH) here on Yelp. I called and they were able to see Buggy the next day. SAH is located on Holland Road and is in an older, brick building. However, the inside is lovely--there is no doggy odor or cat litter box stink, and there is a nice aroma in the air. The walls are painted with wonderful colors and lots of inspirational posters and pictures throughout. When we walked him, we were the only patients in the waiting area, which was great for Buggy; he gets very nervous in new situations. We didn't have to wait too long before Kelly, the vet tech, brought us into the examining room. Both Kelly and Dr. Amber were friendly and courteous, and they made me feel comfortable. Another reason I brought Buggy was because the vet at the Emergency Clinic had heard a heart murmur. Understandably, I was quite nervous until Dr. Amber examined him and told me what she thought it was. I'm not going to bore you with medical lingo, but the good news is Buggy is fine at the moment. If you're needing a vet for your loved ones, try SAH. I am a satisfied customer and that is a good thing since I have two dogs and two cats. They will get used to seeing me often!
