I was feeling like I must be one of those one star folks who had said something wrong in her application, and they were black listing me already. I was pretty deflated. Imagine my delight when I got an email to make an appointment on Friday, and got to head up and meet said dream-pup that same day. We hit it off, so we went to pick up the boss (our other dog), and see what she thought of him. She wasn't impressed, and he was intimidated, but she warmed up to him (defined as "ignored") more quickly than some other dogs she's met. We hung out in the yard for a bit to see how things would unfold, and it went better than we had anticipated. We decided to give it a whirl and bring him home, and are so glad we did. The dogs are totally getting along (after drawing some boundaries at home of course), and starting to play and sleep all cuddled up together. SUCCESS!! Cheryl and Abby were super nice, knowledgeable and helpful. This is a beautiful temporary home for these rescued pups, and the folks working there clearly care so much about them. A million thank yous for helping us add a new little lovebug to the family. Edgar (now Poe) has his forever home!

Any dog that gets to come live at the Big Dog Rescue has hit the jackpot. Although it's not a…read moreforever home, it is a gorgeous sanctuary for dogs to leave the streets and shelter for some decompression in Sonoma County. My dog Cherly was a homeless hound from Oklahoma who lived at the Big Dog Rescue for a year and a half of her life. Cheryl saved my girl and gave her a chance even though no one wanted her as she was one of their long term residents. This peaceful palace is a fully fenced sanctuary. Cheryl (the owner) and staff has put so much love and care into her passions. They dogs she's rehabilitated, the care they receive, they support they get. You have to be one lucky pup to be at the Big Dog. My dog loves coming back to the Big Dog for visits. She's super excited and happy. Cheryl wants to make sure her dogs are going to the home that is the perfect match. She will carefully screen as every rescue should do. I've read some of the 1 star reviews on here. And Cheryl is right, dogs are not ment to spend hours outside. What if it's hot? She is correct and has every right to be concerned where her dogs are placed. If you are not a good fit of she is not comfortable with your household, then I'm sure there is another match out there waiting for you to save them.

I rarely write reviews, but people need to be warned…read more I paid $3,500 for a French Bulldog from this breeder and was told the dog was AKC registered. After reviewing the paperwork myself, I had serious concerns about its legitimacy. Now, at just THREE YEARS OLD, my dog is losing bladder control and quickly becoming paralyzed. This has been absolutely devastating for my family--especially my youngest daughter, who is heartbroken watching her dog decline like this.(myself included) From the beginning, my dog has had ongoing health issues, including severe allergies requiring constant vet visits, Cytopoint injections, and expensive specialty food. The emotional and financial toll has been overwhelming. I've since learned more about serious conditions like IVDD (Intervertebral Disc Disease), which can be more common when breeding is not done responsibly. Based on my experience, this raises major concerns. I will also say this: my interaction with this seller felt unusual. Meetings were arranged in public locations rather than at a residence, and I was never given a clear sense of where the dogs were being raised. Looking back, that lack of transparency is something I would not overlook again. In my opinion, charging a premium price for a dog that develops severe, disabling health conditions this early in life is unacceptable. Do your homework. Ask hard questions. Verify everything independently. Learn from my experience.

I can't recommend this trainer enough! I was so nervous about doing a 5-week board and train…read morebecause my dog is truly my whole world, but it ended up being one of the best decisions I've ever made for both of us. Before training, we struggled with potty training, jumping, being extremely hyper, not being able to focus, and staying calm around other people and dogs. After just five weeks, the difference has been incredible. My dog is so much more focused, relaxed, well-mannered, and confident. She can now be around people and other dogs without being overwhelmed, and our daily life has become so much easier and more enjoyable. What really sets this trainer apart is that the support doesn't end when your dog comes home. She still checks in with me every week, answers all of my questions, and continues to help me build on everything my dog learned during training. Knowing I have that ongoing guidance has made such a huge difference. As someone who has a lot of anxiety about my dog, she was also incredibly understanding and reassuring throughout the entire process. Leaving my dog for five weeks was one of the hardest things I've ever done, but she took amazing care of her, and I knew she was in the best hands. I'm so grateful for everything she's done for us. She didn't just train my dog, she helped improve both of our lives. If you're considering training for your dog, I truly can't recommend her enough!

I have learned skills that will help me with future fosters., I have learned its the human directing boundaries and behavior. Tyson will never be perfect, but with the right tools he is able to live a fun and enjoyable life (so am I). I cannot stress enough how important training is when owning a dog, even if that dog seems 'perfect' . We still need the knowledge when there are other not so behaved dogs that we are able to handle the situation. I cannot say enough about Gabby, her patience, her knowledge and dedication to the dog and human are beyond just training. She continues to help me learn and understand managing Tyson, she never gets frustrated with questions and re-teaching (me) the tools for success. She treats every dog differently as they are different in every way. She takes the time to get to know them and what they need. I cannot say enough about Gabby and how she has made having a highly reactive dog pleasant to walk . Training is never done, I learn something new at ever class.

Two weeks later my cat is lethargic, and I have to wait until Tuesday after the holiday to call in. Well, he died that Monday night. I call to inform them and introduce myself and they hurriedly start telling me they need to switch his antibiotics. Why couldn't they have called me? It doesn't take two weeks to get results. The kicker? I brought my cat in because he was sick and it was determined to be a bacterial infection. They insisted the cat get a rabies vaccine as if that couldn't wait. It probably weakened his immune system. I'm so tired of greedy and dismissive vets. Do yourself a favor and find a better one elsewhere.

She…read moreworks with most of the other local shelters/rescues in the area to save small dogs of all ages and conditions....as she has space available. I have known Odessa for years and have so much respect for her incredible personal commitment to dog rescue. Most of the dogs 'roam' freely in her house, learning to get along with other dogs and with people. Puppies (and moms) stay in the puppy palace (a charmingly converted and furnished garage space). Rescuing and adopting dogs is very hard and very expensive work, since many dogs who were neglected or abused require a lot of love, medical care, and training. Please take any 'negative' reviews with a big grain of salt. All of us who have to deal with the public understand how unreasonable and uncharitable some people can be. This is a truly extraordinary woman who makes great sacrifices to rescue and place dogs in the best possible homes. It's an uphill battle with so many people allowing their dogs to breed and dumping them on rescue. And with some adopters/lookers who can be disrespectful of the process around placing dogs. Very few of us could do this work day in and day out with no reward other than seeing dogs go to the right guardians. Thank you to everyone who supports and adopts from rescue, saves lives, and appreciates those doing the really hard work. And please consider fostering a little dog if you can. It's a rewarding experience being part of the pipeline to forever homes.
