    Nola at the Lodge for training
    Chris S.

    I have nothing but good things to say about our experience with Wet Nose, hard to even understand the negative reviews some others have left. We chose Wet Nose based on a lot of really good reviews here and at other sites. We had a big home remodeling project getting ready to start and having our 7 month old lab puppy in the middle of it just wasn't going to work. My wife was looking for a place to board her for 3 weeks and stumbled on to Wet Nose Lodge & Spa. Not only could we board her in what looked like very nice accommodations but also pay a bit more and get AKC certified puppy training in basic obedience. Sounded like a win/win for my wife and I and the dog. We dropped her off and spent an hour with Victoria who would be her trainer during the next 3 weeks. She went over what she would be doing and what was expected of us when our puppy returned home. We agreed and every day we got an email report card on her progress as well as pictures of her. We also got to see her in pictures and videos on their FB page. We saw her socializing with lots of other dogs her size, playing on the nice doggy playground equipment and even out dancing around happily in the snow! The outdoor area has astro-turf which makes for a better experience for the dogs, especially when it is wet outside. They also have a doggie swimming pool for fun in the warmer months. When we picked her up she was a completely different dog! I won't say she was perfect, after all she is still a puppy but she was so much better at controlling herself, greeting others and even sitting at a doorway while we opened the door instead of pushing us out of the way to get there! The day we picked her up she had had a thorough grooming, her coat was all smooth and silky and she smelled great, her dog nails were not only clipped but polished and smooth. We had 3 in home follow up lessons with Victoria and we continue to work with her as she improves every day. We plan to leave her there again later this year for the next level of training. Let's be honest, 21 days of boarding, day care and dedicated obedience training was not inexpensive but we felt it was really worth what we paid, the old saying that you get what you pay for is true. We met Coleman, the owner and he was super nice and really knew dog training. What's more he is a Veteran and it is an honor for us to help support a veteran owned business. One thing Coleman does is to take in dogs from shelters to give them basic training at no cost so they will be more likely to be adopted but also better canine citizens. We plan to continue to use WNS&L, both for additional training, boarding and daycare and even grooming.

    Correspondence from the owner

    Unfortunately, I spoke with the owner of the facility, which I've never met before. We had some issues with our credit card company, which we told the young ladies and provided new payment details. I tried calling the owner only to be called childish, and a criminal. He hung up on me after I tried to discuss the issues with him. I'm not sure if it is a racial issue or not as he has never met me. Perhaps he is just a businessman with zero customer service skills. He has NEVER contacted me about the issues until today after being given no time to resolve the issue he blocked us from services. I tried to ask where I could pay him and he refused. Long story short invest your money else where. He cares nothing about retaining long time loyal customers The employees are super nice, the groomer etc but THIS GUY, I can only imagine how he speaks to the staff and other customers. Well, probably not the best as it's a completely new staff in under a year of taking my dog here. I have attached the email I was sent about the issue. Reading all the other reviews the only tip I can give is a referral to psychology today. Stop, get some help Mr. Coleman. Update within minutes of posting: he text me threatening me about fraudulent charges. Mind you I've been coming to Wetnose for about a YEAR. We were just there Saturday! And paid over $100 for grooming and daycare. This debate is literally about $50 dollars if that. Which can EASILY be paid but he refused payment. It's plenty of other reviewers saying wetnose over charged them. Which is the case as we were charged for 1 day our dog did not go to Daycare. AGAIN, we let the girls know we were having credit card issues and PROVIDED OTHER PAYMENT METHODS!!! Spoke with my bank and our dispute was VALID they OVER CHARGED US TWICE!! Again, get you AND your wife some help. You maybe need to go to Ben Taub for your quick meditation needs

    Fun at daycare!

    Our pups Springer and Bregs LOVE wet nose! They go to daycare to play frequently and always come home happy and tired. They get so excited when we pull into the parking lot and I love how much the employees love and take care of them! We have boarded them there 10+ times over the years and have never had a complaint! We also use them for grooming and have been very happy! It's so nice to have a place you can trust.

    I found this wonderful place for my dogs when we are taking longer trips! I love the fact that…read morethey're further out from the city and have property for the dogs to be able to wonder like they used to when we lived in the suburbs. My dogs are accustomed to being around, just our family and don't always be friend new people readily. They immediately took to the owner, Brian. Our dogs are on a diet where they have a mixture of dry and wet food that require refrigeration or freezing. That was no problem at all for the owner to accommodate. The fellas looked well cared for when my son picked them up! My son forgot to check for the dogs blankets when he picked them up and Brian kindly drove them down to the city where we live so that the dogs would have them. I will definitely use Hicks Farm again and I highly recommend them!

    Zelda, our German shepherd/husky mix, boarded with Brian for nearly two weeks while we were on…read morevacation. Before she went, I'd worked with her on sit, down, take it, leave it, and some spins with decent success. Brian took what she had and built on it, adding heel, come when called, turn, and stay. He returned a noticeably different dog. When we hit some bumps shortly after, he came back out and spent a solid hour with me going over what was actually happening...not just commands and corrections, but why she was behaving the way she was and what she needed from me to feel secure. (Spoiler: she needed me to be more confident and consistent.) He has a way of cutting straight to what matters without overcomplicating it, and more than once he said exactly the right thing at exactly the right moment. What struck me most across both experiences was how much genuine wisdom he brings to his work. He's clearly someone who has learned his craft through deep experience and observation, and it shows in every interaction with the dog and with the owner. On top of all of that, his pricing was incredibly reasonable; boarding and training combined for what many trainers charge for training alone. We felt genuinely taken care of. Kind, patient, perceptive, and exactly what we needed. Highly recommend.

Ironically they gave be a big trash bag filled with what use to be his bed, that he had chewed up. That is fine but why not give us the important stuff and make me drive an half hour back to pick up his stuff? Then, when I arrived again with the bag of fluff I asked the 3 ladies in the front to throw it away for me as it was GARBAGE. One directed me to a dumpster behind them. I picked up all of my items, placed my dogs food and toys in the car and left that bag of fluff right in front in their parking lot. Will never come back to this one again.

    My Frenchie, Frankie and I, love PetSuites! The staff are so welcoming and loving, he is runs right…read moreinto their arms. I can tell he's happy there. They have lots of activities for pooches, specials and clean and comfortable daycare and boarding. Their hours are convenient and they open later than most other dog boarding. They have an events calendar posted and they decorate the lobby by holidays and any occasion and they always have interactive events welcoming pet owners to get involved with bonding with their pets. They also have free murch and welcome bags with goodies just for stopping in! Their prices are competitive and they require the basic shots to protect other animals. They're payment app is easy to use where you can schedule and personalize future stays and bookings and message the front office. They are very active on social media and their TikToks are so cute! In the play area they triage dogs by size and if they are spayed/neutered to avoid conflict and overpowerment. Thanks to PetSuites, Frankie has learned a few neat commands and is more sociable. My dog is always tired at the end of the day from all the playing he's done and he loves their pool so much that I got him one for at home. I trust this is a safe place for my fur baby, I never had an issue and they communicate immaculately, great job guys!

She is very pleasant.

Called my husband and said the dogs had to be picked up no later than 2:30 so I had to leave work early and pick them up. Arrived right at 2:30 and They were helpful getting the dogs to the car as they needed to leave. When I got home and got a good looking ok at the dogs I was shocked at how poor the groomer had done. My poodle is the worst of the two. Hair uneven on his head and tail. Ears cropped like a pageboy. His feet had not been done properly, the hair left long. The hair on his legs uneven. He is 9 years old and gets groomed every 3 months. By far the worst job I have ever seen. My schnauzer was better but, again, in the 8 years I've had him, the poorest job yet. The dogs had not been bathed. It's unfortunate as I like supporting community businesses. Of course will not be back and would not recommend for anyone else.
