Today, Winnie and I checked out ABTK9 --and WOW, I'm so impressed! We'd heard all kinds of things about this place, and let's be real - some people just can't handle seeing others grow and succeed. So naturally, we had to go see for ourselves--and let me tell you, it's AMAZING!
First off, the place is spotless and so cute. The staff? Absolutely wonderful! They took their time with Winnie (who's been a little timid lately, poor girl--we're not sure what happened with her behavior changes). Ashley explained her training techniques, gave some examples, taught me a couple things, too! By the end of our visit, she was playing ball with Mattie, happily snacking on treats from Vital Essentials (yep, they carry it in their retail shop), and just loving life. She even took a power nap. I hadn't seen her play like that in a long time!
Speaking of their retail section--it's packed! They've got Freezbones, fillers, toys, leashes, and so much more. Pictures just don't do it justice; you have to see it in person.
The best part? They're so transparent! You can schedule a tour anytime, and if they aren't busy and you pop in? no biggee--no secrets, no restrictions. I got to meet ROLLY while I was there! He's the cutest little guy, and I cannot believe he hasn't been adopted yet. If I didn't already have four dogs, he'd be coming home with me for sure.
For anyone looking for daycare, boarding, or training--especially if you've been displaced from your former "daycare"--check them out! They have structured daily activities that feel like "school" for your pup, and it's seriously such a fun and relaxing environment. Winnie and I will definitely be back (and I'm bringing my other dogs, too)! read more
