Latte' and Chloe.
Jocelyn O.

Always gentle care for my hound mix and Doxie. The dogs seem to bond and hang out in between appointments. Love Whoopie. She and her staff love and care for each pet. Monthly standing appointment. Recommend always.

This is the best groomer around! Whoopie and her team always take such good care of Macklin. He always looks amazing when he's done and he has such a good time playing with the other dogs. "BigMac" loves his Visits.

I brought my dog to Adam for a 4-week boot camp type training to help with some behavioral issues,…read moreprimarily what I perceived as aggression towards other dogs. Adam trained my dog to really focus on us and to come whenever we call him no matter what might be distracting him. He also taught him how to properly walk on the leash. In addition to this, and in order to directly address our concerns, Adam had our dog interact with all of the dogs he had at his home, and took him to the dog park so he could socialize and be taught when his behavior was appropriate vs. when it wasn't. The training my dog got was great, but I think even more importantly than that is what my husband and I got out of this. We learned what our dogs behavior means and how to address it. We learned to look for certain warning signs when he's around other dogs that may indicate we we should avoid interaction, etc. We're now much more comfortable taking our dog to the park and allowing him to interact with other dogs. Because of that, he will get much more socialization and naturally continue improving on his training as he begins to trust dogs and people. Adam has continued to make himself available for any of my questions and additional training sessions. He has also followed up a couples time to check in on my dog and see if I had any questions. I definitely recommend Obedient Paws for anyone who needs some training for their pups.

Your dog is NOT safe here and DO NOT TRUST THESE PEOPLE ALONE WITH YOUR DOG! My dog was attacked by…read moreanother dog during a 4 week board and train twice in the same day here on 06/21/21. They had a fight in the morning and a second one in the evening. The dogs were left unattended, together during day play. The "handlers" apparently blew the airhorns to get the other dog to stop attacking my dog, that didn't work so then ran to get Adam. What if he wasn't there? My dog would probably not be here today. My dog and the other dog were put back together later the same day, which does not make any sense to anyone with a functioning brain. I didn't know the extent of my dogs injuries due to the attack. Adam tried to negotiate with me to pay the vet bill from his vet even before me being able to see my dog. MY DOG GOT ATTACKED DUE TO YOUR NEGLIGENCE. He offered to give me a free week if I paid $500-600 for the vet bill. Just goes to show you how absolutely money hungry he is and what he's willing to put at risk ( YOUR DOG). I took my dog to our regular vet that Thursday and he had to have 2 drains surgically put into his leg to let it drain and keep swelling down. Not once did Adam apologize for what happened. Not once did he express any compassion or sympathy. That's when I realized it's all just money for him. You and your dog are just another dollar sign to him. This is just a warning for those of you thinking of coming here. He hires people off the street who have 0 dog training or experience with handling dogs to work for him. He is an extremely rough handler, i've watched him myself. The things that are done to your dog when no one is watching makes my blood boil. Please think twice about what may happen to your pup while in their care. My dog paid the price, don't let yours also. We've had a long 3 years of recovery for my dog to be able to trust other people and dogs again. He will never be the dog that he was before because of Adam and Obedient Paws. Please, if you love your dog, don't walk, RUN far away from this place and this man. You will be doing your dog the greatest service.

Hands down Dogtopia is the best doggie daycare. Everyone that works here is super friendly!! You…read morecan tell that they love the dogs!! Lexi ( my Boston Terrier) loves it here! She runs right in the door Anxiously awaiting for the team member to come out to the lobby to get her. As soon as they appear Lexi gives them lots of love and kisses!! She can't wait too see all her friends. There is so many great events throughout the month, most of the events benefit a charity or organization. Which I love. Dogtopia has a spa as well which is great while your dog is at Daycare you can schedule a spa day for your dog. They also have various dog treat days. Dogtopia even offers a Saturday Daycare special from time to time. I have not utilized this service as of yet, but Dogtopia offers boarding. I've heard great things though. Dogtopia is invested in the community as well. Dogtopia sets up a various events to showcase all they have to offer. Oh the best part is Dogtopia has cameras so you can watch your puppy/dog live on your phone or computer. Dogtopia has a great user friendly app that has everything Dogtopia has to offer in the palm of your hand. You can even schedule daycare thru there. No need to worry about parking the parking garage is right there with plenty of parking. There's even an assigned spot for drop off and pickup. Lexi and I highly recommend taking your dog here! Hope to see you soon! Let them know Lexi sent you!

They only accept your male pups up until 7 months if they are not neutered. That's sad & fucked up…read more!! And that news was told me the day of a hr after already accepting the appointment. I will say the employees were nice & cool.
