The experience we had from start to finish was impressive... I started my search online for a dog…read moretrainer to get my puppy off to a great start. Potty training would be first. I called Florida Dog Trainer and one other local business. The first local business (who's name I will not mention) was kind and offered some tips and even sent me information via email to help potty train my pup. Great. However my emails went unanswered and my questions went unanswered.... Soon after our conversation and they sent me a potty training manual... When I called Florida Dog trainer late one weekend evening, I left a message on the voicemail system... immediately the next day I receive a call and am unable to answer... after some back and forth phone tag we finally connected. Florida Dog Trainer stayed on me and stayed in touch. Which I so desperately needed and did not know at the time... the day Pat was scheduled to come and train with us... it was a BUSY frazzled day... she allowed me to move back the appointment time TWICE with no attitude and completely understanding... she noticed in my tone that I was under a lot of stress and tried to help me relax and even offered to move it to a later time if needed.. she KNEW I needed her BADLY! Omg... thank you Pat. She came over and spent 2 hours with us and went over everything we needed to know. My stress is less now.. my puppy is not crying in the middle of the night when it's time for sleep and he's in the kennel... it's relieving to know there's people who cares about us, our well being and getting this done right the first time (sometimes it takes a few tries...right..) I was overwhelmed with the new puppy on top of my other obligations. Pat with Florida Dog Trainers out of Montverde Florida, came and HELPED me... TRUST the process and give them a call. Simple things I was doing on my own for two weeks, thinking it was helping was not.... She showed me techniques and walked me through how to execute them. She provided me with some goodies and reading information to help me be more informed and keep up the "training". She also checks in on us to see how things are going. She will return if we need her to. Which I doubt we do... she's thought us quite a bit so we can now help ourselves :) I can't say enough GREAT things about this lady and this company Florida Dog Trainer.

It's a bad place to go. In March, I took two pets in for nail trims. I told the technician they…read moreboth had extra dewclaws on all fours. I paid the bill. Yesterday, the male dog gave a pain yelp. I checked him; his dewclaw on his right rear leg was never trimmed. Had the technician checked, they would have seen the dewclaw was so long it had grown into his toe and was infected. I made an appointment today; they cut the nail, gave me antibiotics and pain meds, and charged $170.00. I explained I was there last month to have the nails and dewclaws trimmed, and their neglect caused me to pay more. I asked why the bill was so high. They told me I am not getting a discount or any money back because the technician could have trimmed the dewclaw. I said there is no way the dewclaw can grow a half inch in one month. I then said, " You people are all about the money, " and hung up. DON'T GO THERE.

I can't tell if it's absent mindedness or if these people are just maliciously incompetent. If you…read morelove your animal, don't take them to these people. My pet died because of their negligence. They treated him for the wrong thing entirely because the vet tech told the doctor the wrong things. Symptoms I never even had issue with were on his record. I thought that was the whole point pf speaking with a doctor - to confirm the vet tech report and to discuss treatment. I couldn't get a consistent answer about his blood work results either. She was very dismissive about my concerns and proceeded as if it was just a routine issue. She then tried to put a known diabetic on a steroid and when I questioned it and said that those two things don't mix she said "ohh" like she didn't know this before?? Now I also need to talk about the cleanliness of the place. Worst facility I've ever seen. Animal shelters are cleaner than this place. I was grossed out after my first visit and mistakenly gave them a second chance giving them the benefit of doubt. Exposed medical waste were left in the garbage by the exam table. Every other facility cleans up after each patient. I could smell dog pee and the seating inside of the exam rooms are coated in grime. There are also two doors in these rooms. One for when you and your pet enter, and one on the inside for the staff to go back and forth easier with animals. There's a window at the bottom like a doggy door and one at the top. Both of these are disgusting with smears from pets and people. Like weeks worth of build up. Absolutely disgusting. I wish I saw the reviews sooner on yelp because Google has them at 4 stars. They also DO NOT work with Chewy and charge double for what scripts cost anywhere else. They refuse to tell you which medication it is until you say yes or no and if you want to get it somewhere else, they charge you 20$ for a written script. No one cares about the animals here. It's all a money grab. No sympathy or respect, and they should be shut down for malpractice

I recently…read moreadopted my beautiful pitbull Pepper and I wanted to keep her active, healthy, and socialized with other dogs. That's when I found Natural Instincts on a Google search and decided to give it a shot. I signed up for the agility classes. For 99$ you can attend agility class either Saturday or Sunday morning for 6 sessions. The sessions expire within 12 weeks so when Pepper had to take a break because she got spayed, it was absolutely no issue. The majority of the class is focused on doing the agility course, but they also practice other things such as proper leash walking. The owner runs the class but there are always atleast 2-3 other trainers around to help. Pepper loves agility! She is a couch potato at heart but when she's at agility class she is always having a blast running and just being around dogs. A lot of obedience classes and dog day cares unfortunately discriminate against pitbulls but at Natural Instincts they are extremely bully friendly. Oh and they always have someone with a professional camera taking amazing pics of you & your dog. It's definitely nice having all these wonderful pictures of my dog (it's not like my camera isn't already full of pics of her). I have one week left from this 6 week package but I'll definitely purchase a new 6 week pass next class.

I make the drive from St Pete to Orlando because this is the only place I completely trust with my dogs. In July of 2024 I decided to make the training investement with both. I knew the mad skills and talents that Lexi & Tai have with dogs and both of mine needed the professional assistance. I enrolled them both together. Archie, is an incredibly stubborn 6 year old husky and Pongo is my overly excited, talking 10 month old Husky. They blend well together but they are not everyone's cup of tea! I trusted these two and their team and they did wonders with compassion, patience and professionalism! My dogs are the core of my world, so as most dog owners I worry how others treat my dogs when away. Lexi would touch in almost everyday, she communicated reports with honesty on progress & she let me know when a post of their training was hitting the social so I could feel better being apart. Recently, when I had to evacuate from St Pete during both of these recent hurricanes to Orlando, the team took them right in and explained to me the precautions and procedures they would be taking with them. This team even stayed overnight during the storms! Talk about going the extra mile. Lexi is amazing at communication and I still ask her questions about training because it's an everyday practice here with my two! Tai radiates love when he talks to the dogs. The staff is very professional, clean, organized and educates you on the different packages/pricing & knows your dog! Also they take great photography of the dogs! (photo of the work added!) Bottom line, if you found this facility and you If you love your dog(s) you struck gold!! I have been bringing them since they opened their doors and I will be loyal to this team forever. Note: my dogs could attend our wedding BECAUSE of Lexi and Tai's training with them.
