I took a previous dog to Trimark and was quite happy with the classes. So, when I got my next dog I…read moredecided to go back. Unfortunately, they had hired a new trainer. He spent 75% of each class talking about himself and his dog. It wascquite obvious that his dog was well trained but I was there for my dog. There was little to no actual instruction and even less in class practice time. My dog actually developed behavioural problems during these classes which mysteriously went away after the course was over. I really enjoyed my first experience here. It's unfortunate to see how far downhill its gone.

Linda's courses have been instrumental in ensuring that our Daisy will heel, sit, stay, all the stuff I need so that I am in control, and not the dog. This is the second dog we have trained at Tri-Mark, both have had similar successful results. I highly recommend Tri-mark for anyone who needs to connect with and get control of their dog, whether it is for basic obedience or up to show training. Tri-Mark shows you how to do it with their easy to follow steps, and training your dog in a class environment will keep you on track to ensure success. Thanks Linda and Robert!

I have a 14 month old miniature schnauzer who made it very difficult for me to allow people into my…read morehome, and to walk by people on our walks, as she is very people reactive. It was embarassing daily when she barked and lunged at people for no apparent reason. I had my first 2 hour lesson with Jason last night, and the difference I can see in my Teeka already has made me enjoy our walk this evening, instead of me feeling uneasy of her reactions towards people we pass on our walks. I would highly recommend Jason as he was able to assess my dog's unwanted bullying behaviour as "guarding me" in my house and in public. He showed me how to take control at home, and and on our walks. I look forward to our next 3 sessions and a calmer and socially graceful pup.

Jason is the puppy whisperer. It's as simple as that. He understands dogs and dogs understand him…read more My puppy is my first dog and I had no idea what I was doing. My fear of doing the wrong thing was affecting my dog and was making me an ineffective dog owner. Jason corrected my behaviour so that we could correct my puppy's behaviour. She's 6 months old right now and is a very relaxed and well adjusted pup. Nobody ever tells you just how much work having a puppy is and Jason put my mind at ease and gave me the confidence to take her out and not over react to situations because now I KNOW that she will come when called. With Jason's help I learned to enjoy my puppy and everything that comes with being a puppy. I realize that her puppyhood is short lived and I am enjoying every minute of it. Within my first meeting with Jason I learned the basics of what to do and what not to do, what dogs need in order to thrive, (and no, it's not just bones and love) and how to properly communicate with my dog to let her know what I want from her. Trust is key in a relationship with your pet and I wouldn't have learned that without Jason's help. No amount of reading puppy books or talking to other dog owners will give you the in depth knowledge and hands on experience that Jason will provide. If you're doing something wrong, Jason will tell you and understand that this is what's best for your pet. Mango and I both love Jason and would highly recommend him to any old or new pet owners. Thanks Jason, see you at the dog park!

Training: I brought my doodle here for training, and I cannot recommend Zena's classes enough. I have referred a few friends to her classes as well. She is so calming, direct but not harsh, and at the end of the day - she's training you the owner more than the dog. My dog Cooper is so well behaved and I can say I owe it to Zena for instilling good habits in him (ok and maybe me too) through her training classes. Facility and staff: This store is always clean, organized, and the staff is always friendly. The cashiers greet you and your pet as if they see you everyday. It's certainly memorable and makes you want to return. Grooming: The groomers at this location are always so pleasant. They are normally quite busy so I book in advance. If they have a cancellation, they will call you to see if you're interested in coming sooner, which I like because I'm always eager to get the groom done. Cooper & I will continue to shop at this PetSmart location :)

The trainers were knowledgeable, interested, and gave us some really personalized tips and tricks for how to deal with the most stubborn dog I know! We are planning on continuing with their obedience training in Port Credit - in just 4 weeks of puppy foundations, we really noticed a difference in his behaviour. In addition to training, our dog LOVES daycare here at the Port Credit location. The staff say that he never lies down, and is just in seventh heaven the entire time. He comes home EXHAUSTED every time (full days and half days). I like that the staff is involved with the play time as well - they get in there and really get to know all of the dogs. I also trust that they will keep my dog safe and supervise all activities. They know all of the dogs well, and really understand how to handle all of their personalities. Only slight downsides: No play sessions during the summer! Closed on Sundays (everyone deserves a day off) Price - The price of daycare is pretty much on par with most of the other places in the area (so, not cheap), but I did pay $30 for just a bath.. not sure I'll do that again. They do a really good job with grooming though; actually listened to what we wanted. Sometimes the web cams aren't working, and all I want to do is pretend to be doing work while I watch our guy scamper around! All-in-all - such a fabulous place, with great staff and great doggy friends to be made!

Do not order from this company. Unbeknownst to me before shipping they ship from China. It took a…read morelittle less than a month for me to receive the harness. There is a flaw in the designs of their harnesses. The straps they use are a smoother nylon and after tightening them up they slid back down very quickly. After adjusting the vest to fit my dog the straps loosened back up so badly the vest just hung on my dog. This happened within 30 minutes. When I contacted the company their solution was a refund after I shipped the vest back to China at my experience, sent the company a tracking number and wait another month to get refunded. Plus the vest has to be dog hair free and dirt free. So basically give them $80 for a defective vest, wait a month get the defective vest, them pay to ship the defective vest back to China, and give the company a tracking number, wait for another month to pass for them to get the vest in China and hope and pray the accept your return and gamble if you'll actually get a refund and however long that takes. The website is deceptive claiming to be an American company. Maybe they are but it doesn't matter if you deal with China to get it in the first place and also for returns. Very bad company! Very poor customers service, the vests they sell are useless.

You can tell this is a generational skill set because of how easy and instinctual the dog training is for them. I'm a contractor and I'm passionate about what I do and I can see the passion and effort that comes from how they conduct their services. Most importantly, they're trustworthy and they care. These are people that know what they're doing and they're easy to deal with. I had to do a lot of searching and researching before I settled on them because I have a dog with a lot of issues and I love her to death. I'm very happy I settled on them. It ended up being the right choice.

THANK YOU! Thank you Mellow Vibes…read more We were referred here by a friend of ours who had a dog with aggression issues so we saw first hand what Mellow Vibes could do! Our dog, unlike most the dogs that I've seen in the reviews, is on the other end of the spectrum. Kaia is a 5, almost 6, year old husky/shepherd mix who has anxiety and fear and had zero socialization with the outside world and people. We adopted her at 4 years old and at that point, she was terrified of people and the world. Zero aggression, terrified of the world and a consistent flight risk. She would shut down when she saw people. If she could, she would make herself disappear from the world. Cowering, shaking, bolting, tail permanently tucked. Anything to get away. She couldn't function. We were having trouble bonding with her in the full year we had her because she was just so scared. Walks with her were full of dragging and bolting. She's pulled myself and my boyfriend over before when she was in a panic. She was incredibly stubborn with her commands. We eventually bit the bullet and contacted Mellow Vibes. They were the first trainer (and people in general) we talked to that did not judge what we did. The amount of times we heard from other trainers and people that we should not do this or that with our dog out of our desperation to build a bond with her (like letting her sleep on the bed with us or on furniture). They were the first trainers that understood where we came from and why we let her get away with certain things. We didn't feel judged for the first time or like we were being scolded. Instead, we got understanding and compassion. Paul spent 6 weeks with her. Let me tell you this, the amount of care and time he spent with her is astounding. Our dog was scared of EVERYONE but especially men, children and the elderly. Yet somehow, on our first meeting with Paul, she was calm. Paul kept us updated with her progress, pictures, videos, answering any of our questions or concerns. When it was finally time to pick her up, Paul trained us on his techniques of dealing with our dog's issues. We were met with a dog that listened to commands and when we did our walk with Paul, holy moly we were able to walk through the busy busy streets of downtown. Later that day, we were able to walk her through a busy park with so many screaming kids. We. Could. Never. Do. That. Before. EVER. She seemed to adore Paul, always looking back at him for reassurance and a bit of confidence. I almost felt bad taking her home haha. You could tell she was at ease with him and she was WELL LOVED in her time there. YOU DO NOT HELP A DOG LIKE OURS BY "BREAKING THEIR SPIRIT" OR ABUSING THEM. Now, I don't think our dog will ever be a people dog but we were taught how to manage her issues and she, herself, was slowly learning that people, objects, etc would not hurt her. At home now, she is generally a happier dog. More smiles, more tail wags, more following us around (she never wagged her tail or followed us around like this before). Mellow Vibes truly has helped her come out of her shell. They continue to follow up with us with messages, phone calls for more tips or to answer any of our questions. The rest is now up to us to keep up with the training and to continue to develop our relationship with her. You do not rehabilitate a dog like ours with anything but love, patience (oh so much patience) and compassion.

When I cancelled services with her to go to someone else she became very angry, she even dropped my key at the police station.
