Said they wouldn't groom him again. "Unfortunately, this is the last time," she said. He'd wet himself repeatedly, and his legs were too weak, she said. I wept all the way home. And then when I looked at him closely I found two places that looked like he had been cut and had bled when I specifically had it put on his record that he was not to be shaved. Pekingese are only supposed to be scissor-cut. Then I got angry because I realized he'd been hurt and was scared, and that was the reason for the excessive urination and shaking. I blame myself for not reminding them, but it doesn't matter now. I know that no one has staff anymore, but this was handled so very poorly.

I am trained in Pet First Aid and CPR so whether your dog is training with me or being groomed they will be in good hands. I am a life-long animal lover and dog enthusiast. My motto is "The Best Things in Life Are Furry!" I was born in Asheville, North Carolina and raised in Glenville, North Carolina. I learned my love for animals from my Mom and Dad. I have always dreamed of training and working with animals and thought its time to bring those dreams to life. I enrolled in the Penn Foster Grooming Program and the Dog Obedience Training Program at Animal Behavior College and here we go. . . When you think about all the dangers your dog could be exposed to in this world, it is hard to believe that the leading cause of dogs being surrendered to shelters and/or ultimately euthanized is behavior problems. Having a good relationship with your dog from the beginning, whether you get them as a puppy or adopt an older dog from a shelter is extremely important. K-9 Training Classes go along way to help you get this relationship off on the right paw.

This place is the best!!…read more My dog Schpoozi goes to HTCC for doggy daycare. I went to HTCC because I recently moved from Asheville to Candler, and our previous daycare in Asheville is too out of the way. So many things to say, so I included a short version and a detailed version Cliff notes version of this review: 5/5 for facility 5/5 for staff 5/5 for policy 5/5 from my dog's response to his encounters there 5/5 from my encounters there And the detailed review: Staff are very friendly, seems happy when working, and communicative with each other. They are always a joy to see so early in the morning drop off. I was a bit nervous about the daycare interview because my dog is leash reactive and often need special attention when being introduced to new dog friends. Kim, their manager was very assuring, and his interview turned out great! I was able to do a thorough walk through of the place before bringing my dog in to see where he would spend his days. We received a report card from his interview day with a sweet picture of him. The report included details of his day and how he behaved. Something that took some getting use to when we transitioned is their attendance cap policy. You have to call ahead to see if there's room for your dog for the day- that wasn't a thing at our old place. A bit annoying/inconvenience at first because sometimes last minute things happen and I need him there and then, but then I starting liking the fact that they don't overfill the play areas! Sometimes when I went to pick up my dog from our old daycare, I wouldn't see my dog outside and it would be because the yards are too full and he ends up spending time inside (in the kitchen, one time?) and he would come home with energy and boredom. So now I do value the daycare size limitation they HTCC has in place. They post pictures and videos of dogs at play on their Instagram, and that is always a pick me up in the middle of my day. Their hours are convenient for someone that works full time. They are also open on weekends for daycare! Which is a nice upgrade from our last daycare. My dog with slight separation anxiety literally will forget about me the moment we step out of my car and he knows he's at his happy place. That's how much he loves this place! The cherry on top that made my day was when they surprised me with this amazing, hilarious, photoshopped picture of my dog (see attached photo)!! The picture itself is amazing, but it also shows wonderful staff engagement with the dogs there. They truly do care for the dogs, enjoy working with dogs, and it shows in so many ways! General laundry list of pros: - quick pick up/drop off (haven't had to wait for available staff to bring my dog back/out) - clean facility- my dog doesn't come home smelling like kennels/pet waste or industrial strength cleaning chemicals - facility location has perfect distance away from busy roads, so I know dogs aren't stressed by traffic noise or at great risk of danger if they escape (hasn't happened with mine) - knowledgeable staff/manager has 10 years of experience in working with dogs, and is certified in dog training - well equipped facility with good spacing in play areas - proper dog size/energy group placement - super star staff!!!
