Not only did I get pictures and video updates during the 2 weeks, but when I returned I was trained on how to continue the desired behaviors learned. I didn't tell my girl I enjoyed a vacation while she was hard at work, but it allowed for me to see what a difference can be made when I don't let her get away with things because I don't want to hurt her feelings or make her think I don't love her. Love this company and their passion for what they do! 5 stars!

I would strongly recommend against this company and location, unfortunately…read more I attended multiple sessions with my dog last Fall on a routine weekly basis, including Obedience and then several Agility courses once he had graduated to that level. The instructors were all helpful and I loved seeing my dog's progress. We were diligent about attending and practicing. When both my grandfather and mother fell ill and died within 3 months of each other during the holiday season of 2024, I could no longer make the sessions with my dog. Truly they were forgotten during this time of extreme hardship. A couple months later when I could breathe again, I remembered our sessions and went to reserve a class but couldn't because my package had expired. I called and was told that nothing could be done, as this was the policy. These are privately-owned franchise locations, and the owners have the ability to create and revise policies to help their customers - it is their choice to take a customer's money in upfront packages and then refuse to extend any goodwill or flexibility. The classes I attended were rarely full. It would not have hurt their business in any way to allow me to utilize the classes I had already purchased. Looking at other reviews, they have a pattern of treating customers this way. If they had let me use the classes that I bought, I surely would've kept coming and even bought more sessions. But it's not worth it to me to support a business that treats its customers like this.

We have been going to classes since she was just over 6th months old, we were biweekly/weekly for the first year and a half and now we pop in every few months for practice. We did a few private classes to troubleshoot issues and those were very productive and I felt the staff went above and beyond helping my dog overcome her fear of the teeter. The staff is incredible, they are all welcoming, kind and so knowledgeable. They have great suggestions in fixing behaviors and ate always willing to help with different training techniques. I would still go weekly if I could, and I fully plan to take all of my future puppies/dogs here for training and socializing.

I've been hesitant to write this review due to the fact that I know exactly how the owners will…read morerespond. But I decided that others should be made aware. If you have a fearful and anxious, three month old puppy, which was stated in all of the paperwork, then DO NOT hire Pawfection. If you want your three month old, fearful and an anxious puppy to be labeled as "aggressive "after being blown in the face twice by a canister of CO2 then do not hire Pawfection. If you want your three month old puppy to get the piss, literally, scared out of him by getting blasted in the face with CO2, then hire Pawfection. If you want your puppy to cower against a window or in their crate, their safe place, but then get approached by the person that scared the living piss out of him with the canister of CO2 and try to put a leash on him, where he gives a warning growl, which then labels your three month old fearful and anxious puppy, who was just scared to death and approached in his safe zone by some stranger, reaching over his head to put a leash on him then hire Pawfection. If you want to sit through an almost 2 hour PowerPoint presentation of almost 90 slides of outdated information that you can find in the Internet, then higher Pawfection. If you want to be told what to purchase off of Amazon, after learning that she invested in Amazon years ago, then hire Pawfection. If you want to listen to them talk poorly about their competitors (by name), speak poorly of food companies while promoting a specific brand, or listen to anything negative that isn't related to them, then hire Pawfection. If you want to learn more about perfection and how involved they are with the industry and you want to learn how they can benefit if you purchase things off Amazon, then hire Pawfection. If you want your trainer to come 30 minutes late while your puppy is in the crate because you're told that the puppy needs to be in the crate during the first part of the training (keep in mind he's 3 months so his bladder isn't fully formed), then higher Pawfection. If you want a total of 20 minutes of actual interaction with your puppy for training, keep in mind a three month old fearful and anxious puppy, then hire Pawfection. If you want a "one size fits all, special sauce training", then higher, Pawfection. If a toddler were afraid to enter their classroom at the start of the school year, would you use a scare tactic to get them to do what you want them to and not address the fear and anxiety? I cannot speak for other methods of training or other dogs who need training aside from a fearful and anxious puppy, but if you have a three month old fearful and anxious puppy, then my recommendation is DO NOT hire Pawfection. If my dog was labeled "aggressive " (keep in mind what caused the cowering and growl) due to being scared in his safe place that was intruded, then why would they book us for a puppy play date at their facility with other puppies for the following week? I'm ready for the response as I know that it will be defensive, blaming, rude, aggressive, and no accountability is taken. I can predict this due to other negative reviews that were left behind and how the owners respond. But I feel that dog owners who have a puppy very similar to mine should see this review. We used zero of their tactics and zero of their recommendations. We found better products and better food than recommended. We found a different trainer and now our puppy is doing amazing and it's thriving. Perfection was a waste of money, but a lesson learned. Probably less than one star of that was an option.

I cannot say enough great things about Wagging Willow and Susan! Have you ever met someone and felt…read morethat they were doing what they were born to do? That's Susan. Her training program is fun, informative, and effective. I first came to Susan after a recommendation from a close friend. My dog Chloe needed some help learning her proper manners. After the very first class I knew we were in good hands. Susan's training is based on positive reinforcement. Chloe passed through the first and second courses with flying colors. She is now in her third course and is on track to graduate with the Canine Good Citizen certification. We recently adopted another dog that needs training and I knew exactly where to go! Ruby has learned so much after only two classes! If you have a puppy or a dog that needs training I highly recommend Wagging Willow. You will have fun with your pupper, learn a lot, and form a deeper bond with your furry family member.

Their entire team has provided the best possible experience we could ever expect from a dog training service. Both the in-home one-on-one trainings and the group trainings have been such a blessing to our miniature dachshund puppies. The improvement they have shown has been unbelievable and we owe it all to the Wagging Willow team. We want to give an extra special shoutout to Susan for the constant tips and advice about food, potty training, and literally anything else we need. She puts in so much extra time and effort. She has truly gone above and beyond our expectations for a dog trainer. I can't imagine a better experience than we've had with Susan. If you have a dog, you need training with Wagging Willow. I recommend them to any dog owner, novice (like us) or experienced. Tell them Hazel and Honey sent you. :)

I met Tai and Lexi at a decoy seminar In April of this year, Tai was the Instructor. Tai is…read moreknowledgeable, precise, and was able to break down the science when it comes to decoying a dog. Since The decoy seminar, I have worked very closely with Tai and Lexi when it comes to obedience and bite work with dogs. Throughout the months, I got to see in person and through their social media pages that they are meant for this profession. They are able to work with all breeds and size of the dog does not matter. I have seen clients walk out the front door with smiles on their faces with their dogs are also really well behaved because of the work that Lexi, Tai, and also their trainer Max does daily. A lot of people always talk about wanting to have more obedient dogs. This is the place to go.

I recently used their services to board my two dogs. They had previously been boarded at another…read morefacility but they were fully booked and Woof Tang, while quite a drive, was highly rated and had the cameras for their rooms that we love to have. First of all the price is great in my opinion. Their facility has plenty of play space and the livery room we got was large. We always want, maybe even need, to be able to check in on them. While on past stays we would look and find them pacing and awooing all night. Something about this place made them zen. They looked out the windows, climbed and snuggled in their bed. We signed up for both of them to get a bath before pick up but due to some error with their system only our little guy got his, which was sad because if we had to pick we would have picked her. For our two dogs it was $115 a day for the luxury suite. When we arrived to pick them up we expected our Dachshund to scream like he does when we come home and our Auggie to go crazy and we were so disappointed when they came up to us like okay cool, summer camp is over? Not one cry or bark, no jumping or crazy tail wags. Next time we hope to board them for training. Our dogs would have required 3 weeks and that just didn't work for us right now.

Gary has expanded the agility course, I've posted a few pictures of the new course- it's HUGE. I'm always surprise to see my pup spring over some of those high triple jumps! Whether you are in a regular group class, training or private class, I could not say enough good things about our continued experiences here.

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.
