Strongly recommend!…read more To say staff at Tri Canine Campus are wonderful, loving, passionate and patient isn't what sets them apart. Most people who work with animals are that way. They don't follow a step-by-step guide written by corporate on how to train a dog. They understand each individual dog AND owner need to learn in a way that works for them, on their path, and at their speed. A technique that works for one dog doesn't mean it's going to work on all dogs - even if they are in the same household. Same applies to the owners. TCC has an arsenal of techniques to quickly apply to make training for both dog and owner click. Since they don't follow a step-by-step guide, you only pass and move on when you successfully pass the goals of the course, not because the guide says in 6 weeks you pass regardless of goal success score. The staff know each other's strengths and weaknesses and work in a very collaborative environment. They are all familiar with my dog and me. Not only does this help them continuously grow to stay the best of the best, I am not hesitant to ask any of them for help and they are not hesitant to help me. But wait, there's more! They also offer reactivity classes. We are exposed to different behaviors, sounds, equipment, and actions that happen in the real world so when we are outside the comfort of our home and the Campus, it's not startling. Such as the child running by dragging a toy, it's not for us to chase. Or the people using a walker or crutches are not aliens to protect the family from. Or the music thumping from the car passing by is nothing to be scared of. I'm not done yet!! Pack walks. Brilliant!! It's like the reactivity class but actually in the real world. Locations are mixed up between parks and businesses so you get a variety of the unexpected distractions and interruptions. I honestly don't know how to praise Tri Canine Campus enough.

I can't recommend Tri Canine Campus enough! After working with two other dog training companies and…read morespending over 12 weeks (& hundreds of dollars) trying to help my Frenchton, Yoda's reactivity toward other dogs, I was at my wit's end. Within five minutes of our very first lesson, Yoda pretty much stopped barking at other dogs -- something I never thought would happen. Tri Canine's behavior modification program truly works, and they take the time to understand the "why" behind each behavior. The trainers (Mike, Jule & Ashley) are so knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely care about helping both the dogs and their owners succeed. Now Yoda can even play with other dogs under supervision, which still amazes me (pictures for proof). If you're looking for reactive dog training, behavior modification, or obedience training, Tri Canine Campus is hands down the best place to go. I drive 35-40 mins each way just to take him there because it is 1000% worth every minute in the car! They've completely transformed our lives!

I moved to Auburn Hills a few months ago for work. I have to travel for short periods here and…read morethere so I have to say I was lucky to stumble onto sher meer kennels. The other woman who reviewed this place, I'm sorry, but she must just fall into that 2% of people who are just never satisfied. Yes they are only open certain hours, but the voicemail has her cell phone number. And if you couldn't live without your greyhounds for a night i think you need a mental evaluation. My dog is REALLY shy and super attached to me. She doesn't like change very much. I was apprehensive bringing her to sher meer being a lesser known, older type of place. I honestly didn't think she'd like it, but i had to travel so there weren't a ton of options. I went there beforehand to check the place out. It's old, the old lady smokes butts inside, but i mean, who cares? Your dog isn't hanging out with her in the office anyways. Plus, she's a total sweetheart. She'll talk your ear off. She knows all the vets and breeders and shelters in the area and can recommend any of those services you might need. Her help is fantastic. I've only seen two ladies, one looks about 29, the other is probably around 40 (I think her name is carol). They're both FANTASTIC with my dog. I have a 130 pound mastiff. She doesn't do anything she doesn't want to do. She will just lay there in a heap and you have to drag her around. But she LOVES these ladies and this kennel. The first time we went she was pretty reluctant, but we've been back a few tines since then and she loves it, hops right in the car, walks right inside. This says something to me about how much she enjoys herself when she's there. Their rates are reasonable ($30/day for my dog). The staff is friendly. The woman who owns the place is a super nice, sweet old lady who is probably an awesome grandma to some lucky kids. If you want to pay another $10-20/day you can bring your animal to camp bow wow in clarkston and have a live video feed to see your dog. And thats great. But honestly, sher-meet takes great care of my dog who is shy and fussy, and believe me its no small task. Highly recommended and I will bring my dog there every time I travel. I can't say enough as to how thankful I am and how great they are.

I had never boarded my dogs (both Italian Greyhounds) until this past 4th of Jul. I did a thorough…read moreinterview with several local pet boarding houses. Finally, I interviewed the worse for the wear, haggard nicotine bag of a woman that owns the place a few weeks prior to making the decision to board my dogs at her kennel, Sher-Meer. Her staff, Robin (who was the caregiver of my dogs) assured me that she had worked with shy dogs in the past and I could rest assure knowing my pets were in her care. The db owner and I talked for nearly an hour while she lit up a cigarette in my presence with little regard to whether I cared about the cigarette smoke drifting into my face. This should have been clue #1. I asked for a brochure for the business, she didn't have one: clue #2. She told me the cost for boarding was $20 a day per dog. She told me it would be wise to bring my own food and water as to retain a healthy digestive system for my dogs during their stay. No discount for multiple dogs (or lack of use of their food/water) despite the fact that they roomed together. I dropped my dogs off on Sat morning, Jul 2. Robin was again fantastic and took my dogs (especially the shy one) with ease. The owner never moved from her chair behind the counter where she smoked like a chimney. I brought my dogs immunization records which were never verified before my departure because she said it would take a while to go through the records to get them into the computer: clue #3. What if my records weren't up to date? Off we went, no contract signed, no drop-off verification, nothing. We intended on returning home Tues but I told the owner there was a possibility of us not arriving until Wed to pick up our dogs. I had informed her that if we could pick them up on Tues, that it would be later in the day. Tues came around and I called her to see what time I actually had to pick them up by as I wasn't sure she ever told me. She told me 6:00 pm. No kidding, our road trip home landed us in the area at 6:10 pm, so the dogs had to stay another night. On Wed, I arrived to pick up my dogs. Nobody was there - there was a note on the door that said, out to lunch. Please call. I was livid. The owner finally showed up in her car, and shuffled to the door. She then informed me that nobody could get my dogs because her staff was out to lunch and she could NOT go back in the kennel to get my dogs. Mind you, the lady is elderly, weathered and doesn't appear to be in the greatest health, I get it. But what did she mean - that she couldn't go get my dogs (they are 10 and 14 lbs)? She's the freakin' owner! I am guessing her health prevents her from doing anything but sitting in her chair with a cancer stick in her mouth. She told me the charge for services, which was well in excess of the $200 bill I was expecting to get. Here are the following items she failed to mention during our hour consultation prior to my booking the dogs at her facility: 1. They do not accept credit cards (I had to run back out with kids and all to get money out of the bank). 2. There is a surcharge for the holiday stay 3. She said, I could have picked the dogs up on Tuesday until 7:00 pm - but on the phone Tuesday when I inquired, she told me 6:00 pm. I could have had my pups back home and paid for one less day in that stinkin' hole. How does she get away with it you might ask... her response, "it's on the door." In fact, there were little sticky notes all over the door. However, I don't spend my time outside the business reading the contents on the door! I was angry and I told her she mislead me. She said, she was a small family business and wanted to know what I wanted her to do. I told her she should have confirmed during our consult that I saw the notes on the door. She said, she couldn't remember everything, that's why she posted it on the door. I told her that I would like for her to charge me the stated $20 per day and to eat the surcharge at the very least. She refused. I told her she should have a brochure to eliminate having to remember anything besides passing out the brochure to all customers. Customers deserve to have a contract, or a detailed description of the charges they are going to acquire as a result of the services provided. They shouldn't be forced to read the sticky notes on the door. I told her I was surprised she hadn't learned simple business etiquette after all of her supposed years in the business. I told her I wouldn't be returning and I would make sure all were aware of her schemes. She lost a new customer with two dogs. What a fool - because she wouldn't wave a surcharge that she didn't tell me about... because she wouldn't waive the extra night stay which was at the fault of her own because she can't decide what time her business opens/closes. After I got my dogs, I thanked their caregiver and got my ducks in a row to leave when she screamed at me to get out and to never come back.
