16 hours agoNEW In…read moreresponse to Lori "Bachinsky"'s review; I pet sat for this family, as stated for three years. In those three years their male dog started showing territorial and aggressive behavior. I have text messages from the owner from 2021 where Lori voices concern to me by his behavior. In October 2021, she schedules an at home nail trim with me and meets my fiance. Her and her husband both are outside for two of the nail trims and then go inside for the dog who was showing signs of aggression. Also to note during the time that I took care of the dogs, Lori's parents were both at home and more than once commented on the male dogs behavior. The male dog ended up attacking my fiance; I immediately let Lori know; who then also let me know that the dog went after her husband and she has been concerned. I still have all of these messages. Two days later the male dog pinned me on the wall; I let Lori know and urged her to get her dog to the vets to make sure there is no underlying issue, and urged her to get the dog some help. As many of us know, there are far too many dog attacks that end up near fatal (recently in Texas two dogs attacked their pet sitter, and there was also a recent attack in an elevator with a woman and her own dog). A lot of times minor issues are overlooked and then the problem escalates into a far worse scenario, and the dog usually ends up having to be euthanized because the problems have been neglected. When I let Lori know that I would no longer be available for services, it was out of concern for everyone's safety and well being. My main concern was the dogs health and temperament. As far as the leash comment- never once has she urged me to use leashes, since the dogs have such a space to run. E collars were provided and used for the dogs so they could run. She has seen and appreciated pictures of the dogs without any leashes (one she developed herself and framed in her home). The current sitter she uses also never has leashes on the dogs. Lori's keys were returned via certifies mail within ten business days to avoid further ussues. . And, lastly; if there were issues as she stated, she would not have used my services for 3 years. I thank everyone who has continued to use my services and knows the value of the services and knowledge I provide

His Dog Ziti is there with him everytime I go in anyway He has day care, pet supplies, grooming & training. He also does therapy for older/weakened dogs with Hydro-Therapy and cold laser treatments. Paul also brought in Janet Mannear who is the one who does all the training. She is great! Between the two of them they saved my dog's life. (story below) I was the third person to adopt this dog (he was 10 days from his first birthday when I adopted him) He is currently 86lbs black and brown brindle, Great Dane, Lab, Pit bull. My dog is hyper head strong and just plain strong. When I got him he listened to nothing, no commands were ever taught to him. My hands were constantly bleeding because he pulled that bad when I walked him. My arms were complete bruises, not just a few you could not see skin color from my wrists to above my elbows, because that's what he was taught before me that is just how he played. Jump and grab arm with teeth, and try to wrestle. I also ended up with my wrist sprained, twice. I literally could not put up with it much longer and I had been told by the kennel I adopted him if this didn't work and he came back he would be put down. Most of my friends and family could not understand my devotion to keeping this dog and keeping him alive. I had offers from them to take him back to the shelter if I couldn't handle the hand over. I kept telling them no and I am very glad that that was my decision. I work in the Plains area and when I saw the sign go up for Pawsitive Pup I got very excited. I went in, talked to Paul and explained the above situation. Paul told me that there would be a training class starting the following week and I signed up right then. He also gave me a few things to try with my dog in the mean time to help me out (at no charge, I'm not kidding when I tell you he cares about you and your pets). I have had my dog (Ranger) in here weekly since the doors of Pawsitive Pup opened. Ranger graduated his 6 week Pawsitive Pup Basic Obedience Training last night and I am amazed at his improvement! He sits, comes when called, lays down, stays all on command! (well mostly we are still working on this he listens about 85% of the time now, where before it was 0% of the time) Ranger is so much calmer now and I am extremely happy to say my arms look like arms again! He is a different dog that the one I brought home exactly 2 months ago today. I will be signing him up for the Pawsitive Pup Advanced Training as soon as it starts. I am very excited to continue his training and socialization with Paul Janet and everyone at Pawsitive Pup!

I never leave reviews but I wish someone had warned me of this before my dog was subject to a week…read morehere so I hope this helps someone else. I boarded my dog here in June and was absolutely disgusted. When I picked him up he had a deep scratch down his nose. I assumed it was from a run-in with another dog and no big deal so I ignore and take him out to the car. When I go to lift him in he smelled so strongly like cleaning product and was covered with poop on his rear (this has never happened at home, he is a large dog). I go inside to ask for a paper towel or something to clean him up and no one comes out so after standing there for a few minutes I just leave and go put him in my car. He had mass amounts of hair coming off him so I give him a bath as soon as we get home and notice he has an ear infection (hasn't had one since he left the pound) and his paw paws are peeling off and cracking I can't even imagine what would cause this. He used to go into his crate no problem and it took 3 days for him to willingly go into his crate again. When I initially left for vacation and contacted them for an update it took 48+ hours to respond. This isn't just unacceptable it's boarder line animal abuse. I would never, under any circumstances take my dog there again.

I first met Nikki back in the late 90's when i had 2 cocker spaniels go through her training. They were great dogs because Nikki played a part in their lives. We used her training techniques throughout their 16 & 17 years. My most recent contact with Nikki has been in relation to her latest litter of Vom Evolution puppies as I have been thinking about getting another dog. I completely trust Nikki, her experience and proven results. Her knowledge and experience specifically with working line german shepherd dogs and all dogs in general makes her one of the best trainers and resources in Pennsylvania. You should also know that she has won many awards, titles and competitions through her hard work and dedication to all dogs and the german shepherd breed. I am editing this to add that Nikki's training facility is spotless. It is easily one of the cleanest animal facilities I have ever been to. She takes pride in her work and it shows.

Her experience and knowledge of the german shepherd dog breed is beyond any research you could find. You want a breeder who cares about the breed and breeds to make the breed better, that is Nikki. She cares about all of her dogs and their progeny. I contacted her because she recently had a litter due. She spent much time with me asking me what I was looking for (I am looking for a family dog I can train and do schutzhund with as opposed to a police k9 dog, or a family dog, ) and answering all of my questions. I very much got the sense from her that she will stay involved with us to help us adjust to life with a puppy (we have a cat and she offered to assist us in how to teach the puppy boundaries with the cat). This is a characteristic that is very important to me in a breeder because it shows me that she cares about the dog and where he/she is going and that she cares about us too and that we have a good experience. I don't live in PA anymore and she offered to look into the clubs out here and make recommendations on where we can train. This is so important to me and I am very grateful.
