I'm running out of places to sing praises for Ruff Tales…read more The team over there has been so great to me and my dog. They've been there for training for my dogs as well as foster dogs, they've been there for grooming, they've been there to help deter bad behaviors, they helped me administer medicine to a sick dog, they're there for reliable doggy daycare, one day they even went to my house to help me out of a bind. The team over there is lead by Oscar and I'm so grateful to them for everything they do for me and my pets.

I found Ruff Tales while searching for someone who could properly train my high-energy pit bull…read morepuppy...and choosing them turned out to be one of the best decisions I've ever made for my dog...after reaching out...they quickly set me up with a consultation...that's where I met the owner...Oscar...from the moment we talked...it was clear he's extremely knowledgeable and genuinely intelligent when it comes to dog training...he walked me through exactly what would be worked on...set realistic expectations...and answered every question I had. I decided to leave my puppy with Ruff Tales for a 3-week training program...and the results were incredible...my wild little puppy came back a little man...he still has work to do...but Oscar gave him an amazing foundation that I can continue building on at home. I'm beyond pleased with the progress and the professionalism shown throughout the entire process...I already plan to bring my pup back for a follow-up in about four months. If you have a rowdy...high-energy puppy and don't know where to turn...do yourself a favor and bring them to Ruff Tales...highly recommended.

Good Lead Dog Training

Good Lead Dog Training was our first ever experience with dog training. We adopted our new dog,…read moreSadie, from the Houston SPCA in June, and with her already being three, we knew that we would need some help getting her trained. We set up an initial training session with Mindy, and things went really well. She brought us a few things the first time she came over that we did not have but would need for the training process. With Sadie's breed, she is a very smart dog and started to pick up on the training rather quickly, so we signed up for a plan for more training sessions. These training sessions were at home, in public at places like Home Depot and Memorial Park, and at group class sessions with other dogs and their owners. We worked on basic commands such as sit and stay, but went beyond the casual side and attacked the more advanced stages, such as getting Sadie to sit and stay in the middle of running. The biggest takeaway from working with Mindy was that, outside of the basic commands, she really focused on asking us what we wanted to work on and made that the task at hand. She tailored her services to our wants, and that really sticks out. She was thoughtful and explained the reasoning behind anything she wanted us to work on and would answer any questions that we had. One of our biggest things we wanted to work on was Sadie's interaction with other people, so during that very next group class, she had a training exercise with the other owners and their dogs to work on that. Good Lead Dog Training really showed the importance of dog training and that it is an essential part of being a responsible dog owner, and that benefits both the dog and the owner. Training establishes communication and mutual understanding, helping a dog learn acceptable behaviors and boundaries while strengthening their bond with their owner. Working with Mindy, we learned that training provides mental stimulation and structure, which are vital for Sadie's overall well-being. A dog that is properly trained is more confident and capable of adapting to different environments or social situations. Beyond improving obedience, training plays a critical role in the safety of the dog, their owner, and others around them. A dog that responds to basic commands can avoid dangerous situations like running into traffic or approaching other animals. Training your dog is important to them, but after working with Mindy of Good Lead Dog Training, we learned the importance of our role as well. Taking the exercises we were given in class and working on them between sessions not only improved Sadie's behavior (which was never bad by the way) but also improved our relationship with her. If you want a dog trainer who is personable and cares, we highly recommend Good Lead Dog Training. Mindy is great at what she does and will work hard to make sure that your personal goals for your dog are met and set you up for success.

We're about half way through the training sessions now, and I can already see the progress. If…read moreyou're patient and committed to training with your dog you will see the results. You'll get plenty of support you need along the way as long as you'll ask for it. I text Michael, sometimes daily, all my questions and concerns regarding the training, and I've never been left without an answer! He'll also provide a ton of materials (videos, books, articles) you need to familiarize yourself with to set you up for success. Me and my dogs are working on solving the fence fighting issue, and so far one of them is actually responsive to my efforts. When I reached out to Michael I didn't think that much can be done, but now I see a light at the end of a very, very long tunnel :). All our sessions have been online so far, as few days before our first scheduled meeting the stay at home order was placed. Online conference worked just as well for us, and we didn't have to delay the training any longer. A recent addition- online "support group" where his customers can share ideas and chat is a great idea too! Overall, I couldn't be happier with the decision to work with Michael.

We contacted Michael for help with our big golden retriever…read morepuppy. He was overexcited most of the time. Playtime was not fun for us because he would get too worked up and end up with what I called a "zoomy meltdown", which involved a lot of jumping and nipping. Michael taught us to recognize the signs before he got out of control and helped us to keep OUR stress level down and redirect his energy. Finn is much more relaxed now, around us and guests. Thanks to the training, we have an energetic sweet boy instead of a lot of stress and worry.

We love Lone Star Dog Training. Travis is a fantastic trainer. Our pitbull Rosie arrived in…read moreour garage in July hot, emaciated, and starving. We initially thought we'd foster her for adoption due to her dog aggression issues. After working with Travis, we decided togive Rosie a forever home ourselves. We brought Travis in to privately train her so she didn't have to deal with the stress of a group setting and because we wanted a tailored training program. With Lone Star Dog Training, we received an excellent job. Travis educated us about how training is important and what results he felt we could see. Over the course of 4 months, Rosie went from being aggressive toward our other dogs to feeling safe and comfortable with them. She's even adopted our 12 year old border terrier as her sister. Rosie has progressed from a frightened stray who did not wag her tail or understand how to take affection, to bounding and leaping with joy when she sees her people. She now seeks out our affections and looks forward to spending time with us. If not for Lone Star Dog Training, we would not have decided to keep her. It showed us what a wonderful, fun and loving dog Rosie is. Thank you, Travis , for your dedication and patience with us.

Hicks Farms Boarding and Training

I found this wonderful place for my dogs when we are taking longer trips! I love the fact that…read morethey're further out from the city and have property for the dogs to be able to wonder like they used to when we lived in the suburbs. My dogs are accustomed to being around, just our family and don't always be friend new people readily. They immediately took to the owner, Brian. Our dogs are on a diet where they have a mixture of dry and wet food that require refrigeration or freezing. That was no problem at all for the owner to accommodate. The fellas looked well cared for when my son picked them up! My son forgot to check for the dogs blankets when he picked them up and Brian kindly drove them down to the city where we live so that the dogs would have them. I will definitely use Hicks Farm again and I highly recommend them!

Zelda, our German shepherd/husky mix, boarded with Brian for nearly two weeks while we were on…read morevacation. Before she went, I'd worked with her on sit, down, take it, leave it, and some spins with decent success. Brian took what she had and built on it, adding heel, come when called, turn, and stay. He returned a noticeably different dog. When we hit some bumps shortly after, he came back out and spent a solid hour with me going over what was actually happening...not just commands and corrections, but why she was behaving the way she was and what she needed from me to feel secure. (Spoiler: she needed me to be more confident and consistent.) He has a way of cutting straight to what matters without overcomplicating it, and more than once he said exactly the right thing at exactly the right moment. What struck me most across both experiences was how much genuine wisdom he brings to his work. He's clearly someone who has learned his craft through deep experience and observation, and it shows in every interaction with the dog and with the owner. On top of all of that, his pricing was incredibly reasonable; boarding and training combined for what many trainers charge for training alone. We felt genuinely taken care of. Kind, patient, perceptive, and exactly what we needed. Highly recommend.

We've been taking our German Shepherd, Crosby, to PetSuites Cypress for three years, but after…read morecountless inconsistencies, we can no longer trust them with her care. At first, we appreciated their services, but over time, the issues piled up: - Inadequate cameras in the play area that don't cover the full space, leaving us unsure of what really happens. - "Pawgress" reports included photos of other dogs, not Crosby, making us question if she was even getting the attention we paid for. - Fearful reactions--Crosby started shaking and whining at drop-off, which she never used to do. - Unfulfilled services: Multiple times, we paid for grooming (including Furmination) only for her to come home completely untouched, despite wearing a bandana like she'd been groomed. Staff apologized and promised refunds, but nothing changed. The final straw? After her last "grooming," Crosby came home filthy, stinking like creek water, and with thick layer of loose fur--proof she hadn't been brushed, let alone Furminated. When I complained, they offered a refund (still not received). It's heartbreaking to leave after three years, but PetSuites has repeatedly failed our trust. Crosby deserves better, and so do you. See the photo--this is how much fur came out after her supposed "groom." Unacceptable. Do better, PetSuites. Even then, we won't be back.

After all that time and after speaking with someone on the phone extensively the day before, I was told that he was missing the dog flu vaccine and that it's required. The person who I spoke with the day before did not mention this. Also, this is what it says on their website: Recommended Vaccine Canine Influenza: We accept the 12-month Canine Influenza vaccine (It is not required but is recommended when having your dog in any setting with other dogs) So the employee who was trying to check me in and the employee helping her lied! What a waste of my time!

We chose to train our new dog Daisy that we adopted from the SPCA with the 8 basic & advanced…read morelessons and it was worth every penny! Our trainer, Monica, was excellent with Daisy and what I loved most about her was that she would explain to us how she was training our dog and also why she would do something a certain way. A lot of times she would comment about how this reinforces some sort of behavior or would boost Daisy's confidence, etc. At one point of our training Daisy didn't take well to the previous lesson (down lesson) and Daisy wasn't receptive to the next training session and was extremely nervous and jittery. Monica picked up on this right away and instead of just charging through, took a step back to assess the situation and told us that this lesson would be free since Daisy wasn't herself and even considered bringing another trainer in. We were extremely appreciative of this gesture and found it to be very considerate and professional. We were a little nervous starting out the training because Daisy is an extremely sensitive and submissive dog, but at the end of the training (which was today) her confidence levels are much higher and she seems to be a much happier dog!!! Daisy is far from perfect but her discipline and manners are getting better every day and we love seeing her progress and growth. We highly recommend Off Leash K9 Training. We did a ton of research and even met with other companies but we could not have been happier with our choice.

If you're looking for a trainer, I can't say enough good things about Heather at Sea Dog!…read more She's done incredible work with Valor, a dog we rescued from a fighting ring. The work she has poured into him has literally brought me to tears, because he's come so far since he came through her doors. Heather doesn't just train dogs, she changes lives. Her heart is fully here for the dogs. She genuinely wants both dogs and their owners to live better, more enriched lives. Her approach is all about creating calm, confident, regulated dogs while also making things easier and more manageable for the humans. And something exclusive to this place, is they have a veterinarian on site, Dr. B! This is a selling point for me, knowing that medical needs could be addressed in the moment if necessary. If you're on the fence or just starting to look around for a trainer, call Heather. Seriously. She'll put you at ease immediately, and you'll know you made the right choice within minutes of talking to her. Heather - thank you for everything you've done for Valor and everything you continue to do. We appreciate you so much at Santo's Sanctuary & Rescue. Heather, Dr. B and her team truly care about the dogs, the people, and the community they serve.
