She was also able to explain a few things that I was unaware of as a dog owner. I have been using the wrong shampoo.

See you in 6 weeks Lisa!

And out of all the groomers I had called before hand she was the most reasonably priced! Knowing that I don't have to pay and arm and leg to have my dog groomed every 2 months really makes me feel much better. Sadie looks so much good and you can tell she feels better as well!!! She's been in such a good mood since her grooming , we are both very pleased and will defiantly be going back and recommending to anyone who needs a great groomer! :)

I tell our trainers Katie and Nicole all of the time that they are life savers. We brought our puppy here at 1 years old - a small wild, energetic Jack Russell who knew every time I was on a video meeting to bark his head off and embarrass me EVERY TIME! Walks were out of the question since he would pull on the leash to the point he would choke himself... sitting on the deck was a nightmare in our own backyard because he would bark at the wind (yes, the wind), the leaves moving, the birds and obviously the neighbors. Does this sound familiar? I questioned my decision of getting a puppy and then I found Max K9. We did a 3 week Board & Train where I was super hesitant of dropping him off (because no one wants to leave their baby anywhere), but they were so good with sending video progress and pictures and including my husband and I in the process. I joke with everyone that I think they implanted a program into his brain! Lol! The transformation was unreal. We were instantly able to communicate with him and actually go on a walk.. outside in the real world. What a breath of fresh air, literally! Max K9 has given us the ability to live an active lifestyle and have our pup enjoy it with us. Hikes, traveling, morning walks, trips to the store, brewery visits, long car rides out of state... you name it. I would do it all over again if I had to without a question. So if you've made it this far, thanks for reading. I hope this helps you make your decision to having a better relationship with your pup and enjoying life with them every step of the way.

I am SO thankful for Sherry at Maximum K9. I don't know if I can put into words how helpful she has…read morebeen in training our Stormie. Stormie is a rescue who we adopted in 2019 and underwent 2 surgeries in 2021 due to bilateral CCL surgery. She was cooped up for an extended amount of time during recovery. We were unable to take her outside without her reacting to other dogs and sometimes even people. Stormie even gave us difficulty when we wanted to go for a short walk. It was so frustrating and difficult taking her out in public that we needed help. We have heard of Maximum K9 from many of our friends and even the great reviews I've seen on dog groups and online. I called to inquire about the types of training (group vs. individual) and it was clear that we needed to take private lessons. We signed up for a package of 6 lessons with Sherry that were one hour long for 6 consecutive weeks. Our first day, Sherry got to know about Stormie's behaviors - positive and negative, what we were having difficulty with and what our goals were. Sherry worked with us each week when training Stormie (and me) on how to modify or progress a skill. We learned how to heel, which we never were taught from another trainer elsewhere, and the importance of heel. We were given homework on what to practice from the training sessions to continue our work outside of the facility. Sherry helped Stormie become less dog reactive in a safe manner at Maximum K9. Stormie was slowly exposed to the board and train dogs in the facility that had various levels of size and temperament. Each week, Stormie learned how to follow her commands and not react to different dogs. With Sherry's consistent training, Stormie was able to heel with me in a circle with other dogs and sit next to them without any reaction at all. I cannot find the words to thank Sherry for helping Stormie and myself. I came into Maximum K9 with Stormie trying to pull my arm off and reacting to dogs in the lobby to now leaving with my arm back intact and her in a nice heel. I will refer all my dog lovers and friends to Maximum K9 and Sherry going forward! Thank you again!

There were plenty of dogs showing off with neat tricks and the place is spacious enough that it doesn't feel cramped. The kids go into a groups of 2-3 and takes turn going to sectioned areas to play with the trained pups. I was afraid that my daughter with eczema would have a scratching fit from the dogs, but they were all well-groomed and no odor at all. All the toys I touched didn't feel grimy and old. I can tell they take good care of this facility. A big plus is it's air conditioned and plenty of seats for the adults! Lots of times at kids' parties, the parents have to find odd things to sit on or stand, which is not a problem here. If you are looking to throw a birthday party, this is your place!

I searched online, found this center, and scheduled a session in the interim. I got to spend time with the sweetest dog, who snuggled up and hung out with me for the duration of my time there.

A second dog and his owner came by too and I was able to see them practicing in the agility/obstacle course pen and play with him as well.

However, it was so uncomfortable to deal with one member of she staff. She was dismissive of my husband and I because we both work- although my husband works from home. The fact that she would verbalize such clearly sexist and classist tones to customers paying a STEEP price tag is insulting to say the least. She also was not up front about our dogs parentage until we picked him up! While I have no complaints about my pup- it still indicates poor professionalism.

Title: I should have adopted a dog…read more On August 31st, I called Petite Pets. Our family was in double mourning. First, our 16 year old poodle had passed away. Second, our family had traveled all the way to Manhattan to adopt a Bichon...only to find out she had passed away before we arrived. I told myself I would NEVER buy a dog. Adopt don't shop. Right? Well not when you drive home from Manhattan with crying 2.5 year old twins. Tinsy went to heaven? Chloe too? Why mommy? So, I called the puppy store near my house; Petite Pets. A lovely woman named Beth encouraged me to come in, "We have the perfect dog for you...he's a little older...his name is Griffin". I wisely came in without my children because I didn't want them to be let down again. However, I fell in love at first sight with this little guy. His sad eyes, his long curly hair, the fact that he was a "leftover". I promptly called my husband and had him bring my girls over to meet him. Beth was right, Griffin was the perfect dog for us. At the time, $1150 was more money than we could afford and frankly against my morals and beliefs but we were IN LOVE. Beth explained that Griffin had been heavily discounted because he was "older" at 7 months old. Now here's when I regretted my decision: this past weekend, after owning Griffin for only 5 weeks...he started to limp, and not bear any weight on one leg. Concerned, my husband brought him right in to Dr. Alison Rhein of Dix Hill Animal Hospital. Incidentally, Dr Ali is also the owner of Petite Pets. At that time she diagnosed our poor Griffin with Legge Perthes, a hereditary disease that needs to be surgically corrected. The xrays cost 350$ and the surgery will cost $2500. Wow! We thought, "I'm sure Dr. Ali and Petite Pets will DO THE RIGHT THING." Wrong. Very wrong. Petite Pets has offered to offset the cost by 1150$(the original cost of our Griffin). This means, our grieving family will be out $1700. This $1700 is probably NOTHING for the owner of two businesses in Huntington BUT for our young family it will be the difference between being able to afford pre-school, a family vacation or even Christmas presents. We know our sweet fur baby needs the surgery and therefore we will pay.

Posting his official breed certificate. Again, it shows they deal with reputable and honest breeders. Exactly 50% Cavalier and 50% poodle in DNA blood line. This dog did not come from a puppy mill. It takes expertise and knowledge to breed to this caliber. DNA is everything when it comes to genetic personality expectations, traits and overall intelligence and or personality characteristics of the dog. After my beloved Sparky passed away I decided to adopt a new puppy. I took a ride out to Bow Wow and was greeted very warmly with care and respect. After talking with Maryanne, she got an idea of what I was looking for. she picked out a male Cavapoo for me. My total experience was very nice, informative and left with my new puppy Charlie. This is helping my grieving process and continuing my love for Sparky will go on. Bow woo is very clean and professional, they seem to have very good informative relationships with the breeders and make sure they keep a high-level of legal requirements and go far beyond what is necessary and making sure they have healthy and stable puppies. You can feel more than comfortable knowing you will be treated fairly, professionally, and with respect. I highly recommend Bow Woo! A++ from this happy daddy! Much love THANK YOU FOR CHARLIE

The biggest issue was she did not listen well to my requests about the style we wanted for his face, she just basically did her own thing. I asked for an adjustment, and again she acted like she heard what I said but then did something different. When I told her that what she did wasn't what I had in mind, she said my instructions were vague. That's fine, but if she didn't feel she understood what I wanted, I wish she would have asked some questions. Anyway, she is a fine groomer, but if you want your dog done here bring pictures of what you want and overly emphasize exactly what you want, or you may not get what you are wanting.
