Dana and Carol gave us a handbook full of information, were organized, enthusiastic, obviously love what they do, and gave clear instructions. Sure - as a previous reviewer said, you can find the same information online, but having it demonstrated and being able to ask questions is invaluable, not to mention the socialization and fun that the puppies partake in. There is just no comparison. Training a puppy is a long term endeavor that can't be accomplished in a few classes, but the Byrnes gave us a great head start and foundation to build on. I wouldn't go anyplace else.

Most the reptiles and hamsters had little signs in their tanks that said "I went home for Christmas." There was one cat left in the adoption room and she looked so sad seeing another cat being adopted. I hope she got a home for Christmas because she was a beautiful calico. I went there to pick up cat food for my cat and ended up buying Christmas presents for my cat and my mom's cat. The lines were long but moved steadily. Overall, not a bad experience and I saw a woman pushing a duck in a baby carriage so that was wild.

We are experienced dog owners: beginning with…read morea pair of Irish setters in the 70's, Christopher and Robin, and then two golden retrievers, one at a time, Zaggy and Brady and a Charlie, a Springer Spaniel, the brains of the operation. When an ad for Setter pups appeared in the SR this past February, following our retirement, the opportunity to bring a pup back into our lives was purely irresistible. Fully aware of the exceptional needs of a rambunctious Setter and their adorably proclivity to their reciprocal owner devotion, we brought Snacks Mc Reilly home. Our daughter has relied upon Chris Gentner, the exceptionally experienced dog trainer and owner of Nine Mile Pet Lodge, and continues to trust her precious pets, Blue the St Bernard and then Rosie the white golden, for loving care. Chris has personally worked with us to train Snacks over the course of multiple visits, including pool safety training. While Snacks can be a handful, people constantly comment on how calm he is, sitting nobly to receive greetings and pats from new human friends along with encounters with other tail wagging furry critters. Chris most assuredly ensured Snacks's good manners. Our pup knows Chris cares about him. He is a trusted friend and respected guide, appreciated by us, our family, and our neighbors. For training and lodging, we recommend and commend Chris and Nine Mile Pet Lodge to you and your very own precious tail wagging furry buddy.
