I never thought I would the person dropping a dog off at daycare but my mind was changed after a few training sessions. The staff are so caring and enthusiastic that I feel so comfortable dropping off my dog knowing he's in great care and going to have a LOT of fun! Check their Facebook feed for daily pictures and posts to see how your dog is doing during the day. Seeing our little guy pop up on their Facebook page is a great feeling while plugging away at work. Our pup comes home exhausted and happy. I really cannot thank the staff enough. They treat every dog as they would their own. We are so grateful for all the staff and the love they show Wally!

My husband and I needed help with our newly adopted 4 year old Rottweiler (Wayne) as he had no…read moreprior training, no boundaries set and no socialization with other people or pets which unfortunately resulted in aggression. Before adopting Wayne, we already had another dog and a cat so we knew we had a lot of work to do to get them acclimated and keep them all safe. After just the first session, we witnessed many positive improvements with Wayne's behavior which kept us wanting more. Now, after just 3 sessions with Dr. Karlene, Wayne has an A on his report card -at least in our book! In addition to learning commands, he sits and patiently waits for our other dog to eat first before he gets any food. He is much easier to take on walks (no more pulling and growling or barking) and we don't worry about him hurting our other animals. He's a very gentle giant with all of them. We recently added a kitten to our family and he's really sweet with her too, even when she bites his tail and plays with his whiskers. During this process, I learned that training a dog isn't as simple as dropping it off to a trainer to do the work; the family really needs to come together (humans and pets) to learn the techniques and do the work as a team. It doesn't take much time, just consistency and a good behavioralist!

Other daycares crate your dog during the day and only let them out periodically, WAGS doesn't do that. Our dog is able to run around and play with her friends all day. If you want your dog to be crated for a nap or you would like them to be fed lunch, they will accommodate that as well. They have both indoor and outdoor play-areas, with mini playgrounds for the dogs, and pools in the summer. They also have comfy couches for dogs to relax on when the need a little R&R. They post a lot of photos on Facebook, and do cute events during the year too (if you take your dog to WAGS you are guaranteed a ton of adorable pet photos). The staff is great as well, my partner and I definitely trust that they're taking the best care of our dog. I can't say enough good things about WAGS !

The following is a letter/feedback we sent to Wags Dog Club after our dog was injured within their…read morecare. In reply to our letter, Wags responded questioning if the injury even occurred on their property. To the staff and management of Wags Dog Club , In the last few months since Merlin's injury that occurred while under your supervision, we've stressed over and analyzed all avenues to which has led to us sending this letter to you and your team. As many of you are pet owners, we know that the last call you'd ever want to receive would be like the one you gave on January 5th. My husband and I would like to think that since Merlin started attending your daycare that we as pet owners were laid back and didn't ask too much from your staff. We didn't push back when we paid for his nails to be trimmed, only to see that they weren't. We can count more than a handful of times repeatedly asking if his nails had been trimmed and we were assured they were, even though you could see that not even the tips of the nails had been touched. We didn't push back the time Merlin came home with teeth marks on his abdomen. You said you didn't notice, so we took your word for it. We weren't upset when Merlin came down with a slight case of kennel cough. Even if that meant your team wasn't cleaning properly. That's why we keep our pets vaccinated, right? The pictures you took of him dressed up for special events/holiday, where you could tell the staff hastily threw the outfits on him and his face was always covered in gunk. We never complained and always paid for each picture. We also didn't complain the time your staff brought the wrong dog out to our car. Even after telling the staff that it was the wrong dog, and them insisting they gave us the correct dog, we still trusted you and your team. With all of that being said, when you called on us January 5th to tell us there was an incident and Merlin would need to be seen by a vet, we would have assumed you would have been honest with us. We would have assumed that you and your staff even if Merlin wasn't one of your favorite dogs would have followed up to see how he was doing. Instead, between your understating how severe his wound was (saying he had a gash did not begin to encompass the gravity of the situation), to telling us that you have no idea how he was hurt, and that he never cried out in pain, make your actions even more disconcerting. The fact that it's a lie you were comfortable telling us, shows that we 100% misplaced our trust in your staff. By you telling us that you have no idea how Merlin was injured tells us that you were not supervising the dogs. Which would make us wonder, how long did our pet run around with a hole in his shoulder? The thing is, there would have been blood, even if Merlin had managed to get caught on some sort of equipment, the hole on his back would have bled a lot. There is no way that someone was randomly petting him and just happened to notice he had a wound large enough to need stitches and a drainage tube. But we know as well as you, that the injury came from another dog. Besides his larger wound you could see where the other dog's teeth scraped his skin. Truthfully, had Wags been upfront about the incident, telling us that "Dog B" attacked Merlin, the only thing that would've changed is we would have asked moving forward to no longer place Merlin in that group and to keep him and the other dog apart. We get it, this is something that could have happened in our own backyard. What we don't get is why you weren't honest. Or that no one from your staff ever called to check on him. Which further showed us that our beloved pet was only a number to you and we cannot trust you. My husband and I are all for helping small/locally owned businesses (one of the reasons we loved sending Merlin to your daycare) and we understand that leaving bad reviews can be detrimental to small businesses, much like yours. But as the months have gone by and we've had a lot of time to reflect on the situation we decided to send you a letter to let you know just how much your lack of care affected us. Because of this, we will be sharing our story/feedback with others, for anyone that is interested to know what type of business ethics you uphold.

Proformance K9 did the impossible for us…read more Our 4-year old male, intact, German Shepherd had always been allowed to do as he pleased, with predictable results. Finally we decided that it was time for professional training, but thought it might be too late. Several trainers flat-out refused to even try to bring this willful GSD in line. We had tried electric collars (He refused to move after being shocked...for days) prong collars (he just went limp like a protester and could be yanked and dragged without effect) and food motivation (he let food sit for days). So went we went to interview with Proformance K9, we were not hopeful. Trainer Tim assured us all was not lost, and that he could produce results during a two-week training program. A month later, we dropped the dog off and prepared for the usual "come pick him up, we can't do anything" call, but instead videos of his progress came. Our dog was so willful and resistant that he couldn't be turned into a "Stepford Dog" after that many years, but Tim was able to get him under control and eliminate most of his defiant behaviors. Most importantly, he showed us how to continue the training and expand on the basics of the two-week course. People who saw our dog before can't believe the change and we're able to take the 105 lb. shepherd in public without the embarrassment of having no control or the worry that our dog will scare someone. I can't promise you that Proformance K9 can train your dog, but if they can get results with ours, normal dogs should be a snap.

I asked for some information on the collars because as a vet tech, this goes against all of my education on animal behavior. It was provided and when I asked to basically hold off on her training until I could make sure I was comfortable continuing to use said collar at home, I was told there was "no reason to follow up" and best of luck to us. Until this point, Kim had been pleasant and completely willing to offer any information. She also repeatedly mentioned "if you have any questions please ask". But this sounds like she has no desire to work with with people. She actually opened our last correspondence saying that she wasn't going to try to convince me and that she was "much too busy for that." But continued on to a fairly lengthy email. I'm actually glad I didn't send my dog to her. Yikes.
