To reduce stress and get back together sooner we try to kennel the dogs not far from where we are…read morestaying- so we tried Old Stone Pet Lodge after combing thru many options found on Yelp. Our 3 beagles came home happy. So something's being done right by the staff. Usually they are panting for the first hour after leaving a kennel. Not after their stay at the Old Stone Pet Lodge. They were calm and relaxed, happy to see us but not that desperate sound of being happy to get away. When we picked them up- we got to watch them play on the snow hill from the camera in the lobby area. They looked happy. The staff is SO friendly and the dogs didn't have that "kennel smell" that they typically have at other kennels. We will definitely be back if ever in the area again. Thank you for the great care of our canine "kids"!

They use positive reinforcement only, which is what I was looking for when I looked around. They have lots of locations around Madison and plenty of times. Jada has been our instructor, and we love her (as does our puppy!). Class sizes are small -- there were 6 or 7 in our last class and only 4 in our current class. They also have extra opportunities for socialization. We love them!

I appreciate that they took the time to address my concerns and talk openly with me about things, that is really what makes all the difference!! It has been amazing since!!

She was very reactive towards other dogs on a leash and behind fences. We explained in detail where we were seeing these behaviors and what we wanted the outcome to be. He helped with this and more. His one-on-one approach, how he forms a relationship with the pup, and how he teaches the pups parents are too notch. After showing us what he trained her to do, then trained us to do..... we quickly signed up her brother. Both graduated early ;) We highly recommend James and all his expertise.

She returned the dog with the same behavioral issues, Missy only provided a very superficial 15-minute follow-up (fast-paced) when she dropped my pup assuming that somehow I knew how to follow up with the so-called training. Promised training notes but never followed up on them. When I questioned the training she got upset and offended (I guess is easy to be offended when you pocket $960 and the dog shows no progress). I am an elderly woman with mobility problems and took the money from my retirement account to get help to train the pup. Her suggestion was to keep the dog on a leash inside and outside the house and put him in the kennel when he misbehaved because he needed to earn his freedom. And that cost me $960? This looks like a scam to me. In my case, Missy is a disappointment. I know she blames me for my pup's behavior but that is why I hired her, to help me to train me and my dog. And she has more than 40 years of experience? Unbelievable.
