Lyn Murray's RiverDog Ranch is the absolute BEST! Lyn takes exceptional care of our dogs and gives…read morethem lots of loving attention. At RiverDog Ranch, your dog gets to run and play with other friendly dogs and cool off when the weather's warm, splashing in the kiddie pool or running through the sprinkler. Lyn supervises the fun at all times and sends pics and updates during your dogs' stay. The minute we pull into her driveway, the dogs bark with excitement and cannot wait to get out of the care and greet Lyn. We have never felt guilty leaving our pups with her (which is no small feat) and have been going to Murray's RiverDog Ranch for nearly fourteen years. My in-laws were her first customer years ago and when my sister-in-law had her Corgie, she would take her weekly to Lyn's day camp to socialize and get the Corgie energy out. Lyn has become part of our family, and treats all of us (dogs especially) like we were her own.

Barbara clearly loves dogs and knows how to keep them playfully engaged and even manages a group nap time! We've also boarded our pup there and she had a blast. How do we know? They post videos of the group activities so you can see your pup playing. Her wanting to go back speaks volumes about the experience.

She has a swimming pool, nice backyard, and of course a/c inside the house. she consisted to upload the picture and video to facebook. I can see my dogs playing and swimming there safely. My dogs stayed there for 2 nights and when we picked up our dogs, she gave us a nice photo of each of my dogs. Lovely!

We've trained a number of dogs, but she just did not handle our style well, and seemed to crumble with any correction. We contacted Joanna and did a 3 week behavior mod board and train and it changed our lives. Now Lucy knows what we expect and we know how to keep her on track without eroding her trust...

Maybe the laziest ones ever, but I definitely would not recommend to anyone who actually wants someone to care about their dog and put forth a little effort. They Didn't even give my dog 15 mins to chill out after I left before calling me back to come get him because "he seemed nervous". The employees seemed incompetent and nervous from the start and my dog probably picked up on the energy. Never had any problems ever til this "trainer". Lol no worries! Luckily there is another option so I guess country aire pet resort will get my money now. Should have know better that to trust anyone from happy va. Response: good try. Bart is well socialized with many dogs, people, and goes everywhere he's allowed to come with me or my girlfriend. You and your business will be just fine don't worry sweetheart. Have a good day!

This is an updated review after I retracted the original review I previously wrote as I was giving…read moremy vet the benefit of the doubt. My dog was originally diagnosed with an eye condition that requires him to be on a life long med or he could possibly go blind. Upon my visit to my current vet she advised she would renew his prescription. When I ordered it the prescription was denied by chewy stating that the vet denied it. When I contacted my current vet about this she advised me she would not renew this med until he was seen bye an ophthalmologist in Medford. I then asked why I wasn't told this at the visit or made aware when she made this decision, or any time that I called after to find out why and all she could tell me is she had poor communication with me. So I made an appt for end of March since this ophthalmologist travels to Redding. I asked Westside if they would renew his med until he could be seen. She refused. He ran out of his ointment and after 2 days his eyes got significantly worse so I made an appt at Shingletown vet. At my appointment with Shingletown vet they confirmed he had the eye condition and in fact needed the medication right away. He was then given his medication right there in the office, and they advised that they would renew his medication and there was no need for me to meet with the ophthalmologist and spend another $300.

From our first training session I could see the love Marty has for his pups and the passion for…read morepositive training. I had no idea how to train a puppy, all I knew is I wanted a well trained dog. Marty has helped with every step from crate training, potty training, name recognition, recall, loose leash training, "mine & take it", socializing and many other commands. That's a lot when I think about it and there is no way I could have ever done this alone. Bailey is doing amazing and is a total joy. She is a well behaved dog. I enjoy each of our training sessions and look forward to the next! Thanks Marty, Bailey & I could not have done it without you. See you soon.

You should consider him first and the in home training, while more expensive than a class, will get you the results you are looking for. Truly. This is the real deal.
