I have been a loyal client since when they small. And when the aunt was still alive. Since her passing apparently it's gone to crap. If you are worried about a 16yo dog maybe being too much you should reconsider being a groomer and at least make sure to put a muzzle on every dog. I am very disappointed in the grooming service here. My poor baby is traumatized from the experience. They did me so wrong it's not even funny. The groomer was obviously aggressive with dog and not patience at all is why she couldn't finish. I've heard horror stories about this place but always defended them. Nope not anymore, Very poor service!!! THE END....period

I felt so at ease knowing my two dog babies were well cared for during the 14 day Board & Train. I received a very detailed and thorough check-in call every 3 days while they were gone. They posted photos daily - so I never felt out of touch as to what was going on. At the end of our 14 days, we had a one on one training that has prepared me to continue growing my dog's new skills. I feel so confident moving forward taking both dogs out for long walks and to social gatherings. I look forward to many more group training sessions and hangs with the team. Definitely get your pups registered here!

Additionally, Biscuit was an aggressive barker at the door and when strangers walked past our house. Tara and her team turned Biscuit's behavior around in that 2 week period. They worked with the two dogs together. Biscuit follows the place command and no longer barks at the door. We are still working on the two dogs together. Tara and Lila have been to our house twice to help. It was a big investment. Now even my husband agrees it was worth it!

I purchased a GoldenDoodle from Crockett last year. She was born on February 28, 2025, and she has…read morebeen a constant disappointment from the first day she arrived. She was sick when she got here -- vomiting and diarrhea, sometimes with blood in her stool. We took her to our vet, only to find that she had an intestinal parasite. Total cost to cure: over $500. She has also been a constant behavioral problem -- destroying furniture. Worst of all, she is afraid of almost everything -- from the first day she arrived. The Crockett trainer said she was shy -- hardly. It's as if she were traumatized as a very young puppy. She is the product of a Lancaster, PA puppy mill. The Crockett people should be driven out of business. We spent thousands of dollars for a dog that is a constant problem.

We very highly recommend The Puppy Nanny's Place!

*TIED FOR #1 Dog Training in the Greenville area*…read more This is part of my review series on Therapy Dog Training. Our dog was recently certified and we want to help our neighbors through this long process! We were initially worried about going to Astro because we saw their police dog training program and thought that their training style would be too harsh. Boy were we surprised! Sandy and the training crew can get any dog to his/her potential and specialize in rehabilitating rescue dogs, so their approach balances positive and negative reinforcement to help dogs develop a gentle, responsive disposition. We completed intermediate and advanced classes at Astro, then did private lessons to complete our AKC Good Citizen and Advanced certification. Positives: Astro Kennels has the best suite of dog training classes in the Upstate. Their huge Astro dome and outdoor training ground are a beautiful venue. They have the best supply of collars and leashes, and a good boarding program. Negatives: They do not have a dedicated Therapy Dog class or Therapy Dog evaluators. They do offer private lessons that are excellent. *Routes to Therapy Dog Certification: 1. Attend private lessons for beginner through Therapy Dog and then get certified through Alliance of Therapy Dogs (ATD) via Noble Dog Hotel. This is the more expensive option. 2. Attend classes at Astro Kennels, then take Therapy Dog class at Petsmart in Mount Pleasant, SC, and then contact a private ATD evaluator through the ATD website. This is the cheaper option.

Larry helped our household greatly. We have two dogs, but our bulldog has been our behavioral…read morepriority as he is about 100lbs but thinks he's 10. He was dangerous due to his severe anxiety and size, and we were terrified that we were going to need to find a new home for him. We have a baby and had to create separation of the living spaces due to the safety risks, but Larry helped us bring more unity back into the home, SAFELY. He provided us with the tools we needed to gain control again of our situation, where we can all share a happy living space now. We have been able to curb a lot of our dog's anxiety by being confident in our commands, so our anxiety has lifted too. Larry also helped us with something we never thought possible: our other dog is now safely able to go on walks without trying to kill other furry babies. :) It is nice knowing if we ever have any questions or have any setbacks, Larry is there to help us work through it. Thanks, Larry!

Update. I understand Larry wants his customers to be successful. He's just not honest about his…read moreability to deal with larger dogs. Larger dogs need a lot more, very specific training. They do not need a trainer who basically seems uninterested and won't even touch them. He's going to come with a nice checksheet, let you do the work, and it's pretty much what every single trainer on youtube will teach you. Again as nice as he is, even in his response here, know I think most people don't give him a bad review because he's a nice old guy. If you have a larger dog, a breed that is known to be head strong, or both, do not waste your money. There's only one larger breed dog trainer in the area and they are not as convenient and far more expensive. There's also a trainer that specializes in large breed dogs that trains with online sessions that work better. Two of his sessions will cost you about the same as what Larry charges but you'll get training that actually works. Sorry Larry, but feel you really need to be honest that you're not experienced or successful with larger breeds. My best friend's husband's friend had the same issue, and she asked him to review also as he expressed the same frustration. But I can't speak to his story other than as point to you to either learn more about working with larger dogs or be honest with future customers up front that you don't want, like, etc to work with them.

I can only speak to the daycare aspect of Camp Bow Wow since I haven't yet tried any of their other…read moreservices, but my dog loves coming to day camp. As soon as we pull in the parking lot, he gets way excited to go play. He usually suffers a bit of separation anxiety but he has no problem at all leaving me in the lobby when he goes back to the play area! The counsellors all seem to love him and when I'm picking up or dropping off, they seem to know a lot of the dogs' names. Having the 'Camper Cams' is a plus, too, since I like to be able to check in on my boy throughout the day. He's always following someone (human or canine) around, his tail going a mile a minute. And the best part? He's pooped at the end of the day. So he gets a good time and I get a break from an 8 or 9 month old puppy with incredibly high energy levels. We have some trips coming up and I may try their boarding services soon. If I do, I'll be sure to update my review. Love Camp Bow Wow!

*Not Recommended for Dog Training in the Greenville area / try others first*…read more This is part of my review series on Therapy Dog Training. Our dog was recently certified and we want to help our neighbors through this long process! We previously appreciated our dog boarding at Upstate Dog Academy but we stopped going for several reasons. Positives: James at Upstate Dog Academy offers dog boarding in his home and has a yard for daily outings. Negatives: We started with lessons at Upstate Dog Academy but we later found that other area dog trainers offer classes with a mix of more positive reinforcement and our dog started making more progress once we switched. Also, our dog just didn't seem to be getting the same amount of outdoor time here as at other kennels. On our last visit for boarding, our dog looked visibly distressed as we pulled in the driveway and we decided we would not be going back. *Routes to Therapy Dog Certification: 1.
