We had an amazing experience working with Justin. I worked with a different dog trainer in the…read morepast, and let's just say I wish I found Justin earlier! He is incredibly smart, compassionate, and truly understands that every dog is unique. He tailored the training specifically to our dog's needs, using a very gentle yet highly effective approach. You can tell he genuinely cares about the dogs he works with -- it's not a one-size-fits-all method, and that made all the difference. Our dog responded so well to Justin and his training methods. On top of his excellent training skills, he's also a fantastic dog photographer! He captured some beautiful moments that we will cherish forever. (I included some pics he took in this review!) I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful, skilled trainer. We would definitely work with him again if ever needed. 10/10 recommend using him.

My sister and I got puppies about a month apart. One is a large breed and the other a toy breed…read more We live together and were really struggling to integrate the two pups and it was making life VERY difficult. We were afraid to let them be in the same room together due to the size difference - when they were in the same room, it was basically gladiator warfare! We chose to board and train them together with Justin for two weeks while we went on an overseas trip. We were absolutely shocked at the progress Justin made with them in a few short days. The pups are totally integrated and we are all finally able to relax in the same room together. Until Justin came along, we were sure this was going to be a forever issue. Aside from the integration, Justin really listened to what our concerns were for training and was able to address each and get us moving in the right direction. He approaches training with love and always with the intention of strengthening your bond with your dog and teaching how to behave so that your dog can live it's best life and have as many adventures with you as possible. It's evident that Justin loves his work and loves and really gets to know each dog. We got great updates every day on how things were going and what he was working on with them. He's also an amazing photographer and we have so many gorgeous puppy portraits that he took. Best decision we ever made to use Justin and Modern Dog to help us with our boys. We just got them back yesterday and they are already more calm, having loads more fun and happy boys!

Our dog, Sally, was under the care of Camp Bow Wow - Grapevine from 12/6-12/13 while our family was…read moreout of town. When we picked her up, she was extremely lethargic and clearly not acting like herself. Within hours, we rushed her to urgent care and were told she had internal bleeding. She was immediately transferred to an emergency animal hospital, where she underwent an emergency splenectomy because cancer was suspected. Thankfully, pathology showed no cancer. We were then told by veterinary professionals that one possible cause of this type of injury is blunt force trauma. I went to this location in person and spoke with the manager to explain what happened and to seek answers--not to accuse anyone, but to understand how our dog could suffer a life-threatening internal injury while in their care. Instead of concern or empathy, I later received a phone call questioning the credibility of what I had said and asking for the name of the hospital and number in order to verify herself. There were no apologies, no expression of concern for Sally's condition, and no willingness to meaningfully engage with us. The focus was entirely on defending themselves and emphasizing how "big of an accusation" this was--despite the fact that we were simply looking for answers, not placing blame. Our dog almost died while under their care, and the lack of compassion, accountability, and basic concern afterward was deeply disturbing. Based on our experience, I would strongly caution anyone considering leaving their pet here. Stay far away.

I consider myself to be a decent dog trainer after raising a couple of other pups during my days,…read moreespecially my blue weim Sadie who took to my training very well and turned out to be one amazing, super obedient companion. I now have a 4 month old Vizsla (Rouge) who is as independent as can be. I was confident in myself and hopeful our training togher would go just as well as Sadie. Well, I think I met my match with Rouge. I had attempted all I could with her and decided to get some help. That's when I reached out to Karma. They put me in touch with Miranda for a consultation. We had a great conversation during which I shared with her the challenges i was facing with our training and the outcomes I for which I was hoping. Miranda shared her perspectives of my situation and how she would approach training with Rouge - her methods, marker words, and more. After just one conversation with Miranda, I was comfortable and confident that she would be a great trainer and handler of my sweet pup. It seemed that the best plan for Rouge would be a board and train program so I had Rouge stay with Miranda for a 12-day board and train session. Those twelve days go by (boy was I missing my little pup) and Rouge came back to me, just as excited as ever but something was different. After her typical puppy excitement of seeing me subsided, she was so attentive, calm and engaged with me. Miranda then spent the next hour walking me through what she and Rouge had worked on and the characteristics she had learned about Rouge while they were together. The best part, though, was that Miranda taught not only my pup, but also taught me how to adjust my approach and behavior around Rouge. She shared invaluable advice and pointers that were vital for me to continue training and building my relationship with Rouge. I can't say enough praises about Miranda from Karma and would not hesitate to have her spend more time with Rouge. To be honest, I'm already planning and looking forward to another board and train session with Miranda.

This is an updated review, as Pawhootz was operating as "Animal America" on my previous review, and…read more(I think) was under different ownership or management. I have a different dog now - a Maltese puppy named Maxwell - who is just over a year old. I started bringing him for Day Camp in the first quarter of 2024. He was very timid and unsure of what to do, but the excellent "camp counselors" at Pawhootz were so patient in doing their evaluations and making sure he felt safe and secure. Now, he acts like he owns the place! When I ask him if he wants to "go play," he goes berserk! And as soon as we pull into the driveway, chaos (the good kind) ensues. He has a little BFF that attends regularly, as well. When I pick him up at the end of the day, he is happily exhaunted. I confess that I balked a bit at the price and having to pay all at once at the beginning of each month; however, Maxwell attends day camp three times per week - when I can't work from home and must be in Dallas all day, I have real peace of mind knowing that he is well taken care of. Also, I love peeking in on the Webcam to see him playing with his buddies - it's the best part of my day! The management at Pawhootz is excellent - they are very responsive to questions and concerns, and they actually listen! You can tell that they have a heart for animals, and they treat them as if they were their own. We have been learning about boarding during the holidays. I was confident that he was safe and well cared for during the holidays. And they are working with me to find ways to alleviate his anxiety - puppies get anxious sometimes when we're away for longer than they are used to! We have not had a full groom here yet, but Maxwell got a luxurious bath and blueberry facial recently! They did a lovely job of brushing and cleaning him up - he was a happy peppy puppy when they brought him out to me. In summary, I highly recommend Pawhootz as a reliable, safe, secure, and trustworthy place to board fur babies. Between the creative enrichment activities and the amazing employees, they are a fun place for a few hours or a few days.

I'm writing this on behalf of my mother. She took her Maltese in for a groom and left extremely…read moredisappointed. The haircut was terribly uneven, choppy, and clearly rushed. It honestly looks like whoever groomed him either doesn't know how to cut dog hair or simply didn't care. Some areas look hacked with random layers, while other spots weren't cut at all. It looks less like a professional groom and more like it was done with dull paper scissors. To make matters worse, she dropped her dog off at 7:00am and didn't hear anything until 3:00pm and that was only because she had to call and check if he was ready. I understand they may have been busy or backed up due to reschedules from the ice storm, but that's not an excuse to deliver such poor-quality work. People are paying with their hard-earned money and deserve proper care and a basic level of professionalism especially when it comes to their fur baby. This experience was frustrating and unacceptable, and won't be returning.
