I had Kris come to my home in Buda for a 2-hour private lesson yesterday. I wanted him to see my dogs in their home environment to let me know if they will ever be off leash reliable or if I've spoiled them with bad habits for too long. Kris was fantastic. He explained dog language to me. I have one dog who likes to take control and train the humans around him. Kris showed me how to flip that in about 20 minutes. In just a 24 hour period of working on what Kris showed us, my Bailey is already about 90% with our first command. I'm very excited to continue to work with Kris and help my dogs be the best version of themselves. Denese W

I was so excited to welcome this precious baby into our home but the very first morning my boxer bit the puppy while I was holding her. I was devastated and heartbroken! My vet suggested I call Pat. She came right over and within a few minutes had calmly and quietly established order! She worked in a straightforward way with my boxer, always using positive reinforcement! I simply cannot say enough about what she has accomplished for me and my babies! She is truly gifted!

Hiring Amanda was one of the best decisions we made. The investment is worth it because her support doesn't end after one session--she's committed to helping you as your dog grows and life changes. Four years later, after moving from an apartment to a house, new behaviors popped up. Amanda came back, gave us the tools we needed, and we're already seeing improvement again. If your dog is struggling with behavioral issues, don't wait. Amanda is knowledgeable, passionate, and truly cares about helping people build better lives with their dogs. She doesn't just train dogs--she teaches owners how to succeed for the long haul.

She's very loving with me and my daughter, but less so with other people. Morgan's first boarding stay she willingly went in, but during her visit nipped someone. The staff continued to work with her, to socialize with her, now they are able to bathe her and clip her nails. Yesterday, we had a birthday party at the house... Approx 15 adults and maybe 10 kids or so. Morgan did amazing! I was worried and kept her on a leash/harness for a bit, but she did just fine without it. I let her meet people as they game in, she followed Quinn's lead and mostly sat near me in-between people; but she let people come in and out without growling or barking, and accepted treats with paw shakes. I have always been worried about having ppl over -- The first couple times it went poorly enough that I have since avoided it -- so this was nothing short of amazing. I am thankful Audra's team did not give up on us and have helped us get to this point.

If you plan on applying, I guarantee they will hire you because they desperately need the staff. I recommend you save yourself the time, and effort though. Because no one stays longer than 6 months. I got hired on the spot, and I worked here for 4 months (wayyyyy too long btw). It was a filler job until I could set myself up with a job opportunity that was long term. The only reason I stayed that long was to pay my bills, and I was in the middle of a move so a lot was going on. By the time I quit there was a completely new staff, I wish I was joking. The management at this company is horrific. Anything you ask of them will NOT be listened to. Can't work certain days or times? Doesn't matter. Wanna take time off? You're gonna be heavily questioned, AND judged. Being bullied by a coworker? We're going to continue scheduling you with them. You haven't been trained in a building? We're gonna schedule you in that building almost your entire time here. EVEN THOUGH you've also voiced you would not like to work in that building 5 separate times. The "assistant manager" Andrea Sosa was bullying me one day, and when defending myself by asking her to stop she threw the biggest temper tantrum I've ever seen from an adult. I got written up, and she received no retribution. Probably because she's the only employee who has stayed long term, and they can't afford to lose her. But she talks and sings to herself daily.. so she may be disoriented from being here for the past 20 years. If you would like to keep your sanity get out while you can or you may end up like her. Throwing temper tantrums like a 5 year old at 60. I cannot express enough how much I dreaded going to Pawsitive Thoughts. Nothing was positive about it, except for getting to work with dogs everyday. Every shift was hell. The main reason being this woman. The head manager, Andrea Lang, is so EXTREMELY passive aggressive, and unbelievably uncomfortable to be around. I was miserable working here, and I realized it was because she is too. The ongoing pattern of snide remarks, constant judgment, and impertinence is so beyond unbelievable. The audacity that this woman has is astounding. My final straw to get out of this mess was the day she violated HIPAA. I've never been so offended and made so uncomfortable at a job. One night I had to take my fiancé to the emergency room, I called off of work ahead of time for the next day to stay with him in the hospital. When coming back Andrea Lang asked me personal intrusive questions about my fiancé's health while I was on the clock working. I was shocked. This woman's never asked me anything personal until this day, and it was blatantly obvious I was not in the mood to talk about it. And then had to tell her she was making me uncomfortable with the questions. It's just insane to me that I, as a 19 year old have more social awareness than a 40-50 year old woman who's somehow a "manager". Yet she barely manages. The lack of professionalism this woman has is beyond me. And of course all of this over cleaning up poop, pee, and vomit for 16 dollars an hour, 30 hour weeks, and no benefits at all. In conclusion, this job was a nightmare, and you can most definitely find something better. Literally anything. I do NOT recommend!

Fortunatley he healed well after two weeks of dedicated TLC but the trauma of the experience remained with both him and me well after Ryder physically healed. I reached out to Matt for virtual dog training appointments to help us through that, and his guidance and great wisdom around dog psychology and behavior and deep empathy for Ryder and in general made such a huge impact. I learned from Matt how to help Ryder through his fear and trauma and how to recognize when he was experiencing trauma (for example, he developed a new and strong fear of rumbling engines). By applying Matt's empathetic practices, Ryder has become much less fearful, is no longer afraid of rumbling engines or playing with other dogs and he's back to his old happy, playful, super enthusiastic and friendly self!! :) Matt also greatly helped my dog Ellie through the excessive anxiety that resulted from my marital separation and helped us learn what an impact the breaking of that social bond had on her and how to address it! We now give her the extra attention she needs when doing hand offs to switch between homes. Thank you so much, Matt working with you has made a WORLD of difference in Ryder and Ellie's quality of life!! :)
