My 6 month old dog is dead because I trusted Pawcienda. Please don't make the same mistake!…read more It has been too hard to type these words out, as I come to the reality of life without my best friend, Duke, our chocolate lab puppy who died due to an outbreak of Parainfluenza (aka Kennel Cough) at Pawcienda. Duke was at Pawcienda for training with Stephen, and also enrolled in the doggie day care. He was exposed to Parainfluenza from another dog at their doggie day care, but I was lead to believe it wasn't serious and that he should be fine in a few days. Before this he was a healthy dog and had all of his vaccinations. They weren't going to take him to the vet, but my wife made them! We now know that by law a kennel/boarding facility has to take a dog to the vet, so this was the first red flag! The vet realized it was bad and had turned into Pneumonia, so they rushed Duke to a critical care vet, VRCC. During this time I was on the phone with the owner, Jeff, and he told me that they had cases of Kennel Cough for 2 weeks! That means that this was going on before I even brought Duke to Pawcienda, and they placed their business above the welfare of my dog. If we had been made aware we could have prevented all of this! Duke died 2 days after we were made aware of him being exposed to Kennel Cough. This is very unusual, so an investigation by Animal Control was opened, and a Necropsy was performed. The findings of the Necropsy determined that Duke had Kennel cough for 4 - 6 days prior to death. This evidence proves that Duke was exposed much earlier than we were lead to believe. In addition during the investigation the animal control officer was informed that they had put up a sign alerting people to ongoing Kennel Cough on a Friday, and we were not notified until Monday. This along with the Necropsy results shows that he was there all weekend with Kennel Cough and either A) was not being monitored closely enough to recognize the signs, or B) they were negligent in not providing care to a sick dog early enough to prevent death. Since Duke's death we have found out that this is a serious outbreak of Kennel Cough, that has killed many dogs in NJ, and has now started to spread in Virginia. Please avoid having this happen to your dog, and avoid Pawcienda.

Bark Busters is a Sham! $550 and I got 2 training sessions, a leash, and a bean bag to throw at my…read moredog to correct their behavior! Awesome stuff. Received services back in June to assist in training my JRT. Training was 80% talk. Talking about what BB stands for...theory about being the alpha and making noises to correct a dog's behavior. The techniques are so antiquated. Other trainers I have worked with can't believe I went to Bark Busters for help. Working with other trainers has actually led to results. Results I was hoping to see from BB. What really gets me is that after the 2 sessions, I have never heard from Bark Busters. Not the company, nor the trainer. I guess they do not stand by their word or contract. Like Steve Miller sang, " Go on and take the money and run". I will never ever recommend Bark Busters. For those of you who have had success, cheers. Our experience..or lack of...was very underwhelming to say the least.

Our Siberian Husky Dylan ate window sills, shoes, toilet paper rolls, chair legs. Dylan hated other dogs and went on the attack as soon as he spotted one. The worst part was he hated babies and we were about to be come Grand Parents. Lee spent an afternoon teaching Dylan as well as my wife and I on how to continue training. Dylan did a 360 that day just when we were about to go crazy and find him another home. It's been two months now and Dylan is still an entirely different dog. He is a pleasure to have now. Lee accomplished this in one afternoon visit. I would highly recommend Lee with Bark Busters. He has a great personality and explains and demonstrates everything to easily understand and follow up for success. Thank you Lee....No more stress at Jim & Linda R's home in Manassas Va and Naples FL

After the first visit, Oliver was getting in and out of his kennel on his own, and i was sleeping peacefully through the night.His food aggression ended.

Second visit and third visit we learned basics at my request and learned basic manners (no leash pulling and jumping, no mouthing) and he is doing 80% better. She also taught me how to calm down his hyperactivity. Third visit we continued these things. I never felt rushed by Kelli, she took her time and often our appointments continued over the hour. I will def be using her in the future.
