Not only are they extremely reliable, they are also very knowledgeable - a family of dog lovers who have decades of experience in animal care and training. I also love the fact that every walk is documented and emailed to me immediately with a route map, notes and a photo. And the option to pay through their website is very convenient. I'm very happy with this company and highly recommend Connor and Lisa!

Sabrielle and her staff truly understand and care about dogs. I have a very special little dog who…read moreneeds a lot of training and attention to help overcome her behavioral challenges and they not only understood what to do immediately, we've been making steady progress since we first met everyone. The convenient Wheaton location of the facility is great for daycare and they also allow for half-day daycare too. Very flexible scheduling. When I pick my dog up, I can tell that she's received personalized attention from the staff and that she has been well cared for. Often she's been able to work one-on-one with a staff member for nearly all of her half-day session. We also attend the group classes which are incredibly unique and let my dog build up practice interacting with other dogs in a way that reinforce new, good behaviors. My neighbors are thrilled with the progress almost as much as I am - my dog no longer automatically barks at everyone outside now and is able to make new friends. The in home training we did originally was incredibly valuable to get us started on the right foot. We need to do that again very soon! Is it the least expensive daycare and/or training in the area? No. But it is ABSOLUTELY worth it. When I leave my dog in the care of The Canine's Voice I know that she's going to be safe, loved, and will learn a few things while she's there. The classes are incredibly valuable too. The results speak for themselves.

Absolute no from me. I was out earlier this evening with my boyfriend and 5 month old puppy. We had…read morebeen sitting and eating for about 15 minutes when trainer Bryan Mitchell came up on the side of us with an off leash dog that he was training and proceeded to play fetch with the dog, and have it stand on a fire hydrant for about 45 minutes. He did not once ask us if our dog was ok around other dogs or if we were comfortable with him doing this. My puppy became very upset and while loudly discussing this and my dissatisfaction that the trainer refused to acknowledge us (after clearly seeing and hearing our pup) we decided that we had to leave dinner early. Every other person who interacted with us and our dog was able to ask our and our dogs comfort level, but a PROFESIONAL couldn't? That is absolutely ridiculous. If you want a disrespectful trainer who refuses to acknowledge boundaries this is the place to go. And Brian... next time don't wear a company logo or just use your beautiful and ample indoor space to teach these tricks.
