I have been in multiple times with my Shih Tzu and only twice with my Chow. Though I can't complain…read moreabout issues in the past, my most recent visit has me thinking twice, and currently looking for another groomer. Long story short the issue was with my Chow, I paid for the Bath with furminator PLUS, ran me about $100. Prior to booking the appointment I read online the description of services so I knew which service would be best for my Chow. I drop them off and 4 hours later I received a call that they were ready. (No issue with the wait, Chows take a VERY long time to dry so I expected that). My issue was when I showed up to pick him up the lady who greeted me instantly told me "Next time you book you should really book with a groomer and get his sanitary areas trims". Now my issue was his was listed as INCLUDED with the bath prior to booking the appt (I knew this needed to be trimmed). I told her that I was fairly certain it was included and she told me "nope! Next time book with a groomer". (Lets be clear, I didn't request ANYONE, I booked services so if I needed a groomer to do what should have been included then THEY should have booked it with a groomer?). I walked away to go pay and looked up the services while paying....I was correct. Sanitary trim, feet /pads trim and ears were all included in the $100 service I was paying for. After paying I walked back over to the grooming area where I could now see my dog. NOTHING trimmed. His feet were a mess, she already told me they didn't do the sanitary areas and I assumed the ears hadn't been touched at this point. I showed her the service listing where it clearly stated everything that should have been included. This is where the real issue began. She completely dismisses me and tells me "Okay, great, next time book with a groomer." I told her it was a lot of money for me to already have spent and asked "how would I know who I have to book with, I booked a service, a service that includes XY&Z". She just tells me again, "yup, well next time you should call and try and book with a groomer." At this point I'm ready to ask for a manager, I paid for a service...it needs to be done. Luckily a groomer overheard and stepped in and said she would take care of it. She explained that often dogs who need just baths don't need trims as well. And though I totally understand that concept...it IS included in the service and if the dog does require it, don't tell me to come back and pay again. I appreciated the groomer who stepped in, that's why there is an additional star. And again, in the past I have had no issues with my Shih Tzu. However the ten min back and forth with the rude girl dismissing me even AFTER I showed her what I paid for. She is the sole issue why I don't feel comfortable returning there.

They can now relax together off-leash in the same space, and we finally feel like a whole family again. One of the biggest breakthroughs came when my dad visited. The first time they met, Caddo tried to bite him. After working with Nate, Caddo not only behaved during the next visit--he actually approached my dad for pets and affection. It was a night-and-day difference, and such a huge relief. We've only been training with Nate for a few weeks, but the results have been life-changing. I can now bring Caddo out in public--to parks, stores, and more--all because Nate pushed us outside of our comfort zone and supported us every step of the way. He helped us save a dog that everyone else gave up on, and we are forever grateful.

Ria taught us tools that were invaluable - how to understand our dog's body language, how to snap her out of her reactivity, how to socialize her properly with other dogs and more! Ria also provided us endless tools such as various collars and leashes so that we were able to try different ones in our different sessions to find the one that helped us the most. Prior to training our dog, had a lot of anxiety around other dogs and was quite reactive. Now that we have understood her body cues, how to handle her with the proper tools like our leash and collar, our dog is living a totally different life. We can take her off leash and know she will obey to her commands/ listen. This has opened our dogs, horizons, and our horizons to new adventures like hikes, new dog friends, and more. Scheduling with Ria could not be easier. She was extremely flexible and communicative. We knew if we reached out with any questions during our training process she would respond right away with a text or a call. She consistently gave us feedback on how we were doing our homework as well and gave us tips and tricks along the way she really adjusts her training style per dog and her expertise truly shines. We could not thank Ria enough for all of her training and would recommend her to anyone !

But none of this would be possible without the exceptional guidance and personalized help we've had over the past several years from the team at Good Dog. Do yourself a favor, and sign up for class today. You won't regret it! Here's the reality... I had no idea how to train a dog. I thought it was something you do for a couple of months, and maybe you get a dog that listens to you. But Anne's approach of really helping dog owners understand dog psychology and effective techniques for breaking skill-building into bite-sized chunks helped me reshape my thinking and develop the patience and consistency needed to get an incredible result. I never dreamed that I could have a dog that listens as well as Sierra. How well does Sierra listen? Well, her recall is so good that she came running up 2 flights of stairs when I previewed the video I chose to include in this review. Just from the whistle in the video. I thought that kind of behavior was outside of my abilities to achieve. But Good Dog helped me realize that training a dog doesn't have to be a burden -- it's a lot easier than you think. It just requires consistency and a bit of oversight from a knowledgeable expert. Point is... You could have this for your dog, too!

I am writing this review to give Doreen Biasi's AKC Dachshund NY my highest recommendation. The…read morebreeding practices here are excellent. The dogs are raised and live in the family home. The parents and pups are very well cared for and socialized. Her breeding adults come from all over the world to establish the best lines. Indeed, many of these dogs are among the best examples of the breed and are champions. The parents are genetically tested and the pairings are designed to rule out problem conditions. If you read about dachshund coat color genetics it is actually quite complicated, and indeed there are crosses that could result in health problems. Doreen explains on her website why some pairings are unethical for this reason. Aside from those technical considerations, the dachshunds here are just gorgeous. I mean, look at them! Just beautiful dogs! Just about every coat color you could imagine is represented in her crosses. Most importantly, Doreen is selective about which adults are bred in order to establish lines with the best temperaments. Some of her adult dachshunds compete in dog shows, where they place very well, often with the highest honors. I first contacted Doreen by phone to inquire about specific dachshunds that were available and to ask general questions. She answered all my questions very honestly and to the point, and helped enormously in narrowing down which dog was the best fit. We communicated several more times over the phone and by text and she was always responsive, helpful, and patient. The business is truly a family operation: her daughter Ashley helped me troubleshoot when I encountered a problem with making the deposit online. Ryan drove hours to deliver our dog, and was polite, good humored, and professional. I'll comment that the cost of the pups at AKC Dachshund NY may be higher than at other places, but when you consider the hundreds of hours of love, care and training that go into your future family member I think it is well worth it. In the end we chose Celeste, an 18 month old longhaired black, white and tan dapple. I couldn't imagine a sweeter or gentler dog. She is the perfect combination of playful, calm, and affectionate. She is also pretty quiet - she doesn't bark except maybe once or twice when the mail is being delivered. Her socialization prior to coming to our family was excellent. She is friendly with all people and other dogs, and especially sweet with kids. Everyone who meets her falls in love with her: the vet, doggy day care, visitors, etc. If you look at the videos on the webpage or facebook you'll see Doreen's youngest son playing with the puppies, and I credit him for Celeste being so good with children. She is also doing very well with training. She has brought so much joy and love to our family! When we are ready to get Celeste a friend, I would choose AKC Dachshund NY again in a heartbeat.
