My dogs are accustomed to being around, just our family and don't always be friend new people readily. They immediately took to the owner, Brian. Our dogs are on a diet where they have a mixture of dry and wet food that require refrigeration or freezing. That was no problem at all for the owner to accommodate. The fellas looked well cared for when my son picked them up! My son forgot to check for the dogs blankets when he picked them up and Brian kindly drove them down to the city where we live so that the dogs would have them. I will definitely use Hicks Farm again and I highly recommend them!

Zelda, our German shepherd/husky mix, boarded with Brian for nearly two weeks while we were on…read morevacation. Before she went, I'd worked with her on sit, down, take it, leave it, and some spins with decent success. Brian took what she had and built on it, adding heel, come when called, turn, and stay. He returned a noticeably different dog. When we hit some bumps shortly after, he came back out and spent a solid hour with me going over what was actually happening...not just commands and corrections, but why she was behaving the way she was and what she needed from me to feel secure. (Spoiler: she needed me to be more confident and consistent.) He has a way of cutting straight to what matters without overcomplicating it, and more than once he said exactly the right thing at exactly the right moment. What struck me most across both experiences was how much genuine wisdom he brings to his work. He's clearly someone who has learned his craft through deep experience and observation, and it shows in every interaction with the dog and with the owner. On top of all of that, his pricing was incredibly reasonable; boarding and training combined for what many trainers charge for training alone. We felt genuinely taken care of. Kind, patient, perceptive, and exactly what we needed. Highly recommend.

We love Lone Star Dog Training. Travis is a fantastic trainer. Our pitbull Rosie arrived in…read moreour garage in July hot, emaciated, and starving. We initially thought we'd foster her for adoption due to her dog aggression issues. After working with Travis, we decided togive Rosie a forever home ourselves. We brought Travis in to privately train her so she didn't have to deal with the stress of a group setting and because we wanted a tailored training program. With Lone Star Dog Training, we received an excellent job. Travis educated us about how training is important and what results he felt we could see. Over the course of 4 months, Rosie went from being aggressive toward our other dogs to feeling safe and comfortable with them. She's even adopted our 12 year old border terrier as her sister. Rosie has progressed from a frightened stray who did not wag her tail or understand how to take affection, to bounding and leaping with joy when she sees her people. She now seeks out our affections and looks forward to spending time with us. If not for Lone Star Dog Training, we would not have decided to keep her. It showed us what a wonderful, fun and loving dog Rosie is. Thank you, Travis , for your dedication and patience with us.

I cannot recommend this facility. The grounds are lovely, and the dogs are beautiful, but my…read morehusband and I were lied to about the German Shepherd dog we purchased. Shortly after we brought our boy home, I took him to our vet for a thorough physical. The vet said, "Did Heidelberg inform you that this dog has cryptorchidism? Did they tell you that one testicle has not descended?" (This was a three-year-old dog, not a puppy.) No, they didn't tell us. We were already attached to our boy, so despite this potentially dangerous (to the dog) condition, we kept him. Also, when we boarded our dog at Heidelberg, we requested that he be given his twice-daily medicine for IBS. He was not given his med and had severe diarrhea for a week after we brought him home. In addition, when we were in the office paying for the week of boarding, we saw a young male worker in a pen strike a young female pup hard on the muzzle for no reason. The manager saw what happened but ignored the abuse until my husband told him, "That guy just hit that dog!," whereupon the manager jumped up and pretended to scold the worker. I strongly suggest that anyone who considers buying or boarding a dog here Google "Heidelberg German Shepherds." What you'll find is sobering, in regard to breeding, health problems, ill-tended dogs, and outright injured dogs who had the misfortune to be boarded here. I notice also that many of the superlative reviews use the same language tone, diction, vocabulary, and even initial caps as each other. Judge for yourselves.

Our dogs were always healthy and well mannered with great temperaments. We took them to Saudi Arabia, Mexico and Venezuela and everywhere people were in awe of their presence. Our Maximillian's Lucky Summer won first place in a local dog show in Villahermosa Mexico. We were in town and at the mall, some promoters were there and saw him.. They wanted him in the show for promotional purposes only but MAX stole the show. If I was not in my late 70's I who do it again.

The original experience we had with the company was positive but our dog was already trained with…read morethe basic commands. We just wanted to make him a service dog. The next time we called we had gotten a puppy who was not at all trained. I had health issues so i had someone who assisted me in the training process. Considering I was in a wheelchair and on crutches, it was very difficult to drive back and forth to group lessons with my dog. Additionally, it was physically difficult to balance and hold my dog. This is why I purchased these lessons. The reason people get a service dog is to provide service in the event that a person has health issues. The owner of the franchise took issue with me not being able to attend group classes. When we began the program I had told him I would not be attending these classes. After 8 weeks of training i requested continuation of training and he said if I do my attend group classes, he would not train any longer. If this was the case I would have begun with someone else. Additionally, I had sent my dog to a 2 week overnight training program while we had gone out of town and she came back much more well behaved than the lessons we had experienced the entire time during training. Note, that nobody needs a service dog with no medical issues so the fact that he denied us service because I had health issues preventing me from physically going somewhere to physically train my dog seems counterintuitive. These facts should have been discussed prior to beginning. I then asked for him to recommend other companies if he would not help me, but I did not get referrals. These were my experiences with the company. Hopefully yours will be better!!!
