She's so great at addressing each dog's needs both in daycare and boarding but even more so in training..We had a cranky senior Dachshund we never thought would be able to interact with other dogs or people, who eventually was able to go to daycare and even board during vacations. We currently have two Xolos, Mexican hairless dogs, who have both been with Michelle since they arrived. The older going through puppy classes and when she was older, she did a 2 week board and train with great results. Our younger pup, is on a year training plan, even getting the special experience of a training trip to California where he was exposed to so many new experiences helping him grow into a confident young man. Xolos are a special breed but not the easiest.With Michelle's guidance for both the pups and us, we're all working together to enjoy our life together to the fullest. Thank you Michelle, we couldn't do it without you!

After spiraling down the rabbit hole, researching the various plethora of nearby daycare options…read morewith the important sole purpose to take advantage of a perfectly optimal socialization opportunity, to enroll my newly rescued/adopted puppy. All the current active staff working at this specific location have demonstrated & proven how extremely capable & exhaustively knowledgeable as trainers, dog behavior specialists, groomers, etc. They have exceedingly created a trustworthy controlled environment setting that makes me reassuringly safe to entrust the safety & wellbeing of my 4-legged son. They have gone above & beyond for my puppy & I could not praise/thank them enough for their time, energy & effort to nurture my puppy's confidence & needs. Including assessing & addressing his trauma triggers being bullied as the "runt" of his litter, that occurred prior to his rescue. I am thoroughly enthralled with their most adorable & transparently informative daily report cards that are released after their daycare reservation. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to cultivate & nurture their doggo-puppers development & overall wellbeing (with a heaping side of well deserved spoiled treatment)! Will definitely be a continuing member, as long as they will have Beemo & I, after we officially move to the PNW.

WOW! What a difference three weeks with Taylor and board & train at A Dogs Best Friend can make…read more Holy smokes. We are so happy and very proud of our dog's progress and have so much to thank Taylor for. Folks send their dogs to board and train programs for many reasons. For us, we wanted support honing previously learned skills, learning recall, and curbing a few unwanted behaviors such as excitedly lunging and jumping at people, fence fighting, and barking. We were nervous about so many things. What would we do without our boy for three weeks? Would his sweet and playful personality be the same when he returned? Could we stick to it and reinforce his learning at the end of it all? The three weeks away were tough. But we timed it with a family vacation which helped a lot. As for the dog we picked up at the end; Ozzie is the exact same amazingly sweet and playful dog. But he is so much more confident, calm, and responsive. He honestly seems like a much happier dog. Almost like he feels and shares the pride we have in him. And with the tools and confidence it has given us, we can now give him the fulfilling life he deserves. THANK YOU, TAYLOR! We look forward to continuing this journey with you.

She also took time to explain how Mack's daily life should look at home to help set us up for success. Thank you Grace at the battground location. Mack really did not like men and even would try to nip them as they walked by. He was afraid of the world and even though we took him everywhere since he was a puppy he was so fearful of everything. Yesterday we took him to a tap house we frequent and in the past Mack would hide behind us and not let any strangers touch him. Yesterday he let everyone say hi and even approached men to get pets on his own. Today on our walk he walked with confidence and was not fearful and we both strolled with confidence and ease. Yesterday I already suggested Enzo's to two people who were very impressed with Mack as other dogs were barking and he just hung out unbothered. We cannot thank you enough and we look forward to Mack's increased confidence and his example out and about of what Enzo's can do!
