We've had to get our dog the temperament test each time before a daycare/boarding. When I called to makey appointment for this again they referred to my review and said they wanted to know if I would be open to this feedback. I didn't know what they meant at the moment I'm and after some back and forth figured out that because of my comment they don't think I'm open to their feedback. Never said I wasn't open to feedback. What I said was that I didn't feel like a valued customer because my dog doesn't go frequently. And this last conversation confirmed it even more.

Before choosing a dog trainer, we looked at countless options online. Ruff House was the only one…read morethat got back to us and was accepting new clients, or in some cases, got back to us at all. We weren't sure what to expect, as we are new to dog training. We scheduled an initial appointment for private in-home training that was $150 and was listed to be up to an hour and a half. Following the payment, we received an email with the trainer's availability and requested a time within it. We then had to go back and forth to find a time that worked for the trainer. It would have been much more helpful to just receive a list of dates/times that were still available instead of just a general schedule for booking. Again, we weren't sure what to expect but got up bright and early for an 8:00am session in our home the morning after Thanksgiving. The trainer was 8 minutes late. I know that isn't a huge amount of time, but it was our first meeting and we were ready on time and waiting. We received some helpful tips on how to start working on the main concerns we had with our dog, but felt like we didn't receive clear instruction on what to do if the dog didn't do the command, etc. We contemplated booking more sessions, but ultimately decided against it for the amount of money we paid vs the information we received. Maybe dog training just isn't for us. Maybe we just didn't mesh with the trainer. This was our experience.

I was very nervous bringing a new dog into my very comfortable pack with 2 small, 9 yr old dachshund mixes. My dogs had always been chill with other dogs but since Roama was a wildcard, I enlisted help from Terra to make sure I was prepared. Terra came to my house before the adoption, gave me ideas how to set up the space, tips for feeding in case there was resource aggression, and general training planning after meeting my 2 littles and getting their vibe. When Roama arrived, she made another visit to the house to see them (and me) interact. Let's face it, the human is usually the problem and I'm not exception. She helped with great tips, especially the magical squirt bottle (the horror!!) Roama has a lot of puppy energy that her elder siblings aren't able to match, and Terra invited her to the socializing play group! This has been a game changer. Roama can spend the day with pups that match her size and energy, then come home tired for cuddles with the sibs! It's been so great for her! Terra even let me join to watch her play and see how she shows her emotions (all in that toothy mouth of hers.). Hoping she'll be ready to try a dog park soon! Can not recommend her enough if you're anxious about adopting a new friend (DO IT) or if your current pup just needs a nudge in the right direction! Rise Above is amazing!! Enjoy the happy dog photos!!

Terra 's professional, caring , focused training taught me the exact skills I needed, to help my pup get over her reactivity issues. We are now able to have relaxing , fun walks , through our neighborhood, every morning. I know what to do to help my pup, should she become distracted, so we can continue at a leisurely manner during our walks. Terra came to my home, in a space where I and my pup were relaxed. She even brought her sidekick "Bucket", to help us with our reactivity issues. We were given homework to do after every lesson, and did it faithfully, 2 times a day. My pup now looks forward to going on walks and reinforcing what we have learned. Terra was always available for any questions I had and returned my text messages promptly. I am truly grateful to have found Terra and Rise Above Dog Training. I know , soon, there will be a day, when reactivity is a thing of the past, but, I will continue to train my pup, as she is a member of my family, and deserves to have the best of care. With all of this said, I highly recommend Terra for your dog training /owner of dog training needs. My pup and I thank you Terra.

They are big rambunctious loving pups! Tamison spent several weeks getting basic commands down and a training program the my sons gf could continue at home and it has been terrific they are so much easier to handle and control and they are much happier pups know that they are busy learning every day!

Mel, John, and the staff at WWW are incredible. They are knowledgeable, responsible, and reliable…read more They provide everything I look for and expect in a doggy daycare. Several things set them apart from other daycares I have experienced (in Tucson and elsewhere). The dogs do daily activities (ex: wed is game day, and thurs is paw print paint day) and they have access to outdoors as well as indoors. They get frequent potty breaks so they aren't forced to eliminate indoors, which is surprisingly the case at a lot of daycares! They also provide a shuttle to and from camp which I utilize every week due to my work schedule. My pup gets picked up from and dropped off at my residence which is soooo helpful. We have also boarded with them which leaves my pup stimulated and tired when she gets home. My dog is not one that can just sit in a kennel for a weekend. The daily updates and pictures are also great for peace of mind. Lastly and very importantly, I have seen my Rhodesian ridgeback pup blossom into a social and happy pup. Roux, who is friendly, but slightly wary of new surroundings, people, and dogs, was previously at a daycare who threw her in with 20 wild and new dogs. She, of course, barked and growled and was asked not to return. At WWW they are deliberate about their playgroups and introductions. Roux has never had problems here and enjoys her time at daycare. At the dog park, she approaches strangers for pets and initiates play with new dogs. Both things she had never really done before her time at WWW. I can't recommend Wheels, Walks, and Wags enough for boarding and daycare!

Did anyone say: agility day, training day, smell day, art day (yes, art), and then free play day? Drop off is easy and convenient, so is pick up. You get a daily report card with many photos. These are true dog afficianados and in tune with your dog's behavior. they take special care in matching dogs to the rooms and events. Constant supervision and outside potty space. My 9 month German shepherd has really become socialized to other dogs. DDC (doggy day care) is much cheaper than getting a new dog, and the other dogs will help socialize your dog. WWW sets the gold standard for dog care. They specifically set up a trial session to ensure new dogs match well with the packs. They are excellent at integrating the challenging dogs as well. Did anyone say patience? Yep, they have that too. They are all about the positive training approach and they read dog body language very well. So happy to be in partnership with raising a socially compatible dog while having fun.
