This was not the right program for our bichon mix. Our main reason for seeking a board and train…read moreprogram was help with potty training which means the trainer needs to place them on a schedule. This did not happen. Our dog came home with a scab on his neck from the E-collar which has made me choose not to even keep up with this form of training. If the collar doesn't hurt them then why does our dog have a visible injury on his neck. He came home more anxious and trembling which he never did before when we reprimanded him. I believe our dog was one of many dogs and they should not have taken on more than one dog at a time. This program was a waste of $2600 and our dog spent 18 days away from us only to come home not potty trained with no schedule. The owner Daniel was not apologetic and defensive of his program. He never apologized for my dog sustaining an injury from their e-collar usage. I absolutely do not recommend this type of training for small, companion dogs. Our dog is stubborn because the breed is notorious for that but he should have been sent home if he wasn't responding well to training. Instead the collar was mis-used and I don't trust anything related to this method or company any more.

There aren't enough words for how AMAZING this facility is and has been for us!!! We welcomed a new…read morebaby in December. To prepare for this we brought our 3 dogs to be trained in November. When we got them back they went from completely untrained to trained in every way! Door manners, in the car, on the leash, and other basic commands, you name it! They were crazy about food and now they will sit in front of food and wait to eat it when they are told. It's amazing! We then brought them back for a tune up when our son was born. It was awesome knowing they were with people who knew them and loved them. Our dog Charlie ran and jumped in the lake immediately! Happy as can be. A huge shoutout to Derrick! When our son was born 4 weeks early he went out of his way to pick our dogs up when we were stuck at the hospital. He truly loves the dogs and cares about the families. You can tell this is his passion and it shows through his work! Lastly, Anthony has been fantastic to work with throughout too! Due to him and Derrick we will continue bringing our dogs back here when we need boarding knowing they are in the BEST hands. If you're looking for a great training facility with the best people, look no further. You found them!

Our family adopted a dog named Bear. He was not well behaved and was causing a lot of stress in our…read morefamily to the point we considered re-homing him. Fabian at the Dog Wizard was able to turn everything around for us thankfully. We boarded Bear at the facility in US 64 and Fabian worked with him daily. What he graduated from the program he was sitting and lying down in his place every time we asked. Before training he refused to go on walks because of his intense fear. Now, we take him on walks around the neighborhood every day. Not only was Fabian effective but he has repeatedly offered to meet up with us to work with Bear for no extra charge. Every two weeks we also can attend alumni classes on a Saturday at local parks which helps Bear keep up his training. I can't say enough about how great of a job Fabian did. He saved Bear's life. We are eternally grateful to him for that.

I sent my dog, Venezia, to The Dog Wizard hoping for some progress--but what came back home was a…read morewhole new level of calm, focus, and confidence I hadn't seen before. The change in just one week was honestly incredible. Brandy was absolutely fantastic throughout the entire process. She clearly has a gift--not just with dogs, but with helping owners understand how to continue the training at home. She took the time to explain everything clearly, answer my questions, and make sure I felt prepared. The drop-off visit was especially helpful. It made a big difference being able to walk through the house routine with her and see how everything translates in our own space. Brandy brought not just professionalism, but a great energy to the experience. I Highly recommend The Dog Wizard, and if you get to work with Brandy--you're in great hands!

Gregg helped us with our previously unpleasant dog walks! Our little girl was dog aggressive on…read morewalks, and also tried to attack anything "suspicious", including the hairdryer, vacuum cleaner, broom, hairbrush, etc. Greg gave us some good tips on our first phone call and then came over for the main visit to teach us how to train our dog. We had both previously learned about dog training from other training sources and Gregg's tips were different and much more helpful for this situation. It's been just under a week and we already see a big difference. Greg cane to our house to work with us and our dog and then offered complementary follow up over the phone. If we continue to have any issues, we can pay him to come back, but things are going well so far! He's reasonably priced (a LOT more affordable & pleasant than sending your dog away) and his methods work fast. Highly recommend.

I wish I could give 10 stars! Dawn is amazing! We interviewed 3 trainers and hired 2 of them (with…read morelessons) that didn't work out before connecting with Dawn. I can't even express how glad I am that we found Dawn! Her training style and personality fit perfectly with ours. Dawn has a special gift and connection with dogs, our Bentley (8 month old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel) absolutely loved her. Everything about her training made sense, from start to finish, as she explained (and re-explained, if necessary). She bonded with our Bentley, he came to respect what she was teaching and he was willing to please and obey when she was with him. Dawn gave us homework each week, with handouts as reminders, and did a recap at the beginning of the following week. After training hours, she even sent us a video of her demonstrating the process with her own dog once when we couldn't quite get a certain technique. We didn't always do our homework 100%, but Dawn was able to move forward and teach Bentley the next lessons. We have a lot to learn still and it is a daily learning process for both dog and owner, but are thrilled that we met Dawn. I am already considering bringing her back for a recap and tweaking in a few months. I highly recommend Dawn and Coast Dogs, no reservations whatsoever. You will not be disappointed and you will get results.

I finally got an appointment and was told if I didn't have proof of updated vaccines they would not be able to provide service. I emailed the record to them since their online platform was not uploading it. When I arrived for the designated appointment there was no greeting or welcoming face. I was asked if I wanted to speak with someone and when I asked who that was I was told it was the groomer. I said sure. While waiting I asked if they need to see the vaccine record and was told no they had it (thanks for letting me know). A woman came out of the grooming area and took my dog (but it wasn't the groomer whom I was told would be working on my dog). I was just left in a confused state and not very comfortable about leaving my dog there. They did a decent job on the mini groom and my dog did not seem stressed so well done .

We trusted them with our sweet little Shih Tzu, and they neglected to feed him for 4 days!!!…read more I don't know how this is okay. We left to go to Disney World Tuesday morning and came back Friday afternoon. When we picked him up all of his food was still in the bag along with his dog treats to chew on. When we called, whoever was at the front desk said that they had "a computer error" and that his feeding instructions were not available. Can somebody tell me why they didn't call us for four whole days? Our dog looked exhausted, and not himself. When we put some food in front of him at home, he devoured it. The woman said that they fed him other food, but that he didn't eat a lot. He just sort of grazed. How do we even know that's true? We were not able to figure out how to view him on the camera system at all. When we dropped him off in the morning for his personality test, they thought that he didn't actually have a reservation. But then they found it. Also, I was told to fill out the 17 page survey online, which, by the way, asks, completely stupid questions. I was told to fill the survey out online and then also print it off on paper to bring it in because something to do with their computer systems. Also, by the way, I emailed his shot records, but they couldn't find it due to their "computer systems" so they asked me to bring in a printed copy. We had some misgivings about the place based on all of the apparent computer problems. I think the term "computer problem" for them is really just a euphemism for we are confused, incompetent, and completely disorganized. I will never trust our dog with these morons again.
