I've been taking my young terrier to K-9 Best Behaviour for about a year. The training has improved…read morehis basic skills but the best benefit has been the exposure to other dogs. I never have to worry about my dog encountering another in a negative way because he has learned to ignore when he needs to and socialize when he needs to.

The dog loves her too which makes it easy to trust her.

My 11 month GSD mix Mira and I love training with Tracy! We have completed two puppy obedience…read moreclasses and started beginning agility which has been a great fulfilling outlet that strengthens our owner/dog bond in line with general obedience. Tracy works well with the different temperament dogs in class and gives helpful individual advice. She has helped us work through some of the struggles of having a high strung/high energy puppy that gets overstimulated and overexcited rather easily. It's worth noting that my pup absolutely loves Tracy and is always super excited to arrive to class. I wholeheartedly recommend Whispering X K9 and will continue working higher levels of obedience and sport at Tracy's school for the foreseeable future of our long-term training plan.

We recently passed the Puppy Stage 1 class with our dog, Briar! She is now about 6 months old, and…read morestarted the class at 4 months. She has made remarkable growth (both physically and in her skills) over the course of the class. We are so grateful for Tracy's expertise, kindness, and love for all dogs! She even diagnosed a little bacterial illness that was quickly cleared up with an antibiotic (and previously ignored by the vet). Briar has become a very good puppy, and will be an even better dog as she continues to learn, thanks to Tracy. We will be returning for Stage 2 this month, and we're so excited to do so (especially Briar)! We absolutely recommend Tracy's classes.

I have a serious soft spot for this PetSmart location as it's where we adopted Puck (our first dog)…read morealmost 2 years ago. I was out here the other day and decided to stop in here with my dogs just to go. I call PetSmart doggie Disney and I figured that they had been in the car long enough that they deserved some time there. When I went in it brought back all the good memories of the day I adopted Puck. Then on top of that the staff were so friendly and nice to my boys. Yes, my boys. What I really like about this location is the size. You can tell it's one of the older locations but they have so much selection. I was able to get two new food bowls for a decent price and Oberon (my other dog) can't pick them up to carry it around the house as he is want to do with the ones I had before. He's the same with his water bowl and we had to change that too lol. I will be back here guaranteed, just a matter of when.

In a nutshell their "human" customer service skills are terrible. That said, their dog skills may…read morebe excellent - but at the end of the day a human is forking over the $$, so I think we humans count in some minuscule way. After doing a month of research on dog boarding facilities, I settled upon TNT in Abbotsford. That's an hour driving time with traffic but I want the best for my new puppy. The first phone inquiry I made to TNT was polite but harried. Okay, no problem they're busy, I understand. Btw, I spent $320 including taxes for 7 days of boarding plus extra services which included 2 walks a day etc. Not cheap. But that's okay I want the best for my pup. Two days after my puppy was boarded I made a call to check on my puppy to see how she's adapting. The lady on the other end said great but she seemed slightly irritated I was taking up her time and then she rushed me off the phone. Okay..... The second and last time I called was at 10am, (which is their office time), the day before pick up. I asked how my puppy was getting on and wanted to make arrangements for pick up. She was rude and rushed me off the phone once again with a promise to call me back but didn't call back until I called again at 6pm - now I was irritated. I mean, I was calling during office hours which are stated on their website between 8:00am-11am. I received a call at 6pm from someone else to whom I explained my frustration about this rude employee. She said they're busy and that the other employee at the kennel thought I was taking up too much of her time over the phone. What? A less than five minute phone call asking for an update? That's absurd. If that's what 300 bucks gets you... Upon arrival for pick up she told me my puppy received a little extra attention in the office because, well, she's a puppy. I'm grateful for their care of my pooch. If my dog had a great time there, then excellent but I wasn't aware of any of her activities other than the two 10 minute walks/day and the office time upon the arrival for pick up. Was she playing with the other dogs, did she get other socialization time? I don't know because they wouldn't tell me of her activities. Hopefully, she wasn't in a cage for 8 hours a day. I will never know. And that's what I'm not impressed with. The lack of communication skills - with humans - and the way my 2 phone calls were handled. Like I said on my way out, socialization of dogs is important but the socialization of humans is essential. Will not be back.

I opted for the meadow walks which are an additional charge. The location is very scenic and they seemed anxious to make sure Rip had a good stay.

Nice to have a boarding kennel I can feel good about.
