    Melanie C.

    I want to start off by saying that I have been to this location on a couple of different occasions and all has gone well up until yesterday. Yesterday (4/20/24) I took my dog, Charlie, for a grooming appointment. He was a little anxious going in but he is usually is fine after I leave. His appointment was at 11:30 a.m. and at 2:00 Cassandra (who was the groomer for the appointment) called me and stated that they could no longer continue services as Charlie's nail got torn getting out of the kennel and now has an open wound. That they did take him to the Banfield, the vet onsite and that the nail would have to be clipped and would need pain meds BUT could not see him because I was not a patient there. I told Cassandra that this was unacceptable has THEY hurt my dog and as I understand mistakes happen, I do expect you to remedy the mistake you made as it has now put my dog in pain! She put me on a hold and went to talk to her manager and after a moment came back and said she would have to call me back. Cassandra then started being rude because obviously I am upset and wanted a call back ASAP as I needed to go to work. A half hour goes by and I finally get a phone call from the manager, Amber, who told me that they were taking Charlie to the emergency vet and would keep me updated through the whole thing. I did not get one single update on Charlie until he was done and back at PetSmart and ready for pick up. Unfortunately, my mother had to pick him as I was at work. When my mother arrived, amber was no where to be found to answer any questions we may have had from the vet visit and the people who were working had no answers and were also rude to my mother. And after all was said and done, after those 2 and a half hours, he ONLY GOT A BATH! You guys had no empathy for hurting my dog and acted nonchalant about the whole thing, like it happens all the time! I will never bring my fur baby back here and I will certainly be telling everyone I know not to come here! Cassandra, should NOT be handling dogs that clearly are to strong and will over power her. Her lack of empathy for hurting Charlie has truly disgusted me.

    Before my dog was skinned alive and being told "we can leave her face long".

    Do not go here for dog grooming! To difficult for me to explain but I was told they may need to shave my dog but they would not touch her face. My final words were ok but I would like her left as long as possible. Had her face been left normal I would not be going through PTSD from what they did to my baby. I have continued to tell her that she is beautiful so she will not develop a complex. It's been over 2 months and we are still in recovery. Will post before and after photos. I only went here because you could book online but please please please take your dog elsewhere!

    if you are late, they automatically cancel your appointment, without calling or anything written on the paperwork. Bad customer experience

Bonnie is absolutely fantastic! She tailors her approach to each dog and its owner to ensure the two connect and communicate effectively with each other, which makes ALL the difference in training. I've taking a number of training courses with my dog and worked with various trainers, but this is the first time I've felt there's a fantastic balance between instructing the dog and instructing the human. Oftentimes a trainer excels in one and may lack in the other, but Bonnie and Alternative Canine Training excel at both, which helps owner and dog work better as a team. I highly recommend these courses and these trainers to anyone with a dog, no matter if it's a puppy ready to kick off obedience training or an adult dog that could use a brush up. And added bonus is that the class takes place in a pet store, which may be a little frustrating at first since there's a ton of distractions that your dog is working against, but stick with it and your dog will not only learn how to focus through all those distractions but obedience at home without them will be a cake walk. I highly recommend!

Her space is comfortable, safe for the dogs and perfectly located downtown Ply. Judy also does 1-1 and home trainings too. She helped get us started with our rescue pup who was afraid of the sound of her own breathing. Judy taught us some key skills which included changing some of our habits in our house. With any animal that had an unknown or came from an abusive previous home, it takes time to help build trust and change some of the behaviors of the animal. With Judy's guidance and our diligence over the last few years to creating a safe and learning environment for our pup, she's a happy, loving, brave and mostly non-reactive dog. There's always skills we need to bring back into our rotation but it's all thanks to Judy to help us along the way. We've recommended her to many people and my mom is active in classes with her new puppy.

    I have always trained my own dogs, and they were all off-leash trained, responding to anything I…read moreasked. Back when I lived on a 40-acre ranch in Northern California, I had plenty of space and other dogs around to help with the process. When my wife and I were fostering dogs in Michigan, she fell in love with a Miniature Pinscher mix named Obi. He was different from any dog I'd trained before, and without other dogs to help with training, it was a challenge. We needed Obi to be able to travel the world with us and assist my wife with her PTSD. Within six weeks, Fred from The Dog Wizard trained us on how to make Obi an incredible companion. The transformation was night and day. Now, Obi walks calmly by our side unless given the 'free' command. He accompanies us to stores, ignoring everything and everyone around him. One of his biggest issues was reacting to other dogs on leash--no longer a problem! Recently, we visited a crowded cider mill with hundreds of kids running around. Obi stayed calmly by my feet, unaffected by the chaos. Kids asked to pet him, and I explained he was working. I can't say enough good things about Fred; he's like family now. What he did for us truly means the world to me."

I brought my 20-pound dog in for a mini groom and was surprised to be charged $85, when I have previously paid around $65. I also find it frustrating that grooming prices are not clearly listed, because I would like to know what I should expect to pay before the service is performed. As part of the mini groom, I specifically asked for his face to be cleaned up and showed a photo as an example of what I wanted. I was not asking for a full haircut. I was told that with a mini groom they only do a little bit to the face and don't really groom it. That was confusing because his face has been cleaned up during previous visits, and the description of the mini groom states that a face trim is included. When I picked him up, very little appeared to have been trimmed from his face. I was also disappointed with the customer service. I had my 7-year-old with me and was struggling to get my toddler's stroller in and out of the store. The employee at the front counter could see that I was having difficulty but did not offer to help. I understand that prices can change and that a mini groom is not the same as a full haircut. My concerns are the lack of clear pricing, the inconsistency between the service description and what I was told, and the way the overall interaction was handled. After being a longtime customer, I left this visit feeling very disappointed. Also, they blocked me on Instagram for asking why their prices aren't listed stating my issue. They just lost a valuable customer as far as I'm concerned. This is my Shih Tzu immediately after grooming. His face was barely trimmed, and you can still clearly see the longer hair around his eyes, muzzle, and ears.
