Jackpawt's Happy Place…read more Since 2024, All Stage Canine Development has been like a second home for Jackpawt. Jackpawt, the Lucky Pup, on Amazon. https://a.co/d/02GVaEH8 Grooming day isn't just about looking handsome--it's one of Jackpawt's favorite adventures! Before Deena works her grooming magic, we always book him an hour of playtime, and sometimes another hour afterward because he just can't get enough. He absolutely loves the staff, zooming around with his furry friends like a little rocket. What makes All Stage so special isn't just the grooming, daycare, training, or pet store. It's the people. Every staff member is friendly, patient, gentle, and genuinely loves dogs. They treat every pup as if it were their own. They're one of those hidden gems tucked away in a busy strip mall, so if you blink, you might drive right past them. That's exactly why I wanted to share this post. Businesses like this deserve to be discovered, and fellow dog parents deserve to know there's a place where their pups will be loved, trained, groomed, cared for, and have the time of their lives. Thank you, Deena and the entire All Stage family, for making every visit such a wonderful experience for Jackpawt. We appreciate all that you do!

My wife and I were searching for a dog trainer form our 4 year old Frenchie rescue named Benny…read more Benny is awesome on walks but does not like people he doesn't know when we have them over to the house. What we loved about Wag Time and Don (owner and trainer) is that he does not use treats or shock. He employs voice and leash control. In reality Don trains YOU how to train! Honestly I was a skeptic! BUT we saw IMMEDIATE improvement during the very first lesson!! We have had 6 lessons so far, and Benny has come a long way! Life changing for us! Meet Don once and you will feel the same we do about him, his techniques, and his love for what he does!

Don has been training me to train my two dogs (an 8 year old golden doodle whom i have had since he…read morewas a puppy and a 2-3 year old rescue whom we recently adopted and who seems never to have been leashed before). They are being "worked " (trained) separately and, as of the past week (because it's getting dark so early and because it's now doable), they also get a long walk together. We have been at it about two months and have made significant progress (with lots of room for more!) Don't forget that it is up to the dog owner to do the work--neither Don nor the dogs can bear any responsibility for the lack of progress when the only way to improve the dogs' behavior is to be consistent in demanding (and enforcing) what you want. But Don is very patient with the dogs and me, so I can try to emulate his techniques with the dogs daily, between sessions.

We have a pure bred Catahoula who is "spirited and dominant" or tries to be the latter. We have had…read more3 sessions with Nick, owner of Consistent K9, and what huge difference we already seen in our Houla (often known as Houlagans because boy do they test you). Now, our Houla has gone through basic obedience training a while back and knows commands, but just is a bit "independent" at times and it can be challenging. Nick was able to guide us on how to train our Houla, using verbal commands, non- verbal hand commands, available tools, and his vast experience. I swear he is a dog whisperer. Please remember, YOU have to do the work too. You cannot expect anyone to train up your dog and not put in the required effort to maintain and reinforce the training. We have been guilty of that in the past too. No more though! Our desire is to have a well trained k9, who consistently follows commands and is a valued part of our family pack. We believe in Nick to much that 1) we will enroll our Houla in additional programs Consistent K9 has to offer and 2) have already refused to be poached by another trainer! We are so pleased with how the training is going and with Consistent K9. Thank you Nick!!

Nick is a very nice guy, but forgot about our initial consultation appt and our previous call…read more Nick also later forgot to forward a link to complete a deposit for upcoming training. Overall, displeased with client communication and punctuality. Going with a different trainer.

Mavia and her team are awesome! I am happy to have finally found a great dog training service…read more Everyone working here is very experienced with dogs and are great at explaining things to me. I have used other trainers in the past and this is by far the most progress I have seen out of my dog, Skippy. Before skippy was always pulling on her leash but now is starting to walk by my side. We have done about 3 classes so far and plan to do more! I can't wait to see how much further skippy can advance. Reminder you also have to put in the work. It can't all be on the trainers. :) I try my best to do my dog homework before next sessions.

Vader (our pup) was a quick learner and we started the structure at home, but we wanted to help him out with extra training. So we reached out to Prestige K9, and the response was very quick and the phone call to discuss what we wanted out of training was refreshing. We had him boarded over Christmas and new years, even with the holidays the results show - Vader is very attentive, listens to his commands, and is still the fun field lab we dropped off! All of our friends and family are impressed, and we are now those dog owners where people ask "how did you do that" - prestige did it! Do note you still have to keep doing the stuff at home in your routine, but we are very impressed and I would like to note Javier and especially Ally for how well they worked with Vader. We did our first follow up with ally and she is great, she brought out her dog to help Vader train with distractions and they got to play a little. This is where you want to take your dog people! I put a pic of an update they sent us of Vader for Christmas, and a pic of Vader and ally's dog doing place. Thank you guys!

Jenn is so personable and friendly, and the way she presents her training has been so educational…read morefor me (like, it's game-changing when you can understand how your dog's brain is working), and her training is so much fun for my dog. My dog has been....... unpredictable when it comes to meeting people and other dogs, and recently decided to eat our couch. This is on top of barking continuously at noises outside and jetting out the door when it's opened (she's been skunked twice because of this). She DOES hear me when I used to tell her to come, but instead of coming to me, she'd wag her tail and chase whatever's more important in the back bushes. After just ONE session with Jenn, we completely re-focused my dog's attention and have since addressed every one of our concerns AND have recently started scent-training, which has kept our doggo super mentally stimulated. It's been incredible to see the 180 my dog has made and seeing just how much fun she's having, and I owe this to Jenn. Thank you for helping discover what I've been missing out on! ‍

I have been going to this specific Petfood Express for almost 15 years…read more I won't be going there anymore. Over the last couple of years pet food express continues to change their policies about returns, etc. It used to be that if your animal didn't like a product, or it was not working them, you could return it and either get a refund or choose something else. Now they have a 30 day limit to doing that which changed sometime in the recent past. And a few weeks ago, I purchased something for my little dog that was supposed to be helpful for his teeth and instead it got stuck in his teeth, and it was very traumatic for him as well as for me, as well as dangerous to try to get it out of his mouth when he was freaking out. So I returned the item and was told that because the item was opened I don't get my money back. Thus another new rule. I had a receipt as well. In every other store if you have a receipt and there's a problem you get a refund. Not only that, but the girl who informed me that this has been the policy, which is actually not been a policy very long, was rude to me. It's very clear that petfood express is more concerned about the bottom line than providing excellent service and excellent products anymore. As a result, I will not be shopping there anymore. Thank you very much.

I could not recommend Kait more! She is professional, knows her stuff, and you leave every training…read moresession feeling empowered with the right tools to work on whatever behavior you need. She gives you clear, actionable steps & the results make life with our pup so much easier. She has been immensely helpful in helping us train our 8 month old dog since we got her at 8 weeks. 100% hands down the best money we've spent on our dog is getting Kait as our trainer!

Let me be clear, Kait is a miracle worker. No joke…read more We were looking for a dog trainer because our 1.5 year old pup had several bad habits we wanted to break. He pulled to an insane degree when we went on walks, he was prone to darting out the front door, and he jumped up on guests when they came to our house. Leash manners were my primary concern because sometimes our elderly family members liked to walk my dog, and I was afraid that the dog would pull so hard they would fall and injure themselves. I interviewed multiple reputable dog trainers in the area, but Kait was the only one who listened to my primary concerns and said she would address those right off the bat. The others seemed to have a pre-designed series of lessons and were not willing to deviate. To be clear, my husband had incredibly low expectations for dog training. He thought that our dog was so stubborn (he is) and his hunting instincts were so ingrained (they are) that he would always pull on a leash to keep sniffing for prey. My husband was convinced that this would be a waste of time and money. Kait came to our house for our first private lesson, and it's an understatement to say our expectations were low. Kait observed us interact with our dog, and even coined the term "sled dog" when watching him pull as we walked him down the street. She showed us some leash drills and then had us practice with him. By the end of the hour long lesson, the pulling was significantly better. Not gone, but it made it where we weren't using our body weight to hold him back just to get to the end of the block. I was impressed, but my husband was still skeptical. We ended up doing a total of 8 private lessons with Kait, and my dog's behavior has changed monumentally. We can walk him with a loose leash, and only a few occasional reminders during our walks. When he sees other dogs, he stares at them, but he doesn't try to lunge at them to play. If our front door is open, he stays back and doesn't dart away. He also rarely jumps up on people now. Most notably, after just a few lessons, my husband became an ardent believer in Kait's amazing dog training abilities. He now agrees that hiring Kait was one of the best things we did for our dog and our peace of mind. If I could give Kait 10 stars, I would! I have recommended her to as many people as I could, and I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again. With Kait's help, you absolutely will be amazed by your dog's improvement. Hire this woman before her schedule books up!

When it was our turn they mentioned how good our friend's dog was they brought all of his food, toys and personal stuff. Since he is quite big and there was another small dog in the waiting area they brought him around the back door. They were great with all of the dogs that we saw and would probably leave our dog there if we had one.

Last week, I went to Pet Express to find something for my dog. The staff there was so helpful and…read moreknowledgeable and she knew how frustrated I was. I even asked her to babysit real quick while I grabbed food next door. When I came back, the staff suggested that I contact Aaron from Intuitive Dog Training. Boy am I glad I did. I just had a puppy training with Aaron and boy am I psyched to practice what I learned. Aaron was so patient while he answered all my questions. He was also so focused on me and the dog. I was so impressed with his knowledge and creativeness. I took notes and all I need to do is purchase a few dog toys (teething kind), sod, bell, etc. I am enrolling in the puppy training course and also the adult courses. His price is amazingly affordable. You should definitely contact him or attend his classes. I definitely recommend Aaron.

I do not recommend Intuitive dog training for aggressive dogs…read more I adopted a pit bull from the shelter and did not want to take her out into public until I worked with a trainer at home. Aaron came to my house and introduced our dogs by having them meet and walk past each other. My dog was clearly agitated but didn't growl. Within minutes my dog and his German Shepard got into a fight. He clearly did NOT know what do (neither did I, that's why I hired a professional) and told me to "stick my finger in her butt" (this doesn't work, in case you were wondering). It was traumatizing for both me and my dog who has now been set back in her training and is even more untrusting of other dogs. There was a hose about 3 feet away from us but hindsight is 20/20. He does not believe in prong collars but may want to reconsider for certain dogs.
