We're now fully off leash, confident, and connected in a way I never thought possible. My dog has struggled with reactivity, and Zack gave me clear tools, structure, and confidence to help him. We now have a daily routine that fulfills him both mentally and physically, and I'm starting to feel like the calm, consistent leader he needs. The entire process was smooth and supportive -- starting with a phone consultation, an in-person evaluation, then a board-and-train program with weekly training sessions and follow-up sessions afterward. Zack is encouraging, patient, and genuinely cares about helping both you and your dog succeed. If you're looking for lasting results and a stronger bond with your dog, I can't recommend Zack's Pack K9 enough! When I get another dog, I am 100% getting them trained with Zack's Pack K9. If you're thinking about getting your dog trained - DO IT! It is the most incredible feeling to have a trained dog in sync with you!

Zack's passion for dog training is contagious!…read more It used to be so stressful taking our dog for walks because we'd constantly be on guard about other dogs. Our sweet boy would totally stop listening to us, would pull so hard on the leash and charge other dogs walking near us. It came to the point where we didn't even want to walk him anymore. Zach fixed all of that and we are so thankful that we can now enjoy our dog walks without the fear of him being aggressive or pulling hard while we're walking him. I never thought I'd say that we now enjoy walking and taking our dog places. Our dog still doesn't really like other dogs, but at least we can enjoy time with him away from our house. He just ignores any near by dogs and focuses on us, which is amazing. Zack's Pack also helped us with our dog's resource guarding! When we first brought our dog home from the shelter he would charge our cat whenever his favorite toy was around. Such a relief to not have to worry about our dog attacking our cat anymore! Zack also donates many training hours helping rescued shelter dogs become more adoptable. He will even help you pick the best dog for your family! Highly recommend!

A Cautionary Experience - Please Visit Before You Commit…read more ["Dog recovering after eating toxic material at boarding facility" In the news, January 2025. See image in post for link] I rarely leave critical reviews, but as a devoted pet parent, I feel a responsibility to share my experience at Puppy Manor in hopes it helps others make an informed decision. While I was initially drawn in by the promise of open land and splash pads, what I observed in reality was quite different. Yes, there is a splash pad--but I also saw multiple dogs standing on a large, dry asphalt area as the afternoon heat began rising. I expressed concern and was reassured the staff wets the ground as it gets hotter. Still, it was concerning, especially in Florida's climate. There's also a significant grassy area where dogs play, which sounds ideal--until you're pulling burrs, burdock seeds, and foxtails out of your dog's fur every day. While I want my dog to have fun like anyone else's, I also believe daycare should be both safe and reasonably maintained. There was no sign that the dogs' time in muddy, debris-filled fields was limited, nor any clear effort to improve the space. Despite being told the facility was "under renovation," I saw little evidence of actual improvements. The outdoor drop-off and pickup has a very industrial and dated look to it. On one visit, I waited with another dog owner for nearly five minutes or longer--no one was at the front, and no one responded to us. We knocked on doors with no luck. Only after the other owner called the facility's phone number did a staff member (Vince) appear and tell us she (he) had been making dinner. Meanwhile, we knew the dogs were crated and ready to go--there is simply no excuse for no one being available to release pets to their owners. That experience alone left a lasting impression. The staff dynamic is inconsistent. Brianna, while sweet, often seemed distracted and disconnected in conversation. Vince, on the other hand, was kind, helpful, and clearly loves the animals in her care. I truly appreciated the adorable photos she sent me--it made me feel, at least for a moment, that my pup was happy and being looked after. The pictures were so cute. But even with those thoughtful touches, my gut just didn't feel right the longer I continued bringing my dog there. I never felt fully at ease leaving my dog here, and to me, that says everything. It reminded me of the uneasy feeling you get when leaving your child somewhere you're not fully confident in. I've taken my dog to several daycares across Tampa Bay and beyond--this one gave me the least peace of mind. Before enrolling, I strongly recommend stopping by unannounced, outside of the 1:00-3:00 PM "nap time." Ask yourself: are the dogs lounging calmly in the advertised "acres of land" with attentive staff, or is a single person sitting in a chair watching over ten or more dogs? My observations leaned heavily toward the latter. Also, be sure to ask detailed questions about pricing. While Puppy Manor does not offer grooming services, they charge $30 for a very basic bath--no brushing or extras. Even with that option, I still found myself bathing my dog almost every day because of how dirty she came home. Their prices are not significantly lower than other, far better-kept facilities. I even reinjured my back twice just trying to wash and rinse my medium-haired dog after daycare. She sleeps in bed with me, and I simply couldn't bring her in the house in the condition she was in after pickup. I truly admire pet parents who don't mind muddy paws on their carpets or furniture--but for me, home is a place of comfort and cleanliness. While I absolutely know she's a dog, I still expect her to come home somewhat clean. Lastly, I encourage potential clients to view online reviews and photos with a healthy dose of skepticism. My direct experience didn't align with what I saw online, and it made me question whether the glowing reviews were from verified pet owners. Puppy Manor looks nothing like the curated images on Google. If you love your pet as much as I do mine, I sincerely recommend exploring other options. Cost matters--but so does cleanliness, communication, and the peace of knowing your dog is truly cared for.

Beware of having your dog here for day care or boarding. I trusted the team to care for my dog but…read moreshe was placed in a kennel with FRP that has a toxic material in it that is potentially deadly if ingested. The boards were hung inside the kennel where my dog or any dog could chew it. My dog unfortunately did chew the last night of her stay and became more and more lethargic during the day after ingesting this material in the night. The manager on duty the morning she sustained her injuries assured me she would call me if her condition changed or worsened. She did not call me and had said she was off at 1 pm. I called just after 1 pm and she informed me that our beautiful and sweet girl was lethargic, tongue swollen and hanging out of her mouth and that she was unable to get her tongue in her mouth, it was so swollen. She did not call me or alert me in anyway that her condition deteriorated and so severely. I asked her, Jessie, to take her immediately to the Gandy Pet Hospital and she did not. She told me it probably was nothing serious and not to worry about it. I called, texted and literally begged her to take her to Gandy Pet hospital a couple blocks from Puppy Manor. She did not- she never did- told me she was off and to contact the other manager. It was over four hours later that Heather took Elsa, our husky, to Gandy Pet Hospital and then was almost immediately transferred to VEG on Dale Mabry. I was flying back to Tampa and was told my girl may or may not make it before I arrived back on my flight. Fortunately, she did survive and she was almost dead when I arrived. I was told by the doctors she had severe ulcers in her mouth and she was likely not going to survive. They worked so well with here, life saving measures and transferred her to Fetch Intensive care hospital in Brandon. The doctors here kept saying this was not from chewing plastic- they she had some kind of chemical poisoning or electrocution from her injuries and state. I kept asking questions of the regional manager and then learned about the styrene toxic and poisonous chemical in her Kennel which is what she chewed. The Veterinarian was able to treat her and she had a very long, lengthy and costly recovery of over $16,000. I have all the itemized receipts I can post here. The owner paid $4000 and waved her $1800 boarding fee- leaving me with the balance - just over $10,000 and a very sick girl which was not guaranteed to survive. She did survive and it was a very long healing process with nine medications per day for about a week, feeding her through a feeding tube that was placed in her neck, through her esophagus and into her stomach. The FRP boards with styrene in them are no longer hanging in the kennels and I would not trust this location to care for your dog. The agreement they claim I signed, even though there is no signature on it- maximum to pay for a dog $500 or the cost of a dog. Very disturbing and I am blessed to still have my precious girl, Elsa.

I think he secretly wishes for me to leave so Terry can come over and take him on walks. I love getting email updates and pictures after every single visit so I know that he's doing okay. At your meet and greet they'll provide you with a lock box, which makes it super easy since you don't have to worry about leaving the key out or getting the key back once you return. Booking is a breeze- everything is online! You select what kind of service you want and what time slots you need and you're done. You also create a profile with specific instructions for your pet- feeding times, walk schedules, where food is located, etc. I can't recommend Unleashed Tampa Bay or Terry more!

Then they back pedaled and said they did not give our dogs meds, they were confused with other dogs. What?! I also requested the time to be no later than 11:30/12...many times they came at 1pm, a couple times at 1:30. I go to work at 7am so this was a huge problem and I didn't really appreciate being lied to. I felt like they didn't respect me and my love for my dogs. Bad vibes all around.

Service enrollment, shot verifications and required auto payments are on completed online. Just proving my limited experience/information only. No shade. I was denied service for my 20 lbs dog 4-hrs into a 6-hr evaluation due to his behavioral issues when in new environments. He takes a couple of days to learn a new routine and warm up to multiple people at one time as he's done in previous facilities in other states. They are a fast paced facility & constantly move dogs between 3 different areas (indoor & outdoor and then into individual rooms for breaks during the day). Seemed like a great place from the surface. Closed door environment to pet owners was just a tad bit concerning especially when their aren't any play area cameras for customers to view.

I did a consultation with Raymond who knew exactly what I was talking about. I felt comfortable letting my dogs go to Raymond's academy for 5 weeks. This was the last resort otherwise one would have to be rehomed. Which would have been devastating for me, since I was already in loved with them.

We arrived at VEG ER believing our baby girl, Joy, a 13 year old shih tzu, was having an allergic…read morereaction to a vaccine. Her face was swollen, she was uncomfortable, and we were deeply worried. Dr. Jamie Davison conducted a thorough evaluation and helped us understand that Joy may have been reacting to an insect bite. During her examination, she also identified fluid in Joy's uterus, raising concern for pyometra. For those unfamiliar, pyometra is a life threatening uterine infection that can lead to sepsis, organ failure, and sudden death if not treated promptly. I will be honest. Given how frequently "lifestyle treatments" are pushed in veterinary medicine today, I was cautious and protective. We were worried about both the severity of the diagnosis and the cost and risks of surgery. I also considered seeking a second opinion. Dr. Davison did not rush us. She walked us through every step, from bloodwork to ultrasound findings, explaining what she was seeing and why it mattered. She earned our trust gradually and professionally. When we made the decision to operate, her attention to detail stood out. She avoided the large external stitches we have seen in the past, and when prescribing medication, she remembered that I had mentioned Joy does not swallow pills and provided liquid medication instead. Those small considerations made a meaningful difference in her recovery. Further testing of Joy's uterus after surgery confirmed tumors. Removing them likely prevented a catastrophic outcome. What began as a suspected allergic reaction became a life saving intervention. It has been a week, and Joy is steadily returning to her loving, spirited self. If it were not for Dr. Davison's thorough examination and clinical judgment, we might not have discovered the underlying condition in time. We are deeply grateful to Dr. Davison and the entire VEG ER team working that night, including nurse Loni, assistant Fred, and CEC Kalyn. Their professionalism, clarity, and compassion made all the difference.

I was able to book the last same-day appointment online for 4:30pm, but thanks to Tampa traffic, I arrived at 4:46. Even though it was past the 15-minute grace period, the front desk team -- especially Megan -- reassured me they would still happily see Sunny. That grace and understanding alone meant so much. They also offered complimentary beverages, and the apple juice I grabbed genuinely helped me calm down after the hectic drive and worry about missing the appointment. Sunny was being seen for a possible ear infection, and Christina, our vet tech, was absolutely wonderful. She listened carefully to all my concerns, explained the next steps clearly, and provided a detailed estimate before any treatment. She treated Sunny with so much kindness, giving her plenty of treats and pets to keep her comfortable during the exam. Dr. Adair Duvall was equally fantastic. She walked me through treatment options, reviewed some dental treats and an ear solution I had previously bought on Amazon, and gave thoughtful recommendations for products that are actually proven to be more effective. Her expertise and patience were incredible. At checkout, Sunny was treated to a complimentary puppuccino, which absolutely made her day! And the next morning, Thay from the office called to check in on how she was doing, which was such a thoughtful touch. The care, kindness, professionalism, and grace we received here made me officially switch Bayshore Animal Clinic to Sunny's primary vet. I can't recommend them highly enough.
