This is what the staff told me and my experience mirrors this. Second, the place smells like urine every time you walk in. Third, if you board your dog, they'll come home with worms, diarrhea, as well as the bag of treats you left for your dog that they didn't bother to give them. If you care about the conditions for your dog, look elsewhere. The positive reviews are all from 5 years ago when they had different ownership.

Grace has been a godsend for us and our dog. We adopted a rescue that has severe resource guarding…read moreissues and had not been socialized with people nor dogs. He's a unique dog, and for a while we weren't sure we would ever find someone who could effectively and safely handle him, but Grace was able to not only speak his language - but also safely integrate him into walks with other dogs and help muzzle train him. She quickly became his favorite person and was one of the only people he trusted. Grace went beyond the walks and basic training and would sometimes ask if she could take him overnight to get him used to being around different dogs (hers) and people. He always loves these sleepover and has learned to better read other dogs and communicate as a result. Our boy has come a long way, and we owe so much of that to Grace and Lucky Dog!

We had to find a kennel in a rush because of an unexpected situation. We called all the kennels we…read moreknew of but they were full, so we went looking at the "unknowns". This turned out to be the perfect place for our dog. Jeff and Grace keep great control over the animals, and keep the numbers way down. Our dog was unsure of herself for the first day or so, but quickly joined the pack because I believe she felt very safe at this place. Great big fenced areas to play in, and best of all communal sleeping on furniture! She felt right at home. Highly recommend this place. You can see her airborne flying with the pack in the second photo!

Very nice people. Trained my dog with a prong collar. She is moderately responsive now with that…read morecollar in place. But all bets are off with a regular collar. No amount of calm correction or red-faced screaming moderates unacceptable behavior in ANY way. They mostly train in isolation or on the sparsely inhabited sidewalks of their neighborhood, which is in suburban Franklin, not Nashville. Very little socialization or outside interaction. I am now 5 months post-boarding and I can't tell the dog had any training at all. It's a pretty sweet business model though because I'm sure they'll assert the fault is mine for not following through on their training. But that is not the case. Worst $3500 I have ever spent. I feel like an idiot. I have friends who have used other facilities with much better results. Go anywhere else.

We wanted just a short trim, just a touch up. We asked for a specific guard size, and described how he just needed his coat evened out. The gentlemen decided to tell us what we would prefer and his recommendation. Though we didn't ask for it. We politely thanked him for his input, then insisted we wanted to keep his coat longer. As well our golden was 3 1/2 weeks out of neutered surgery, his incision was far enough closed that our vet said we could take him to be groomed and bathed. However, we were keeping the soft cone on as it was keeping him from agitating the area. We asked it stay on, and the gentlemen then lectured us how he doesn't muzzle dogs and he thinks cones are malicious. you're a dog groomer that I'm paying, you're not my vet not licensed as a vet and I personally don't care how you choose to take care of your animals. It's not your place to lecture us on how we care for our animal! When we picked our pup up, he was shaven. Even had bald patches on his belly where the cut was terribly uneven. The worst part of it all. His whiskers were shaven down. (Golden retrievers whiskers should never be cut. They still haven't grown back!) My dog was scared, he had been kept in a crate in the back. To top it all off, I had to ask for the soft cone back. As they never had it on him while he was there. it was kept on the counter- unmarked. I had to describe it so the teenager at checkout could go find it and grab it for us. They lost 2 dog customers that visit. Our pup will never go back, as well my in-laws down the street have agreed they are not taking their cane corso/ Great Dane back. Ownership or management must have changed, it use to be such a nice place. Our dog is our family, it's my son. I don't need to be lectured on how to take care of him. That's between our vet and our family. If I choose a haircut, that doesn't mean chose your own instead. Lastly, if I tell you how best to care for my animal, the last thing you do is chose your own path. Irresponsible, careless, rude, unprofessional. You all can kiss my ass. If you love your animal as we do, don't take them there. My reviews are all honest, and I never leave bad feedback. This was truly terrible. I had to speak up.

I cannot say enough about the K9 Experts!!! I have a 60 pound German Shepherd that is a very…read morefriendly, sweet dog but she started developing some behavioral issues. Specifically, pulling on walks to the point that my neck and shoulders hurt, and barking/lunging at dogs while walking. I'd done training with other people/organizations but was not consistent with it, and therefore her behavior regressed and actually got worse. I'd also read various dog training books, but nothing worked. I found GlobalK9 and the K9 Experts online and could tell right off that they had a ton of experience with German shepherds and Belgian malinois and figured they could help. I got a call from Matt Burnett and he was very interested in my goals for my dog and got me a consultation the following weekend. After two private classes, they got me plugged with the intermediate group class and I was so impressed with how much Nyx improved each week!! Not only did they teach my dog the commands, but they also taught me how to communicate with my dog and convey my expectations to her. She's a more happy and balanced dog now, and continually improves as the days and weeks go on! It's clear that The K9 Experts love dogs and love what they do! I tell every dog parent I meet about them and can't recommend them enough!!!

From the owner: You can train your new family companion anywhere. So, what makes us stand apart?…read more Customized Training -We have learned through years of training that everyone's needs, wants, finances and time are variables that will determine how we can best help you and your pet. We offer free consultations and evaluations at our facility where we learn more about your lifestyle to best benefit you. We will discuss different training programs and tailor fit a program for you. Functional Training Training is only functional when a dog can perform the behaviors in any environment, with any distraction and with speed and reliability. We at The K9 Experts give you the training and tools to be able to achieve this with your four legged friend. Communication Dogs do not speak the English language but understand words through creating behaviors by repetition and reinforcement. We are going to help you and your dog understand each other better through different forms of communication and by creating behaviors you would like your dog to be able to perform, all while building a better relationship between dog and owner. Balanced Training Every dog learns differently and is motivated by different rewards. We believe in balanced training, where dogs are shown success in performing behaviors. This stage is known as shaping, where we create the behaviors and get rid of unwanted manners such as barking, chewing, digging, counter surfing, etc. When the behaviors manifest, we then use tools, timing, and

He came to our home for lessons weekly and we did a 1 week board and train, per his recommendation. We had a baby on the way as well, so we needed some serious help! Matty was so amazing from the first lesson. He taught us how to continue training between lessons, build on skills, and handle everyday situations where our dog was previously super reactive. Our frenchie still has his crazy personality but is a different dog when it comes to minding us and his overall demeanor. He's also been awesome with the baby as well, only because of the training we did with Matty before. We will absolutely use him with any other dog in the future and would recommend him to anyone!
