    Chico in our yard after going to daycare, nothing but smiles!
    Jacqueline C.

    I have been so thankful to Dogthrive and the care they take for my pup. Chico, my dog, is my baby we don't have children so he really is my child. We took Chico here when he was a puppy to do a temperament test and he did great and came back so tired which was amazing for us! We continue to take him here and he is almost one. I can only speak to the daycare as I have not had him groomed or boarded here yet but our experience has been very pleasant so far! There are many bad reviews for dogthrive but I feel like a lot of them come from unrealistic expectations. Chico for one is an excited piddler and as he's gotten older it's gotten a lot better but there have been times he's come home smelling like urine but it's always been explained why and was usually, "A new tech walked in he got excited and peed a little then rolled over to get a belly rub and rolled in the pee before we could grab him to clean it up." This has happened at home so it wasn't just a story they were telling us. They also have explained that they tried to clean him up and sprayed him with puppy deoderizing shampoo spray which I haven't seen with other daycares do. Since he is going into a place with lots of other dogs I don't expect him to come out smelling like he just got a bath so I think some expectation management helps with that. Just recently I have been shown why I love and will continue taking him to Dog Thrive. For one we were walking around a farmers market and a person steps out of their booth and asks, is that Chico?! And at first I was confused because I didn't recognize them but Chico did and they immediately let me know they work at DogThrive and they love playing with him and how much they enjoy having him there, they proceeded to get on their hands and knees to give Chico some love. For someone in their off time to not only recognize him but go out of their way to tell me they enjoy time with him and for him to have such an amazing reaction to seeing them outside of the daycare setting shows these people really love these dogs when we aren't with them. Secondly, I had some potential plans that would require me to board Chico that weren't confirmed yet so when I dropped him off for daycare I provided food and toys just in case and explained the situation. They were communicative and very understanding that he may or may not be boarded. I didn't end up needing to board him and picked him up at the end of the day. I realized I was charged for boarding anyway which makes sense since I made the reservation and was set to board. When I called and told them of the charge they not only refunded me for the boarding but also for the day of daycare (that he did partake in). How amazing is that? I love the staff and have nothing but amazing things to say about how well Chico has been treated here! If you don't mind the occasional necessary bath from a day spent playing and having fun then this is the place for you and your pup!

    Surprisingly for the last two years the groomers that I've been using have randomly closed or gone out of business. I'm so glad I found Dog Thrive. I was able to find everything I needed online from their awesome website. I arrived on time with my dogs and they immediately took them back and asked me what type of cut I wanted for them. The groomer explained recommended cuts and suggested ways to trim up their face. Within two hours, I got a call that they were ready for pickup. I was so impressed when I saw them that I was almost confused if they were my dogs. I'm happy that they offer other services such as broading, daycare and pick up services. I will be using them again for my future needs.

    i took my 7 month old schnoodle here to get her first big girl cut and i'm amazed by the results. they really brought the schnauzer out in her! i will definitely be coming back for her other grooming needs. the drop off time and pick up was very convenient with my schedule. the best part was it only being a 10 minute drive from my house! wish i discovered this gem sooner :)

    Listen, I'm not sure where to start because there's so much I want to cover regarding OLK9's Day…read moreCamp Program. First things first, Craig [Martin] is a Rockstar trainer. Period. Our very first interaction was great...his energy was wonderful...he did not disappoint! He was very methodical with his approach...explaining every step of the process...very engaging...constant updates of the Boyz progress...videos, photos...wait! The photos that I received were Ahhhhhhh-mazing, I mean impressive...only to learn that he's a photographer as well...but I digress. The Boyz are spoiled and I have no shame in stating this...*smile*. But they needed to learn manners. I have two large and very strong Standard Poodles - Mr. Brown and Max. They're extremely smart, pretty obedient in the house, but a huge challenge on walks...my poor dog walker. I wanted to be able to take them anywhere without the extended conversations of sit, stay, what are you doing? you know better... etc. At any rate, I'd been following OLK9 Maryland for some time online. I knew that training for two dogs was going to be a budget buster. Thankfully, I was able to take advantage of the "Black Friday" or "Cyber Monday" (can't remember which one it was). I cannot say enough about the great experience I had...the Boyz were happy to see Craig each day which was a HUGE relief for me. Yes, additional work/training on my part is required...to me that's a no brainer. As a responsible pet owner, I want to make sure that there is consistency and an expectation that my Boyz are well behaved and well mannered. Which means I have to do the work. Funny, as I was driving home from our final session, I was so tempted to take them on a short walk because I knew it would be enjoyable. But decided to wait until morning... I'm so excited to be able to have an enjoyable walk with these guys... less scolding and more bonding. Well worth the time and financial commitment. Thank you OLK9 Maryland for bringing additional joy to our home... things are definitely more "manageable". I'm really looking forward to our walks, especially since there will be NO more pulling! Can't wait to be able to take them to the "brick and mortar" with me once it's open! "Life Changing K9 Training"

    I wasted over $1,000 to unknowingly abuse my dog through Off Leash K9. I sought help because my dog…read morewas reactive toward other dogs, loud vehicles, and people. I was desperate to help my dog and myself and Off Leash K9 had good reviews. What these folks didn't tell me was that my dog's reactivity, what I thought was outright aggression, was actually fear - that she was scared of all of these things and trying to protect herself from them. So with the use of the e-collar (really just a shock collar let's be honest), I punished her every time she showed a fear response at Off Leash K-9's direction. This definitely changed her behavior, but rather than helping her feel more comfortable with the things that scared her, we instead punished her for being afraid and taught her to hide her fear responses. I wish I had looked at the science behind dog behavior, because I now know research shows that punishment through things like e-collars, buzz collars, spray bottles, etc. are incredibly counterproductive to changing dog behavior long term and they seriously traumatize the dog. I'm so very grateful to have met a Fear Free trainer who taught me about positive reinforcement. It has improved my relationship with my dog immensely and it has ultimately lead to the sustained behavior change I was looking for. Please do not waste your money on abusive, ignorant training through Off Leash K9.
