This is a long overdue review. We sent our husky/shepherd mix rescue to Desiree in June. We had…read moreAmerican Eskimoes and were not at all prepared for the husky energy, stubborness, and seperation anxiety. Rocket is now 18 months old and pretty close to a perfect dog. Walking her is a dream. Our old Eskie is dog aggressive and Rocket blocks for him when we encounter offleash dogs on our walks. We had never been trained to use an e-collar. It is a game changer. And, better yet, Desiree is commited to maintaining her relationship with the dogs she trains. We kennel both of our dogs with her and know that she is just a call or text away if we run into any problems.

We got incredibly lucky to come across and work with Juan. We did our first board & train for our…read morepup, Casper, at about 4/5 months old. Juan instilled all the basics of obedience in him and to this day, works with Casper to truly understand how his mind works instead of pulling generic tricks out of the book. With two years down the line, we've continued to work with Juan to learn how to best communicate with Casper and to build a stronger relationship and trust. Without Juan's guidance and expertise, I don't think our relationship with Casper would be as solid as it is today. We will continue to go to Juan time and time again and ALWAYS recommend him to our friends and family. Everything we know is thanks to his hard work and dedication towards his clients. He's the best!

Alex, Kaylin and Maya are great! We brought our 6-month old puppy for socializing and life skills…read more She is doing great! I can't say working with them directly caused this, but I'm sure it was a big part! The adolescent class and entire experience is very well run. They gave great advice in my questions after class. I was hesitant to start working with them, but I'm so glad I did. I was a little put off by the few reviews saying how rough Alex was with dogs, but I have never met someone more empathetic to dogs. Alex can be a little abrasive to people (which he openly admits!), and my guess is the reviewers took it personally and resorted to slandering a local business. I don't believe the reviewers. Also, keep in mind the bias of online reviews, and especially online reviews of pet-related things. No one reviews for an average experience, you get mostly 1- or 5-stars (sorry to contribute to this bias). I was hesitant to pay $75 for a brief consult, but in retrospect, I wouldn't want non-vetted dogs in class!

Last summer, we adopted our first dog together. Knowing she was a high-energy, intelligent breed,…read morewe wanted to start training right away. After looking around, we were really impressed by Laughing Dogs' approach and reviews. We started with the adult group class when she was almost five months old, plus a one-on-one with Alex, and we've learned so much--not just about training, but about dog psychology and philosophy. Seeing real progress with our pup has been awesome, and now we're in our fifth month of classes! We also use their Daily Enrichment service since we're both at work most of the day, and it's been a game-changer. She's always so excited when they pick her up, and we love knowing she's getting great training and exercise while we're gone. More recently, we hosted a family gathering and one of the family members brought their shy, reactive dog. That dog had had previously shown her teeth to ours. Beforehand, we reached out to Alex and Kaylin for advice, and they gave us clear, practical guidelines to follow. Thanks to their help, the family gathering went smoothly, and our dog handled it perfectly. We can't recommend Laughing Dogs enough!

I sent my dog, Milot 4.5 months, to Powerhouse K9 for a three-week board-and-train program. As a…read morenew dog owner, I'll admit the process felt a bit unconventional, and I decided to wait a few days after she returned home to write this review so I could evaluate the results objectively. Now that we are home, I am incredibly pleased with the outcome. Milot's behavior has shifted significantly for the better. Anthony spent two hours with me during pickup to ensure I understood the commands and techniques he used, and by implementing those daily, I've seen a massive difference in our routine. While the 'behind-the-scenes' of intensive training can feel a bit like a black box for a first-time owner, the results speak for themselves. If you are looking for a program that delivers a noticeable transformation, it is well worth the investment. I'm very happy with Milot's progress! Other things to note - Anthony was very responsive. Sent videos of progress and video chats as well - clean/brushed/bathe at least once before pickup - flexible with drop off and pickup Happy with the result. Highly recommend.

It raised major safety concerns for our older dog and toddler. He wasn't aggressive, but he was failing behavioral assessment for rehoming. We interviewed several board and train programs, but Amy at My Clever Canine stood out from the rest. She didn't sugarcoat anything. She was honest, realistic, and upfront about what to expect--and what might not be possible. That honesty gave me confidence we were making the right decision. Knox was never a bad dog--he just needed the right person to help him understand all his emotions and where to put them. And the program (specifically his trainer Rochelle) did exactly that. Today, Knox is a completely different dog. He's an integrated, joyful, and loving member of our family. We will be forever grateful of Amy and Rochelle!

First of all it was surprising that it closed so early!!! Second by the time the cashier came over it was literally 5:00on the dot!! I am not sure why they were completely shut down that early and yet the doors were open. The cashier said I could order online but the app didn't work, I truly don't understand, most people don't close their cash registers while keeping the door unlocked. I think it's really important to treat customers well and I feel like this was just a ridiculous way to treat a customer, clearly these people want to get out of the store as fast as they can and i get it, but there needs to be a little window of flexibility - I don't think I will return !!!

We are bringing our Puppy in for a Follow up for 3 months ago, our puppy had heart surgery, so we have been here a few times now, coming from Stockton. Worth the drive for a pet that you would call a family member. The campus grounds are super clean, lots of wildlife, birds, squirrels, etc. Not sure if they take any animal in, or if you have to have a referral, like we did from our local vet. And they were alot cheaper then the vet and had more openings.

I brought my dog here for emergency surgery after a serious injury to his leg. My local vet…read morereferred us there and had called ahead, so they were expecting us and had 2+ hours notice we were coming. (6PM arrival) Fast forward another 4+ hours to 10:30 PM. We finally get to talk to a resident, Dr. Olivia Taubenfeld, who tells me she doesn't think it's a degloving injury - without even examining him yet. I tell her I don't what that is, but describe seeing exposed tendons, ligaments, and possibly bone (which is also what I described when admitting him hours before.) Another 2+ hours go by and they finally examine him. (1AM) Dr. Taubenfeld's report? Degloving injury. Had anyone bothered to look under the temporary bandage put on by the first local vet, or even listened to my description of his wound, they would have seen and understood the severity of the injury. Now they're recommending amputation and treatment options have changed drastically because they neglected seeing him for so long. After getting a second opinion, I decide to pull him out of this hospital so he can get proper care. I'm told they'll do a wound cleaning first thing in the morning. I communicate persistently all day, making sure they're aware of my intention to transfer him that afternoon. I go to pick him up at 4 PM - they haven't cleaned his wound yet. I wait hours, desperate to get him out of there and to a vet who has the capacity to give him proper care and attention. At one point (6 PM) I can hear him crying and whining from behind one of their exam room doors. Apparently, they finally got around to cleaning his wound, only without proper sedation and pain management. Torture. Soon after, they bring him out of that room to me. While I'm carrying him to leave, as soon as we get outside, he starts peeing in my arms. (Sweet boy waited until he was outside.) I place him down, and he stands there peeing for I swear at least one 1 minute. His bladder had to be completely full. Had they even let him relieve himself the 24 hours he was there?! I will never bring another animal here.
