The people there cared about my dog but they always came home wreaking of urine. Ace always comes home smelling fresh and clean. Frankie posts daily photos and videos and you can really see how calm and relaxed the atmosphere is. Ace is always so excited to see Frankie and seems a bit sad to go home lol. Frankie trained with Cesar Millan and she really helped Ace with his separation anxiety, leash pulling on walks, and potty training. I feel better knowing Ace will be with Frankie during the day while I am away.

We cannot wait to use Frankie again - we know Bodhi is already looking forward to it.

I am very grateful for the dramatic improvements.

Brooks Labradors is an absolutely incredible place. It's run by an amazing group of people that…read moreput out fantastic, well-rounded dogs. We bought a black lab puppy named Sierra from them in August of 2013. We brought her home for a couple months and worked on basic obedience with her. After a while it became clear we needed a professional to do some training. Our goal for Sierra was for her to be a well-rounded Diabetic Alert Dog. Brooks Labs took Sierra for 8 months. During that time I visited and saw her transformation. At the end of the 8 months her progress was phenomenal. She knows all of the basic obedience commands, has had extensive public access work, rides in a car well, and, of course, is a good alerter to low blood sugar. Brent Brooks also provides fantastic service 'after the sale.' We have kept in touch and he's always been extremely helpful with questions. I highly recommend Brooks labradors for puppies or for training. They are clearly very committed to what they do. A+

We had a horrible experience with Hilton Butler dog training and I am still just sick over it. Our…read morefamily was finally ready for a dog. We'd had two precious Shelties who had passed on & our kids were young at the time. My husband didn't want to get a dog, but wanted the kids and I to be happy, so we finally convinced him. Being that my daughter has asthma & allergies, we decided to get a labradoodle. She was precious, we brought her home at 8 weeks. The first two weeks were harder than we had ever expected or remembered! She was jumping and nipping on the kids, which is totally a puppy thing, but I was constantly having to rescue my 5 year old. Potty training was not going well. She ate mulch and ended up with colitis. Then she got an ear infection. We were in a puppy nightmare! My husband was ready to give the dog away. My daughter was devastated. After a weekend of ups and downs, we decided we would pay A LOT OF MONEY for Hilton Butler, this month long program. We were sure this would help us get to the point where our puppy wasn't perfect (we didn't expect a miracle!), but had a few basics down that we could work on from there. She cried all night long in her crate. She chewed everything. It was either get her trained, and miss out on a month of sweet puppy growth, or lose her forever b/c puppy life was causing a lot of stress in our family. It was not what I ever envisioned! We were not a happier family with the addition! Christine talked to me at length when I called to inquire about the training. She made me feel like I didn't need to worry about it, that when we dropped Winnie off they would "fix" everything we were struggling with. She put me at ease that this would be a game changer. And at $2000, it should have been. I was so hopeful that we would be able to make it work and that I could make everyone happy. I dropped Winnie off, after a tearful goodbye from the kids, and my CC was charged as I exited the driveway. Communication from then on was awful. I only got 1 picture of her the entire month and that was after my request. Texts were not returned promptly. I got the excuse of a phone being turned off, or sometimes just no response at all. Very poor communication. But, you assume....hey, they are working on a lot of big stuff with these dogs and I'll be patient b/c I want this training to work. We saw her at the 2 week point for a visit and were not impressed. We left feeling like they had a ton of work to do in the two weeks left. However, we were still sure at this point that she would come home with some improvement. Surely all these reviews were true?? So many 5 star reviews online. We couldn't have a dog who came back to us untrained. She came home maybe 5% better than when we dropped her off. She cried again incessantly when crated. She jumped on the kids. She peed and pooped in the house. And this is when I was taking her out every 15 minutes!! Another concerning factor was that she lost 4 lbs while in their care. A puppy should not be losing 4 lbs in a month. We were happy to have her back because we missed her & loved her, but we were still back to where we were when she left. After a short time, my husband was done. He really isn't a jerk, it must sound that way, but he couldn't handle the dog destroying our house. He was in an awful mood and telling me that he didn't want to be this way, but that he just couldn't handle the stress of the dog along with the stress he is already under. And, I was under stress too. I wasn't sleeping b/c she cried all night long and peed in her crate unless I took her out every 2 hours at night. We found a wonderful family for her. But.....We are out $2000 & still don't have a dog. My son asks to visit her every day. It's heart wrenching. I'm still not over it Part of their services include follow up in home training. After a miserable week, we asked that Hilton come that Thursday to help. We were doing everything the manual said but she seemed to have little to no improvement. I think any improvement she showed was merely due to the fact she was a month older. My husband took off work early so he could be home when Hilton came. He was scheduled to come at 4:00. I sent Christine a text early that afternoon confirming that he was coming. No response. Then, about 6 minutes til 4:00, I get a voicemail that he was on his way to our house but had to turn around because he got sick at his stomach. I believe that is a lie. Only they know the truth, but I do not think he really got sick. We really are owed our money back. The only thing they taught her was the word "off". It was successful about 20% of the time and something I could have taught her myself in a month's time. Bottom line is, we were robbed of our money and ultimately our dog. I wouldn't recommend them to to my worst enemy. They just want your money. They'll make great promises, but you'll get poor communication and there's no guarantee your dog will gain any skills.

I have 3 large dogs, all with different personalities. Unfortunately my girl Remi was reactive and…read moremistaken for agressive. Josh met with her and knew immedietly it was fear not aggression. We set up a 3 week board and train for her. During this time he communicated with me several times through out the weeks. Showed me videos of her progress and even asked me to bring one of my other dogs up whom remi fights with. So he could work with them together and help solve those issues. In the past I have had other trainers tell me from day one that Remi couldnt be helped. Not Josh, not his team. She thrived with them! When I got my girl back, she was calmer, focused and yet she was still herself. She loves Josh, she loves the people at velvet snout. The best part of their training program is that it doesnt end when you get your dog back. Josh and his team set you up for success as the dog parent. Giving you instruction to gain that same respect with your dog as he gets from them. Including follow up sessions. He was also aware that I was very nervous about triggers in my home. So he decided to bring remi home and show me what to do and how to react/correct those triggers in the house. I live over and hour away from this place and I will be coming back to let my dogs go to doggy daycare, get groomed or whatever they offer. Dog training anywhere can be a costly investment but there is zero regret with the training staff/program at the velvet snout. I will forever be grateful for Josh giving my girl, my pack, and myself a happier safer life!. Worth every minute and every dollar spent! My girl went from needing a muzzle and drugs just to go to the vet to being able to hang out in lowes and meet new people! If you are looking for help with your dog trust Josh and his team at rhe velvet snout. You will not regret it. He has a true heart for dogs and he will help yours!

We sent our dog JULY  for their four weeks program and had a wonderful experience with the dog training program. When I attended the initial consultation, I was amazed by how large, clean, and over-the-top the facility was. The talk lasted 30 minutes, and we spoke for almost one 1hour. They were patient, and we explained all our goals, which we wanted our July to be trained on. Tyler worked with July. We received daily "Pupdates" and report cards that included videos, photos, and an overall update on his improvement. I could tell Tyler cared about July as if he was his doggie. We are so proud and thrilled about the progress July has made. TRULY AMAZING! July's confidence built up, and his personality came through by the end of the 4-week board and train program. We can't wait to attend group classes and continue to board and bring him back to see the K-9 Culture team! I Recommend K-9 Culture to anyone looking for training for their doggie. Thank you, K-9 team & Tyler, for all your hard work.
