My Bebe came home all pooped out from all the play time and attention and that makes me very happy! I highly recommend this boarding kennel to all animal lovers who want the best for their pets! Northland Boarding was so good about giving me updates on my Bebe when i would call to check on her & they even sent me some pics of her and I could see for myself how happy Bebe was and that also makes me very happy! Bebe will be going there again in March and we plan on using this kennel alot in the near future! 1

Crazy to think that ending up with 2 rescue style dogs, within months of eachother that were more so in the "timid" category. One we have had one since last November that just went for her first time about a 2 weeks ago, then came home, saved another and decided he was breaking out of his shell and after just the first experience, we figured "let's see what Jess can do!!" Sure enough, the dogs once again loved every bit of it, the contact each time was on point, her attitude and hospitality while also giving you a hint of how she runs her business. Thats how it's done!! But also, the flexibility was perfect, easy to get ahold of and definitely knows what she's doing. Even on our trip we got to share with everyone all the pictures AND videos she was gladly enough to offer!! Our little girls kept saying right off the bat how much they missed there puppy the first time, but shortly after the pics and videos started coming in and had the whole rental car holding back tears of joy and definitely some laughter. Blows your mind sometimes that just from just a random call from word of mouth, BAM! Just like that, it might not be often, but the "shy, timid" doggos that once were, now have a second home whenever they visit just like that. And she sure is a whisperer, because that shell they were trying to break of is gone!! We're not quick to judge good or bad, but remember it's all in the real time confrontation. She nailed it! We caught on to the "Auntie Jess" as well and if I even mention it while referencing, doggos ears perk right up! Well from one big family again to yours.... THANKS AUNTIE JESS!! PS. Did I mention we highly recommend?!?!

Stinger went to RR Professional Dog Training. He was…read moreassigned to Sarah at the Carlton location for "Service Dog Training". I was adamant because of the distance and it being winter (it was a 1 hour 40 minute drive both ways) but was struggling to find the kind of training I needed. I found them finally, I was so excited! We set up a phone call and I talked with Ram. I expressed that I have terrible anxiety and my dog would be needing to be trained for service and I have PTSD and Panic disorder. I requested that he would jump on my lap when he knows I'm having anxiety, to ground me and of course his basic knowledge like heeling and no barking for being in public. They agreed and told me everything I needed could be done with them! The start was basic training with him the first couple weeks, which she said he already knew how to sit and go down that I had taught him. When I went to visit and do an exercise with him the owner walked in and Stinger was barking like crazy at him and settled down once he knelt down to pet him. When I picked Stinger up January 16th he was barking uncontrollably when they walked in the building and I could tell Sarah couldn't get him to stop and it went on for a while. My heart sank because the barking was the most important thing that he shows he's behaving and wouldn't disrupt anyone by being my service dog. I have struggled with this most days and it's extremely embarrassing when you're in public and he barks. It's a lot of hospital settings due to appointments and things. I told them what was happening and they said tell him "leave it and snap his collar". That worked for a couple days. I don't think that's safe for his neck either the way Sarah showed me how to do it, it ultimately just scares him and I do not want to hurt or scare my dog when he should just listen to the commands.. Stinger is hairless. He requires clothing to keep him warm. Oct-Nov and Jan training months, I specifically stated he needs to wear his jacket outside. They sent me update pics and he was outside with no jacket each time. They called me and said Stinger has a cough, I was upset immediately and calmly said "have you been putting his jacket on? Because a dog can get a cough being too cold?!" She said the other dogs were puncturing it and that's why he hadn't been wearing it. I then said he has to wear it (AGAIN) and if it gets ruined I'll buy him a new one. Well January with the snow he has boots. I told them he does NOT go outside without these on and he cannot be out there for more then 10-20 minutes. When I went to pick him up the 16th he didn't even have his boots on walking from the kennel to me then we would be leaving. Lots of snow that day. It made me sick to my stomach, like was my dog being neglected of his needs? :'( The second time around when he was boarded for training he was not taught the up command for grounding like requested, she pretended she did but it was very obvious it wasn't trained. I asked for heel to be involved with his training because he must have not caught on to it well the first time around. This was not done. When I went to pick him up she had me play with a toy with him. Zero training. I followed all of the new commands he learned, everything to a T and always asked if I was doing something right. Continued every day and still do try. It's very frustrating :'( There were a lot of things the trainer could have done differently to make the experiences go better than they did. October 20th-November 14th - $2,400 (Picking up the 17th would have been a full 5 weeks). January 5th-16th - $1,700 (Picking up the 19th would have been a full 3 weeks) Training at Menards: November 20th - $75 December 2nd & 16th - $150 Training at McDonalds: February 2nd, 10th, & 23rd - $225
