We love Supernova Dogs! We tried a few training facilities in the north towns with our dog and…read moreSupernova was our favorite. We were lucky enough to take obedience classes, fun workshops, and the "University" day school (combo of personalized training & doggy playtime/daycare) with our golden retriever, Midas. All the instructors and assistants are fantastic! Supernova has a gorgeous facility and all instruction is based on positive reinforcement and helping your dog to make good choices. They do an excellent job explaining what each baby step is meant to solidify--so that you as a human aren't tempted to skip a step and then wonder why your dog hasn't consistently followed through with their obedience skills. Classes are usually small (and/or have assistants to help) so that your dog gets 1-on-1 time to help with any issues you're working through. While training and practice is a lifetime thing, we have noticed impressive success with Midas' training and get compliments on his behavior considering his young age. We could not have done that without the help of Noelle, Kim, and the rest of the Supernova team.

We called this place THREE times to enroll our puppy in classes. The first time, a man answered and…read moresaid he wasn't in the office and that he'd call me back in 10 minutes...he never called back. The second time, a woman answered and told me she'd call me later that day...she never called. The third time we spoke to a new woman (on speakerphone) who told us the day, date & time of the class and she confirmed our enrollment. We showed up (15 minutes early per their request) and there was one older employee doing agility with her senior dog, she largely ignored us. Then another woman, also an employee, came in asking us what we were doing there. We said we were there for puppy class and wondered where the instructor (and other people/puppies) were. She said that the instructor's Poodle was having surgery that week so there's no way she would have been starting a new class that day. Ridiculous since both my husband and I clearly heard the date & time AND immediately we both set reminders on our phone. We really wanted to take our puppy here since they have a pretty nice looking agility course and their classes included an intro to it, but they're so disorganized. It is clear that the owner(s) and instructors don't communicate too often or too well. I have five friends who recently got puppies and asked me if this place was good and I told them to steer clear from it.

Our pup (who was a Velcro dog with me at first) loves going to daycare and has become a much happier, confident, and sociable dog since he's started. Even his nap habits improved! The drop off and pick up at the front are so convenient, the hours are great, and our pup is well taken care of. You can tell he gets lots of love there! I'm so grateful for A Joyful Dog. I don't think we could manage our pup without them. Thank you

We were so anxious to board our special needs dog who prior to us adopting her, was at the city of…read morebuffalo animal shelter for a month. We worried the situation would be too similar and make her panic, triggering her medical issues. The staff at Joyful Dog was patient, kind, and empathetic. It was clear from our thorough conversation before booking that our pup would be in great care. They were understanding of our anxiousness at drop off, and gave us so much info at pickup regarding how she did during her stay (including a very cute report card!) We were so happy with our test boarding at Joyful Dog and feel assured and far less stressed about her next boarding, which will be for a longer stay. They are clearly genuine dog lovers, and great at dealing with us anxious dog parents as well!

We took our 8 month old pittie to The Pit Chic for a 21 day board-and-train. Our puppy struggled…read morewith impulse control and would often display aggressive behaviors/excessive barking out of frustration. He came out of the board and train a changed pup. He is now able to show restraint around other dogs, food, etc. Walking him is a breeze, he stays right by our side and rarely pulls. He no longer barks repeatedly at us or gets in biting moods. The structure that was provided by Kelli and her staff at The Pit Chic established a great foundation for our puppy that we continue to build on now that he is back home. 100% recommend these services. We will be bringing him back for future boarding as we know he is in good hands there

Camp Bow Wow is so clean it's unbelievable, I am extremely happy with everything about Camp Bow Wow and so is my dog! The staff is extremely friendly and they know every dog by name. This place fills up very quickly during the summer vacation time and during the holidays, so book your interview for the first time early and book your dog sitting reservation early. My dog is so happy and eager to come here. He wags his tail and gets really excited so I know that it's a great place! He loves playing with the other dogs! And I love that I can watch my dog play in the yard on the camera and also watch him in his kennel! Overall, I would never put my dog in any other kennel than Camp Bow Wow! I would give the whole Camp Bow Wow team 10 stars if I could! Great job Camp Bow Wow !!!

I really truly feel compelled to place my very positive experience and observations with both…read moreJanuary and Jason at The Dog Barn. I brought my 9 year old rescue pup to their facilities as I liked that not only do they offer grooming, but boarding, camp AND training. I was in search of all of the above and felt despite some negative feedback here on Yelp that any business that had all these services available must at their core be passionate about the subject at hand. Again, based on my personal experience......I was over impressed. First, the facilities are spotless. No aroma of uncared for animals, no dust or tufts of hair rolling across the floor. Bright and loving animal artwork adorn the walls. All the pups I met appeared well cared for, ears up, alert and happy. When conversing with Jason, the companies trainer, I learned so much! Jason was trained in the Army with dogs and has years of personal and professional experience. It was so clear to me that he is devoted and passionate towards the animals, his chosen trade, business family and community. Ultimately, after an extremely generous free (and required.....which I LOVE) assessment/evaluation both January and Jason determined the traits and factors that made my pup an in appropriate candidate to become a trained emotional support animal. I am so grateful foe their honesty, as I was so anxious to pay the very fair....but costly investment to undergo this process with my pup. It would have been a potentially fruitless and sad experience for both my dog, self and pocketbook. I feel both January and Jason are in this industry with their whole hearts personally and professionally with nothing but sincere intentions. I look forward to socializing and grooming my dog with them in the future. It is without ANY reservations that I would recommend this very capable business. Karen P.

I started taking my two dogs, Louie & Winnie, to daycare at Creature Comforts Pet Resort two years…read moreand ever since their first day we can't get enough. I feel that good customer service is hard to find in 2020 and the front desk staff couldn't be nicer when you drop or pick up your dogs. I love how there is 24 hour on site staff as well. I would never leave my dogs home alone overnight in case of house emergencies so why would I leave my dog overnight at daycare alone? I wouldn't and taking them to creature comforts I don't have to. I also love how if there is an issue with my dog whether they are at daycare or boarding I am notified right away and also when I pick them up there are notes down to the time of when this issue occurred. For example, my lab Louie got sick at daycare from something he ate at home the night before (he got into the garbage so I was expecting he might not feel good). And when I arrived to pick him up the front staff went above and beyond to reassure me that he was well taken care of and even feeling better. And he was! It was just another example of the staff going above and beyond for our family. We have tried many local daycares and honestly they do not compare to the care they receive at Creature Comforts. Their grooming appointments are always on time, they come home exhausted and happy from playing with their friends (this is especially nice in spring when running outside isn't an option with the mud). And in the summer they love playing outside in the splash park and not being stuck in the house all day. It's a small price to pay for not feeling guilty and making them be stuck in the house all day while I am at work- we love it! They get to be dogs for the day running wild and free in a save environment and I get to focus on work and not needing to leave early because I feel bad they are at home. It is an experience you don't want your dog to miss.

HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE place to bring your fur baby!! They lie, they tell you that your dogs get five…read morewalks a day while boarding, but fail to tell you they actually DO NOT! Think about it. If they have fifty dogs there like I was told they did, it would take more than five hours to walk all those dogs. I watched on the cameras as one of the staff put what looked like a lasso around my puppies neck as he hid in the corner apparently afraid of her, and she dragged him across the suite to the door where along with my other puppy not so scared, went for a supposed walk which lasted literally TWO/THREE minutes! Yes MINUTES!! I was shocked, I called three times to just get the voice mail after I witnessed this. Then I left a message for return call extremely upset. I did speak to the employee that apologized for her actions, and gave an excuse that was a lie, because I know my puppies. How do dogs pee and poop if it takes longer than three minutes to walk to the back of the building to the outside? Then they want to charge you EXTRA, for accidents in their suite. Well no wonder they're having bowel movements and peeing all over, they're NOT getting enough time , if ANY at all to do their duty. I then spoke with the owner who had the nerve to tell me that maybe I got the time wrong that maybe it was actually longer, and totally disregarded the lasso, and dragging my puppy when I said " YOUR employee admitted it to me and identified herself, and also tried to justify why she did that. Another employee also witnessed it , and said it was NOT okay, that you do not pull a puppy/dog if they refuse. You attempt to show them it's okay, and help them feel comfortable with you it was also very nice outside, and that she offered to take all four of my puppies outside, but was told only two could go with her. Emily (the owner) said she would speak to Hannah (the staff member that told me her name and apologized for her actions) then get back to me. Well, that didn't happen! NOT surprised! I then asked Emily to review her cameras, I gave her the time frame when when it happened within minutes on the hour, when Emily said " iIt's LIVE footage, I can't review the past! " WHAT?" I thought? What if she had to go to court and show proof on the cameras that we pay extra for, she can't produce evidence... ?? BULLSHIT!! Emily also likes to try and charge for the accidents the puppies/dogs have in their suite/pen, which is a result of them not getting walked long enough, or AT ALL.. and make it like it's the dog that's the problem, not her POORLY run business. The communication is also extremely poor. You tell one employee something, and the next minute another employee is doing the complete opposite. I never said to separate my dogs during feedings yet they take my smallest girl dog and put her away( I don't know where) from my other dogs to feed her. Now my smallest dog is NOT afraid of my three other small dogs, if anything they're afraid of her! She's a tough little 5lb Yorkie! I questioned why she was gone for over an hour when they said she was eating separately from the others. I asked why? I was told it was as per my request. NOT!! I never told them that. They still after I said " no longer" separated her and fed her elsewhere. Also they took a water bowl out of the suite at approx 5:40 pm and never gave my four small dogs water until 8:05pm. That was after they ate dry food for dinner and supposedly went for a 15 minute walk that I can't prove. Now everyone knows that dogs go right for their water dish after a walk and also while eating dry food, yet NO WATER! I made three phone calls, and just got the voice mail. Then I called my daughter and told her I was calling the police, that my dogs don't have ANY water, and it's been two and a half hours. I also called the Angola number unaware it was another boarding place that Emily ran. Emily called me from that place earlier in the morning when I had concerns that needed addressing ASAP thinking it was her cell, that I could hopefully get ahold of her to get her staff to give my puppies some WATER! I then noticed on the camera that a lady was bringing in water, at 8:05 pm! They were all trying to get their little heads in that bowl as if they hadn't had water all day. We had to ask for a second bowl as there are four small dogs in there. Too many things went wrong without ANY accountability! The owner "EMILY " had excuses for EVERYTHING! I now understand why! why this place has OY 2 1/2 stars...
