Testimonials

They have helped me make huge strides with my reactive dog, helping him feel safe and secure and they have helped take his obedience training light years beyond what I could have ever imagined he was capable of. It helps me, as a handler and owner, and my dog, live a much happier life.
– Client

Brought my puppy when he was little to be trained, they are extremely knowledgeable about dog breeds. I was very impressed.
– Client

I have been bringing all of my huskies here for training, grooming, daycare, and boarding since 2001. There is no other place I would trust with my fur babies!
