Testimonials
Me, a first time dog owner. Our PetSmart trainer answers all our questions & provides sound advice. Instructions are clear with lots of practice. PetSmart uses positive reinforcement rather than physical punishment to teach.
– N/A
I took my dog in for an exam. Not much of a wait to drop off my pup. The Vet called with his findings and discussed everything with me. I picked up my pup a few hours later. There always seems to be something extra that isn’t included in the wellness plan. Vet bills can be outrageous, but having the wellness plan makes a big difference even with the added fees. They give a discount on stuff that isn’t included in the wellness plan.

My dog and I have done the whole obedience course. 6 weeks each section (3) Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced. Now, we both feel confident to be seen in public anywhere, anytime! Thanks, Diego, at Christown PetsSmart.
