Testimonials
“We enlisted South Central Texas Dog Boarding & Training to help with our 9-month-old German Wirehaired Pointing Griffon, Ruby. After just three weeks, she was calmer, more obedient, and responsive to commands… Paul has also committed to being a ‘lifelong resource’.”
– Christian Porter
“Paul was amazing! We had a last minute issue with needing to get someone to watch our dog and found SCTX. He not only made us feel comfortable leaving our dog with him, he went above and beyond and spent a lot of time working and playing with him throughout the day.”
– Sarah Muñoz
“We had our 1.5 yo goldendoodle, Leroy, board there for the 4 week stay and train program! Walks are now enjoyable… His recall is 1000 times better! Paul was so great to work with… We recommend Paul and his program 110%.”
– Leroy’s Owner
