What Reviews Say

32 reviews analyzed

The facility is highly praised for its large outdoor play areas, structured daily routines, and the owner's deep commitment to dog socialization and rehabilitation. However, there is a significant divide regarding the use of electronic correction collars; while some owners appreciate the 'training' aspect, others report physical injuries and a lack of prior consent. Overall, dogs appear very happy and well-exercised, but the facility's transparency regarding equipment and physical access is a point of contention.

Lack of transparency regarding facility access

“you should demand to see the facility before you leave your dog, because Liz would not let me see it.”

Correction collar usage(3 mentions)

“She told me she used a shock collar on him, without my permission. It was never discussed until I picked him up.”

Difficulties with scheduling/logistics

“They were very difficult to deal with regarding pick up and drop off also.”
