Crafty Canine Club

I have a 10 month old doodle, Bucky. I was very excited to hear that CCC was accepting new clients as I’ve read many great reviews and a family member of mine have only great things to say about CCC. We were on a wait list for a few months and respect the fact that CCC takes in a minimal # of dogs at a time for boarding so they can give quality service to our furry babies. We also love the fact that the staff at CCS are all dog trainers. Our initial assessment with Gabe was seamless and he answered our questions as we wanted to use their boarding as well as the training and board/train services. We noticed that there were no dogs barking and that was great to know as we needed guidance on how to help our pup with the reactive barking. We do plan on having him certified as a pet therapy dog in the future and pleased to know that CCC have training programs that can assist with that. We met Gabe and Austin for our pup’s initial boarding for 2 nights. We received updates via text as well as pictures of him playing in their large, very clean and spacious yard. When we picked up Bucky, we were speechless as to the significant change in him with less barking. Gabe and Austin shared with us some tools and tips to continue at home and we continue to do so. I have also emailed them with questions and Don and his team have been very responsive. We have already booked future stays with them and have added some training sessions on one of the boarding stays (yes! You can opt to add training sessions (and bath 😉) when using their boarding services). We look forward to having Bucky spend more time at CCC and working with Don and his team. Thank you Don and CCC team!

We signed up our dog, Milo, for the 14-Day Club Board & Train in April 2022. We wanted to wait about a month before we submitted a review so we could determine how well the things he learned during his stay actually stuck with him (in addition to us carrying on the training at home) and we couldn’t be happier with his progress! Milo is a 1.5 year-old sheepdog and can be very stubborn and we struggled with consistency and his follow through with our own training at home as well as his tantrums (i.e. running away from you and not wanting to listen or follow commands). Don and his team were able to lay such a good foundation with obedience skills. He listens soo much better, and we are now able to curb his random outbursts of energy and “tantrums” so much better. We’ve been able to take him off leash hiking and he has shown impressive progress with his recall and “touch” that Crafty Canine teaches and always sticks nearby. His barking and “rough” play have also improved immensely. Highly recommend Crafty Canine! They were so responsive during the 2 weeks, sent pictures every day, as well as provided short summaries of his progress. We will definitely be coming back for boarding weekends, we always feel like he’s in such good hands with Crafty Canine.
