I took my dog here for grooming. His hair is fine, his nails are a little jagged but I can overlook that. However, on their website they said the dogs won’t be kenneled for a second longer than necessary and on the phone I was told my dog wouldn’t be kenneled for more than 15 minutes. He was kenneled for an hour or more. He’s an anxious dog in the kennel, so it upsets me deeply that he was kenneled for that long especially when I was told he wouldn’t be. I told them over the phone when I made the appointment that he has anxiety in the kennel. The overall process took about 4 hours. I was told it would take 2-2.5 hours. He was extremely thirsty when we got home, so I’m wondering if they provided him with water when he was kenneled. I will not be going back. This whole situation caused my dog and I so much stress.

Very helpful! I had taken in a dog that was already 3 and hadn't been worked with. It is a little harder to train an older dog rather than from puppy stage. The classes were super helpful for me, taught me what I was doing wrong. So Follow Our Lead is a part of this girls rescue/success story....from being dumped and starving to thriving ! Meet juniper.

Emily is absolutely amazing!! I had a dog show up on my doorstep that apparently had not had much human interaction. I took her to Follow My Lead obedience training with Emily & she did amazing things with her. I would recommend this place & Emily to anyone that wants help training their dog. They are awesome

I'd argue that this is the best dog trainer in the state. Cayla was incredible. Our 4-year old, rescue is so well mannered. We take her to the park regularly and with her training has never needed a leash. She listens well, and is wonderful with our son. Before training, Biscuit was temperamental with children. She has no issues at all now. I can't recommend Follow Our Lead enough. Thank you for believing in our girl as much as we do.

I highly recommend Follow Our Lead! We have seen such a huge improvement in our German Shorthaired Pointer puppy after completing the basic obedience course. Cayla was amazing to work with. She was very kind, patient, and knowledgeable. We plan on bringing our puppy back for advanced training in the future. You won’t regret going to Follow Our Lead!
