Do you all have a chow and husky breed
We are a training, boarding, and dog gym facility. We do not breed dogs.

I can’t say enough good things about this training program. The results with my dog, Max, have honestly exceeded anything I thought was possible.
Just yesterday, he held a down-stay for three hours while I recorded a podcast. Later that day, we came across a large boxer off leash—something that would’ve been stressful before—but Max stayed perfectly in a down-stay while I calmly handled the situation. His focus and discipline were incredible.
This training has completely changed what I thought he was capable of. Highly recommend to anyone looking for real, reliable results.

When dropped off our newly adopted (we had him home for 1 full day) 11 month old golden doodle to Mill Pond Kennels he was scared, unsure, and didn’t have very good manors. Four weeks later we picked up our boy who gained confidence, knowledge, and obedience! I will never have a dog who isn’t trained by them. Communication is wonderful during and even after training for any lingering questions or uncertainty you may have! Charlie and I give this business 5 stars. ❤️

Great staff and great training! I just got back home from pick up and do have to say that i can tell a big difference in my pup. He is still his sweet self with more confidence and obedience. I know we still have our homework to do but i honestly couldn't wait to leave a review. I personally am looking forward to bringing Peanut back for other learning opportunities and visits. I live about 45/50 minutes away and it is absolutely worth the drive. Thank you Mill Pond Kennels for all the amazing work and dedication, i sincerely appreciate all you have done for Peanut and I.

I cannot say enough good things about the trainers and staff at MPK!! I rescued a young dog that only knew his name, seemed to be reactive with other dogs, and a host of other things that were very different from what I was told. I was, frankly, very overwhelmed, completely unprepared, and felt that returning him to his previous owner was not an option for his own safety. Based on the glowing reviews, I reached out to MPK practically begging them for help. THEY WERE AMAZING. They got my doggo in right away and understood that his background, while unknown, was clearly not good. One month later and this is a completely different dog. He is happy, healthy, confident, and seems to understand that he is now a spoiled pet deserving of all the love in the world. I attribute this 180 turnaround to these wonderful people. They understand that not all dogs are the same and thus can't be treated the same, and this is very apparent on the weekly video updates. It was amazing watching my dog go from timid, anxious, and overly submissive to happy, confident, and playful over just a few weeks. I should probably also mention the basics: the facility is spotless and smells good, they did a great job giving him his several medications, dog potty spaces are separate to prevent any parasite transmission, etc. All in all, I wouldn't hesitate to bring another pet here in the future and absolutely intend to board him there if/when the need arises. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Mill Pond! We are so very grateful for your help and guidance!
