We took our dogs to Kim and one of them came back with gushers on his head and neck, would not eat or drink, and was not acting like himself at all. We had to take our dog to the vet and he is now having to take antibiotics. Kim at The Dogs Spot was quite rude as always when I mentioned it to her and refused to give us partial refund. Definitely never doing business with her again.

My dog was not ill-behaved before she went to boot camp. She was just a normal puppy, but we wanted to start her off right. We did the 3 week in-kennel training and could not be happier. She listens and follows all of her commands. I get compliments on her behavior all the time! More than the basic obedience she came home with an over all calm about her. I saw a couple of reviews complaining about the cleanliness. I mean, its boarding and training for multiple dogs. They play with each other and have a great time. I've never seen 2 or more dogs run and play and not come back dirty! Come on people! I highly recommend Kim and her staff! They are professional and friendly. My dog has been boarded twice and is going again in a couple weeks. I won't worry a bit about her.

The Dog's Spot is awesome!!!! Mason graduated from his Bootcamp last week and he has come home a completely different dog. When I brought Mason to The Dog's Spot, he was completely out of control. He would jump on everyone and about pull my arm out of socket when I took him for a walk. I am amazed at how calm and responsive he is to the commands that were taught to him. He now walks directly beside me no matter what speed I am walking and I can even walk him without a leash. I highly recommend The Dogs Spot for all of your training needs. Thank You Kim and The Dogs Spot team for making my best friend a better house mate to live with.

My young doberman boarded here twice and we had bad experiences both times. His ears are cropped and almost standing but their posting method led to him develop pockets the first time he stayed. He also came home with an eye infection. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and boarded him again. I included the posting supplies with instructions to keep the ears taped constantly. When I dropped him off with his food, the owner lectured me on my choice of food saying that the protein content was too high. Obviously she had NO clue what she is talking about because the food I feed him is extremely high quality and has a LOWER protein content than most foods. It is well within the safe range for large breed puppies. used to work for a vet so I'm not stupid ;) When I went to pick up my dog, I was horrified to find his ears untaped and drooping. I was told he had a bath that morning so they had untaped them. My response was ok, so why not tape them back when he was done! His ears had been untaped all day which went against my wishes and also set us back again. His blanket was NASTY which tells me my dog was also before his bath. I will never go back.
