I didn't get the job with them when I interviewed. I'm glad i didn't I heard a lot of bad things about that place.

Just wanted to thank-you for taking care of Blue while my wife and I went to visit our grand-child and her parents. I found your staff customer-oriented and professional. As you know Blue is a Belgian Malinois and I took comfort in leaving him with staff trained and experienced in working with a high drive working dog like Blue. I appreciate Garrett spending time with Blue and found his assessment spot-on. I also took comfort in leaving Blue at a boarding facility that is set-up to for the dogs to have a positive, physically, and mentally stimulating stay - and not just provide boarding services. Thank-you again for taking care of Blue! I recommend Top Dog Training and Resort.

I was referred to Top Dog by a friend last year when I adopted a high-medical needs dog. My dog absolutely loved day school, and the staff at Top Dog took excellent care of him - from administering his medications to making sure he was safe. After his passing, I adopted another dog and brought him to Top Dog. We are also learning that he be prone to seizures, and the staff at Top Dog have been absolutely wonderful. The owner kept a close eye on our dog until we we able to pick him up after he had one recently. I feel completely comfortable with Top Dog, and highly recommend them for day school and boarding. See below for photos of very happy dogs!

My dog did great at Top Dog. He was in training for 3 weeks. I missed him but the staff was spot on in taking care of him. He learned so much and always loves going to stay at the day school as well. The staff always answered any questions I had with such a good attitude. The trainers love these dogs. How can I tell, I always observed and they were always friendly to the dogs. The staff play and engage with them all. I was so lucky to find them and they were good to my dog. With a success in the training Bentley got he is a much better dog! Thank you to all the trainers and staff, they work very hard!! Sandra Smith

My very attached 7 yrs terrier has gained confidence, better behaviors(leashwise, listening), most of all loves being "at Day School"! Staff are exceptional.
