Pet Boarding Training near Grass Valley

“Before taking our dog to Top Dog, his on-leash skills were severely lacking, to the point where it was a struggle to walk him anywhere where there might be other dogs. After just the first few sessions we started seeing a big improvement and our pup seemed relieved to have clear instructions of what was expected of him. We just started the second level class and the little dude is learning all kinds of awesome skills to the point where we now get compliments on his behavior when we're out and about. He really seems to enjoy the classes too. Lori is a true dog lover, perfect patience and training vibes, and super humane and ethical approach. Highly recommend Top Dog to anyone looking to invest in their pet's wellbeing and have some fun with them.“

“The Kennels are our go to for boarding our two dogs. The accommodations, the customized care and the friendly staff leave us feeling calm and secure that our pups are in good hands while we travel. The extras like play yard time and long walks make it an easy choice on where we board. We can’t recommend The Kennels enough!“

“Lily loves her daycare time! She can’t wait to get out of the car and see her puppy friends.“

“We adopted our one-year-old rescue lab, Duncan, about two years ago. He was very friendly, strong and very “active”. We decided to get some professional help and interviewed several trainers in the area. Susanna quickly rose to the top based on her attitude, personality and credentials.

We started with a few private lessons then transitioned to her group classes. Susanna’s classes are well planned, safe, and appropriate for all types of dog personalities. Duncan quickly progressed through her AKC Good Citizen basic and advanced classes and loves to demonstrate his new skills.

Duncan enjoys his weekly day at their “Dog Day Camp” and comes home very happy and tired! He also has enjoyed his stays when he has been boarded with The Canine Coach and again comes home a happy camper.

Recently Duncan went through a background check, observation and testing regimen with the national Alliance of Therapy Dogs (ATD) and is now a credentialed Therapy Dog. He will soon be visiting medical facilities, schools, first responder facilities and the court house. This honor is due largely to Duncan’s ongoing relationship with The Canine Coach.

While there are a number of canine services in the area, you won’t do better than The Canine Coach.“

“Recently had to put my kitty to sleep due to a heart problem. Dr. Fossum and Shelby Nunnick were so caring during this particularly emotional time. Thank you.“
