“It almost feels pointless to leave yet another well-deserved 5 star review for Travis and T.C. Canines, but maybe our needs were the same as someone who is reading these reviews.We have an extremely well-bred and intelligent Boxer puppy from one of the best breeders in the country. The problem with an extremely intelligent and well-bred puppy is that he answers to no one. He is the most amazing puppy - friendly, smart, loyal - but he is well aware of his awesomeness and takes direction from absolutely no one. Except Travis. And now us. Travis, all the time. Us? Most of the time. I was extremely skeptical about what Travis would be able to do in 6 days, and in fact, I tried to get him in for the 2 week advanced training. Travis said that wasn't necessary.Travis was right. When Otis came back, he was a completely different dog. My partner was worried he wouldn't be the same, which turned out to be true. He was a lot better, mostly because he was a lot more calm and secure with rules he understood instead of us yelling "No!" all the time. Otis was far from perfect, but 1,000% better behaved. However, we have dropped the ball because we haven't followed through with our part of the continuing training which Travis set out for us, and which Travis explained at length was necessary to reinforce and make permanent the training that Otis started at T.C. Canines.I was reminded to leave this long overdue review when I sat down tonight to arrange private lessons with Travis to "repair" the setbacks we have caused by not doing our part, and also to work on a couple other minor issues that have come up as Otis has gotten older.If anyone reading this has any doubts about whether T.C. Canines is the right place for your best friend, I'll finish by saying that what Travis charges is ridiculously reasonable. The amazing results are priceless.“

“We did an eval for boarding for our dogs today and they loved it! Our high strung dog was so tired that he was trying to go to sleep in the car and he never does that (especially on a ten minute car ride).“

“In general, everyone at the Chesapeake Acredale office is very friendly and extremely helpful. I can easily walk in and request maintenance medications without feeling like I am intruding. They are also responsive to any requests I may have regarding my dog.“

“I've been using Citizen K9 for my Xmas puppy's development. He stays there once a week and the experience has been lovely. My puppy gets wonderful training that translates well to his manners at home. He also gets socialization and puppy playtime. I've seen such a vast improvement in his demeanor becuase of this. My puppy even became less skitish around big dogs which was a concern I had early on. I get a report card from his stay as well as videos and photos of his day. It's a beautiful added touch. I trust Citizen K9 and intend to use them as long as I am in Norfolk.“

“They were able to cut our dogs nails. Our vet, even with the dogs sedated was unable to do it. The staff at Rub a Dub are great and really love their jobs and their "pet clients"! Highly recommend!!“

“So patient with my very sick and scared pit bull. Dr Jones was more than understanding and took it very slow with my Iris girl. I just moved from the Newport News area and was in need of a new vet and more urgent due to some sudden growths that developed. Dr Jones and all of the staff have been so compassionate with me and my pibble“

“The staff makes us feel like our dog is their most important client. Our puppy loves to go to "school" while I am working. The facility is clean and well staffed. Drop off in the morning is a bit hectic, but everyone maintains a positive attitude.“
