Pet Boarding Training near Stoughton

“The staff and accommodations are top notch! Nowhere else even compares. I moved over an hour away and when I travel I still bring my dog here!“

“Went to get a second opinion on a matter and was treated with such compassion and kindness. Dr. Watrud took the time to explain what was happening with our dog.“

“Our dog Duke is an amiable high energy 16 month young dog. The attendants have standards so at first Duke was put on probation until his behavior improved, which it did as he became familiar with what he now considers “his club!”. Simply put, Duke loves being there. Duke comes home contentedly exhausted. It’s like the dog park x10. He’s actually fallen asleep sitting up!

The more Duke goes there, the more he loves it. Pulls me hard to get in. At the end of the day wants to stay. He told me it’s his doggy heaven.“

“I feel so fortunate to have found such a clean and wonderful environment for my cats while I was on vacation. Christine seems to care very much for cats, and I was very comfortable leaving my two kitties with her. I love that the cats have individual rooms with windows and perches instead of cages, with plenty of room for them to love around. Thank you, Christine!“

“I have experience in dog rescue and am familiar with working with challenging dogs, but with my newest personal dog, I felt like her behaviors were escalating and I was starting to lose control and beginning not to trust her. After reaching out to a few trainers, I chose to work with John because of his calm and confident presence, his clear knowledge, and his use of positive reinforcement methods.

John didn’t just train my dog, he trained me as the owner. He gave me the tools, guidance, and confidence to continue the training. We realized that the more we practiced the techniques during the week, the more progress we saw. While training requires consistency and effort, John provided us with a strong foundation and realistic strategies that we’ll carry for a lifetime.

Even though I began training during an especially busy season of life, John’s approach was practical and supportive, and the impact has been invaluable. My relationship with my dog has improved, and I now feel confident in her capabilities. Friends who visit have already noticed positive changes in all of my dogs behavior.

I no longer feel “lost in the sauce.” I now feel equipped and empowered as a dog owner, with a clear direction and confidence in what my dog and I can accomplish together. John’s training has not only improved my dog’s behavior but has made me a better, more confident dog owner overall. I am so grateful for his guidance and highly recommend him to anyone looking for effective, compassionate, and lasting training.“

“We left Gracie there for ten days while we were on vacation. She had never been in a kennel as we've always had people keep her in their house. The staff reported that she did great. She has always been friendly with people and other dogs so I wasn't surprised. It's a great place to leave your pet and know they will be cared for.“

“We have been taking our dog here for years. But this last time they handled my situation amazingly our dog sitter fell through hours before we needed to leave the states. I called them and asked if I could drop him off for the week in the next 20 minutes And they responded to me with of course just bring him. He always yelps with excitement at drop off and comes home happy. We will not be taking him anywhere else as to we feel he is well taken care of by the staff and they are a reliable source. The staff is always sad to see him leave.“

“We cannot sing the praises of SGK, Sharon & Mike highly enough. We did a lot of research to find the best breeder for our first puppy. Our sweet girl from them is truly a dream puppy. We took advantage of the 5 week training program they offered & she is one of the most well behaved puppies we’ve ever interacted with. Her temperament is perfect (which is another testament to the breeding done at SGK) and the testing Mike & Sharon do to match you to your perfect puppy. Our girl is truly perfect for us. Her demeanor & personality are wonderful & she is curious about things that are unfamiliar and eager to learn. We cannot recommend SGK enough. If you’re looking for a golden retriever puppy, look no further. SGK is the best of the best & be prepared for the best puppy. It was an absolute pleasure engaging with them & we love our girl so much.“
