When I first started bringing my dog to day care, I spend quite a bit of time researching the various facilities around the west side. Nobody impressed me like Schroeder's Den did. Just a few moments of conversation with the owners reveals their passion for dogs, and their deep understanding of dog psychology and behavior. They truly strive to provide their doggy customers with the most comfortable, safe, supportive, and satisfying environment possible. They take the time to get to know all the dogs like family, and have a genuine interest in their well being. My dogs love it there, and I feel good leaving them there because I know they are in great hands. view short comment

Her dog was having anxiety related issues and we wanted to show her the collar to see how she felt about trying it for a behavior related to her anxiety. The collar was never used on her dog. We brought out the collar to be sure she had no objections to the use of it (Citronella collars spritz a little citronella spray, they do not shock). This client chose to complain publicly rather than just opt out of our use of it. She clearly misunderstood our explanation to her. It's possible we assumed too much that she knew what a citronella collar is. view short comment

WILL USE A SHOCK COLLAR ON YOUR PET! -- I believe strongly in positive dog training and thought I had found a place that shared my philosophy based on my conversation with the owner and their website that states they have "a commitment of establishing and building a relationship of honesty and trust with each of our customers".

WILL USE A SHOCK COLLAR ON YOUR PET! -- I believe strongly in positive dog training and thought I had found a place that shared my philosophy based on my conversation with the owner and their website that states they have "a commitment of establishing and building a relationship of honesty and trust with each of our customers". Imagine my surprise when I picked up my dog from daycare, and after being told it had been an uneventful day, found her still wearing a shock collar! I did not take my family pet in to be abused view short comment
