Dobermans are very energetic, loyal, loving dogs. I knew this because I spent time researching the breed and selecting a breeder. What I didn't know was my "training" of them was exactly the opposite training that they needed! When I decided to bring a second Doberman into my house, I thought, " this time the dog will be better, I know more now". Well, again, another mistake. I tried many trainers in the area and nothing helped my 1-year-old Bella. I was going out of mind everyday, that is until Melissa and Positive K-9. She stayed at Creekside resort for training with Melissa for 2 weeks. Before training Bella ran our household. I never thought I would be the type of person to consider putting a dog up for adoption, but I was running out of hope. Melissa changed all of that. She not only taught Bella her place "in our pack" she also spent time teaching us our "place" as the "pack leaders". Bella is not a new dog-she is just a better member of the family. Melissa has been great after her training as well, answering questions and seeing us for our follow-up lessons. She has helped us ensure Bella's success. Along with Bella's amazing training- we also had a few lessons with our dog Jack. He needed what I would call "refresher training". Melissa trained Jack and us on an e-collar. It was an immediate improvement-IMMEDIATE! Jack listened and in turn Jack was awarded the freedom that dogs so desperately need and deserve. The collar is a lifesaver and Jack is getting so great at listening he won't need to wear it much longer. Now we can go to the park, let our dogs be dogs, and not have to panic every minute of the day that our dogs might not listen and have an accident. We are so much happier and Jack and Bella are now too-they get to run, play, jump, swim, and be happy dogs! I can't say enough about Melissa, Rob, and the staff at Creekside. Don't waste money on group classes like we did-come here and get the personal attention you and your dog need!
Pros: personal service, caring, professional, dogs get A TON of activity!
Cons: have to book in advance because there is such a demand for training/boarding
