Ridgeside K9 Knoxville

I was extremely skeptical about leaving my dog with anyone, but after hearing how much training helped my coworker’s dog, I became curious whether it could make a difference for my sweet Abby. From my very first call with K9 Ridgeside, everything was explained clearly what the process would look like and what I could realistically expect. My hesitation came from a very real place. Abby had been abused before I rescued her, and she would growl at anyone who came near her. It got so bad that I couldn’t even have her groomed properly. Abby isn’t just my pet, she’s my support animal. I struggle with severe anxiety, and having a dog who was also scared made things even harder for both of us. Eventually, I decided she deserved the chance to get the help she needed, and I chose K9 Ridgeside. After just six weeks of training, Abby made a complete transformation. She stopped growling at people, she’s noticeably happier, and in turn, she has helped ease my own anxiety. The trainer was incredibly understanding of both my fears about leaving her and Abby’s past trauma. He made sure we were both comfortable every step of the way. Abby left their facility wagging her tail, relaxed, and genuinely happy. The place is clean, professional, and it’s obvious they truly love animals. I couldn’t be more grateful for K9 Ridgeside and Abby’s trainer. They gave my girl confidence again and gave me peace of mind.

My dog went there to get groomed. When I came to pick him up, nail was bleeding and he was shaking like he was traumatized. I don’t know what happened, but I asked the owner. Why is my dog acting like this? He’s never acted like this before in his life. “It was almost like my dog was beaten for an hour and a half while he was getting groomed.” I’ll never go to this facility ever again.
