The Upward Dog - Training, Boarding & Adventures

Zoe is one of the best things to happen to our family! I have to spell her name if we mention her in the house, because if our dog hears her name said outloud, she thinks Zoe is at the door and ready to take her on an adventure. The weekly adventures our dog goes on with Zoe and the other dogs are INCREDIBLE. Zoe is AMAZING with every single dog - big, small, shy, outgoing. Doesn't matter - she knows just what to do to get them to interact and enjoy the experience. Do NOT hesitate to use this wonderful dog specialist!

If you and your dog(s) need help, stop reading this and contact Zoe right now, because she is that good. We have a 120 pound Bernese Mountain Dog who was extremely excitable around other dogs - we couldn't take him where there were any other dogs. If we saw other dogs we would have to walk the other way or get in the car and leave. Sound familiar? Stop reading and call Zoe right now. Notice I wrote he 'was' excitable, not 'is' excitable? That's because we've been working with Zoe and have seen amazing progress. Not only with our pup, but how we interact with him when training. The situation is so improved that we take him everywhere - and I mean everywhere - we even walked in a pet parade with him! Our friends have even noticed and commented on his improved behavior and asked who the miracle work was. That's easy - it was Zoe.

We love Zoe. One of our Golden Retrievers has special needs and has daily medication while our other is outgoing and most friendly. When we took a trip we left them both with Zoe. She sends daily pictures and updates so we know our babies our happy and safe. They both came home well mannered with smiles on their faces. They both have really enjoyed playdates with Zoe and her dogs as well. This is especially true for our special needs girl. Zoe has great fenced spaces for them to run, play, and learn. They come home happy and tired!

She's awesome and my dogs love her. When I went back to work full time, after only working part-time for the last couple years after being out on medical I was unsure who to entrust with my beloved rescues, I have to bully breeds/ potties and she is very knowledgeable and those breeds as well as any free that I can see very experienced she was exactly what we needed she love my animals as if they were her own unfortunately since I'm only working part-time now I resumed the Roll But when I go back full time working I will definitely be calling her back she has a Stern hand and voice which is exactly what my dog's needed but unconditional love and she knew exactly wet my younger male pity needed and how to address his behaviors and didn't hesitate to work with me and my children and advise us some things that we need to do as well as show us and worked with Jack's training him and behavior modification and stuff as well as exercising him she's the best!!
