I didn't get the job with them when I interviewed. I'm glad i didn't I heard a lot of bad things about that place.

We are world travelers. We dread leaving our devoted companion. But we ask. How about exercise? Cory now is a geriatric resident . While he's won ribbons in obedience and agility, he suffers hearing loss. What keeps him fit then? A cage? Absolutely not. Top Dog understands aging in dogs. Through the years? Toop Dog understands. And yes, he gets his teeth brushed once/day. Never any gingivitis,"dog breath". healthy pink "gums", no plaque, tartar. Top dog brushes his teeth and exclaim how much he dives into it. So there you go. His breeder, also a judge, dreams: "I wish I could stay there!" Her dogs' lines have international obedience, conformation & agility ribbons. My dog has some. But now Cory is aged. But not to the point of injury. Upon the first day of boarding, he still enters the door with enthusiasm. Yes, he's very excited to return home. Often wiggles like a puppy. But he loves his Top Dog specialists in his geriatric years, we *hate* to leave him. But with Top Dog,'s "report card's" that helps. We look forward to them, P.S. Mind you he's a sheltie with a **massive** coat inherited from his parents, both grand champions in confirmation. Top Dog brushes him regularly and if they didn't', we'd know with that coat! , Case Closed. Top 'dog is the greatest,
Our first day at Top Dog was a great success signing up our puppy for day camp. The team was very communicative and our puppy was well taken care of. He came home very happy and exhausted! Great company and I will definitely be bringing my dog back to Top Dog.
My dog Macy LOVES it at Top Dog. She is shy and they have been so good about helping her become accustomed to other dogs. The people are so friendly and they always follow up on questions. We also did the 6 week training with Danielle. Unbelievable success. I highly recommend Top Dog.
