Our 6 month old puppy, Peaches, took part in the 2 week board and train program over the holidays. It was an incredible experience! The staff was friendly and attentive -- they provided bi-weekly updates and photos of Peaches and his training. They also spent ~2 hours with us explaining the methodology, answering questions, and practicing the commands with our puppy. The facility is top notch -- not only is it clean and spacious, but it also provides a realistic environment that the dog would experience at home/in everyday living (e.g., a fake apartment with a bed, couch, kitchen, etc.). We would definitely take him back there for additional training!
Great experience with Ali and the team at Nashville K-9! Our puppy, Mabel, really benefited from the two week training program. The team was very communicative throughout the process and the training session at the end of the program was so helpful.
Our 4 month old puppy went to stay for a 3 week board and train while we were out of the country. We had the best possible experience with Nashville k-9- we knew that our girl, Chef, was safe and well cared for. The updates, pictures and touch points made us feel so much better as new pup parents who had a *very* hard time dropping off our fur baby. Not only did we know Chef was safe and being doted on, she also came back to us as a new dog in terms of training. The plan they put together for re-entry into our home has made a 180 difference in our day to day. The consistent communication and clear priorities of how to make the best training choices for chef have made a world of a difference. We will continue to use Nashville k-9 for any time we need boarding and a training tune up! Thank you to Ali, Raine, and the whole team!
Wow!!! Nashville K-9 is absolutely a 5-Star hotel/training facility for our beloved pets. Our Molly was a rescue; and we knew nothing about her past. We did not know how to begin to train her. Ali and his staff spent two weeks teaching Molly much needed doggie manners; and then they spent a morning teaching us how to continue the training at home. Throughout Molly’s stay, we received pictures of her in training which helped us. We were like parents who had sent their child off to camp for the first time. Also, we received an added bonus of videos to help us teach Molly new skills. We were extremely impressed with the facility. I said it was like a 5 Star hotel; but I would actually give it 10 plus stars. When you enter the lobby, you instantly know this is a special place. You will not find a cleaner facility for your fur baby; nor will you find a more caring staff. Nashville K-9 is absolutely wonderful in so many way.
Ali and his team are beyond professional! Our pup came home well adjusted, happy and behaved much better! Plus, we learned so much and now training him is actually fun, not frustrating. We did the four week board and train. I can’t recommend this investment enough. It makes for happier dogs and happier owners. Plus, throughout the process the team keeps you informed and sends awesome photos! Thank you Nashville K9!
