Guardian-K9 Reviews

They don't accept dogs that haven't been neutered.
Is a dog not eligible to use a hotel without neutering?
I'm using another place in Hope.
They are way better.

Our dog has been a 2-3 time a week regular and has had training there as well. Picked her up today and she was limping badly and wouldn t set her front left paw on the ground. When the manager was walking her out to me I immediately noticed the limp but the caregivers didn t. After pointing it out to the surprised manager, off to the vet we went. On the way, I called the manager at Guardian K9 and asked her to ask the staff if they saw anything. She said our dog spent most of the day lying by herself in the corner and having a chill day. I pointed out that would be alarming considering the high energy level of our boxer. Why didn t they call us I asked and why did her report card say how high our dog s energy level was today (The staff consistently tells us how much she plays and how active she is). The veterinarian and staff, who have seen our dog a lot less than the Guardian K9 staff, were concerned with the limp and lack of energy. I told the vet Guardian K9 said our dog had a chill day and he said that s not her. Our dog s shoulder is injured and she had two shots plus we have to medicate and monitor her for a week and hope for recovery. If she doesn t improve dramatically then further procedures will follow. After thanking the vet for seeing us so quickly, I called Guardian K9 and asked for the manager. I relayed my disappointment in our dog s care and again asked how they didn t notice anything. She said our dog didn t limp until she got to the lobby but I told her I saw her limping the entire way to the lobby. How didn t the manager not notice? The story changed a bit and now our dog played really hard, got tired, and then chilled. I pointed out the change in story but was told I had misunderstood. No way, our dog was being properly looked after and the thought of her hurting in a corner upsets me. I thanked the manager and told her our dog wouldn t return to their facility again and she apologized. Things happen and dog s get hurt I get it. However, our dog was with Guardian K9 for 6 hours today and their entire staff failed to notice a limp and odd behavior as our energetic dog sat in a corner alone.

Got my husky trained here a few years ago, they have a very excellent way with their methods. They love being with dogs and i woukd recommend them 100%.

My dog absolutely loves the staff & facility. It is his favorite place to go. The staff are professional, friendly, caring, & knowledgeable.

My dog spent 2 weeks with Guardian K9 at their lodge and learn program. When my husband and I came to pick him up, he was clearly experiencing pain on his neck and had to go right to the vet. Our dog had inflamed moist dermatitis that clearly was left to fester. For the $600 we spent on training you would expect that someone would have noticed our dog was in pain. Irresponsible.

Guardian K9 is the only place we trust to board our Belgian malinois, they understand working dog breeds and really are fantastic with even our Loki.

Very friendly staff that knows what they are doing and treat your dog like it is their own!

Best day care for pups! They get lots of attention and come home tired!!

Love the training here. They are amazing and have been a tremendous help with our heeler puppy.

They helped me a lot with my dog with just one free consultation.

Any and all dogs would love spending their day here.

Best place in Columbus for your pet, they really care!

Very good place for training and also a stay and play. Highly recommended. Very knowledgeable about all breeds and what it takes to train them correctly.

Very satisfied, love to have our dogs socialize in open play. They were very tired after a day at doggie daycare, exact what we were hoping for.

Emma, our pitbull has been going here for well over a year and she loves it!!! She gets so excited when she sees where she's going. The girls there are just wonderful with her. They have "pawtys" several times a year. Its just a great place to take your best friend

Today was our second private session with Madison and my dog Buck who is 11 months and we are already seeing an improvement! She really understands canine behavior and how dogs think. Bringing Buck to Guardian is probably the best thing I ve ever done for him! He s a great dog but he is young and needs a lot of stimulation or he will act out. I can t wait to take him to playcare!

Only had 2 phone conversations we go this week for consultation. They were friendly over phone and did not rush me. I'm looking forward to Gauge getting into obedience school there. M

Excellent facilities. I was extremely impressed with Sean Pendleton's professionalism and knowledge.

My daughter's two pups are completely worn out when they come home. Yay!
