Our girls scouts came here to see what they do with their dogs. These dogs are trained so well and the staff is so kind and caring. I learned things I never knew

I'm not sure who is running things now, but this agency is not the same. They no longer care about the needs of their clients or the dogs. It is simply about the money! If I could give it zero stars, I would. I miss the old people who ran things who actually cared and made the dogs amazing!
