For awhile, we weren't sure where to go - one of these big dog emporium places, or something more smaller scale? We are so glad we went with Nicky. She is so great with our dog, Paddington, and has taught him so much (and us so much too!)! She gives him a lot of 1:1 attention and under her care and guidance he has become so well behaved and socialized! Nicky is extremely reliable, picks up and drops off our pup at home, and he is always super tired when he gets back! Nicky is super knowledgeable about so much and we feel so lucky to have her taking care of our pup! And I also want to point out that she's one of these rare souls who just GETS dogs. It is truly remarkable. Thank you, Nicky!!!
