| - I was hesitant to write this review, lest Tail Blazers falls the way of my esthetician - they get so much business they don't have time for me anymore :(
But really, this is a secret I just can't keep any longer. Tail Blazers is the BEST dog service I have ever encountered, bar none. The dog park gossip put me onto Yvette at Tail Blazers almost a year ago, and I haven't looked back since.
Yvette came to our house to meet us, our dog, see our space, and learn about his behaviour, personality and needs. From there, she did a few exercises with him in obedience to see where he would fit in her walk groups.
She has the incredible power to make any dog feel at ease...a special gift since my little guy can definitely be a little skittish. On his first walk she sent me numerous pictures right to my inbox, and left a very detailed explanation on how it went. Phew! Its always hard to trust someone new with your pet, and Yvette is nothing but professional.
I have also seen her in action around the neighbourhood, and it is amazing the control she has over the dogs. Its not a free-for-all, and the dogs are all expected to behave when they are with her...which is great for reinforcing behaviour, even when you're not at home!
If she is going away, she will work with you to place your dog with one of her trusted trainees, or find an alternative solution. And she provides WEEKS of notice in advance.
Also, she is really cool, funny and outgoing. Basically, the total package!
