Cooper is always in heaven when I drop him off at Wonderdogs. He loves it there. He has so much energy and when it’s time for pick up, he is so quiet in the car ride home. Ben’s team are great with the dogs, always so happy and comfortable. I feel secure knowing my Cooper is well taken care of and trained to be a good pup to other pups.

Wonderdogs is amazing. Ben Kersen, the owner is a dog trainer so sometimes there is incidental training going on. The dogs all have a little nap at some point and on rainy days there is a large indoor area. My little dog has been going to Wonderdogs for about 7 years and she is always happy to go. I feel extremely comfortable leaving her there. Ben is usually available to give the odd training tip as well.

In the several months that my 16-month-old Bernadoodle has been at Wonderdogs, the changes in his behavior have really been something. He is a large, loving, but (was an) overly enthusiastic 90lb bundle of unrestrained joy and enthusiasm. Going to Wonderdogs each morning quickly became his obviously favorite thing to do, and he would sing on the drive there.
The owner and staff have been exceptional in the care they provide, and Billy’s response to them is visible proof of that. But, more than his pure delight in going there to play with his new, and carefully vetted pack, the changes in his behavior have been unexpected and wonderful. Almost right away his behavior started improving. His manners, both around other dogs and humans, have been refined a great deal with the training he is receiving there. He is respectful of dogs that we meet on walks, even if they don’t wish to play, and the same with humans. Jumping up in excitement is a thing of the past. He is much more controlled, manageable and enjoyable on walks, not just for me, but other humans (smaller than l) in his pack that walk him…now without hesitation. He is even happier than before, and so is my family. Wonder Dogs is the best decision I have made since getting this large bundle of joy.
