Santa Monica Kennels and Boarding
- They got very expensive dog training programs. By paying about $3000 or more for a 6 weeks program, you may think that your dog would be trained well and not do any house breaking. The truth is, my dog only know how to sit, come, recognize NO. These are basic commands that I bet EVERYONE can train their own dogs easily. My dog came back worse than before. He would pee very little and not poo at all when we bring him out for a walk. Even I walk him every 3 hrs, my dog still poo and pee in the house near but not ON the wee wee pad. I don't expect to have to walk my dog continuously after the training program! Even worse, he would bite and break the wee wee pad, bite through the wall. Well, Santa Monica Kennels' suggestion after the training is to put your dog in a crate. Wow, so I paid $3000 for training my dog to be put in a crate so then he won't do any house breaking! I see no point of training my dog at Santa Monica Kennels at all. Their customer service after the training may be terrible. No matter what a customer says, I don't think employees at Santa Monica Kennels should yell or scream at you, which one of them did to me. The worst service I have ever experienced.

Everyone I talk to likes Tiffany of Santa Monica Dog Walkers. She calls back right away, which is good. It's only her, which is also good, and she doesn't have that many clients, so my doggies often get extra time. Her email is Santamonicadogwalkers@yahoo.com.

Im sad to say that I agree with the original poster. I paid $5000 to have my two dogs trained. Specifically I sent them in to learn the "no" command which the trainer assured me would take care of their barking. I was very specific about this being the main problem.
A month later I got my dogs back and all they had learned was how to sit....and only when they were on the leash. I was told I could bring them back for re-training, which I did. When I got them back there was still no change and all the trainer said was "Well, some dogs are more stubborn then others". Dont use them - honestly. Its a year later and Im still upset over how much money I wasted. |

I used Santa Monica Kennels to train my (2) dogs. I was extremely happy w/their training, so much so that I have referred several friends. One of whom has her dogs in training w/them now & she is as equally satisfied as I am. I will encourage her to post on this site. I wanted to respond to the person whom posted the not so nice review on Nov 2. As far as Potty training. It frustrates me when people expect their dogs to hold it for hours & hours.Your animal is a living breathing thing. Do you go a 8, 10, 12 hour work day & not relieve yourself? Are you following the guidelines given to you w/your training? It is the owners responsibility to work w/your dog everyday. And if you read your contract Potty
training/housebreaking is not guaranteed, why should it be-each dog is different. It also states on your contract that if you are having problems to call them & they will help you w/your needs. Have you called them & asked for help? I can personally state that if you follow the training guidelines given to you when your dog graduates then you won't have a problem. I am delighted w/the training my dogs rcvd & will continue to recommend them highly to others. I've also used their boarding facility. It is a boutique experience that provides individual attention to your dog. They are continuously walked & even get play times. The staff is loving & caring & does a excellent job in giving them each extra attention. They have only been acommodating to me & my dogs needs. My dogs are always happy to arrive & happy when I pick them up. Everything is incld in their stay. They provide bedding, toys, treats, & food but you are also free to bring your own. They even get a complementary Spa day upon pick up (bath, blowdrying, brushing, ear cleaning, & nail clipping). They use only the best food-Canidae. A holistic, human grade all natural food. I suggust calling ahead & making reservations as they are very popular. Visit their website @ santamonicakennels.com Its a great place!!!!! |
