Puppies will be puppies, but when I got an adorable teacup Maltese for Christmas, I had no idea what I was in store for.
Moxie is my sweet little girl however, I had no idea how much time and attention it took to train and housebreak a puppy (as I haven't had a true puppy since I was very young.) My husband and I were close to then end of our rope when we happened upon Penny at the CyFair Home and Garden Show. Gabe, her Blue Heeler, first got our attention and then we began bragging about our animals. My husband mentioned the housebreaking issue and Penny didn't hesitate in offering suggestions. When we told her that we had tried everything but that we simply couldn't offer the structure and consistency Moxie needed, Penny told us about Puppy Preschool. Moxie was enrolled six days later.
At the consultation, I carefully observed how the staff interacted with the dogs, and how the parents reacted to, well, everything. I immediately noticed that all the employees clearly loved their job, cared for the dogs, and respected the parents. The dogs were happy, clean, and well-attended.
Of course when I dropped my baby off, I was a blubbering mess however; when I visited her four days later, she was well-adjusted and happy. That made all the difference to me, knowing that Moxie was happy and safe.
I highly recommend Penny and Barks 5th Avenue. There is no doubt that I would do the three week training all over again, but I won't have to because Moxie is a completely different dog.
She will now begin daycare on Monday and I know she will love it!
Thank you so much for helping us to communicate better with our precious Moxie!
Pros: Location, price, attention to animals
Cons: could find no cons
