Frequently Asked Questions

The short answer is NO! Dogs are great & we can train them to do a multitude of tasks. However, at the end of the day, dogs do not have the brain matter human beings possess. You cannot reason with a dog. You cannot have a conversation with a dog. Dogs do not think or ponder. They do however respond, often to trained commands, shaped or learned behaviors, or in certain situations they will respond instinctually. In short, your dog does not have the intellect or ability to sit around thinking: “Man, I wish I was back home living the high life." Lastly, a dog’s primary sense is neither sight nor hearing. In other words, they use their nose far more than their eyes & ears. A dog will never forget an owner's scent, the familiar smell of a neighborhood, or house. They are always excited to come home from training.  

First & foremost, you as our client & owner of the dog will be notified immediately. Health & Safety is of our utmost concern. We treat each & every dog as if it were our own. Our facility is cleaned & disinfected daily. Our trainer has worked as a Vet Technician at one of Charlotte’s most demanding Animal Hospitals. In short, we have seen it all. We are trained professionally in identifying medical issues before they arise. As always, should your dog need immediate treatment, the dog will be treated without hesitation at either Miller Animal Hospital or one of Charlotte’s local 24-hour clinics (C.A.R.E. or Carolina Veterinary Specialists).
