Frank charged me 3000 to have my dog
Frank charged me 3000 to have my dog be trained over a 3 week period with a trainer named Kristi Our dog came back worse Our dog is now super sketchy and aggressive He was not like this prior to his training At the end of our 3 week period Kristi called and said she wanted 3 more days because she was sick with a cough We said we wanted our dog back and declined the extra 3 days When our dog came home Kristi could not demonstrate what he had learned only told us what WE needed to do We believe our dog was abused I asked Frank the owner of Dawgz and Stripes to refund half our money and he promptly denied because of our contract Please please do not use this company Facilities looked ghetto as well Call me and I will tell you my experience 619-548-0973

I would give this place a zero if I
I would give this place a zero if I could My dog came back worse and looked sick We believe our dog was abused Nothing was taught nor could Kristi demonstrate anything he learned They use whatsapp to hide communication then delete the messages when it is too late so you won t have any evidence for court - then they flash the contract in front of you and the judge and so you have no recourse Today I received the following email from another client that had a terrible experience They lied several times and even provided false documents in court Everything from breach of contract to trying to care me off with false documents and animal abuse She Kristi Mallett slammed her knuckles on my dogs nose right in front of me and told me to knee him in his chest like I was punting a soccer ball across a field then got mad at me when I didn t want to She threw a full water bottle at the wall as hard as she could and during the hearing she held up her water bottle to the judge asking if she could demonstrate her water bottle technique The judge Samra let them win and I tried credit card chargebacks also which didn t go through and I showed the judge they unfortunately received all their payments and gave copies of that to the judge she let them win 1200 because of their false documents The judge in their county is not right either DO NOT USE - YOU HAVE BEEN WARNEDyou can call me 619-548-0973 - Grant

Kristi is a dog whisperer
I love Kristi and everything she s done for my pup Peanut and me Worth EVERY PENNY and I think EVERY owner who aren t professionals should put their puppy into this training program She even offers to pick up your pup and drop off I can be a lot and have high expectations so I was communicating a lot with her and was quite anxious However she exceeded my expectations This is my first puppy so I was pretty hardcore with training him but she helped me learn behavior is SO much more significant than tricks Old dogs can learn new tricks but changing their behavior is a different story Kristi speaks dog and translates for me She also was SOOO understanding of me and never made me feel bad for bombarding her with questions She d say I m just human having human emotions and I just feel so grateful I asked for a more customized program and oh man she delivered One my puppy no longer whines and taking him on walks he s just THE BEST Every puppy has their own personality and every owner often unknowingly reinforces certain behaviors She called me out on what I needed to improve in and it helped me so much She sent videos and checked in throughout the three weeks of training I ve been teaching my puppy to be scared and insecure Through Kristi s training and guidance I ve helped my puppy build more confidence and she is still available as a resource even when my pup came back Highly recommend Thanks so much Kristi

Over the years I have had the distinct
Over the years I have had the distinct pleasure of working with many great professionals in the working dog world However Frank is one of the absolute best professionals behavioralists I ve been able to work with He really knows dog psychology is proactive in his approach in working with troubled dogs I absolutely love the fact that he takes the time to discover why the dog is behaving the way it is Rather than the quick fix shock bark collar methods He believes without truly understanding the dog behaviors its tied previous life experiences there s no authentic way of resolving the present behavior He truly is a class act He s not only about the dog but also the person family as well I highly recommend their training

Dawgznstripes did wonders for our
Dawgznstripes did wonders for our energetic goldendoodle went from a mouthy excitable and behavior problem puppy to a well-behaved dog with confidence Kristi taught us how to bring out the best in our dog We had no idea how much potential he had As owners we were taught how to solve behavior problems by breaking down training into mini-steps Our dog absolutely loved the boarding classes and we re not sure who learned more he or us
