EXCELLENT Based on 41 reviews Posted on Jennifer AbernathyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I now have my second dog in training with Chris and Pinnacle K-9. The facility is always clean and the people that work there are professional and care about the animals. He knows Dogs! And did a fantastic job with our first Belgium Malinois. I can take him anywhere! Working with him again on our second dog and am very pleased with the progress! I learn so much from him! I highly recommend him for training!Posted on Wendy HTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We love Pinnacle K9! It is our go-to kennel because they consistently take excellent care of our dogs. The only “problem” is that the dogs enjoy it so much they don’t want to come back home after their days at K9 😉. Highly recommend, and wish we could give more than 5 stars. I don’t usually write reviews, but K9 is so good that I had to take the time to let others know what a jewel they are! If you haven’t tried them, your dogs are missing out. It is clear that every employee is a true dog lover, and they’re great with people, too.Posted on Alfredo PalaciosTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've taken my dog here for several years for occasional boarding. I genuinely trust that my dog is comfortable and looked after closely. Over time they seemed to have gotten to know my dog and provide an individual relationship with her while she is there. As dog trainers they provide intentional handling and management informed by expert knowledge in dog behavior and health. There are many dogs in the facility and it's always clean and well organized. I highly recommend this place to board your furry friends.Posted on Lisa WatkinsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Pinnacle really cares about your dog. They do whatever they can to make them feel at ease and happy. The facility is really nice with a lot of outdoor space. Highly recommend!Posted on Teresa DrewesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a great place for dogs. Excellent training! Beautiful clean modern boarding. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my doodle. Chris has years of experience training, and he and the staff love dogs and go out of their way to make their stay positive.Posted on Teresa LikhangaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This place is the best. Gorgeous surroundings. Modern clean facility. Best of all, the staff loves dogs and really goes the extra mile to make your pets feel welcome and loved.Posted on Yazmin TorresTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
