Loyal Canines

"Extremely affordable, my 2 dogs can’t wait to get away from me and get inside the building. They receive a lot of attention from the employees and they are completely exhausted and utterly useless for 24 hours afterwards. I am very particular and I do not bring my dogs to the dog park; this place is much better to socialize them. They are on top of making sure only vaccinated dogs are accepted. I highly recommend these folks."

"I am vacationing from out of town. Before I leave home, I plan ahead and talk to the businesses and make sure my dog’s records are up to date and in order. Loyal Canines were great on the phone and even better in person. They took care of my pets and were truly compassionate about their work. I have been in the “dog” business for over 40 years and am picky about who I promote. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my dogs here again on my next visit to Salem."

"I found Loyal Canines when shortly after I rescued my fourth dog, he attacked one of my other dogs. I was distraught, worried and wasn’t sure what to do. I certainly could not let him terrorize my other dog, but how could I desert him? I called Loyal Canines and discussed my options after finding them through an internet search. I contacted other trainers too, but after talking to Loyal Canines, preferred them. I brought him there for one month of intensive Boot Camp. Two weeks in while I was training with him and the trainer, I decided to bring one of my other rescues for two weeks of Boot Camp as well. They did a spectacular job with both of them and importantly with me. They were easier than me I’m sure. We have had no problems at home and I have a very cohesive four-dog pack that all get along. When I walk them, I actually say it out loud to them, “how are you so perfect”? They walk like dream dogs. People still cross the street when they see me coming, but they are perfect. They aren’t lunging at other dogs or people. I have great control of them. I was so lucky to find them for training. Because this went so well, I also utilize them now for daycare a few days a week and for boarding if I need to. They are so accommodating and so wonderful to my dogs that I’m able to do what I need to do and not worry about them. I have recommended Loyal Canines to a friend who also utilized them for training Boot Camp and daycare. She too, is very happy. I highly recommend, Loyal Canines. I am so grateful to everyone there. My dogs love them."

"Jay, Abbey and the whole Loyal Canines team are fantastic. My dog had a lot of behavioral issues related to anxiety. We had tried multiple other avenues to help solve the problem with no luck before ending up at Loyal Canines. Jay did the initial evaluation of my dog and went into a lot of detail to get a good understanding of the issues so he could recommend the best available solution. I really appreciated that he and the Loyal Canines team want to offer solutions that will work and they aren’t just trying to sell you something. My dog ended up going for a 3 week boot camp and the results so far have been more than I could have asked for. Abbey worked with Rory for most of his time there and she was great. She explained everything that they were going to work on, would provide updates when I called in to check on my dog, and gave detailed instructions on what we need to do to continue my dog’s training at home. Overall the work done at Loyal Canines has made my life easier and more importantly made a positive change in my dog’s happiness and quality of life. Also I have sent both my dogs to Loyal Canines for regular boarding and I could not have been happier with the care they received while there. It gives me peace of mind having someone you can trust to care for your dogs while you’re are away. I 100% recommend Loyal Canines to anyone looking for training or boarding services for their dog and will definitely use them again in the future."

"We board our female Rottweiler and our male Bernese here when we go on vacation. Jay and his team are amazing. Jay has been working with our Rotty since she was a puppy. At first she was a typical Alpha female, stubborn and difficult to train. Jay took her for boot camp and she responded well to him. She is well behaved, lovable and responds to corrections appropriately. I highly recommend Loyal Canines."
