My family and I were going on a trip to fl last month (may) and we had to board our Jack Russell, Meatball. Meatball was very scared/aggressive towards other dogs and skittish around people. So I was so sad and worried I had to put him in an environment with his fears. When we got there he was as described. He didn't really want to greet the ladies who worked there but the one (I wish I could remember her name!) was very patient with him and just told me to let him off his leash and let him do his thing. As I was filling out paper work/being shown around, Meatball started warming up to the lady. And a little bit later he allowed her to hold him and she held him like a baby. (something he has NEVER done with anyone else but me) so I felt better knowing she was going to be there the majority of the weekend I would be away. A few days later I called to come pick him up, after our trip and this same lady said "Meatball is a completely different dog. He greets people, and is running around playing with other dogs" I didn't believe it but when I arrived, sure enough he came running to see me with 2 other big dogs! I could've cried, it was so amazing to see. She said she just let him come around in his own time, never pushed him and he just became a "dog" for once. Instead of becoming aggressive right away, he did as a dog should and smelled first to greet. Taking him here has truly been therapy for him and life changing for him and my family! I would absolutely recommend "Bark Central" to everyone! Fantastic people and a fantastic place! -Mindy (Chambersburg PA)
