March of 2001 was the one of the longest months for us as we took our puppy Katie to Northwest Canine Training and left her in the hands of
Joni Bories. Little did we know what we would find when we picked her up. She was a completely different dog. She was still sweet and lovable and very happy to see us, but as we sat and watched
Joni show us what all she had taught to Katie, we just couldn't believe our eyes. She was calm, obedient, and ready to please. To this day, when we put on her collar and lead, the first thing she does is sit.
Joni is incredible. She has an immense love for animals and treats each "guest" with kindness and respect. Her facility is very clean, organized and is set up to make the dogs feel comfortable.
We highly recommend Joni to anyone looking for great
training.

My oh My! I couldn't believe my eyes when I went to pick up Sasha. Of course I was excited to see her but I had no idea she would look so good and walk so well! Sasha tore her cruciate ligament and I put off surgery because I knew the recovery process would be long and hard. Well, it wasn't because a week after surgery she started
aquatics with Joni. After touring Joni's facility I found myself wishing I had had such a
recovery process when I had knee surgery! Sasha was in
recovery for about a month and she
is already putting full weight on that leg! Just looking at Sasha's coat and twinkle in her eye I know that Sasha got much more from Joni than the
recovery of her injured leg. Joni is the best in every way.
When my then six-month old Aussie lab was diagnosed with bilateral hip
dysplasia, I was devastated. I'd noticed something wrong with Lucy already--she did not have that usual "playful puppy" energy: she hesitated going up and down even the shortest of steps, bunnyhopped most of the time while running, and was always behind me, walking slowly, on a walk. Upon seeing a surgeon
Dr. Joseph
Harari, Veterinary Surgical Specialists, he recommended we try hydrotherapy with Joni.
I met Joni when I was referred by my veterinarian for the best dog in the world. Bill was my best friend and a 180 lb English Mastiff baby. He desperately needed physical therapy due to a surgery attempt on his hip. While the surgery’s outcome was less than perfect, what it DID do is bring me to a place where all dogs should stay, work, play and exercise.
While Bill became the love of many people’s lives, he had a special love for Joni. When we headed toward the car, he just KNEW we were going to go swim. Bill was instrumental in assisting Joni to develop a program for the giant patient. I learned much from Joni. Her heart is as big as it gets and without her, I would not have made many good friends or had a greater appreciation for the holistic health of my dogs.
Northwest Canine is the best place for canines and adults to learn what it truly means to be a pet owner. It is a spotless kennel. Joni and her staff are excellent. My new dog Tater has visited Joni and I am planning on starting obedience training with her. Thanks Joni for a great place and for being an awesome friend. Cheri

My Newfoundland, Balou, was born with very bad hips. He never wanted to run or play. When he was 1˝, we had surgery done on one side. This helped a lot, but he still didn't run much. Balou started what I call his water aerobics class with Joni last fall. Within a month he was moving so much better. Then I started noticing that he would just run for no reason. He started to lose weight and feels so much better. I can't say enough for this therapy and how great Joni is with animals. I know this will extend and also improve the quality of his life. I only wish she had this when he was younger. If your pet is part of the family and you love them as much as we do, please consider this for them. Ann Sweet Otis Orchards
