Comprehensive Pet Therapy, Inc. Enters Into Partnership with Ruff n’ Tumble, Inc.

September 6, 2001

Comprehensive Pet Therapy, Inc. (CPT), Atlanta’s largest and most respected pet training company is pleased to announce the commencement of a business partnership with Ruff n’ Tumble, Llc. (Alpharetta, GA). Ruff n’ Tumble’s Alpharetta dog activity center provides day care and exercise services for dog owners in the North Fulton area.

CPT’s presence will expand the services provided at Ruff n’ Tumble. CPT trainers will perform group classes and private lessons at Ruff n’ Tumble’s Alpharetta facility.

Colleen Kane, a co-owner of Ruff n’ Tumble, stated that “We are excited to establish a training presence in addition to our outstanding day care. Everyone we spoke to highly recommended CPT. In addition, we knew CPT personally from the great job they did with my mother’s Old English Sheepdog.”

Mark Spivak, CPT’s owner, “is extremely impressed with Ruff n’ Tumble. They have far and away the most impressive day care services in metro Atlanta. Since our businesses complement one another, rather than compete, we believe our partnership will provide superior vertical integration for our businesses and superior service for our customers. We have been looking for an Alpharetta location and are extremely pleased to associate with an entity that shares our attention to quality.”

Since its inception in 1992, CPT has trained the dogs of over 17,000 Atlanta area customers. CPT offers group classes at four locations (Sandy Springs, Cumming, Acworth, and Alpharetta), in-home private lessons throughout the Atlanta metro area, and a unique boarding training program at 14 locations where customer dogs reside at a trainer’s home as opposed to a kennel. CPT Head Trainers have competed on world teams, placed in national competitions, won regional titles, placed dogs in movies, and appeared frequently as behavioral experts on television news shows.
