    Jake

    We have seen an AMAZING transformation in our dog Jake since we started training with Chris! Before we called Elite K-9, Jake tried to bite anyone who came in our house and reacted aggressively to every dog, person and car we encountered on our walks. He would start growling and barking if we stopped to talk to anyone. Chris taught us how to take control and give Jake the guidance he needs. Chris came to our house for personalized training, and invited us to group class when Jake was ready. The group classes provide a safe space for exposing dogs to distractions and practicing training skills without judgement. Brooks and Abby were very helpful as well! Now Jake stays calm when friends and family come over to our house, and our walks have become much more enjoyable! No more pulling or reacting to everything around us; we can stop to talk to our neighbors without any issues. Jake is much more relaxed now and looks to us for instructions instead of trying to control every situation. We highly recommend Elite K-9 for training any dog; we couldn't have done it without them!

    We have gone to chris at elite k9 for the last year. Our biggest concerns were recall, healing and staying in the invisible fence. Woo hoo! We have accomplished all of these items and are proud to take our dogs out and about. More importantly they stay in the yard! Thank you chris and team for helping us with our dogs Thank you Angelo, hyla, Rhone and Bordeaux

    Elite K-9 and Chris have been AMAZING to work with! Our Rottweiler, Meatball, was a COVID puppy that had ZERO socialization which is super important for a rottie. He even jumped the fence & our neighbor called animal control. He wouldn't even let Chris in the house the first time we met, but now he's one of his favorite people! Chris has always been clear and concise with training. He is also very responsive in between training sessions for questions or concerns. Meatball is doing so much better and I know with Chris' great instruction and training techniques he's going to be the best dog he can be. I am so grateful we found Chris and Elite K-9 to help us train our Meatball so he can be a happy puppy and we can enjoy time together. If you're looking to train your dog - this is the place to be!

    There are mentors... and then there are the people who truly change the trajectory of your life and…read morecareer. Adam @ MOCK9 has been one of those people for me. His knowledge, honesty, patience, and ability to push handlers and dogs to a higher standard is something that's hard to find in this industry. He doesn't just teach dog training -- he teaches clarity, structure, accountability, and how to truly understand the dog in front of you. Some of the biggest growth I've had as a trainer has come from being challenged to think deeper, communicate better, and hold both myself and my dogs to a higher level. Adam has a way of breaking things down that makes training make sense while still expecting excellence. I'm incredibly grateful for the mentorship, guidance, and support. The impact has reached far beyond just me -- it's improved the dogs and handlers I work with every single day. If you ever get the opportunity to learn from MOCK9, take it. The knowledge and experience are invaluable.

They texted me when they were available. They booked a consultation with me not one time did any person mention a consultation fee. Which is not an issue some places charge a consultation fee some do not. The issue lies where they texted me at 6 o'clock in the morning the day of my consultation request requesting a payment from me and waking me up. I asked them if we could speak later than after I got another request for a payment. So I asked why are you sending me a payment link he says if you want to keep the consultation you have to pay for it I was like why would you not tell me that when I called to book the appointment to speak to you or when you were texting me. He laughed at me then tells me that it's posted all over their website. I wasn't referred via their website. So I let him know it doesn't matter you did not at any point in time mentioning a consultation fee then you think it's appropriate to wake me up at six something in the morning to ask me for a payment the day of the consultation. It was very unprofessional very rude and then when I told him that it was unprofessional that I would like to cancel the appointment they then laugh at me. And tell me that I'm being hostile. It's not being hostile not wanting to be woken up at 6 o'clock in the morning. It's not hostile saying that if there is a consultation fee, the client should be made aware of the fee prior to booking the consultation not 6 o'clock in the morning of. It makes you feel like the only thing these people care about is the money that they're not really trying to give anyone a good experience that they're not trying to make sure that when people come to this company, they experience a professional situation. I wouldn't book with somebody who treats their clients like this. Also for future reference when you guys read the review. You should mention to somebody when you're on the phone with them or even when you're texting them that there's a consultation fee when you're scheduling and how much it's for. Not just send them a payment link request requesting a random payment.

Our lives continued to get smaller as we could not have her around friends, family, and dogs. We tried several dog training companies with no success. And then we found behavioral vets. Dr. Maffeo quickly realized Remi is not aggressive; she is highly anxious.  We worked on a treatment and medication that included dog training with Eric G. and slowly started to understand our canine friend. Everything started coming together when we began working with Eric.  Remi responded exceptionally well to the positive reinforcement training. I cannot say enough good things about Eric. Hands down the best dog trainer I have ever worked with. He is kind and patient with Remi and me. Eric turned dog walks from chaotic embarrassing, and downright painful into a joyful bonding experience. I am a huge dog lover and have rescued and fostered. Remi tested my patients, and I almost gave up on her. I am thankful to Eric every day for helping me find a path to help make Remi's world bigger and brighter.

Eric G is the best trainer I have ever worked with. He is a masterclass in communication with both people and dogs. He helped both my dog and I in ways multiple other trainers were unable to. I highly recommend the team here, especially Eric for any dog behavior concerns.

They completed a two‑week boarding school followed by five follow‑up sessions, and the results have been fantastic. Quinn was professional, knowledgeable, and truly invested in our dogs' success. She did a great job not only training Nash and Parker, but also teaching us how to maintain and build on what they learned once they came home. The follow‑up sessions were incredibly helpful and showed how much she cares about long‑term results, not just quick fixes. We saw noticeable improvements in behavior, responsiveness, and overall confidence in both dogs. It's clear Quinn is passionate about what she does, and we felt comfortable knowing our dogs were in great hands. I would highly recommend Quinn to anyone looking for a skilled and dedicated dog trainer

She brings such a calm, knowledgeable, and thoughtful approach to training, and it's clear how much she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. We saw real progress with our dog, Kendrick, in a relatively short amount of time. What truly set this experience apart, though, was how Quinn handled a scary and unexpected situation. During Kendrick's initial board-and-train, he had a seizure. Quinn stepped in immediately, took great care of him, and kept us informed while we rushed home. Knowing he was with someone so attentive and compassionate made an incredibly stressful moment much easier. On top of that, Pavlov honored the remaining portion of his training, and Quinn welcomed him back once he was ready to complete the program. That level of flexibility and integrity speaks volumes. We're so grateful for Quinn -- not just for the training, but for the trust and care she showed when it mattered most. Highly recommend.

After going through the process of interviewing our offerings in Castle Rock, we chose Tails Up. Now it books up fast so you really should plan ahead. Although calling them and begging them also works ;) They have a very good online scheduling site where you can book all of their visits. Enzo loves it there and I can vouch for him since I can go online and watch him through all of their cameras. This play does NOT have all day play, which I prefer since my dog would be exhausted if they did that. When I board him there for longer than a few days, I always sign him up for some extra play sessions or tennis ball day where they put out a ton of tennis balls and dogs can live their best life playing fetch, etc. I can't recommend them enough!

    I unfortunately can no longer recommend this boarding facility. Today we picked up our cats Rosco…read moreand Keanu from a 10 day stay (8/15/2024-8/23/2024), this is their 4th stay in 2 years with Tails Up. We texted to check in on them everyday and were told they were great. When we picked them up today though, it was clear they have been having diarrhea, with Rosco having lots of poo matted in his fur. They never let us know they were showing signs of illness, even with our daily check ins. They said nothing at pick up. Additionally, when picking up they informed me I could not go into the cat room to get them but had to wait and have them do it due to "the room being under construction" - that was a first but okay. They come out with my cats in their carrier and a bag with two of my cats toys and another animals medication, handing it to me saying this was theirs. I notified them it wasn't and instructed them we were missing a bag of many toys, a wand, blankets, etc. and their medication and treats. She came back with just the medication, told me I was good to go. Again asked about the bag of toys and blankets. Went back and brought just the bag of toys, said I was good to go. This went on for a total of 5-6 trips to bring us the rest of our stuff. She ended up still missing some wipes and our food scoop, but we didn't realize till we got home. The blanket we left in Rosco's crate also was in the laundry for some reason, they have never washed their bedding before which also tells me he must have had diarrhea bad enough to have to clean his bedding. We are very unsure if another animal's medication was administered to our cats based on this interaction, the diarrhea, and them acting very oddly since being home. Keanu keeps waking up in a panic from his naps like he is having bad dreams. It genuinely seems like they were not taken well care of while there. We are afraid they were administered medication that wasn't theirs and they could be sick from it. And they seem skittish and afraid. I do not know what the people at Tails Up did to them this time for them to react this way. They have been boarded for more than 10 days each time, and never come home like this. I texted their number right when we noticed they had diarrhea caked in their fur to ask if they had been sick, why we hadn't been notified if they had, and whether they had been administered another animals medication -- no response over 12 hours later. I have sent an email as well tonight, no response. Never received a "report card" either, even though their app notified me one should be available, which seems even more suspicious -- we have always received it right after check out. TLDR; I can no longer recommend this facility. They seemed to have misled me when checking in on their well being and his that they were having bad diarrhea, were completely disorganized on pick up (which is a first), lost several of our items, tried to give me another animals medication instead of their own to take home, and may have administered another animals medication to my cats. I cannot trust them to care for my cats and be conscious of their safety while boarding there, and my cats are acting traumatized now that they are home. Spend your money somewhere that you pets will be safe.

Everything from Pomeranians to Labrador and Golden Retrievers and every breed, temperament and personality in between. It's easy to find trainers but it can be really hard to find a GOOD trainer! Over the years, we've spent thousands on dog behavior veterinarians, breed specific trainers, and your basic pet store group classes. All of these can work for some dogs, but not all. We lost our two black Labrador brothers this past summer to age related health problems. We were completely devestated. We didn't know if we could do it again until Jack decided for us. Jack is a male Bichon mix rescue, but who rescued who? Jack rescued us - literally ! When we got Jack home we wanted to start out on the right foot immediately. We used two online trainings - waste of money and time. We asked, searched and found several self-proclaimed and "guaranteed results" trainers. You had a time limited training. From past training experiences, if your dog didn't learn everything in that timeframe you were left feeling frustrated and confused as to what to do next. Then we found Adrienne at Bark Busters. They aren't inexpensive, but when we found out they would be partners for the life of our dog, we were hooked. In over 40 years of our dogs and training, Adrienne is the ONLY trainer who actually knows what she's doing. Jack began training as a timid puppy who then developed into a defiant teenager with an attitude. Adrienne has given us the tools and behavioral changes we needed to make to consistently provide Jack with age appropriate expectations. We now understand how to think like a dog and speak "dog". Jack is becoming calm and confident that we are the leaders and he can enjoy being a puppy. Thank you Adrienne!
