Learning her first official task as well as all the ground work for future ones. Communication from Nick during Sayde's stay was incredible! He kept me up to date with pictures and information throughout the entire experience. He, even still months later, checks in on us and ensures we are still making progress and that their training remains in place. A quality hard to find in many training programs. I would highly recommend Mayday Dog Training for anyone looking to improve their dogs obedience or complex training.

I am so glad I came across Nick. My pup Apollo is a 7 months old European Working bloodline German…read moreshepherd with an incredible prey drive. I wanted a personal protection dog that's not only obedient, but good with kids and family. A trained dog that can go anywhere with me. Wether it's a car ride, hiking, swimming or maybe go to the mall. I wanted a dog that can do many tricks and impress my friends and family while protecting us anywhere we go. I started researching online and discovered that such a dog can cost anywhere from $50k to a $120k (not kidding). Not willing to spend this kind of money, I decided to go a different route. I started my search for a good working lines German shepherd dog breeder and found one locally. I got my pup around 8 weeks old and wanted to find a good dog trainer right away. After countless days of speaking to different trainers, I came across Nick through Facebook and decided to give him a try. From the moment I spoke to Nick, I knew that he was a great fit for Apollo. He explained to me that this is a project dog and cannot be completed overnight and will require different courses throughout my puppy's development which I happily agreed to. I sent Apollo in for the very first time at 3 months old for his first 2 weeks program. It made a huge difference. I couldn't believe that it was the same dog. Apollo was crate trained, obedient and was able to learn more than 7 commands in German. Apollo is 7 months old now and I just dropped him off to Nick for another 2 weeks. I can't wait to see what my pup can learn this time! It's really hard to find a dog trainer that can handle Apollo's level of energy. I will not let anyone touch Apollo but Nick.

We paid $2k last August and were promised a lifetime guarantee. The guy kept our dog for five weeks…read moreand when he came back, he had very minimal training. We tried to reach out to the trainer, but he wouldn't answer our calls after a year. I finally got a hold of corporate and they let me know that the guy was ripping people off and using their name. They said they would make it right we went to do an assessment last weekend. The gentleman told us everything would be covered since they were filing a federal case against the old trainer that took advantage of us. We just got a call that we would have to pay another $3000 and they were gonna give us $200 off. I can't believe they took advantage of us like this. I would not recommend this company to anyone. They also act like they all for veterans. My husband and I are both beds and I'm a disabled vet. Our hard earned money was stolen with zero remorse or accountability.

Sidney is the BEST dog trainer hands down!! We have tried other trainers for Ellie and comparing…read moreour experiences, Sidney has changed our lives for the better. He is a retired k9 police officer from Chicago and does REAL WORLD training. No tricks or treats. We first knew of Sidney when we saw him hold classes right outside of the dog park and we thought it would be the perfect training for Ellie. She would get easily distracted even by a leaf or a butterfly and take off. Also, she needed some obedience training. Fast forward, we have been training with Sidney for almost a year and we keep coming back. He knows how to read your dog to bring out the best in each of them. We went in wanting to learn obedience, and we keep wanting to learn more to see what else she is capable of doing. We truly enjoy the time we spend with Ellie in training classes each week and incorporating these skills in our routines at home. Ellie is a very well trained dog and we can actually walk her off leash with confidence that she will not wander off. We have also competed and placed in AKC rally competitions in her first weekend. If you're willing to put in the work with your dog and want to meet other hard working dog owners, come check out Total Control K9 College. We practice at Bill Archer Dog Park every Saturday morning around 9-11 AM and Wednesdays at Preppy Pet parking lot on Highway 6 and Rippling Waters at 7PM - rain or shine. Also, check out his Facebook live videos on the Total Control K9 College page to watch him work his magic on dogs who come in with behavioral issues or with high energy and within minutes he calms them down. I have witnessed this with my own eyes every week... I just can't make this stuff up!

I have a baby cat in my hands so I'm not aware of the time but how hard is it to let someone know "hey ur gonna have to check out right now." Instead of just horsing around throwing merchandise from one side of the store to the other. I wish I could give zero stars.

Management did not. This was entirely preventable and shows a serious lack of follow-through and accountability. I only avoided a wasted trip by calling myself. Unacceptable.

Staff also took pictures and updated us on the dogs' behavior and wellness throughout their stay. The treats and food provided were also super high quality. Gertie (pictured) got a full groom and trim. Her paws are perfectly clean and shaped up and her nails are trimmed nicely too. She also smells fantastic. Thank you Rover Oaks :-)

Great initial training, helped us learn how to successfully walk such a big powerful breed, we were off to a great start... Fast forward to this winter, we've moved to a new house and neighborhood, much bigger yard, and Diesel nearly refuses to go out side. It's the week after Christmas, we left Bob a message and we're thinking, I doubt we'll hear back from Bark Busters till the new year. We were HAPPILY surprised to hear back from Bob and within a few short hours, Diesel is HAPPILY going out with us to the back yard. Bob is truly dedicated to making sure you and your dog know how to communicate. That you have all the tools and training you need to have a happy and healthy relationship with your pup. (Even if your 'pup' is an 85lb dobie-dog.)

The vet technicians are so sweet to my KoKo they always take great care of her very gentle and friendly and I love that. Dr Smith was a breath of fresh air she answered all my questions I had and I look forward to building a rock solid relationship with her, I feel KoKo will be in good hands with all of the staff and that's important to me.

We spent a long time seeking recommendations for vets near to us in historic Katy. We found Elyson Animal Hospital had highest rated reviews and figured it would be worth a 20 minute drive. Wow, were we impressed! We saw how they earned their 5 star rating! From convenient parking, to the cheerful greetings, to the spotless interior, to Sarah, our capable, gracious tech, to Doctor Baskin, the vet with 20 years experience, on her second day with this practice, every thing and one was 5 star! We consider her the best vet we ever saw! She gave us options for treatment for our 8.5 year old Cavapoo, and was also conscious of our budget. It's rare to find excellence and budget thoughtfulness together! Rocky enjoyed his royal treatment and cane out feeling great! We couldn't recommend more highly! We would drive an hour to see Dr. Baskin! Thank you!!
