Could not recommend K9 guardians more. Our dog went through a horrible attack from another dog and we never thought she could act like a normal dog. K9 guardians brought her out of her shell and did a complete 180 with her for training. We will be coming back!

NOT A GOOD FACILITY WORST PLACE POSSIBLE. DON'T GO THERE... I brought my dog there for there boot camp training and was horrified and in tears when I picked him up. When I got him he was 15 lbs under weight and had an extremely swollen ankle. Further review and x-rays the vet did showed that it was sprained and his doc said it looked like a door or something hard was shut on it. ÂThe doctor also said my dog was so under weight bc he had to of been starved for at least a week and was EXTREMELY dehydrated. When I called up to ... read more

Great Training Facility I love this facility and the trainers. I had heard about this place for years and when I finally needed to go I was very impressed with the level of training and knowledge the head trainer Gary and assistant Joe have with all types and sizes of dogs. Whether small or big they can work with all breeds. My female dog was a rescue dog and I took her there for basics and I wanted her to be able to come back when called since she was...was a runner. Now she will stop and stay and best of all come when call... read more

The worse experience I have ever had at a boarder in my life and I have own dogs for 40 years. They failed to bath my dogs, they when I told them ahead of time I would be coming in at 1pm the failed to mention they would charge an extra day. When I tried to have a discussion they were very rude. The fly a veteran flag outside, and myself and my wife are both combat veterans. I plan to post this on every forum possible don’t ever use this place! They cannot spell customer service!

This is truly the only place I trust to train my dogs. My dog, Snickers, and I have been going to the obedience classes for about the past month and there is a huge difference in how he acts. Before I would walk him and he would be trying to walk me. Now, he's a lot better. These guys are truly awesome and I would recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat.
