Today, at Lowes for our intermediate class, our sweet Zoey (3 years old) watched a cart go by and showed interest. This brought me to tears because 3 months ago she would have run away and cowered from the noise. Mark came to our house …

My dog was happy to go there & happy to come home.

They take wonderful care of her!!

We left our 3 month-old cavapoo in the extremely knowledgeable and caring hands of the staff at Tuxedo K9. Although we had Duke trained by the owner and were extremely pleased, we were uneasy about boarding... the staff immediately put our …

Mark is a fantastic, empathetic, dog-centered trainer who also trains us as owners (half the battle). I couldn't recommend his classes more. My pup loved her class there – can't wait to take more!

We attended the dog obedience classes in Webster. Mark is an excellent trainer. Dogs really connected with him. Classes were well structured and informative.

Mark is so good at training and instructions for our puppy. He also loves going to school, almost as much as going to their doggy day care day to play. ☺️☺️

I'm so impressed with Mark – his connection, care and love for dogs and his experience and knowledge of training so many different kinds with such different personalities, ages and circumstances. He's very thorough in his trainings, helping…

Mark is an excellent trainer, the facility is excellent for boarding and daycare needs as well. I would definitely use their facilities again to care for my beloved pet Leila.

Mark was quick to reply via emails answering any questions we had.

It was a good experience for my dog Kelly to go to Tuxedo K9 when I first brought her home from the rescue at about 7 month. She learned some fundamentals of good dog behavior and saw other dogs doing what she was doing.

Training camp at K-9 is terrific! I have been to other training camps with my other dogs and K-9 is my favorite. They do not use a "military" approach, rather they use positive reinforcement and encouragement, to which my dog responds well.

We had a lot of work to do with our rescue Phoebe and Mark gave us the tools to turn around some of her negative behavior so that we could enjoy her. We would highly recommend him to anyone that is interested in training their dog! ~…

Mark and his staff do an awesome job with the dogs. Highly recommend Tuxedo's K9.

Marks expertise and knowledge was invaluable to us working with our dog.

Took great care of my 2 Bichons for 3 days of boarding. Highly recommend!

Good supervision. Mark has knowledge & kindness for everyone’s dogs. He is helpful.

I love this facility as a daycare, the trainers here are very knowledgeable. I found that the training classes weren't for me, which isn't to say they were bad, I just prefer different methods. I had taken a dog here for their reactivity …

I have been taking Max to Tuxedo K9 for about three years. We use Daycare and Boarding. Since the beginning we have not had any complaints. Mark and Staff are wonderful! GREAT PLACE!

Mark who owns this business is the best. He speaks to animals and they understand. His business is as clean as a whistle you can feel good vibes on the premises. Doggy day care at its best.

My dog, Mabel, simply loves Mark and spending time…

My dog has bad anxiety if left in a small confined area and left alone for too long. TK9 goes above and beyond to keep him content and comfortable and give him the attention he needs. I can't praise Mark and his staff enough!

We boarded our puppy Willie last week. The staff was excellent when we brought him in and made us feel comfortable leaving him. Appreciate having the cameras to check in on him. Great local business !! Thank you!
