Mark has been super helpful! I am a first time dog mom and my puppy is not with me yet. As I prepare I have been able to discuss his care at length with him. I will be visiting with my pup and getting some lessons.

We have 2 miniature dachshunds that are 6 years old. They are litter mates and house training was extremely difficult. Mark took us back to the basics. He helped us to achieve our goal. We are happy with the end result! He also worked on leash training, basic commands and obedience. My dogs are calmer and more relaxed thanks to Mark. Most of all, he taught the human how to communicate and be the leader, which was so important and helpful. I would highly recommend Mark for any of your dogtraining needs! Thanks Mark!

Mark is a great trainer. He answered all and any question, even if they were minor. He is very personable, and I would recommend him to anyone who is looking to have a trainer that gives your pet that special attention.
Thak again.

Mark is not only an expert in his field, but also the consummate professional. He took time out of his busy day to speak to me for almost an hour about the “Recipe” towards success in puppy training. I highly recommend Mark for his insight and passion in this industry and WILL working with him in the near future. Give him a call!

Mark is the best dogtrainer I’ve come across. He’s a dog whisperer! He trained my puppy in his boarding boot camp for 40 days and she came back a different dog in all the best ways. I’m truly grateful I found him. His process is truly incredible. If you need dogtraining - look no further. Mark is where you go. Hands down 10/10
