FirstBarkWe loved this place + our dogs did too! This was our 1st time boarding - it was so nice seeing that our boys came home bathed and smelling good after pick up & that we didn't need to worry one bit. We will definitely be back! Bonus points for being great at handling our GSD's, one who isn't so great at making friends. Thank you Buckeye K9

We've called quite a few times and only got answering machine. Did the number change?
Normally they're working with the pups and might not hear the phone. Please leave a message they will respond quickly!

I have a seven week old pitbull timberwolf mix. Do you have services and training sessions to train him to become a service dog?
Yes! They can do service dog training. I highly recommend Lori and her staff for any training needs. I've use her a few times and have recommended to friends who have had awesome results. In fact, her business has my newest member of the family as I write this!

My dog Abbey does great with commands in the house and did good outside until a couple months ago. Now she wants to bolt when you take her outside, what can I do?
We would want to put off leash control on your dog so if she tries to run off you can have full control of her and call her back to you.

Do they help with older dogs who have behavior issues as well as potty issues?
Hi Sandy Yes, we can definitely work with older dogs. However, they may take a little longer to help fix if they have had bad behaviors for many years and have gotten away with things so long. I will contact you today with programs and pricing :) Thanks Lori

They would probably evaluate and then give you an idea of what they can offer for the specific issues you're having, but the trainers are more than capable!

All I can say is, WOW! I’m a disabled vet, not only did this amazing company full of professionals train my Malinios for ptsd, they also put me in touch with a veteran organization to help pay the bill! We became good friends since. I will NEVER go or refer anyone to another company involving K9s. Make sure you ask them about their pet medical insurance policy’s that are super cheap.
Absolute Rip off,both times our dog was there comes back skin and bones, they returned half of the food we prepared for the dog. Seems like they don’t really care! Way overpriced for the service they provide!!
We were nervous about boarding our large dog at a new place, but Buckeye K9 immediately put us at ease. They knew exactly how to handle him and he was so excited to be there. Kelley was also very nice about keeping us updated on how our pup was doing and sending photos. It was a good price for boarding and we knew our dog was having a fun time.
I had to board my GSD Alita for the first time. I was really pleased at the cleanliness of the kennels as I dropped her off. Everyone I dealt with was exceptionally professional, friendly and courteous. Thank you for the care you took with my pride and joy! Ken
