Question on Google
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!

Question on Google
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.

Question on Google
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

Community answer · Buckeye K9 · 2019-09-21

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!

Lori and her entire team at Buckeye K9 are great! After 4 years of taking our anxious GSD with us on trips, we decided we needed to have somewhere that we could take him to . We felt so comfortable after meeting with Mark during our tour, he answered all of our questions and took his time with us. Their place is so clean and so organized and we know our boy is being taken care of while he is there! We even did a few days of training on the place command and leash pulling and he is much better. I would recommend Buckeye K9 to everyone!
