Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
what products do you have that boost the brain power
Starmark Animal Behavior and Starmark Pet Products offer many different forms of mental stimulation. The Bob-A-Lot really keeps the attention going, because you set the difficulty. Starmark Animal Behavior has trainers on staff that can help you with different techniques you can do as well. I am not a trainer, I am a former employee.

I am handicapped. I would love for my 6 mo old Aussie to walk with me and not be afraid she will trip me. Is this something you do?
Yes, ask for Justine, she is amazing!! She taught my very sweet but stubborn pup who was a very strong puller to walk perfectly on a leash.

Toured the learning facilities, pro shop, and kennels. Very clean and professional. Highly recommend for those looking for daycare, boarding or training options.
I enjoyed being able to meet new clients and getting to know their dogs. That being said, I lost respect for the management over there and the way that they operate. Also, the turnover rate is high.

I have used both their board & train services along with regular boarding. Their trainers are very professional and they have an expansive facility that offers nature walks, a dog pool, and yummy frozen treats for your pups to stay engaged during their stay. I also really like their dog park, splash pad and connection to the brushy creek area. My dog especially loves the creek. I have yet to try their day care services but it’s next on the list. I think they are reasonably priced for what you and your puppet are receiving.

We made the mistake of leaving our dog here for the 4 week board and train. Upon pick up, we noticed a significant weight loss and he was desperate for water. After being given water, he vomited the liquid and what seemed to just be treats from that day. Minimal training was given and the trainer we had originally scheduled with quit with no notice that a new trainer would be taking over. We feel sick to our stomachs for considering this place. Please don’t make the same mistake we did.
