What Reviews Say

223 reviews analyzed

Mountain State K9 Academy is highly regarded for its intensive board-and-train programs, with many owners reporting 'miraculous' behavioral changes in reactive or stubborn dogs. While the training staff receives near-universal praise for their expertise, the boarding-only service has faced sharp criticism regarding additional fees for 'out-of-kennel' time and a lack of air conditioning. Most significantly, the facility has two high-severity red flags involving a fatal heat stroke and a severe dog fight, though the owner provides detailed, defensive rebuttals to these incidents.
