I was very impressed with the staff & the training. All good things to say. Super clean, very professional staff & knowledgeable. I would highly recommend you using them. My 5 mos. old lab puppy returned after 2 weeks of training..... a complete different puppy. I feel so confident with the "after training" support. A "shout out" to Viri Cereceres!
Business response:
Jill, I'm so glad your Board & Train went well with your lab puppy! I know Viri will be happy to hear from you as well. We look forward to seeing you and your pup again soon! Thanks, Jessie
We left our pups at Taurus for a long weekend and they loved it. From the "tryout" day to the real deal overnight boarding, the entire experience was pleasant. The facility is clean, the staff is nice, and they even give your dogs a report card that highlights their performances. We will use Taurus again as needed. Nice people, great facility, good central location (off Burnet, or many other locations in Austin), and they treat your pups like royalty. Highly recommend.
Business response:
Mitch, Thanks so much for your review! We are always happy to meet new clients and their furry family members. We'll look forward to seeing you and your pups again whenever you need to board! Thanks, Jessie
With my living arrangements and lack of neighborhood dog parks, plus the Texas heat and having to work I decided that I wanted my pup, Casanova, to have some extra play time. After much research, amazing reviews, a recommendation friend/neighbor, and a wonderful orientation I decided on Taurus Academy on Burnet. My Momma's boy of a puppy had no problem there (he normally cries when I leave) played all day, I got a review of his activities and icing on the cake a unexpected package (with a souvenir from his great visit) in ... read more
Business response:
Michelle, Thank you for your kind review! We love seeing Casanova when you come in for boarding and Play Days, and can't wait to see you both again soon! We're happy to be a safe place for your fur baby to come play. Thanks, Jessie
I adopted a dog from the shelter with...issues. Thankfully Taurus had just opened in my hood! I had heard great things about this place but I have to say my expectations were exceeded. Jeff, Rachel, Viri and the rest of the "pack" are literally the nicest people I have ever met. Cooper and both fell in love. No hesitation in giving this place 5 stars.
Business response:
Meghan, Thank you so much for your kind review! I know Jeff, Rachel, Viri and the rest of the Burnet Pack will be so happy to hear from you. Our mission is to help create happier households, and doing that for you makes our day. We can't wait to see you again soon! Thanks, Jessie
Our dog, Ruby, spent the weekend at Taurus while we were out of town. After arriving she got sick (caused by the heart worm medicine we gave her the day before). The staff at Taurus burnet road location went above and beyond to make sure our dog was safe, well cared for and comfortable. They took her to a vet out of concern and stayed in constant communication with us during our trip. Additionally they were kind and patient - never acted like this was a burden. She was treated as if she were their own dog and bc of that we a... read more
Business response:
