Deidre was amazing with our young pup! He was rambunctious and non-compliant when he started at Taurus but, after 2 weeks, we had all learned a great deal about better communicating and working together. Deidre answered all of our questions with great knowledge. Her kindness towards the dogs is amazing to watch as she also maintains control of the situation at all times. Our pup now understands his role and it's our job as "his humans" to be consistent and firm with him so we can all peacefully coexist!

This review is for Deidre at Taurus. We took Bear to Taurus when he was still a big puppy and Deidre has done a great job of getting him to calm his energy, obey commands and be an all around better behaved puppy. We would highly recommend her and love the follow up visits that are part of the package. She is the best!!!

I brought in Jordan to introduce our old lab, Dogo argentino & puppy lab. Jordan was amazing, extremely patient and a great trainer. Highly recommended!

While the facility looks a little worn and dated, the way that they run their programs is great. They separate dogs into groups that play well together, taking the stress and anxiety off of me so that I know that my little puppy will have a positive play experience. Also, for overnight boarding they have a 'puppy protocol' (I've been told) where they can take puppies out of their kennels more often and during the nights so that they do not learn to mess in their kennels. This is a huge positive for me. I've been up multiple ... read more

We love Taurus Academy Day Camp!! Higgins loves going to see the staff at Taurus on McNeil (mostly because they call him handsome and play with his ears). We trust them and will definitely look into training and boot camp when Higgins is a little older. Wonderful place!

We have been using Taurus for just over a decade. Some people write reviews after a good/bad cup of coffee or great/terrible service at a restaurant or hotel. I'm going to be short a sweet here. Taurus on Metric has been our dog'a second home for over 10 years. Our dog, Truman, was our first child, before we had children. We have entrusted his care with the outstanding women and men at Taurus for many years, and they have helped to raise a loving, wonderful dog. I actually am somewhat surprised that I haven't reviewed Taur... read more

My dog has been going here for three years now and still loves it!! He even went to their 2 week boot camp and came back a different dog! He is so well behaved now and he is also over his separation anxiety. I will always love the trainers there for that! I also like that they group the dogs by size for play groups and make them take naps/time outs from playing so that the dogs do not over do it and possibly hurt themselves. Which is very important during the summer. And the dogs are always supervised while in the play are... read more

My dog is not great around new people, but everyone at Taurus is incredibly accomodating and knows exactly how to approach, handle, and play with her appropriately. They know my dog Mia as well as I do! She has made tremendous improvement with socialization since going to Taurus for weekly Play Days and she always has a good time when she is boarded. The only time Mia pulls on the leash is to walk into Taurus! I love all the staff and am so grateful to have found such a safe-haven for my pup.
