Testimonials
Mark is absolutely incredible. He has trained our Rottweiler since he was a puppy and we couldn’t be happier. I love that he is able to do training at our home and that he spends time with the owners as well. Last but not least, Mark answers questions we may have, even though our training was a couple of years ago! Thankful for your services Mark!

Mark has been a wonderful training instructor for our 1.5 yr old bernedoodle. Not only is he incredibly knowledgeable, our dog loves him! He teaches with patience and takes the time to explain concepts thoroughly and effectively. He even has us record videos during sessions so we are able to reference them if we need a refresher. Since working with him, we have seen a vast improvement in our pup’s temperament and behavior. Training has quickly become one of the highlights of our dog’s day. If you are looking for a kind, knowledgeable, and easy-going instructor, Mark is your guy.

Exceptional, caring, loving, and supportive trainer. We have 2 yellow labs that are high energy boys, given our disabilities we had specific needs and goals for training. Mark was excellent at setting expectations and providing support to us through the training and retention process. This has made all the difference for us. Highly recommend Mark & Gibson’s Canine Classroom. He is an extraordinary trainer!
