About StarMark

Starmark pet products reflect the way dogs learn and have fun. Utilizing the expertise of our Certified Training and Behavior Specialists we create mental stimulation and interactive play toys, training tools, and treats. The hands-on experience combined with vast technical knowledge allows us to bring you useful and unique products, as well as dog training and behavior solutions.

Mental Stimulation

Starmark Mental Stimulation toys help keep pets mentally engaged in an activity they enjoy. They help foster natural hunting and foraging behaviors, and help prevent destructive boredom behaviors. These items can be used with Starmark Treats, or with portions from your dog‘s regular meal to turn mealtime into playtime.

As the world leader in pet education for over a decade, our award-winning training and behavior tools are developed by experts and performance tested by thousands of dogs at Starmark Animal Behavior Center.

Our Goal

As the facilitator of world-class education and training programs for dogs and professional dog trainers, we understand how dogs think, play, and learn—this hands-on knowledge makes our products unique. Our goal is simple: keeping pets happy in their homes by improving relationships with their owners.
