I had my pup there for boarding and training l for 2 nights and the staff there were super helpful. I have a 5yo high anxiety German Shepard. I chose to give my pup medication during his stay to be easier on the staff. I felt so reassured for his needs and care during his stay. I got pictures daily and updates on…

My dog Linus goes here for daycare and has done socialization class with Sarah the trainer. We love it. They have been very understanding and willing to work with Linus who is a rescue and has some different reactivity issues in some situations. I also have taken my older dog to scent class and ratting class and he…

We boarded our six month old yellow lab for a week this winter and were very impressed with his care. They have 24 hour staff on-site. He also had one-on-one training with Sarah as well as group training. She is a great instructor who is very knowledgeable.

This place is amazing! I cant say enough great things about this facility and the staff. Our dog is a regular and she LOVES it! They also have a very nice commercial bathing station set up where you can wash your dog and keep your bathroom at home clean. Its very easy to use and convenient. The owners did not cut any corners when they built this place.

Luna is eight months old now, and over those months, we’ve worked with a few different trainers. I’m so happy to say we’ve finally found the perfect match—Sarah at Country Pup Kennels. Sarah’s training style and the way she organizes her classes are some of the best we’ve experienced. She makes sure every handler…

Puppy class was so much fun! Sarah, the trainer, is great! I have a very low drive puppy, and Sarah offered great suggestions to encourage her to be more engaged and active. The facility is amazing, convenient class times, and multiple skill levels offered. Training, boarding, daycare, grooming, and a retail shop…
