The upstairs seating area looks like a 1980's cafeteria with extremely old carpet. The facility needs a serious uplift to modernize the look, but also provide better gear and facilities. I hear great things about the competitors that have won big awards for various competitions, but the facility is no putting money back into itself.

We brought our two dogs here for the first time last weekend as a trial run for our upcoming…read morevacation. We first did a tour of the facilities, and found them to be very clean and well run. When we walked in, there were not dogs barking wildly at one another as we have seen at other kennels. Each kennel has solid sides so they don't feel threatened by other dogs nearby. The dogs have their own run that during the day the door is lifted so they can go outside. We put our dogs together in one kennel and the owner will separate them during feeding time, so that one is not stealing food or causing problems with the other one. A nice touch! The dogs also will not interact with other dogs during their stay, which is good for us, as one of our dogs does not do well with others. Don is the owner and is very nice and soft-spoken. He seems to have a very gentle way about him. On the phone, he may sound a little standoffish, but when you meet him in person, you realize that it is only his soft-spokeness and he is very friendly. My dogs who are normally anxious around new people did not seem to have that reaction with him at all. Prices are extremely reasonable. Bring your own blankets or dog beds as separate ones are not provided. They do offer additional services such as baths for an additional fee during the dog's stay. Our dogs left there calm, and not stressed at all. I feel extremely comfortable bringing them back for a week during our vacation as I know, they will be in good hands.

We adopted Monty this fall. He's a medium sized dog about two years old. Right out of the shelter,…read morehe was really "mouthy" and didn't have any doggie manners, plus he has a Very High prey drive. I was pretty nervous to start boarding him, just because of his behavioral issues. Well I'm so glad we tried Shangri-La Kennels! Monty has been there several times now, and we honestly won't go any other place. The owner Don is kind, he really knows dogs, and he runs a clean & safe kennel. He's been flexible and understanding when changes happen in our schedule (we even did an emergency drop-off once without calling ahead). Thank you to Don and Shangri-La Kennels -- not only do you make our lives easier, but Monty loves visiting you. We will be back, for sure. (By the way, Monty doing great. He's settling right in with us and getting to be a better boy every day.)

Our pup Dolly is a rescue puppy. She was about 14 weeks old when we got her. Katie came and did an…read moreevaluation within a week and determined a path of training for Dolly who was timid and afraid of noises, afraid to leave our side and needed a lot of direction and attention. Using Katie's techniques and positive rewards in just 6 weeks Dolly is a different pup. She is inquisitive, playful and obedient. She loves the 'games' Katie has introduced and doesn't realize she is learning while playing. She even files her own nails. I would heartily recommend Katie and Empathy over Ego to anyone with a new pup they want to start out on the right path or even a mature dog that needs a little retraining. Thank you Katie.

Katie has helped make training fun and engaging, as well as extremely educational. It is clear how much experience Katie brings to the table, but she really individualizes each session to your dog's needs---all while holding space for the human members of the family and any challenges that come up. She even sends detailed notes after each session with additional resources, and they are so helpful to refer back to and mark progress. I wholeheartedly recommend her services to help the whole family strengthen their communication skills, and have more fun while along the way!

This camp overworks the young counselors and pays horribly for the amount of work and…read moreresponsibility they place on their shoulders. The parents are paying so much money and they exploit their counselors and pay them next to nothing and do....what with the rest? There was a Typhoid exposure with a kitchen worker this year and they covered it up and didn't tell the parents or anyone at camp about it until the CDC was alerted to this exposure (most likely from wherever he sought medical care) and came to inspect the camp - which the camp failed on almost all areas. They were given a certain amount of time to get it together and make the camp safe before they were going to take action and shut it down. One of the young counselors (17 years old) had an allergic reaction and their supervisor tried to make them still work instead of resting and recuperating from said allergic reaction. The administration would work the counselors like they weren't even humans. Overall, the camp's conduct and the way they treat the counselors is totally unsafe - which is also unsafe for the campers. It sounds like it used to be a nice camp, but not under the current administration.

She talks about it all the time! She says she loves the camp because she made a bunch of really great friends there, found that she loves horseback riding and sailing, and loves the experience of having time away from her everyday life. I love that these girls get to relax without the pressure of their everyday peer group and screens! She is there for weeks in a rustic environment without electronics and no complaints. Plus she says the food is great. It is a beautiful camp that we feel fortunate to have the opportunity to attend each summer for as long as possible.

Dr Catherine Sanders took over Taylor Brook last fall, 2009. I don't know what it was like before,…read morebut I DO know that the best vet I have ever had is Dr. Sanders. I have 4 dogs, have had cats and something is always going awry with them. Dr. Sanders is not only professional, funny, and congenial, but she is super-smart...smart enough to also say she's not sure when she isn't, which is so refreshing. Her approach is education-centered, so you never feel like there's only one option, even if there is only one option. Her practice is not based on squeezing the customer, but the animal in front of her. I also know that her staff is fantastic...they came with her from her last practice, and I can tell you that staff and techs can make or break a practice. Hers make it. If you live within a few hours of Taylor Brook, go to Dr. Sanders. You'll be embarrassed you took your animal friends anywhere else!
