Don't know why I've waited so long but here is my review. I totally recommend Dairydell. We've…read moreused for our last two dogs. We did two weeks of board&train and it is absolutely well worth it. They have a carefully, time-tested program and have hired and trained their staff to work within it to ensure a consistent message to the dogs. They then train YOU in sessions held after each week so you do the SAME process. They assign a trainer that focuses on your dog. The trainer can them work with you and explain your dog's idiosyncrasies to you! Our dogs took to the training. They don't become perfect dogs because WE humans are really bad at follow-through and consistency but they are so much better having been through the training. Our English Springer Spaniel became a gem on a leash and walking her became a breeze!! No mean feat when a squirrel crossing our path would cause her to bolt and drag me to the ground. We took her to a refresher stay after a few years. They told us when we picked her up that she was a gem and that WE needed to be more consistent. Yes, I am still working on that with the second dog who is better trained than I am at this point.

Camilla, I read your…read moreresponse to my review. The pinch collar was given to me on the follow up one on one training, and yes, your trainer used treats quite a bit. Perhaps you were unaware that your trainers used these methods? Regardless, I've found a better solution for Coco and I. Thanks for the offer. Dirk

The most wonderful, caring place to leave your sweet dog. We started bringing our dog, Elsie,…read moreseveral years ago, who did not like people or strangers at all. Somehow, the atmosphere and staff made her feel welcome and safe. She loved going, and was treated like a doggy princess from day one. They cared for her as she continued to age. And took particularly excellent care of her as she became mobility challenged. Right up to the end. Forever grateful for the staff and loving care.

I know puppies can be difficult to groom, but Briana seemed to know how to deal with Miso. The grooming took only 1 hour and a half which is much less stress for my puppy.

I have been taking my dog Jasper to Moon Doggy Daycare for over a year now and I absolutely love…read morethe quality of care he receives. Moon Doggy is a cage free environment located in a country setting. Most evenings when I go to pick him up he is inside with the entire family either laying on a dog bed, couch or cuddling with the girls. I love the level of care and play time he gets at " Doggy Disneyland" as I usually call it. When I drop him off the other dogs line up to check out who's arrived to play with. I just love it!

They give you a contract that says " your dog may get lost" " and may get foxtails" wow!! When i read that i laughed as if it were a joke! Foxtails ? My dog possible getting lost? What are these people thinking!!!! When i addressed this the women said there fences are not high enough to keep the dogs in if they were to see a rabbit and want to chase it. They also leave the dogs outside with foxtails and chance of getting lost of a period of time while they are " cleaning" the house...do not take your dog here! Unless you want your dog getting lost and possibly getting a foxtail which is lethal to dogs! What a joke of a place.

This is a great example of an organization where one hand doesn't talk to the other. The level of…read morenon communication is pretty astounding. I called Fit N Furry to talk to them about boarding my cats. I received a text message back from Bailey and we had a text conversation, and got a tour set up. On the day of the tour, I called the center just to confirm and they had no idea what I was talking about. I was told there was no one there that would be able to give me a tour. The person on the tour scheduled me for a tour weeks away. I texted the original number back and asked what had happened. I actually asked them if they were human, because I'd had experiences before of AIs just not forwarding information to a human. But I was assured, via text, that I was speaking to a human and that they were sorry and their manager would reach out shortly. (To this day no one has reached out.) Weeks went by and I went in for my rescheduled tour. I walk in and they had no record of a tour but they would be happy to show me around. Just fill out this form. I filled out the form. The person at the desk looks at my form and goes "oh, your cats are too old to board here." Excuse me? After all this, my cats are ineligible anyway? At this point I had spent 3 hours in the car and who knows how long on the phone and text with them, getting at this sorted out. If this is the level of organization that is visible from the outside, I shudder to think what the behind-the-scenes organization looks like.

Super professional, our first day was a trial run and she got a report card telling us her behavior traits and such around other dogs. She got an over all B+ which allowed us bring her into day care and over night stays. Supper important when you go on vacation and need someone to board your doggie. They also have fun events for dogs like pool parties, holiday pictures. Always keeping in touch with what she has been up too. Always happy to give us updates when we call .... I highly recommend this place. Better than dropping of your pet with a friend or neighbor, as your pet is in good hands and is completely safe!

Every time my dog stays with her, I know he's in the best hands--he gets plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. Alexis goes above and beyond to make sure he feels comfortable, happy, and loved. I can always tell how much fun he has because he comes home relaxed and content. It gives me such peace of mind knowing that while I'm away, my dog isn't just being looked after--he's being cared for with the same heart and dedication that I would give. I'm so grateful to have found Alexis and can't recommend her enough to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pup like family.

From our first meeting and throughout all our training sessions, the staff at K9 was super helpful, patient and thorough. Our first meeting was an assessment with Alicia. She was friendly and kind when meeting us and our puppy. The entire front office staff was also super helpful in scheduling our assessment and the following training appointments. They worked together perfectly to help keep us on course with all our training and follow-up information. After we decided to enroll our puppy in training, the training staff (Kobie, Ashley, Sophie and Geraldine) were fantastic!! They worked closely with us to slowly train Raider. He was introduced to other dogs, learned to heel perfectly on a leash, obey commands, come on command, and sit patiently every time we stop walking. These trainers are truly exceptional! We have heard many times how incredibly well-trained our dog is. Again, we would highly recommend K9 Activity Club and Lodge.

Thankfully they were able to accommodate. At drop off I was told that I would be sent pictures and updates, and that I could text or call them if needed. I never got any updates, nor a response to my message to them. Upon pickup, I was told that my dog did well and that I would get a report card and pictures of her stay. I didn't receive either. The apparent lack organization/reliability doesn't make me feel comfortable trusting my dog in their care. To top it off, my dog has had terrible diarrhea since staying there. Really wanted to like this place so pretty disappointed :/ Update: She still has diarrhea and have now seen reviews from others who's dogs have contracted Giardia here. Let's hope that's not the case
