If I had done my research on Duck Buster Kennels and the owners prior to making a committment to a…read moreSummer spent there, I would've never gone there. I'm sharing my factual and truthful experience in hopes that others won't be hurt, dogs getting sick and puppies dying. The following I would pass a polygragh test on every line item. If anyone, like K.R. that placed a negative review regarding this business on Yelp, reads this and desires to reach out to me, please do at jana@loveslabradors.net. Dear K.R. I felt so sorry for you on that day you picked up Gus. I was the lady that was there with tears running down her cheeks getting your dog for you at Duck Buster Kennels in Emmett, Idaho.. I was told on the phone by Louise to not inform you at all in what was going on with a threatening voice from her. #6 pup had just died in my arms from Parvo 30 minutes prior to you showing up at their place. When I heard you outside and calling out, I realized once again I was the only one there. The last thing I wanted to be doing then was to be dealing with one of their boarding dogs. There has been a long investigation going on by both Animal Control in Emmett, Captain Dave Timony and Investigator McIntosh with the Sheriff's Dept. I wish I had looked them up on Google prior to going out to their place for the Summer. I would've seen negative comments on refugeforums.com that there were history of past diseases killing litters of pups and Danny not taking on any accountability. Anyone questioning this, feel free to look up on refugeforums.com and place into search Duck Busters Idaho and you will see comments telling people to run the other way and the reasons why. In April 2017, I made a deal with Danny that I could come there for the Summer. We would work out the work in trade deal once I got there. In the beginning I was training with him and having some laughs. After a month I had bred 5 of my girls there and as well, made a deal to handle the cleaning of the kennel runs while residing there and living in an apartment next to kennels to use as a whelping room. Danny knew I was heading there to handle breeding some of my girls and handle a few litters while residing there thru the Summer til Sept. Thank God I took over the cleaning of the kennels. They were filthy and they did not believe in sanitizing everyday, every wash, or at all. Danny said he weekly would bleach the water buckets but that was it. I saw to it that everyday they were sanitized. I've included photos of the wash out from the pens that would collect to the sides of the pens and just sit there! In August, the amount of flies from the sitting poop was immense! End of May there was an outbreak of a canine influenza. Cough with many and then @6 of them had it so bad it turned into pneumomia like symptoms with fluid in lungs and temps. I would take that as one of the Canine Influenzas and not just Bordatella. They didn't inform anyone around them including boarders there was an outbreak there. Mid June a few of my young pups came down with Parvo. They said I was lying they had Parvo and I went to their Vet. Louise was sitting there when she heard her Vet say it was Parvo. They should've informed me ahead of time they had diseases there before and lost litters there before. They did not disclose this to me prior to me going to their kennel and for a Summer spent there. But I saw them not disclose issues to the boarders and most around them. They acted like it was no big deal in what I was going thru. He went to competitions and training with other people after his dogs on truck, trailer and kennel were exposed to the Parvo. Danny also would allow the dogs on the truck suffer to the heat 24/7 when it as 95 to 110 degrees outside. Beware everyone! These people are liars!! Look up on refugeforums.com and see the reviews there that others had lost a litter of pups and no accountability from Danny. The crowd that works there are WORKING prostitutes, recovering druggies and people heavily affiliated with a local gang. If asked to go thru a polygragh test, I would pass.

My Dane use to have issues with other dogs, but after his first time at Stayners (which was free), I bought a package and my Dane has no issues with other dogs now . The fake turf yard is amazingly huge. They have multiple yards I.e.- a ball yard, small dog yard, assertive dog yards, and introductory kennels. They have over the top friendly staff, which 2 staffers, are always watching the dogs with spray bottles. They have a covered area for dogs to cool of under and every other hour they take my Dane in to relax. I highly recommend this doggie camp!!

We decided to cash in on his board and care holiday program promo and we dropped off our dogs for training. Three weeks later and they have progressed SO much! This was a godsend for us because we were on the verge of having to possibly give up our dogs. Now, the dogs have the education and we have the tools to move forward and raise good dogs. The daunting task of moving states, remodeling a home, getting 3 small children settled in and looking for a job became barriers for us in not being able to train our dogs while they were smaller. They are 2 massive dogs in size and attitude and we have 3 small children so without the excellent training they received we may not have them anymore. I HIGHLY recommend the investment and think all big dog owners should have Tom & Fam train their dogs for atleast a week! It's a life changer for you and your dog!

My dogs were always happy to get there and when I came to pick them up. Unfortunately I lost both dogs this spring. Fortunately, I was blessed to get a new puppy and we were welcomed back by the whole crew at Dogtopia once he had all his shots. He enjoyed the environment and I got his puppy report card and picture for his first day at school! I checked in on him on the webcams, like a nervous mom would, and saw him holding back to test the waters and then joined in play. The dogs were kenneled for a time to settle so they don't get crazy and aggressive from being so tired. We picked our boy up and he was so happy to see us he crowed! Lol! He slept most of the rest of the day, which is the blessing of daycare! I know some people don't understand the point of daycare for dogs but I do. I won't be bringing him every day, but occasionally to play and socialize is such a wonderful thing for them! Thanks!

I brought him in on 7/11 got his worms cleared up. Was charged $120ish. After that my kitten who is strictly indoors only developed a URI ( upper respiratory infection) I can only think he got it from there. When I realized it wasn't getting better I brought him in on 7/21.....only 10 days later. I brought in my kitten and he was prescribed meds. The tech came in and said it was $105.... Another $100 10 day later. Due to a "progress" fee. Soo the original physical was $90 and the progress was $80. I asked for some leniency because it had only been a week and a half since I was there last. The tech said she talked to my original doctor and another who said no.... I don't see how is this fair. I'd even be ok with a discounted progress fee, but the full amount is a bit much to me for it only being 10 days later. I will be bringing any future issues I have with my other animals somewhere else.
