There is no better place than Old Salem. We've been taking our dogs there for going on 9-10 years…read more We know they are taken care of and are safe. Todd is amazing with them - all we have to do is tell them they're going to see Todd and they immediately begin to bark, run to the truck, jump in and out and do the same sorts of things when we arrive. It's a bit of a drive for us but well worth it when we pick them up and they're still happy boys. We tried a couple of other kennels with our first two German Shepherds but they just didn't quite measure up - unless Todd closes down (please NO!), he'll continue seeing the Kole dogs on a regular basis. Thank you, Todd, for such an awesome safe place for all the fur babies you've kept over the years! L. Kole

From the owner: Established in 1996, Old Salem Kennel offers a limited, by-appointment-only training program rooted…read morein traditional methods and decades of hands-on experience. We specialize in obedience training, gundog development, and truffle dog work, working with a small number of dogs at a time to ensure focus, consistency, and quality results. Our program is designed for owners who value thoughtful training, long-term development, and a disciplined approach built on trust and follow-through. Because of the individualized nature of our work, availability is limited and placements are intentional. Old Salem Kennel is best suited for those seeking a serious, experience-driven approach rather than quick fixes or bargain training.

I've never had a problem with scheduling and the staff is friendly and enjoy what they do. I'd recommend them!

I imagine the Dawghouse might be a great place to get your dog groomed. It is *not* a good place to…read moreboard your cats, however, as I did several weeks ago. The side room for cats is very small, with too many cat kennels in too small an area. The folks who work here seem friendly; Luke, in particular, was very kind to me and my cats. But the reception desk is in the dog grooming area, and chaos reigned during both my drop-off and pick-up visits, with too many people trying to do too much in too small an area. Super frustrating and inefficient. My cats were boarded at the Dawghouse for 5-6 nights. When I picked them up, the cat room was filthy, smelly, crowded with cats in individual kennels. I was told all cats had a chance to rotate in and out of their kennels for exercise time in the cat room at large. I have no way of knowing if/how this worked, but it seems a hard thing to manage with so many cats of different ages, temperaments, and health situations. At pick-up time, my two little boy cats were obviously stressed, they had lost weight, and their eyes & noses were goopy with upper respiratory infections, which required a trip to the vet. I will need to do a lot of traveling in the next several months, and I will be looking for a new boarding place for my cats.

Our dog literally wants to stay when we come to pick him up- that good! The peace of mind they provide us knowing our fur child is happy & taken care of is invaluable! Thank you so much for being so good to our pups!

They literally saved the life of our rescue cat, Murray, by taking the time to diagnose his problem. He lived to the age of 19. Our old dog Topper was cared for by Mars Hill until we had to let him go at 15. We currently have a 9 year old Aussie. When we were in North Carolina this fall, he developed a cough during the "mystery" dog disease scare. We drove back to GA to take him to Mars Hill. All that said, they are the most caring and knowledgeable vet group and we highly recommend them.

I think the care my cat and dog received here seemed okay enough…read more That said, there were too many times where the staff was snarky or rude or unprofessional. It's not that they make mistakes, it's that they blame and argue. They deflect their responsibility. They don't seem to understand they can be calm, polite, apologize, and move forward. I've been going to this vet for over five years, and periodically one of the staff would just be really unprofessional in their snark. For example, one staff member argued with me for about ten minutes about the age of my cat. Why? Why argue? It was SO ODD. I did not understand why this was the hill she wanted to die on. The receptionist kept insisting my cat was younger than she was. Over and over and over. THEN, I guess the receptionist finally decided to believe me, and she pivoted to insisting that *I'd* put down the wrong birthday, and that's why she had the wrong age. (ARGUE... then BLAME.) I went along with this theory in hopes we could just move forward in the conversation. But I guess the receptionist had a bone to pick and put me on hold to check the initial visit record. She was right fighting. It was needlessly exhausting. Turns out *they* entered the wrong info into their system. It was their mistake all along. So they wasted time, caused undue stress, and blamed the client rather than, say, calmly update the record and MOVE ON. Like a polite, rational person would. That's one of many, many examples. I'd never asked to speak to the manager before, I'd never called them out on their BS. But after YET ANOTHER MISTAKE, I finally asked to speak to the manager. I just wanted them to apologize and to get things rectified. But the manager didn't want to take responsibility. Their staff had dropped the ball, and the manager's attitude was, "well, IF that happened..." This was the proverbial last straw. It *did* happen. The staff member did drop the ball. I don't need to add gaslighting to snark and blame in these interactions. I wish they'd just apologize and MOVE ON. Just be professional. No need to deflect and argue because you made a mistake. If I were one of the veterinarians, I'd be MORTIFIED that my staff was acting this way. The care here is not fantastic enough for these draining interactions.
