    We love Meadowpond! We have used them many times. This kennel is super cute! The rates are good!…read moreThe rooms are large, clean, and well kept. The anytime drop off & pick up is super easy. Our dog ( a 65 lb wirehaired Viszla ) is comfy & cozy here with lots of space to visit and play with other pups. Megan and her crew are compassionate and caring. They handle food and meds with ease and accuracy. They respond quickly to emails. They are always friendly and best of all, they treat our boy well! New to the area, our vet recommended Meadowpond to us a year ago and we are so glad she did!

    We were looking for a place to board our dogs for a night or two while we visited Charlevoix in…read moreorder to enjoy the city without having to worry about them. I had contacted a facility closer to Charlevoix, but they wouldn't accept our dogs because they are pitbull mixes, and they recommended Meadowpond to us. I immediately requested a reservation on Meadowpond's website because any business that doesn't discriminate against our friendly pups deserves our business and support :) Anyway, the reservation process was super simple. You fill out the information on their site, and they called me about the reservation that week because we requested the reservation a month before our trip. They answered all my questions about how everything works with it being a 24/7 facility, and quickly got our dogs set up for their upcoming reservaton. Drop off was a little confusing because I didn't realize that there were two codes - one for the door into the facility and a different one for the code to their actual room. However, once that was figured out, they were in the room and ready to go in no time. They are able to share a room, and it is a good size for both dogs (45 and 55 pounds). The room also has a dog door so they could go to a private outdoor area to go to the bathroom or be outside whenever they wanted. We got to see pictures of the dogs on their FB page which was nice to know they were having fun and enjoying their time there. You are able to pick your dog up at any time during their stay, so the checkout process was as easy as us accessing the room with the code, gathering their belongings, and taking them out to the car. It was a breeze, so much so that I never even had to talk to anyone in person at the building. If we need to board our dogs in the area again, we'll definitely come back to Meadowpond!

    We purchased a black and tan male German Shepherd from Browning Haus German Shepherds. At pickup (9…read moreweeks old), he weighed only 8 pounds, which is significantly underweight for that age. He also had blood in his urine and had to go on antibiotics 3 times. We were not aware at the time that this could indicate a serious issue. At his 3-month veterinary checkup, he was still only 8 pounds and was diagnosed with dwarfism. He has since been diagnosed with hypothyroidism and has very significant skin and fur issues. He is over 1 year old now and weighs 29 lbs. This was very upsetting, and we contacted the breeder. She did offer to take him back, but we chose to keep him knowing he would likely have a shorter lifespan, and the decision to return him would have been extremely difficult as we were already attached to him. His life span is estimated at 2-5 years and we want to offer him the best life possible. We instead agreed on a discount toward a future puppy. However, communication after that became confusing. Different potential replacement puppies and mothers were mentioned at different times, and it was difficult to get clear, consistent information. When it came time to move forward, the pricing also changed from what we originally discussed,, it was increased by $500.00 and we were never able to finalize a replacement puppy. We were told we would be contacted when a new litter was available, and the business owner continually failed to reach out to us, despite seeing litters on their website and a sale on AKC website. While we love our dog and appreciate that a return was offered, the experience left us feeling that communication and clarity around health expectations and replacement agreements were disappointing and inadequate. I would do research on dwarfism, especially with German Shepards. The data suggests these issues could stem from unethical breeding practices. I believe the owner knew about his genetic defect and chose to hide that information in order to make a sale.

    Got our pup from here 2 years ago. He is a good boy. No health problems as advertised. He is 91…read morepounds.
