The dogs there bark constantly and they literally never stop. Work in the area and never see them outside. Maybe they go out a half an hour a day? I wanted to shoot myself after working In the area for a week hearing 20 dogs barking non-stop, for hours and hours and hours and hours. Been to kennels before and its not exactly how its supposed to be AT ALL. Horrifying. Idk what most peoples standards are, but maybe try going by there and listening sometime for a few hours anytime of day. Doesnt matter what time it is. If a dog can die of stress it will from the ENDLESS torture of all

11/10 place! I love the friend and family feel that Irene and her gang gives you when you walk in leaving your dog. They take great care and at an awesome price! You have the ability to customize how they can care for your dog by choosing either walks or dog play and even offer bathing! I was blown out of the water by their customer service when I called on Memorial Day because I got in a day earlier from my vacation. I not only received a call back, but Irene bathed my dog and let me pick her up a day early. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a boarding place for their dog and I will
