Prior to this event, I had used this kennel on several occasions without a problem. ORIGINAL REVIEW: Never again! First off, I found out they do not check on the animals outside of business hours.

This is what I was told by staff of the Kennel.

My 6 year old border collie had always been a nervous dog and did not like strangers around her…read more She would nip at people without warning, so we did not take her anywhere. Even though our family was pretty social, she was never part of our social life. When people came over, we put her in a locked room. She rarely went in the car anyplace, and going to the vet was a nightmare. Last summer, I turned Aubrey's world upside down. I got married and moved into a new house. This household included another dog and a special needs 26 year old. The first few weeks were stressful. Aubrey was very anxious and my stepson did not read her cues. There were a few bite incidents and nobody could relax. I didn't know what to do and thought I would have to surrender my dog. I looked online and saw Kasten's Dog Training, which I knew to be close to my new house in Elkhart. I truly doubted that anyone could help my six year old dog. I called and scheduled an online interview. I remember feeling very optimistic after that first phone call. Right away, I felt like there was someone who understood what we were going through, and was going to help me keep my dog. I had nothing much to lose, so I signed her up! Aubrey participated in Program 5- Behavioral Modification for Aggressive Dogs and Dogs with a Bite History. She spent 21 days at Kasten's split into two sessions. After the first 9 days, I came to pick her up and immediately noticed a difference in her demeanor. She completed the second half of her training right before Christmas. When my son came home college, he was shocked to see how much better she was behaving. She had a new confidence and was no longer so anxious. She was a treat to take on walks and we didn't have to worry about her darting out the door anytime it opened. We have taken Aubrey to Kasten's for boarding several times in the past year. Being able to board her, and know she is safe, has been such a blessing. The fact that she was receiving refreshers as she stayed there was an added bonus. Before coming to Kasten's, I never would have even thought that I could board her anywhere. The trainers at Kasten's were so helpful and did such a great job with Aubrey. They worked tirelessly with her, and I could see the extra effort that they put in to get her to feel more comfortable, and eventually enjoy training sessions. Kasten's Dog Training has improved our family's life. We can now enjoy our active social lives and include Aubrey. She jumps happily into her kennel when told, walks on a leash like a show dog and even goes on trips to the hardware store several times a month. She and my stepson have a mutual understanding, and both of them feel much safer around each other. Making that phone call to Kasten's was truly one of the best decisions that I have ever made. Thank you to everyone at Kasten's - you have made such a difference in our lives!

They have a good routine down during her visits, and I really love that she will send a couple pics and a text update of the visit when she's done. Highly recommend, and I'm pretty picky!

As far as we could tell they were the only dogs she was caring for at the time. We arrived earlier than expected and were told we could not pickup our dogs. She refused to release them to us finally saying "in the condition" they were in, her professionalism would not allow it. Upon further questioning she told us they "soiled on themselves" and she needed time to clean them up. WHAT??? Our dogs are highly intelligent working dogs, used to traveling, being in new places & situations. I insisted I see them and discovered she kept them in a dark garage in crates for the entire time they were with her. She complained they barked... well YA! They had to go to the bathroom! We have since been boarding our dogs with a local vet clinic. They love it there where they have an indoor area and attached outdoor run with regular interaction with the staff during the day. They have NEVER soiled themselves anywhere, before or after our experience with not so Classie Lassie.
