Silverbrook Kennels

We boarded our TWO rescue German shepherds. One had a very rough start in life before we got her…read moreand she was absolutely terrified. The other we recently rescued and are still getting to know. This facility was clean, friendly, affordable and took excellent care of our babies. They got the extra play time, and they bathed them. They worked with our scared dog despite her attitude. When we picked them up three days later we brought home two healthy, happy, clean, well taken care of dogs. We will be recommending to everyone, including both rescue groups. Thank you!

We reserved Silverbrook Kennels for our boarding choice while going on vacation for a few days. The…read moreentire process was easy and the staff are all very friendly. I originally called and wanted to walk the facility to see what the kennel looked like to ensure I was comfortable with boarding my pups there. The facility appeared to be clean and up kept. We were not allowed to see the inside of the facilities but the staff were accommodating in sending us pictures so we could see. During my pups stay, we did not receive any phone calls or updates so we assumed they were happy and healthy. I would say that would be the only thing if we would receive updates via text or email that would have made me feel more assured but overall we were really happy with the process. Our dogs returned to us happy and didn't seem stressed whatsoever. We would definitely bring them back again. Thank you!!!

Friendly staff, always seem to be available at last minute, facilitate clean and well kept, and grooming services available for an extra fee. AND a Veterans and First Responders discount offered! WIN WIN WIN!

After posting my reviews, I received a phone call from one of the trainers apologizing for not…read moreresponding to my inquiry. She was very kind and explained a mix up regarding emails with the owner. No big deal; these things happen. I appreciated her apology. She did inform me that they do not train in the kind of scent work I am looking for, and she sadly doesn't know anyone near my location who does. My only suggestion would be for the owner, since they are the ones who receive the emails. It might be best to respond to the customer in an email and state something to the effect of, "Colonial K9 has received your request and we will be forwarding your message to the respective trainer. Please let us know if a trainer has not gotten in contact with you in the next 48/72 hours." This way the customer knows their email has been seen and read. Otherwise, the customer feels their request wasn't taken seriously. Additionally, a reminder message or task could be created within the Microsoft 360 platform and be sent to the trainers. Just some ideas to help the customers and trainer so a customer isn't lost due to mistakes. Thank you again for the apology. It is appreciated. I have bumped my review up from two stars to fours stars. **Original Review** ***I have not used their services***This is only a review based on communication, or lack thereof*** On 08MAY2024, I called Colonial K9 to inquire about dog training; specifically scent work. I have been looking for a solid trainer since moving here. It has not been easy finding a reputable trainer. During the phone call, I was told to send an email because emails go straight to the owner. The owner will review the email and either respond personally, or the owner will send the email to the respective trainer. I thanked the person who I spoke with and promptly sent an email detailing my dog training needs. By 15MAY2024, I still hadn't received a response from Colonial K9. As a result, I sent another email and stated; "I am following up from my attached email as I have not received a response. If you are unable to help us, it's understandable. I would appreciate it if you could give us a referral on a trainer who can help." As of today, 24MAY2024, I have yet to receive a response. I am not sure where the disconnect is. All I want to do is find a solid trainer to continue with scent work training. I guess Colonial K9 isn't interested in assisting. Copy that!

We got our puppy from them in May 2024. We were able to meet the parents of our puppy and see the…read moresiblings also. Everything was extremely clean. All the dogs seemed healthy and happy and well taken care of. My dog is almost a year and a half old now and is completely healthy, at a good weight, and so far there are no problems. I would highly recommend this business. In fact, I have recommended a couple people to them already. Some of the older reviews say they only accept cash or check however we paid by debit card in 2024 so apparently that's a recent change. We got our questions answered easily before and after the transaction they've always seemed available by text if we had a question in the early puppy days since we didn't know what we were doing! If we ever decide on another golden retriever, I won't look anywhere else. Great place!

Cash or check ONLY!…read more I worked in a kennel when I was in high school so I am very particular when I look to board my dogs. This place was clean and well maintained. The staff was friendly and the price was right. They also offer exit baths and grooming for an extra charge. If you blink you will miss the turn. They are set back a bit but they have added signs to direct you to the location. We are very pleased and will definitely use them again. The only problem we had was that they only accept cash or check. We didn't know that beforehand so I had to run back out another 20 minutes to find an ATM. I didn't even think to ask that ahead of time because in this day in age you would think that everybody would accept a card. Knowing that next time we will bring cash! FYI if you pay with check it's more expensive so bring your cash.

We took our dog here 2 times. Once for a bath, hair cut, nails cut, etc. when we picked him up they…read morehadn't cut his hair at all.. I was a little confused so then I took my dog back a second time for the same package and they still didn't cut his hair.. I'm giving 3 stars because we did leave him there when we went out of town for a week and they were able to get us in on short notice. We asked for our dog to get a bath and cut the day of today before we picked him up and they still didn't find time to do the cut.. I'm not sure what's going on. He's a 10lb Bichon so I can't see the struggle lol Update: We took him to PetCo and Jody did a fantastic job. We finally got to see what our scraggly little rescue dog looked like under his mess of hair! Definitely going back to PetCo for his grooming needs!

Very disappointed in the new ownership. We have taken our dogs there for the last 10 years and…read moreoverall the service was decent. however, they are trying to raise their prices, but they're not being upfront. you used to do boarding for a flat fee which included play times and feeding them in a nightly stroll before they go to bed. The rates have not changed except you now have to pay for play time and bathroom breaks. which frankly is a little inhumane. if you purchased five or 10 packs for daycare there now charging you an additional dollar for pet care which really doesn't make any sense. It should be a standard fee included in the cost. I think I'm gonna take my $2000 to $4000 a year out of Countryside and move it to Indian Bridge. Staff has become a little disrespectful to the customers
