Our consult was with Nance, and she was very patient in explaining the process and talking us through some initial things that we were struggling with. Then, we started with a training package that included 3 private training classes and 2 months of group obedience classes. We also went to a few puppy kindergarten classes. Nicole did the majority of our trainings and she has been a god-sent. She is very good with the dogs, and her energy level makes the training classes fun both for us and our dog. We learned a lot from Nicole and she helped us to feel a lot less stressed out and actually enjoy the puppyhood. The obedience class is set up like a monthly subscription, where you can go to as many classes as you want. We end up going about 3-4 times a week for 30 minutes, as it is a great activity to mentally exercise our dog and provide socialization while working alongside other dogs. We also started bringing our dog to their dog day camp 2x a week. Tim was also very patient in explaining the process. The dog day camp has been great in getting her to play with other dogs and allows her to learn obedience from others aside from us.

The pricing for both day and night boarding is incredibly reasonable especially with how well taken care of I know he is. We owe so much to Champion Kennels and can not say enough positive things about them!

I've been debating whether to share my experience at Country Dogs. I'm not typically a…read moreconfrontational person, and I usually avoid posting negative reviews because I feel for the staff working at places with bad reviews. However, I wish I'd known more about other people's negative experiences with Country Dogs before going through my own. So, as you read this (admittedly long and frustrated) review, please know it's not meant to be disrespectful--just informative for other dog parents about my experience with Country Dogs. My dog, Boon, is an Australian Shepherd--a high-energy breed. He would go to daycare about twice a week because crating him for 8+ hours while my fiancé and I worked wasn't ideal. He's a young, active dog, and without stimulation, he'd have way too much pent-up energy. My fiancé's work schedule usually allows him home on the other days to keep Boon occupied. In August 2024, I dropped Boon, off at Country Dogs around 7 a.m. Everything seemed normal. When I picked him up at 4 p.m., the staff didn't mention anything unusual, handed me his leash, and we headed home. Usually, after daycare, Boon is full of energy/excitement --rubbing his face all over the back seat and sprinting to his water bowl when we get home because he plays hard and forgets to hydrate. That day was different. He didn't rub his face, which I thought was odd, but I figured he was just extra tired from playing. When we got home, I let him out of the car. He jumped down but stumbled, landing awkwardly. My heart sank. Boon is extremely athletic and only 1.5 years old, so this was alarming. Then, as I watched him struggle up the stairs, I knew something was wrong. Inside, he limped to his water bowl and I noticed blood on the floor near his back leg. It wasn't much, but where was it coming from? I frantically checked his paws, ears, and mouth but saw nothing. Then, as I petted him to find the source, I found two puncture wounds on his inner thigh--and then two more on the outer thigh. I called my fiancé in a panic, sending him pictures, and he suggested calling the daycare to see if they could explain what happened. After several attempts to reach them, the daycare called back. I stayed calm, avoiding accusations, and just asked if anything had happened. They admitted there had been an incident with another dog earlier that morning but claimed they checked Boon for injuries and didn't see anything. While I appreciated their honesty, it was frustrating that they hadn't notified me of the incident at pick-up. We brought Boon to the emergency vet. He had four puncture wounds--likely from a bite--and needed sedation, shaving (which is not ideal for an Aussie), and cleaning to properly treat the injuries. The total vet bill came to about $1,500. While it could have been worse, we were heartbroken and angry about what had happened.  After some deliberation, we decided not to ask Country Dogs to cover the vet bill. Instead, we requested a refund for the unused $520 daycare package since we no longer felt comfortable sending Boon there. My fiancé called and left a message, but the staff member responsible for Boon that day happened to pick up. She was sweet and apologetic, expressing genuine concern for Boon, which we appreciated. She said she'd pass along our request to the owner. The owner responded via email, saying they don't have a refund policy and that "dogs will be dogs," but wished Boon a speedy recovery. We replied, explaining that our frustration wasn't just about the incident but the lack of communication. Even if they didn't notice injuries initially, they should've informed us about the altercation so we could check him ourselves. We never received a response to this follow-up. We decided to switch daycares and found an amazing alternative: Fenway Bark. While it's slightly more expensive, it's worth every penny. They have structured "school" activities, themed events, private walks (for an extra cost), and even holiday goodie bags (for free). Boon loves it there, and we feel so much more at ease. I later found out from coworkers and friends that others have had similar experiences with Country Dogs. While the staff are friendly and the hours are convenient, I encourage other dog parents to do thorough research before choosing a daycare. My intent isn't to bash Country Dogs but to share our story so others can make an informed decision. For us, switching to Fenway Bark has made all the difference, and I can't recommend them enough!

Our team of certified professional dog trainers work hard to create custom programs that fit every dog, and every budget; from private training lessons to boarding and training. Most of us lead pretty hectic lives, work long hours, have numerous commitments, and often don’t have extra time to devote to the hundreds of repetitions and 24/7 accountability that successful dog training requires. You would much rather be spending the time you do have exploring, having fun, making memories, or relaxing with your canine best friend! That’s where our Board and Train dog training services come in. Our trainers will create a unique training program to fit you and your dog's specific needs to achieve the training goals. All travel, treats, care, training, tools, and lifetime guarantee of communication with your assigned trainer is included in each of our programs. At the end of training, your trainer will return the dog back to you where they will not only teach you everything your dog has newly learned, but also how to continue with training in everyday aspects within your own home. Our motivation is to see you communicate, connect, and thrive with your dog!
