Karry took wonderful care of our Beagle Buster. Buster made lots of dog friends while there, and loved the huge area for running around. He was clean and healthy and happy after the week stay.

Both me and my dog love ACPC for many reasons. First being that my dog is able to be social and run free, if I wanted to leave him in a kennel all day he could be left at home. We are greeted when we arrive, and are able to discuss how everything went when we leave, as well as get tips on his behavior. By the time I pick him up he is thoroughly exhausted and happy, tongue lolling out to the side with a smile on his face. Second, the owner is also our trainer, so I know when my dog is there he is not getting away with any bad behavior and is expected to behave as he would in my house. The prices are very reasonable and the times are convenient as well. I also love that the dogs are able to curl up inside by the woodstove and relax rather than being exposed to the elements all day every day. The day care has helped my dog become socialized and work through his fear aggression, and I know that he is in professional hands when greeting new dogs. My dog also follows a special diet, and it is comforting to know those needs are being met while staying with ACPC. With other kennels my dog has come back with digestive issues from being exposed to the wrong foods, etc. The owner takes care to acknowledge special needs of you and your pet. ACPC's training is phenomenal as well. Not only does Karry come to us, but she works individually based on our needs, rather than simply following the Basic Obedience Guidelines. My dog came to me with a number of anxieties and problems being a rescue and we have successfully worked through them. The owner is very knowledgeable and patient, and we always talk everything through so I know what we are going to do before we do it. As far as training collars go, we discuss the benefits and needs for each of them, if needed, before using them. Both me and my dog are trained on how to properly use the collars so that that are not misused. Ultimately, I have the option to use them or not, and when it comes to day care they are not used without my consent. Overall I would not choose any other place to train or board my dog. I couldn't ask for better care!

Awesome!! Loved how easy it was to drop the pup off and go! My pup has severe separation anxiety issues so when I heard her barking when I walked away I felt like the worst pet parent on the face of the planet but when I picked her up two days later she was such a happy lil camper I won't feel guilty about dropping her off ever again. She slept all day because she was so worn out from playing with the other pups and whenever I'd call to check on her while I was gone I got total updates including if she was eating ok or just picking at her food. This place is awesome and I'm a big fan of allowing the pups to be together as a pack vice tossing them in a kennel and calling it good! Much better for my pup especially since she needs the socialization! I'll definitely be bringing her back again!
