Our dogs go here when we travel. Good kennel and folks will go the extra mile to make dogs time better.

Glad I popped in on them just now because I was looking at the kennel for my dog and I guess they were involved in a training course so I just asked a girl with a dog that I was interested in having my dog there but then this lady yelled at me to get away from the fence that I was distracting the dog's Training. I thought if that's how they treat potential customers how will they treat you when you are actually one.

We found Farrington Kennels via Google and saw that it had good reviews. There were more than a few negative reviews but we figured, we will form our own opinion and give them a try. We dropped off our dog on a Friday and had to leave town for a week. Check-in went fine, the staff at check in was nice and easy to talk to. When they brought our dog in, they just had me put a slip lead on my dog and hand him away. I thought I was going to be able to bring him to the place he was staying but did not. Ok that was fine. But when they were gone, behind one of the doors I heard dogs barking and you can hear a worker yell “shut up!”. Heard it but just let it go because I don’t know what’s happening behind the scenes. Afterwards I left.We dropped him off on Friday, the weekend passed and Monday was New Year’s Day. On Tuesday we called to check up on our dog and they said that he was doing fine. He’s keeping to himself in the corner with his toy. We asked if he has eaten since being there, they placed us on hold to ask the weekend crew if our dog has been eating/drinking. When she came back on the line she said “Yes, he’s eating and he’s doing great!” That put our minds at ease and felt that he’s doing good in there, eating and he will be fine. We were able to enjoy the time away.On January 9th, I picked up our dog to bring him home. When he came out, he seemed so anxious. We thought it was because he had been in there for a little over a week but when I called his name he looked over to me and he was happy to see me. As I was walking him to our car, I noticed how small he looked and how anxious he was to get out of there. I took him home and when my wife seen him, she noticed how skinny he was as well. We called Farrington and spoke to “N”, (I wont disclose her name). She stated that when dogs come in it takes a couple days for them to settle in and get into routine. Ok, makes sense. But when I asked if our dog has been eating, she said “she personally didn’t physically see him eating or drinking but when she would replace the water bowl, there would be slobber so she figures he would be. Well, the weekend crew said he was eating, drinking and doing great. Well, from the look of our dog, that’s not what it looked liked. He was 107lbs when we dropped him off on the Dec 29th. When we picked him up on Jan 9th, we weighed him and he weighed 98lbs. A loss of 9lbs!!!! What the heck!!!My wife called Farrington and spoke to “N” then was transferred to manager “T”. She was very rude and stated they took care of our dog and it’s not their fault that our dog was shaking and anxious. She said his weight loss was normal but 9lbs is a lot to lose in that amount of time if our dog was so called doing great and eating. She also mentioned they had @ 120 dogs that week and they did the best they can. If you can’t give equal care for each pet then you shouldn’t have that many in your facility. We never got a call stating our dog was anxious and shaking. We were only told he was doing great, eating and well behaved. We put our trust in this place but unfortunately our dog did not receive the care we expected; More like neglected. Per “T”; this place is not a good place for your dog, take your business elsewhere.Well, we formed our own opinion and will not be taking our dog here for any future stays. Was really hoping for a great experience but we got the complete opposite.

We've been happy here. They know our dog well and even though she doesn't really want to go when we drop her off, she always leaves happy.

I have never boarded my dog. He's a pittie so I'm just nervous because of the bad reputation they get. When on the phone and they asked about his breed there was no hesitation. We booked him thru the holiday. Buddy stayed for 2 weeks and we opted for grooming to pick up a very clean dog. He was pretty dirty so they did a great job! I'm pretty sure Buddy barked at every other dog and ran back and forward most of the time. He is EXHAUSTED in the best way! He will go back! I will trust them with my boy! So excited to find a place trustworthy!

Brought my two young 15lb dogs for a week stay. Dogs were a nervous wreck when we picked them up. Extreme diarrhea with one and extreme nervousness for both for approx 3 days. They are finally becoming who they were before the visit. The communication from Farrington is -4 on a scale of 1-10. Stayed 7 nights and was charged $400. Not sure how that figure was determined - just wanted to throw the money at them and get our dogs as far away from this place as possible. Shape up Farrington. Or get out of the business of caring for peoples pets. Might I suggest live stock of some kind?

We boarded our hyper heeler Rosin while we went on vacation and had a great experience. We were able to enjoy time away and not have to worry! Shoutout to Tonya for the great customer service. We will definitely be back.

Love this place! My dogs love staying there and they offer grooming after their stays. Only challenge is they don't take drop offs on Sat and Sunday so it's always a full weekend commitment even if you only need one night. Other than that, I would highly recommend it to any dog and cat lover .

This was my first time boarding my dog here. My dog came out wagging his tail so happy so it made me feel so good to see how happy he was. At home he seemed very calm I wonder if they gave him a little training as well? But overall he's been himself and I can see he sure missed us ?. I will definitely use their services again. The staff is friendly and welcoming so that helps a lot too. Thank you so much for looking over my dog and taking good care of him.
