Akenside Kennels Ltd

When a new puppy entered our lives we knew we wanted her to be well-trained and socialized. Our big question was how do we make this happen? We contacted Twilla at Akenside Kennels, she is a true professional and made us feel completely comfortable with her approach to training. After meeting her and visiting her training facility we were very impressed with how clean and organized everything was. We immediately signed up for a puppy kindergarten class.

Twilla and her teams approach to training is simple, straightforward, manageable and enjoyable. We feel confident going forward with the techniques needed to establish good behaviour and habits for our journey with our pup.

In addition to the group classes, private sessions and puppy socials, Twilla and her team are generous with their time and advice answering any questions we have along the way.

Twilla and her team aren’t just training our pup... they are training us too! Thank You!!!

never had the opportunity to board my pet, as my several calls and emails were never returned over a 2 day span of attempting to contact this kennel. Website looks professional and brags about how well run the kennel is......... but they can't return calls??? Hmmmmmmm

Our dog was a regular at Aikenside until we lost him...in fact, sometimes he went for the weekend just to play with his friends! Every time he went, he came back with better manners and his energy expended. Twila treats the dogs as members of the family and goes WAY above and beyond to accommodate the customer. Our new dog is 9 weeks old and we're hoping she'll welcome a puppy!!

We used to take our Dogs there it was sold this year new owners seem not so much into running the kennel .First time that our dogs have had hot spots.Would not recommend .Old owners seemed more in tune with dogs needs.Runs are in bad shape.Dog need to have there collars off but they do not shut all doors when getting dogs out of kennel.

We have left our pets here on multiple occasions and have had terrific results. Our dog was clean, comfortable and well occupied. The runs are safe and clean, the owners provide feedback at pick up and truly seem to care about our pets.
