Aintree Kennel,

5 Washington Street, Boxford, MA 01921

"Aintree took great care of my cat while we were away for vacation! I had misheard the time we were supposed to drop off and they called me and were kind enough to stay a few minutes later so we could take our vacation! Kind to people and animals!"

"We left our dog there for 5 days. the dog came back fed and clean pretty happy. He wasn't as traumatized as he was after boarding in another kennel. The only problem I had was that I wasn't allowed inside at all. so I couldn't see the facility. that was a bit strange to me."

"We recently had occasion to board our dog and wanted to check out this kennel before boarding him. Upon arrival we were informed we could not go inside to see the facility or check where our dog would be housed. A few days before boarding we left him there for a half day to see how he would adjust. Upon return to pick him up from day care we were greeted by a staff member with an immediate request for payment! No greeting or information on how he had settled in. Our gut instinct was not to board him here but we were limited in time. When we returned from vacation and picked up our dog his bed was urine stained and he had scratched up his bed liner to the point we had to replace the bed and carrier. When we got home, we had to bathe our dog as he also smelled of urine. Our dog has never urinated where he sleeps. We would not recommend this kennel."

"We boarded our 3 dogs for 10 days and they were well taken care of. We also brought 2 of our dogs there for obedience training which we were very happy with."

"I took my dog, Rudy to obedience class here one week after I adopted him at 1 1/2 years old. He had no formal training. I can't say enough about the trainer, Tara Altgilbers! She is a brilliant trainer. Tara quickly identified Rudy's issues and knew exactly how to train both Rudy and I. Amazing canine/people skills. Tare uses positive training which helped Rudy and I bond while learning. I have never had a dog that trained so fast and was happy to do so!!!"
