Meadowbrooke Kennels

"We always want “the best” for those we love so make no mistake. “The best” training facility and “the absolutely best trainer” is at Meadowbrooke Kennels. Susie Stout and Tara know dogs and take the time to evaluate their individual personalities. They also take the time to know you and help you form a strong and loving relationship with your best friend. So look no further. “The Best “ is right on Holston River Road at Meadowbrook Kennels."

"Susie Stout has such patience and encouragement as she was training our Camille and Frannie! This was the first time our fur babies ever boarded too. They learned so very much! Susie sent us texts and videos of their progress. Susie took time to show us in person how to follow up at home with this training. We also had our fur babies groomed at Meadowbrook! They looked so chipper, crisp, and happy when we picked them up! We would give more than 5 stars if possible!"

"My Springer Spaniel came home from his two-week training with Susie S a changed puppy! He still has boundless energy and MENSA-smarts, but is so much more responsive and engaged as I work with him and channel his energy into something he and I can BOTH enjoy. I get so much satisfaction AND relief when he loose-leash walks next to me, sits or waits on command, listens and responds when I ask him to down/stay or come, all with a single request. It takes practice, but I quietly thank Susie just about every day for helping us get to a place where time with the dog is a joy!"

"I don’t trust anyone else with my four legged child! Jinx is my first dog I’ve ever needed help with training. She was loud, bossy, and spiteful. (Hound probs) a customer at my job recommended Meadowbrooke, after I was quoted over $4500 from another company. I was defeated with a 5 month old Catahoula that was destroying my house and my patience. Suzie has been an angel from the start. She has gone above and beyond from the start of our journey. She made me feel comfortable leaving my J for her board and train program, and the multiple times she has stayed for boarding. With Suzie, Jinx has done a full 180. She walks amazing on leash, listens to commands (sit, down, stay, place and heel), and is finally accepting the crate. I used to even have to leash this dog during dinner, no more. They take care of my baby like she’s their own, and never make you feel bad for checking in. Thank you Meadowbrooke!!!"

"I picked up my Sparkey boy this past weekend from his 2 week board & train program and I swear I have a new dog! He follows commands so well now. One of my biggest concerns and reason for bringing him to board and train is the way he would react around strangers walking by him and entering into elevators, he would lunge/ run towards them growling and barking, that has gone out the window since returning home from Meadowbrooke!! I am beyond impressed with how well his behavior is and can not thank Susie and the staff at Meadowbrooke enough for teaching him discipline and loving him for the two weeks he was there!!"
