Dog Discrimination – Big Oak Kennel advertises that they provide dog training, boarding, and doggy day care but based on my experience today I would really reconsider providing your business, dog training or boarding needs somewhere else. Big Oak Kennel web site states, “Where a dog can be a dog!” but what they don’t advertise is that they are more breed restrictive or just plan a location where you can take your dog to be exposed to discrimination. My dog is a 2 year old going on three approx. 80lbs lovable dog. My dog has ... read more
Thank you Big Oaks Kennel
We sent our Golden Retriever to Big Oaks Kennel for training and she came back a brand new dog -- she is obedient and now a valuable member of the family. Thank you Elaine and Herb!
Excellent Care!
I have been boarding my 2 dogs at Big Oaks for years and have always loved the service and quality of care they have received. As we turn down the road to the kennel they always get excited and when we park, jump out of the car and head straight to the gate. (that's a real measure of a dog's comfort) They love the play yards, the farm and all the interaction with the other dogs! Great kennel, great prices! These people really love dogs!

We will continue, in the future, to take all reasonable measures to insure that our guests are not unduly stressed by unreasonable levels of barking by other guests.
Rude, unprofessional, greedy
My parents boarded their dog at this place of "business" and I went to check on her. When I saw her, she was very timid and looked very unhappy.

I then noticed a large shock collar on her (she is about 45 pounds) and she then ran into the enclosed area and would not come back out. The owner advised me that she was "teaching" the dog to not bark and ... read more
Dog came home w/fleas, ticks & bites
My dog is on Frontline Plus & we have a pest control service at home. He was at Big Oaks Kennel for 8 days. He came home with numerous large ticks, fleas and ant bites on his paws & in his ears. I called Elaine to tell her & she said "I have 6 acres of land out here, I can't really help that." I don't care how much land you have, if you're going to board animals, be a responsible business owner and have pest control come out. I was charged nearly two hundred dollars for his stay and given... read more
