I have used Elkhound Ranch Kennels a few times now and have been quite pleased with the services they have provided. on the positive side I would say the workers from Elkhound Ranch were very sociable, and would always know my dogs when I would bring them in. My dogs were also excited when they would be left there, instead of being afraid that we were leaving them somewhere. The people there were very flexible in working with me, we would show up last minute to drop them off when we were travelling and they would always be there and able to take them in. Only note I would have for Elkhound Ranch is it seems there isn't a great amount of communication between the boarders and the groomers, as there were a few times when I'd plan one thing with the groomers but they wouldn't hear about it or know what's going on. Overall I am very happy using Elkhound Ranch Kennels and will continue to use their services. I highly recommend them!
