Blue Line Kennel

I boarded my Dobermans with Blue line kennel and it was a great place and my dogs were well taken care of. the kennel was very clean and the staff was great with my dogs. when I picked then up they were happy and clean. yes I had Blue line kennel give then a bath before picked them up and they were clean and smelled great. the kennel is in the county and the dogs play with other dogs so they get dirty. I will never take my dogs any were else. Blue line kennel gets 5 stars from this customer and my dogs. more

My dog loves Blue Line! The first time I boarded Penny, I used a different kennel. When I dropped off Penny, she had her tail tucked between her legs and had to be dragged into the kennel area. I felt horrible!! I did my research the next time Penny needed to be boarded and decided on Blue Line Kennels after hearing many good things about them. I have used them a couple of times now and Penny LOVES them! What is unique about Blue Line is that the dogs get to play with each other. This last time I boarded Penny and I picked her up, we got in the car to leave, I rolled down the window and started backing out and she jumped out of the car! She has never jumped out of the car before nor since!! She wanted to stay! That spoke volumes for me and I will never take her anywhere else. The staff is also very friendly and really seem to ""understand"" the dogs. I'm confident Penny is well cared for and she obviously enjoys her time there! more

I've been taking my dog to Blue Line Kennel for YEARS. Never ever been disappointed! My dog loves it there and Heidi and her staff take exceptional care of her. She gets to run around with new ""friends"", be safe and well cared for. I wouldn't take her any place else. Lori more

Heidi trained our very headstrong puppy and has boarded him and our sweet old girl. Her training of our dog and us has helped our entire family (and we believe the dogs are part of the family) get along. Our dogs love going to the country where they are able to run, in lots of space, with other dogs. Heidi loves, grooms and disciplines them in a way that no one, other than someone who loves them like an owner, can. Pros: Excellent care! Cons: ?? more

A rescue GWP I adopted was have a few behavioral problems. Heidi at BLue Line in Waxhaw had him well trained in basic obedience on my return and then assessed the other dogs in my pack, to see where the problem lay. Excellent work, clean facility--I am a very satisfied customer. Pros: Knowledgeable, experienced, produces results Cons: A little far for me to drive from VA more

Blue Line Kennel is a great country club for bording you pets! I have show dogs, both Bloodhounds and also Afghan Hounds in full show coat. I also have a GSD and a 19 year old JRT. I've borded all of my dogs with Blue Line Kennel for many years now. (I travel world-wide for a living and am gone for long stretches of time!) When I return home from my travels, my dogs are happy, well fed and still in ""Walk Into The Show Ring"" condition! Afghan Hounds in full show coat can be a challenge to keep clean and groomed. Heidi not only does, but she does it with great perfection! She knows how important it is to me to keep the Afghan Hounds in top condition and she does a fantastic job! I am a proud member of the CAHC and would recommend Blue Line Kennel to anyone. I have recommended them to some friends for training their dogs and they've had fantastic results! One was a rescue Afghan Hound with huge issues. Talk about a complete turn around! Heidi does a great job! Pros: Training, Bording, GROOMING! :o) Cons: NONE! more

I have been a certified veterinary assistant since 1997. My pets are my children and I do not trust many people to take care of them. Blueline kennel is a great country kennel. And they are one of very few that I will ever trust with my furry and feathered children. When we turn in the driveway my pets go crazy cause they know we are going to see their Aunt Heidi and Uncle Bob. They act like they love them more then they love anybody. I have heard concern that they are ""breeders"". There are ignorant people that believe breeders are bad. They need to learn however that some breeders are not good but there are some that are wonderful though. Heidi and her kennel are that exception. They are wonderful breeders. They take very good care of all their pets, and on top of that they rescue pets as well. I have had two of their German Wirehair Pointers as well as one rescued GWP that they traveled a long way to rescue. If it weren't for Heidi and Bob I wouldn't have been blessed with Talley, Diego, and Star three of the most wonderful children anyone could ask for. They also rescue mixed breeds and other breeds as well. These are a few of the many reasons I love Blueline Kennel and the family that works hard to make a safe place for all the pets to stay. Pros: Very professional Cons: my animals act like they love Heidi more then me more

We leave our very old dog with Heidi and never worry one day. She gives her meds on a regular basis. Pros: Excellent care for my dogs Cons: none that we know of more

I LIVE AND WORK IN THIS AREA, SO I ALWAYS TRY TO STAY LOCAL ON SERVICES. WHEN I HAVE TO GO OUT OF TOWN I ALWAYS LEAVE MY PETS AT BLUE LINE. WHEN I NEEDED TO FIND A BETTER FOOD FOR MY ALLERGIC DOG HEIDI GOT ME HOOKED UP. I HAVE ADOPTED RESCUE ANIMALS FROM HER. SHE DOES PUREBREED AND MIXED BREED RESCUE. SHE GIVES OBEDIENCE LESSONS AND BREEDS DOGS FOR THE SHOW RING. SHE DOES TRAINING FOR SECURITY DOGS. SHE EVEN TRAINED MY COUNTRY MUTT TO BE PROTECTIVE IN THE RIGHT WAY. I'VE DONE RESCUE WORK FOR 30 YEARS AND HEIDI KNOWS MORE THAN ANYONE I HAVE EVER MET. HER KENNELS ARE CLEAN AND SHE RUNS A VERY TIGHT SHIP. I ASKED FOR A TOUR ONCE AND SHE LED ME THROUGH THE WHOLE AREA. I HAVE PUT MY DOGS IN OTHER KENNELS AND HAVE NOTHING BAD TO SAY ABOUT THEM BUT HEIDI WAS CLOSER AND SO VERY ACCOMODATING THAT I WOULDN'T GO ANYWHERE ELSE FIRST. Pros: SERVES MY PETS EVERY NEED Cons: SOMETIMES ITS HARD TO GET A RESERVATION more

While I have not boarded a dog at Blueline, I can tell you that the time I was there was very clean and the animals seemed happy. Just because they are a boadring kennel does not mean they can not be breeders. I have one of Heidi's GWP's and she is truly amazing and was very well cared for when I got her. Her trainign was incredible. The work that Heidi puts into her breeding program is awesome. Let's face it, there are backyard breeders who breed to pay their bills and just because they have two purebred dogs and there is Heidi. She breeds to improve the breed by closely researching any genetic defects and staying away from it and finding the strong points. I have been a victim of backyard breeder and know what it's like to loose a dog at five from heart defects from a breeder that knew of her problems and did not care. The offspring from Heidi's breeding program speaks for it's self. Heidi also has trained on of my other dogs that is terribly high strung. I could not even begin to get him to listen. He came back a perfect little man that knows all of his obedience and is still very happy. Pros: A-1 training facility! more

Over the past 12 yrs we have boarded our dogs here and had nothing but wonderful experiences. Our dogs jump around the car and start whining to get out as soon as we hit the driveway. They just can't wait to go play with their friends at Blue Line. It's like dropping your kids off at camp that they've been to year after year. We wouldn't go anywhere else! Pros: Excellent, loving and knowledgable staff Cons: Long drive, but worth it more

I had my dog's at this kennel and bad thing's had happen with my puppy. They made my Family grieve for a long time. Do NOT put your UN-ALTERED dog in this place. You may never see it again. We never saw our puppy ever again and they did not even wish to give us anything at all for our loss. They did not offer us any money nor another puppy NOTHING at all. I will never ever trust these people with any of my pets again either will some others that I know. Also they are a kennel, but they are also BREEDERS. What kennel do you know that breed's also ? I know of ONE these people. Pros: Ok people, good with pets I suppose Cons: They are IDIOTS more

Heidi and her staff are wonderful and caring. Blue Line Kennel is located in a beautiful country setting -- down a long winding driveway. When you enter the kennel you are greeted by two talking birds -- one that is named Shania and yes, she sings! I have small dogs who are easily traumatized by being away from home -- but they come home happy and content. I highly recommend Blue Line Kennel and never plan to board my dogs anywhere else. more

Heidi is wonderful with our dogs -- we can't say her name at home because they go nuts and expect to go there immediately. We have moved to Columbia and I still drive them to Waxhaw to stay there when we travel. I can't find anything like it in Columbia SC. I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone. Pros: well cared for, knowlegeable, dogs love it there more
