Greymont Kennel

All I can say about Greymont Kennels is this: They were directly responsible for the death of my dog. I would never trust the management there again, ever. more

All I can say is look in to it REALLY good before you decide to board there...I would not take my dogs there again. more

H Pros: null Cons: null more

Noir, my "baby," has been staying here since he was a puppy. I have had no negative experiences with Greymont. I do wish they picked up and delivered in my area, but the drive is short, so I don't mind. The price is much more reasonable than many other places. They do charge by the day, so be sure to ask about that before you check out. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I wouldn't go anywhere else. more

Whoever is running this place needs to show a little more interest or compassion. Dog owners LOVE their dogs and want to know they are being cared for. They do not ask for any specifics about your dog,except shots,etc. When asked about how they deal with dogs with storm anxiety/anxiety, they responded by saying we drown out the noise with tvs and music and they are JUST FINE. Sorry lady but we arent buying it and we dont need the condesending answer. Some dogs genuinely freak out with storms BEFORE it hits. Whether you choose to send your dog to greymont, the farm, etc. I think you can tell alot about the place by how you are treated on the phone and in person for tours. In speaking with two other kennels nearby- completely considerate, concerned and listened and so far from snooty. more

We let our dog stay here for two weeks and she made it out alive and healthy. That's all we can ask since we can never know for sure if she is happy no matter where she stays without some sort of mobile 'doggie cam'. And even then, you can't read her mind. Anyway, we had looked at other boarding facilities including Pet Resorts and The Farm. We were REALLY turned off by the snotty, condescending attitude of the women who showed us around at The Farm at Natchez Trace. The woman at Greymont Kennel who showed us around not only was genuinely nice, but we could tell they would stick with what was important and no frilly fancy stuff. Your dog needs love, food, water, shelter, medical care, shots, heartguard, walks period. The Farm tries to make you feel guilty if you don't pamper your dog like she's Paris Hilton. The Farm is ridiculously overpriced and almost twice the price of Greymont Kennel which has the same rates as most other boarding facilities we looked at. Some of the people who work at Greymont are either former police officers or work with police officers; of course that doesn't always guarantee excellent service, but you sure do feel more comfortable dealing with people like that. That's not to say the place was perfect. The owner is not all smiles and his emails are curt. The woman who checked us in before we left for our trip was jittery and wouldn't let me go back with my dog. I would have liked to have seen exactly where she would be staying. Quite frankly, I was nervous during our trip about whether or not we had made the right choice. But when we got back, she looked good, and I just don't think we could do better. I was also relieved I went with Greymont because I asked a fellow volunteer at the animal shelter about The Farm, and she said she had a bad experience at The Farm. I was relieved we had not gone to The Farm and had not been fooled by their scenic location. And by the way, Greymont's location is also in a fairly scenic and quiet location outside Fairview. I think we made a pretty decent choice. So we will take her there again. more
