Academy Kennel was a tremendous disappointment. We had our dog boarded there over Christmas and she came back with a wart virus that showed up a few days after we picked her up. This is a virus that dogs can pass to other dogs - however they advertise that all of the dogs are kept separated and have their own free run areas. I called and spoke with the owner to let them know they have this virus in their kennel and she was extremely rude and defensive. She interrupted me saying she didn't know what I was talking about and when I suggested that perhaps my dogs area wasn't properly cleaned she ranted about how that's just not possible. I called out of a courtesy to let them know they need to be aware and watch out and I got chewed out with no apology aside from ""I'm sorry you and your vet think that she got it here."" I know for a fact that she got it there because she is otherwise confined to our house and our yard! This place is terrible and the owner needs a reality check. I will never send my dog here again and I suggest that you send your animals elsewhere too.
