Testimonials

“I have taken my dog, Duncan: a border collie/lab mix, to 3 of Overdale Kennels group obedience lessons. These classes include: puppy manners, beginners 1 and advanced beginners. I also continue to take him there for grooming. They have the most amazing trainers and amazing grooming services. They are very patient and knowledgeable and make the training fun for both owner and dog. I am currently finishing up with puppy manners group obedience class with my 4 month old German shepherd. The training is effective and fun! I highly recommend doing your training, boarding and grooming here!”
– Client

“Over the past 9 years I have taken 3 of my dogs to classes at Overdale and have always had a fun time. I am very much an introvert, so I don’t always ask a ton of questions, but I have learned so much and my dogs are better for having gone. The classes my dogs took are obedience, rear end awareness, rally and agility. I don’t go out much so my dogs aren’t as used to people and other dogs as they should be, but Val and Hilary have always been encouraging and so good with my pups. I hope to continue with their training here in the future months.”
– Client

“We travel during the winter and take our miniature American Shepherd with us. People often comment on how well behaved he is, and my credit always goes to Overdale Kennel. The training programs we participated in made a significant difference in Quincy’s behavior around people and other dogs. I also recommend the boarding facilities at Overdale Kennel. They are clean, and when we need to board Quincy, he is satisfied with being there. I NEVER worry.”
