Alan's Canine Training and Kennels

I am writing this absolutely heartbroken. On 3/17/26 I trusted Alan’s canine with my senior dog believing she would be safe and cared for instead while under their supervision, she escaped and is still missing. To their credit, they did initially help by posting flyers and making some effort to assist in the search and I do appreciate that, but at the end of the day, none of that changes the fact that this never should have happened in the first place. Alan’s canine training and kennels is located in the country, where risks are even greater- open land, wildlife, and fewer people to spot a lost dog, security and containment should be the absolute top priority. The fact that a senior small dog was able to escape raises serious questions and concerns about how secure and attentive the environment really is. Now I am left dealing with the fear, stress and heartbreak of not knowing where she is or if she is ok. NO pet owner should ever have to go through this after trusting a business to keep their animal safe. Please if you are considering boarding your pet here, ask hard questions about their safety measures and supervision as well as the training of their dog handlers. I would not wish this on anyone. I just want my dog home. Karen’s apology and justification for what happened is insignificant and insulting. Their care was negligent and my dog is gone! I hold Karen, Alan and their incompetent dog handler Felicia responsible for the loss of my dog- sure I’m angry but they have missed the point of how this should have never happened in the first place and how much hurt they have caused. Use this place at your own risk.

This place always provides excellent care. The owners and the stuff are very professional, experienced and dog loving! There is no hesitation to leave my dog Spike under their care.

I can't say enough about Alan and Karen. They are wonderful, friendly, honest, and great trainers. Karen is so friendly, had a wealth of information, and also responded quickly to our call. I was so impressed to see my shy dog warm up to Alan in less than 5 mins and then also in that time already teaching her several commands. Our first visit Alan had our dog calm and ignoring a cat just feet away! I would highly recommend Alan's Canine

First time using a kennel for our new dog Kia. We are so happy with our experience with Alan's canine. They quickly responded when we wanted to check on her and sent us a thanksgiving picture. They are reasonably priced and seem passionate about the dogs. Alan's canine will be our go-to kennel whenever heading out of state. Thanks so much!

We've been going to Alan's for training and boarding for a while now and love this place. They really care about your dog and I trust them completely with all our dog care needs.
