Professional Dog Kennels, Dog Training & Pet Grooming in Kansas City, MO

I so appreciate their care and patience with my newly adopted dog and of course, with Bentley. Bentley has been a regular for nearly four years and always so excited to go!

We searched reviews and pricing for many places for our coonhound puppy (4months old). At first we were simply going to board her while we were out of town for a wedding. The amount of energy she had at home around our young son was insane and getting to be a bit too much unchecked. We sent our dog Mabel to elkhound ranch and sprung for 2 weeks of board and training as well. Hands down the best value for service we could ever have hoped for! The staff were great the facilities are ideal for your pet (yes it’s out there a little from where we live, south of KC) but that’s probably why the facilities are better than your strip mall training center facility which by the way are typically much more expensive for fewer days). Our dog has been back less than a week, She’s calmer, she is very smart and understands everything she has learnt, she is much better around our 2.5 year old son (Mabel’s a 55 lb dog so that was important to us) She takes direction she is great in a leash. I will be sending both of my dogs here next year. I recommend you give elkhound a shot if you have multiple places recommended! Our trainer Bill - he really knows his dogs stuff! I genuinely couldn’t not be happier! Worth every dollar! Thank you all at Elkhound Ranch we will see you next year!

We have been using this kennel for years. We apprecite knowing our huskey was always in great care while on vacation.

I did a 2 week board and train for my 12 week old Bernese Mountain Dog Poodle Mix and it was amazing. I got videos of all the progress she was making on her training. When I went to pick Penny up all of the staff were incredible and I was extremely impressed by Penny’s training progress in only 2 weeks. When we were getting ready to leave the Trainer was genuinely sad to say goodbye to my girl and all the staff came out to give her pets and cuddles. I walked away knowing that she was truly taken care of and loved. We are a couple weeks out from when she left and I’m still impressed everyday by how obedient she is for a puppy with boundless energy. We will definitely be booking here again!

My dog has anxiety due to bad groomers and this place fixed that. Plus my anxiety dropping him off bs picking him up was 100 percent better. He came out happy! I highly recommend Elkhound to anybody! I thank you and so does Buddy. WE WILL BE BACK!
