What Reviews Say

112 reviews analyzed

Springdale Kennels is highly praised for its exceptional value, on-site veterinary services, and large play areas that leave dogs happy and exhausted. However, there is a stark contrast between the majority of glowing reviews and several severe safety allegations, including unreported dog attacks and a pet death. While long-term regulars swear by the facility, new clients should be aware of strict noon closing times on Saturdays and mixed reports regarding staff empathy during incidents.
