Testimonials

On 7/15/2025 William had this to say:
Always responsive and helpful!

On 7/15/2025 shelley jones had this to say:
We have taken Webster, our pit bull mix, to two other kennels in the area where he fought us just to go inside. He runs from the car to go to Raccoon River Kennels and he seems so happy (not anxious) when we pick him up. He loves to play with the other dogs.

On 7/7/2025 Matt Barton had this to say:
This is a great kennel! I brought my dog there and she seemed to have a good time. I'm not entirely sure she wanted to leave! Staff was friendly to work with and quick to respond to any messages. Prices are very reasonable as well.

On 7/5/2025 Mary-francis Hildebrand had this to say:
Beautiful location, clean modern facility and friendly, caring staff. I was particularly impressed by the number of questions they asked upon intake to ensure they knew as much as possible about my dogs. They are both recent puppy mill rescues so they require patience and understanding, both of which Raccoon River Kennels provided.

On 7/2/2025 Michaela Watson had this to say:
Can’t say enough good things about Raccoon River Kennels! My Golden Retriever absolutely loves coming here and comes home exhausted from a day of playing! The staff are all so kind and treat my pup like their own.
