Kristine + 5I highly recommend the Paxton Kennel. We have 5 large dogs and it always tears at our heart to board them. The Paxton Kennel isn't your typical kennel at all. It' a resort for dogs! So when you go away your pet can go on vacation too. Susy loves the dogs like her own. She keeps them busy and spends time with them...whether out hiking, riding walking or just lounging around the yard in the sunshine. Our dogs love it there so much they didnt want to come home! I wouldn't leave our dogs with anyone else. Paxton Kennel is their second home! |
Christina + Lotus
Lotus starts wagging her tail in anticipation whenever Susy's name is mentioned and is always so excited to come up to Paxton Kennel for a visit. I feel so comfortable knowing that Lotus is being looked after like one of Susy's own dogs. Lotus has so much fun running around in the woods and exploring and when it's time to pick her up I often feel like she'd probably prefer to stay. It's a definite treat for her every time we go away, she gets to have a holiday too!

Diana + Stoli
My dog requires special treatment in both diet and handling as he is a rescue who previously experienced neglect and abuse, including being locked up alone. At Paxton Kennel, Stoli is relaxed and comfortable. His fear of enclosed spaces is removed by the large indoor kennel space that faces out towards the common area where he can see and interact with family. He particularly enjoys visiting with his doggy friends! He also has a large personal run and a common area where he can be his independent self :) When Stoli stays at Paxton Valley, his strict diet is followed and he feels great when I get him back! Getting a rescue dog over his past experiences can be really difficult and any upsets can put you back several steps so I am very, very picky about who can care for Stoli. This is the only kennel that I trust my dog in. Susy's experience, personal care and dedication truly makes this kennel a family visit not a lonely stay.
Lisa and Chica...
I have been bringing my dog Chica to Paxton Kennel regularly for about one year. Chica LOVES going there. All I have to say is "Go see Suzy" and she's at the door. I've never had a dog so eager to go to the kennel and although she's happy I come to get her, I know she would be just as happy to stay! Suzy has even taught Chica to be with free ranging chickens and not to bother them! Nothing short of a miracle. Suzy really knows animals and they LOVE her. She takes them out walking every day not just for short walks. She will tire them out so they really can be happy having had their needs met for the rest of the day. They get excellent attention and love there.Your dog will love it there. You won't have to worry about them one bit. :)
Christa Bohlein & Remi
Paxton Kennel is so much more than just a kennel. I have boarded at other kennels and this is the best one. The dogs are walked every day and spend most of the day out. My Golden, Remi, only goes in for bed or when Susy is out. Remi is over the moon whenever I drop her off. When Remi had an eye condition, Susy administered her eye drops. Susy is a very kind and thoughtful person.

Toby’s eyes light up when we head down the road towards Susy’s, he loves to romp with Susy’s four dogs that are always friendly and welcoming. In the past he has stayed happily with Susy and her family. Susy goes the extra mile when it comes to caring for the animals as is demonstrated with her new kennels which are so warm and cozy. Many times have I been out walking or skiing with Susy and the team and have been impressed with Susy’s thoughtful attitude towards the dogs. Susy treats her animals as part of the family. The hardest part of taking Toby to Susy’s is he does not want to come home!
