The reason I chose Adelhorst Kennels ,in the first place ,was due to rave reviews from both my vets tech Jody and a coworker Who sent her dog for the board and train program. I would give more than five stars if allowed ! My dog just turned one the day before he went to his board and train program with Anna. I didn’t really know what to expect, but I was told to expect miracles and that is what I got! Burke, the mini Bernedoodle, was turning into a highly reactive dog around other dogs, and starting to become that way with people he didn’t know. I tried all different kinds of things and nothing was helping! His behavior was causing me to be anxious and frustrated, which intern, led to him being the same! I picked Burke up a week ago, had a two hour lesson with Anna and Burke before we cam

Benji and Tilly met Anna January 7th. Through her board and train program, she concentrated on working through their anxiety, while building their independence and confidence. The last steps were obedience. Tilly was the least dependent on my mother, so it makes sense that she came home first. We had a 1-hour lesson with Anna to make sure we knew how to reinforce all she had learned before we took her home. Anna made to sure to let all of the family members work with her, explain rationales, and make sure we were comfortable going home. We practice regularly and I’m very proud that 4 months later, Tilly has retained all she learned with Anna! She gets excited for our practice sessions, she’s confident, and has a much better life now. We just picked up Benji and he’s a new dog. We had our

I swear, Anna speaks "dog" fluently. She is a fantastic individual, and her employees are top notch. Dogs are her life. She cares for our pups like they are her own. We've been loyal customers since she had her old facility in the Altoona area. When she told me that she'd be moving to Swan, it wasn't even a question: we would drive to Swan so that our dogs can be boarded with her. While other facilities have the dogs inside all day, Anna has a large piece of land, so the dogs are able to go for walks and enjoy nature. Any time we tell our dogs that it's time to go to Anna's, they immediately run to the car. If you’re looking for a place to board your pups while you’re away, we can’t recommend them enough.

I absolutely love Adelhorst Kennels! Anna and Jess did such an amazing job with my two golden Doodles! I brought my Winston here initially for the 2 week board and train when he was a year and a half- he was so bad at pulling on the leash and not listening to me. After the board and train he was nearly perfect! We took the advanced classes shortly afterwards to reinforce the training and Winston gets so many compliments everywhere we go 😊 Recently I brought my 5 month old Norbert here to get his manners in order right away- he also had never been leashed until I bought him at 5 months old. He would pull of out his collars so I was having to harness him. So far he’s done the 2 week board and train (still cannot recommend this enough) and no more harness ever! He walks so nicely with a colla

★★★★★ 5.0 Julie King · May 2022

Absolutely the best and most passionate dog trainer I've ever worked with. She helped me train my first and second show Great Danes. It was under her mentorship, that I discovered a passion for dog sports. Anna held class to specifically train for obedience and rally (both AKC). I dove into classes and trained at home. She helped me prepare for our first show and was ringside to observe and critique our run! She goes out of her way to help in anyway possible. There is not a better trainer than Anna and her staff! My Danes are almost always in the top ten obedience and rally National AKC list of top dogs in each sport. Anna also introduced us to FastCat. My Gideon is currently the #1 fastest Great Dane in AKC. Without her excellent training skills, friendly attitude, and goal of making su
