Northwind Kennels

Not sure where to start or how to better convey my gratitude, this amazing team of angels are a blessing beyond measure, I can’t thank you enough for the goodness you bring to our lives, love yall! The word is out, amazing grace is the best way to summarize this God send of a team!

Our little rascal Sammy, wandered from our property this morning. He was picked up by a concerned neighbor who brought him to the police station, who called the Northwind Kennel to pick him up. Luckily, after a bit of panic, we saw his pic posted on Facebook and were able to track him down. We called Northwind, and they couldn’t have been nicer! They sssured us that Sammy was in a great mood and would be well taken care of until we were able to get there. When we arrived, he was in the front with the staff having a great time! They were so lovely! We really appreciated their warmth and humor on an emotionally challenging afternoon. Thank you Northwind!!!!

Northwind Kennels, Penny and team are so wonderful, loving and caring to all animals, and we are so thankful for their attention and love for our pup Hennessy. Hennessy was sheltered by Northwind for 3 years when a foster or adoptive family could not be found, and now we take him back for boarding when we are out of town. He is not nervous about going back, and loves the staff and volunteers there! They love Hennessy like their own.

I was really nervous to board my dog at a kennel, worried that the big, anxious, slow to trust humans and not pet friendly mush would be triggered from his shelter days. All those nerves dissipated once I met Penny and the staff at Northwind Kennels. She immediately recognized my dogs fear and anxiety at drop off, and met him where he was the entire staff came from a place of understanding Lex’s back story and answered all questions I had. He didn’t even need his tranquilizer meds, a clear sign that he felt safe and cared for. I picked him up today, happy to see a wagging tail and goofy pittie smile and that he bonded with Penny. I’d definitely board Lex here again if the need arises.

Penny is one of the hardest working, selfless people I have ever met. Her dedication to animals is unmatched. I have boarded my dogs there over a span of 2 decades. They are always well taken care of and happy thanks to her and her wonderful staff. Thank you!
