Big Basin Dog Training and Kennel offers both dog training and boarding services. The business is owned and operated by Gary and Peggy, who are described as knowledgeable, excellent, and a pleasure to deal with. Their private dog training, including a 30-day program, receives high praise for transforming dogs with behavioral issues into calm, focused, and obedient pets. Trainers work on foundational skills like heel, sit, stay, and place commands, with effective results both on and off leash. The service also includes owner education to ensure skills are reinforced at home. Their boarding kennels are noted for being extremely clean, very large, and having both indoor and outdoor areas. They accommodate dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including those with separation anxiety or aggressive tendencies, using a safe kennel setup. Owners trust that their dogs are cared for as if they were the business's own, with dogs appearing healthy, alert, and excited during their stay. Many clients report using the kennel for years, valuing the security and reasonable prices. The business operates by appointment and is recommended for both training and boarding needs.
We have never had a bad experience! Jerry and his wife are excellent to work with! Our Sprinkles goes in happy and comes out happy! The girl that greeted her on her last visit was as sweet as she could be.

This is a great boarding facility. The owners have decades of experience and know what they are doing. Dogs have access to indoor and outdoor areas, are cleaned multiple times a day, and are monitored closely. I never worry about my dogs well-being, and they like being there.

Met with Gary for a puppy training session and he not only helped train basic obedience but spent time sharing his knowledge so I could be successful after I left. Its been one year and the foundation he helped lay has resulted in my dog being obedient off leash in all environments.
