Boarding kennels - anyone used one locally?

[VerySideways]

Argh!

Went to see a kennel on a recommendation from a PH'er, really happy with it and thought it was booked but it looks like they may have cocked up so we may have to re-arrange.

So i'm looking for kennels for 3 whippets for a week (mid October) that's within 15 miles or so of Bracknell.

Anyone got any suggestions? I'm really after a place that someone has used before and been happy with, there's loads in the yellow pages...

Might be a tad more than 15 miles but not much. we use these guys, and so do friends great stuff.

Bach Kennels
Stoke Place Farm
Stoke road
Stoke Poges

Tel: 01753 - 524933

I have also been told that there is a brand new kennels open in Colnbrook way apprentley its of such a high standard that other kennels have been told to use it as an example of what they should be. I will try and find a number.

I have a friend in Bagshot that looks after people's dogs keeping them at his house with lots of care and walkies on the surrounding heath lands.
They have a few of there own and as such keep them in a family enviroment.
Not kennels as such but caring people who like dogs.

If it's any help contact me.
I will see him for a beer or two tonight so can ask.

I've used these for the last couple of years and been really happy with them:

Dog always comes out looking happy, healthy and exercised.

Think we're okay with Old Beams in Holyport, but have made backup arrangements with Bach and Oakwood Park - should know by Monday.

Thanks everyone!

Well recommended absolute big thumbs up for Mink Farm, having lost confidence in our Labs
previous kennel mentioned elsewhere, I found your post and glad we took him there.
