I have used many kennels in Florida since I do rescue for Malamutes and cover the entire state. Dorie is there no matter what all I need to do is make the phone call. She and her volunteers take wonderful care of the dogs no matter what. She works with the rescue dogs so we can find wonderful forever homes for them. Dorie extends herself to the limits for the love of any dog. They all get the most wonderful care in a loving environment where they get to run, play & be dogs...

unfortunately when I was moving here to Jax I took my 100 pound american staffordshire to GATEWAY ANIMAL HOSPITAL only to find out upon a surprise inspection that my dog was being sprayed with a water hose to remove all the blood from his head and legs. I confronted the black guy that was doing this and he ran away. The dr said I had to leave with my dog right away because he was a bad dog. (just 2 days before this he said the dog was one of the most obedient pits he ever seen) my dog has been to many kennels and vets in the U S and always was very loved by staff. SO WHERE WAS I GONNA TAKE A PIT THAT IS BLEEDING ALL OVER AND DROOLING FROM HIS LIP BEING SPLIT IN 2??????? DORIE took him right in and nursed him back to health when no one else in JAX would. Funny thing was he was 1 of the smallest dogs there. She is SO good with dogs she would walk my 100lb hard head with a piece of yarn! I still cant do it! SHE IS CHEAPER THAN MOST KENNELS AND 100% BETTER..... I will always go back and is forever in her debt

This kennel is gross and would not suggest anyone leave their animal there! Yes, it is cheap but you pay for what you get obviously!

Emerson Kennels took care of my two dogs for a week. Both dogs are not used to being away from home and aren't well socialized. Emerson was very professional and took great care of them. Clearly, true dog people. I would use them again and recommend to others.
