We just got back from touring the Lamar location. The dogs where all indoors at the time we where there and where packed in, most in crates. What appeared to be the original kennels(permanent structures) were about 4 x 6 and had two large dogs in each. Stacked on top were smaller portable kennels(the plastic crates most use to travel with) and had smaller dogs. They even had a small hallway stacked up with about 8 kennels. I will note they had portable ventilation blowing into these kennels using flexible ducts which seemed to keep the dogs cool, but I don't think they were very comfortable. They said they had ~80 dogs in a facility that size. My dogs will not be staying there!

Pros: Staff was friendly

Cons: Overcrouded, lack of real kennels, most dogs crated and doubled up!

then this is the place for you. They have no indoor play facility, therefore they have to take the dogs outside to play in shifts. They cannot or will not tell you how much time your dog spends out of the crate. From the way my dog acted when I picked her up, I would have to guess most of the day was spent in the crate. They never answer the phone and do not return phone calls until late evening. This is a popular place despite its major flaw, so you must book early. On the positive side, the staff is very nice and seems to genuinely like dogs.

Pros: Staff, Location

Cons: Excessive crating, No indoor play area
