FirstBarkTodd took great care of both my dogs during their month long training/boarding stay. I was so impressed with how well they walk on a lead now and are doing well with their basic obedience training. Incredible value! Would definitely recommend

Highly recommended. Todd and Old Salem Kennel have taken great care of our dog Cash every time he’s stayed with them. Worth the short trip out of town to get there.
Hidden Gem of Oconee County for all your pet needs! Personal attention, and your dogs will always be eager to come back!
Great place to keep your friendly dog(s) when you need to go out of town. Our dogs are always excited to go and are in great spirits when we pick them up.
I have been taking my dog to Todd's kennel since 2019 and have always had a positive experience. My dog has stayed at Old Salem for anywhere from 2 days to 2 weeks. It is a great property (clean and spacious) and Todd is really great with ensuring that my dog is taken care of. I would highly recommend.
