Saragold Kennels
welcome to
Established in the mid-70’s, Saragold Kennels has been a cornerstone of the community for many decades. Initially known for producing British Golden Retrievers, Saragold began offering cat and dog boarding in 1998, under the direction of Beverly Danvers. In 2019 Brittany assumed ownership of Saragold.
Committed to preserving the rich legacy created by Bev, Brittany retained Saragold’s name, while further expanding services to include a wide variety of training options. With the goal of giving back to the community of people and pets living in the Magic Valley, we have a program for every need.
From companions to sports prospects, and therapy to service dogs, join us in our journey to give every pet their most fulfilling life.

Testimonials

This is hands down the best trainer we could have asked for. We have a very feisty, unruly Pomeranian, and our trainer did an amazing job helping him learn basic manners and commands. They have a supreme level of patience and are willing to work with you every step of the way. They are also willing to continue providing advice long after the training is completed, and the value of the training classes themselves is priceless. Very satisfied and will be coming back for more!

We had two unruly litter mates with very poor social skills. They were pretty well out of control and we had no idea what we were going to do with them, other than love them. They were running circles around us.
They were separated approximately a month at Saragold. They worked miracles with them. We got to know them individually and they were totally different dogs. They are so different now. They are so much better at our groomer’s, too. What a difference. Taking them to Saragold has made all the difference in the world.

Our dogs love staying at Saragold Kennels. They are always so happy when they come home. I know they are well taken care of while staying with Saragold

It is really hard to leave our fur babies (because they are just part of the family) but know Saragold takes excellent and loving care of each of them. Saragold loves each dog are uniquely as we do. They even took pictures of my Chiweenie as she is getting old and they wanted to remember her as she was. They know each dog’s personality. Love this place and what they bring to animals. We have used this place for years and would trust no one else with our fur-family.

The staff at Saragold Kennels are very friendly and took good care of our cat. It was very comforting to know she was in good hands while we were away.

Brittney is very knowledgeable and communicates information clearly. She is patient and takes the time needed to make sure our questions and concerns are addressed. We have done 3 different group classes and two private sessions, as well as have used their boarding facility. I would highly recommend Brittney and Sara Gold Kennels for your training and boarding needs.

We love Saragold Kennels, they have worked miracles with our German shepherd pup. He is well mannered and obeys much better since his puppy training. We would recommend them to any puppy owner.

I’ve waited until we had a few training sessions under our belt to leave a review. We came to Brittany with a very specific problem. She gave us the tools to work with our dog to overcome those obstacles. EVERYONE in our doggos life notices the change. I’m even giving out Saragolds numbers to my friends in hopes that the team can help them. We’re now over our first issue and working on the next. Saragold privates are very affordable, I just wish they were closer. Worth the hour drive for us! Highly recommended if you want a fulfilling life for you and your dog!

The trainer is punctual, knowledgeable, thorough, and professional. I’ve had group classes with her previously and look forward to my next 1:1 session for my dog with aggressive behaviors. Payment and communication is quick and easy.

When I bring my dog to Saragold I know she is well taken care of and excited to be there! I have a very anxious dog and the employees here have worked with her to make it so she is glad to come and is so much less anxious around other dogs- and even enjoys being around them!

Such a great experience! I wasn’t sure if training would be enough for me to feel confident taking our large breed out on my own. Just 1 session in and we learned so much! Thank you!!!

The ladies at Saragold kennels are wonderful! We have boarded our two rowdy large breed dogs at Saragold on multiple occasions over the past year. Every boarding experience has been positive - our dogs come home happy and healthy. Most recently, our return flights were cancelled and we needed to board for an additional night during the busy holiday season. The ladies at Saragold were very accommodating and were able to board the dogs for an additional night. We know this put a strain on their staff as they were at full capacity. We are very grateful to the caring, reliable and trustworthy staff! Thank you for all you do for our fur babies!

I really LOVE this place!! We've been taking classes since our puppy was about 4 months old. We started with obedience and are now doing sport dog classes. We've discovered we have a new hobby in Scentwork! Brittany is amazing and very knowledgeable. Can't wait until the next class!
-
Our two girl dogs seem excited to be taken to Saragold Kennels for boarding. We trust they'll care for our dogs as if they were their own. When they get home, they hit their nap spots and crash. This just means they play hard and enjoy their time. We couldn't recommend Saragold any higher. I almost forgot how wonderfully our dogs were trained here too
-
First session, and I am extremely grateful! The trainer’s knowledge and confidence was superb. She assisted me finding my own confidence as a dog mom. What it looked impossible and stressful yesterday, it feels absolutely possible after an hour of working with her. I am writing this review, and smiling big time! Thank you Saragold!

My dog Cooper has a notorious past history of not kenneling well. He has done great at Saragold Kennels for both training and boarding. They do such a great job and you tell they truly care about my pet as if it's their own. Means a lot and makes it easier leaving them when you have to.Thanks so much!!

All the staff here are so sweet and loving. They truly knew how to read my dog who is a sensitive and timid soul. I went and toured the facility as well and was so comforted to see that each dog had space — not just the bed. They each had a raised cot and water and enough space to walk around. They also get group time and they were able to tell me how my girl reacted to other dogs and which were her favorite. I saw 2 different staff members and both were equally excited about her interactions at group time. I loved seeing how much they care about our little girl. She is doing the boarding and then board and train. They are so experienced and truly love each dog who goes through their doors
