    Hi guys,

    Looking for a boarding kennel for next weekend, in or around Limerick city, just wondering if anyone here has used any and would have any recommendations, and could give me an idea of price?

    Thanks!

    Hey,

    I've only ever boarded our cat! There's Alpha Boarding kennels for cats and dogs +35361354153 Killaloe Rd,Clonlara and there's Jockeyhall Boarding Kennels & Cattery in Crecora +35361320052..
    Both are well run ..you're looking at about €8/night for a cat, not sure what they would charge for a dog.

    Ours are heading to Annesgrove for the weekend. http://www.goldenpages.ie/annesgrove-dog-boarding-kennels-killaloe/1/

    Its in a lovely location and the dogs are very well looked after. If I was reincarnated as a dog, in another existence, this is where I'd like to be kennelled.

    As far as I remember, the charge is €15 per day. But the dogs get walked every day and have an exercise yard. There is underfloor heating. Very importantly, you get to see the kennels and the owner is nuts about dogs.

    Just to say, in terms of location, head out to Barry's Cross then turn right for Killaloe (right off the main road, then right again at the junction). Then you drive for a mile or so and its on the left on a bend near the canal (which is on your right). Its a lovely old Victorian House with electric gates. Beautiful place.

    I haven't used them myself but when I was looking I was recommended jockey hall in crecora, think they were about 10 per night

    We have used both but I would never trust Alpha Boarding Kennels again as they wouldn't let us see where our cat was being kept. Bad vibes from them

    Can't say enough good things about Jockey Hall though, they are wonderful!!!

    Hello, I saw a puppy for sale on done deal and when I called the lady asked me to send her a deposit, even 20 euros in order to secure the puppy. Is that normal practise? as she is from Limerick and I live in Dublin, I feel quite exposed to just being robbed. Any idea how to check this person out to ensure she is honest? thanks for your suggestion

    what type of dog is dexter? i think ive heard his name been banded about out there. we bring our golden lab teddy out there. that been said we havent been out there in awhile now. might be before christmas but we frequented the place before then. almost every weekend.

    abbey boarding kennel is amazing. garreth who is the owner there is lovely and very friendly. very good feeling about the place. you see where your dog is going to be staying and everything. teddy has often sulked when he has to leave the poor thing. seems to love it there

    the price use to be 10 euro per day that the dog is there. dont know if its gone up or not since. also not sure if there is a discount for having two dogs or what the rates are for cats.

    anyway id recommend garreth to everyone

    stay away from donedeal. Are you looking for a papillon puppy?
    Contact the breed club to find a reputable breeder. http://www.ikc.ie/papillon-phalene-club-ireland

    Have used Abbey kennels Lisnagry last few times & we are very happy with the service, price is now €12 a day or 15 if any treatment is necessary e.g. insulin injection but I feel it is worth it
