I can’t really put into words just how wonderful these kennels are and just what Amarnda offers for these dogs .We have been using Amarnda to look after our English Setter Otis for the past 5 years ,he is often seen on the videos shown on you tube, thoroughly enjoying himself !. We have no problems leaving him there,he loves it and rushes into the gate as soon as we arrive.He meets lots of other dogs there and has a brilliant time while being exercised in the paddock several times a dayWe receive photos and videos daily while we are away ,definitely putting our minds at rest . Amarnda has not only looked after our dog but has also trained him in many ways.Just a wonderful place,who I have recommended to so many people. Thank you once again for loving our dog as much as we do
We left our two Saint Bernards Archie and George for the first time having visited the kennels and realised what a lovely place they would be staying in. We received photos of the boys every day and could see that they were enjoying themselves in the fields we would highly recommend these kennels for the care and kindness our dogs received. 5*
My 2 lurchers, Dipstick and Marble, absolutely adore Amarnda, and her kennels. They bounce out of the car to greet her, and tails wagging, walk off happily with her to enjoy their stay at her lovely kennels. Amarnda takes photo's of them playing in the huge field, and emails them to us while we are away, so we can see them enjoying themselves - playing chase, tag, and all the usual lurcher games. They always return clean, happy and tired, having had a great time - which gives me peace of mind they are well looked after and safe while I am away. She goes out of her way to make sure they eat properly - not always easy for a fussy lurcher like Marble - and will try different foods until she finds one that suits.
Fussy dog owners will understand when I say that the best testimonial for a kennels is when the dogs see the owner arrive to collect them - and think " noooooo !!! not yet !!"

After a lengthy search of google which followed an often shocking inspection of other kennels in the area stretching from Bromsgrove to Redditch to Kidderminster I was lucky enough to stumble along A & B Kennels. My dogs are not the easiest dogs to look after, my Bullmastiff is stroppy and will only do things on her terms and sulks, and my RottiX is dog aggressive, not exactly the easiest of problems to encourage a kennel to take on! I arranged an appointment with A&B to view the kennels and talk about these issues. As I entered through the security gates, I knew these kennels were going to be different, the cleanliness and hygiene standards were obvious. It smelt so clean and looked spotless. After discussing my needs, and having routines and standards explained, shown cctv real time footage of each the kennels, I was invited to look at the kennels. (I must admit I was already so very impressed at this point!!) I was asked to keep quiet so that my presence did not disturb the dogs. I was a bit puzzled as I couldn't hear the normal racket of constant, ear piercing, dog barking and yet I'd seen 'residents' on CCTV. I walked towards the kennels and stood on the protection barrier as instructed and peered into two empty kennels, which were spotless! The whole place smelt so clean. Where was the normal distressed, endless dog barking that you normally hear in kennels? There isn't any; these dogs are so routined and exceptionally well cared for that they're clearly content. I was amazed, let me book in! As we left the kennels, there was a rotti enjoying himself in the sunshine out in one of the large paddocks, Amarnda kindly talked to him and he wagged his tail in excitement. As a prospective client I felt this was all very reassuring - she knows these dogs and they know her I thought. I travel 4-6 times a year and this kennel have never ceased to please. My dogs freely give out 'kisses' to the owner as soon as they see her, tails wagging, they're going on holiday too! I love the video footage and photos posted online so that I can see my 'babies' whilst I'm away! I must also praise them for the behaviourial guidance and endless support they gave to me and my RottiX. It was very very gratefully received. I seriously would recomend this kennel head and shoulders above any other! Visit and you'll see why! by Cheryl Nairn, Worcestershire |

reviewed A & B Dogs – 5 star
The most amazing place in the world for dogs! Our boy absolutely LOVES it here and we know that he is safe, secure, and well looked after when he comes here on his holidays. We would never send him anywhere else. He is reluctant to come home once he has been to see you as he loves it so much! Very highly recommended. A*

We wouldn't use anyone else to care for our dog, he loves going on his holiday to A&B, I couldn't recommend A&B high enough.
– 5 star
Thank you Amarnda for taking such good care of Honey Mellow and Bertie xxx
Very special place if your worried about your dog. I found this kennels through recommendations while walking my Sprocker girls both in Harbourne & Lickey Hills. I was du ious at first as the phone was never answered but it was worth my percevierence. The photos I received most days allowed me to enjoy my holiday and my girls looked so happy. I have now booked for three more holidays next year.
Our pups have stayed at A and B dogs for some years now.We have complete trust and confidence in the way they are cared for.
They are always happy to go through the door to their home from home destination.We get regular photos and videos and they have the most wonderful time running around the paddock.
Nothing is too much trouble and their every requirement is catered for.The place is immaculate and I always say that they they are going on their holidays as well as us.!!
They come home happy and smelling beautiful from all the lovely baths they have.
I cannot praise Amarnda enough for her dedication to the dogs she cares for and in the way she has helped us in very difficult times.
A and B dogs are all about the dogs and the high standards of care they receive.My dogs are my family and extremely important to me and this luxury kennels provides me with the peace of mind that they are happy and well cared for.
My English bull terrier absolutely loves Amarnda and cannot wait to go on his holidays.
If you want your dogs to be DOGS and have the best care and attention and FUN this is the place to choose.!!!
It is the first time me and my husband used these kennels and it’s safe to say we will never go else where. They were amazing I was nervous when I left my 2 bulldogs and my dachshund, but they put my mind at rest - I got videos and pictures of my boys. When I picked up my boys they came home smelling lovely and they looked happy. The girls that worked there are amazing - a massive thank you all for looking after my fur babies. I have never had my boys come back happy from kennels there was no sulking from my boys either - I think that says it all lol Can’t thank you enough Amanda and your team x
A&B are simply wonderful!! We were recommended to them for our Labrador Albus as were looking for kennels as well as some help with his socialisation after he had missed out during lockdown and was not sure how to play with other dogs. Experience at other kennels has not been good where dogs did not get enough exercise and came back smelly and hoarse from barking, but A&B was soooo different, we weren't sure that we had the same dog given back to us (and he smelt lovely) Albus had 4 exercise sessions per day with the other dogs staying, we had videos and photos sent to us every day and he was well behaved, polite and an absolute joy to walk. His recall had improved immeasurably and we were finally able to let him off his long line. He still loves to meet other dogs but understands doggy play and is finally the dog that we had hoped we would have! Thanks to Amarnda and her team! I would and have recommended them to everyone
Great place to board your dog, my boy got nothing but the best attention. He came back better trained and happy, you can not ask for more. Would highly recommend ! If you're looking for somewhere your dog will be looked after and loved then this is the place. They have a YouTube channel too, check it out.
I can not put into words how chuffed we are with A&B kennels; the staff are absolutely amazing. How do I know? Because our Murphy jumps out the car and can’t wait to stay, we receive regular updates from the owner via email and videos, and he even gets a bath without us even asking. The owner is so knowledgeable, kind and considerate to all the dogs. I won’t use any other kennels, none of them beat A&B. Thank you so much for taking great care of Murphy.
No words can describe just how pleased we are with these kennels ! I would call them more like a second home than a kennel.Amarnda has taken care of our English Setter Otis for 5 years now , we would never use anyone else, she is the best ! Not only does Otis race into the door of the kennels but he comes back to us so content.Everyday we receive photos and videos of Otis, enjoying himself in the paddock with his new friends, it certainly puts our mind at rest.He is quite a star on the you tube videos now ! Amarnda is always on hand to help with any problems,training or advice and is more than willing to give out medications when the dogs staying with her need them ,as Otis did recently when completing a course of antibiotics. This was no problem. He always comes back to us bathed and smelling heavenly. Otis is now a regular,it is his holiday as well as ours.Such incredible service ! Thank you Amarnda for all your help ,so obviously a dog lover.
Our lurcher Bailey had a fabulous time here. After visiting other kennels in the area and not feeling that I could leave my dog there, I was very relieved to find A&B. The kennels are secure, spotless and calm and the dogs get loads of exercise and attention. It is more like a dog hotel really! Bailey also got a bath which was hugely appreciated, as was the advice on his diet. Daily photos and videos were fab. Would definitely recommend.

Absolutely, without a shred of doubt THE best experience with boarding our 9-year-old golden retriever, Marley, we have ever had. When we picked him up, not only did he come out happy, but fully groomed (can't stop sniffing his fur now 
). Amarnda is, simply put, the kind of person you can trust, she loves dogs and knows exactly what they need. What a relief we have found her 
A ''Thank you'' doesn't even begin to cover how grateful we are. P.S. The pics and videos you get on a daily basis are the best part and something we genuinely looked forward to every day 
Marley, Alex & Janko.
Absolutely thrilled with my boy being in the care of amarnda! She put me completely at ease as it was his first time!
The videos and photos showed just what a ball he was having!
He almost didn’t want to come home!! Would highly recommend!!
Thank you again.
