I highly recommend BHV/Lake Highlands! Incredibly friendly staff that provides wonderful care for our dog. The first interview was very thorough and they took time to get to know our shy rescue lab mix, greatly appreciated! Our dog has totally blossomed and her personality has opened up over the last 6 months at BHV because of the excellent care and attention she receives at daycare. We’ve used the overnight boarding option for a 3 day trip and our dog enjoyed, plus I knew she was in good hands. The facility is incredibly nice and clean. I appreciate the extra TLC all the staff provides and it shows when our dog is excited at drop off. Love the daily posts on FB & Instagram to see our happy dog playing. Thanks BHV for making doggie daycare so easy and fun for us and our dog!!

My dogs love it here, always so excited to play with their friends. The staff is awesome, greet my dogs by name and you can tell how much they care. It’s a huge relief knowing they are well cared for and we always love seeing the picture updates on Facebook!

This is the best daycare / boarding!! The team here is so sweet and truly cares about each and every dog. I love how safe and clean they keep the environment so that every dog stay healthy and has fun. They greet my dog by name when she walks in. The entire experience feels so personal and I have no doubts my pup is in good hands!

I cannot say enough good things about Barking Hound Village Dallas. I have been taking my basset hound there since he was a puppy and he absolutely loves it. I love that I can get updates on my basset especially even we are away and he is boarding. I do not ever feel like my basset is not safe. The customer service is outstanding! They have always responded quickly to any and all my questions or concerns (and believe me, I have had many especially when I first started using their services). I love their rest (1 hour) and play (30 min) method and it has allowed my basset to be calm and rested when picking him up after a long day.

5 stars all around for BHV! We've spent the past 6 months finding the right boarding for our newfoundland, Ernie. BHV is by far the best in Dallas. You can tell he loves it! Better yet, you'd never know that the place is full of pups - no smell whatsoever (this was a big one for us!). If you're looking for a place that provides top notch care, has friendly staff & remains attentive to your pet - you've found your spot.

We absolutely love BHV Dallas! Our dog, June, was shy at first but they spent time working with her to make her comfortable at daycare. We've also boarded her there which was such a good experience, too. And their baths are always very thorough! Such friendly people who truly love dogs.

I was very impressed with the attention the staff gives every pet. This was my first time with an overnight boarding for Bella Louise and I was confident that she would be well cared for.Thank you!!

We have been clients at BHV for ten years now, and don’t know what we would do without them! The staff is long tenured, caring, and attentive. We have three dogs, and two are very skittish rescues. When they go to BHV they are excited as can be, and run right up to each staff member with tails wagging. Highly recommend.

I can’t say enough great things about BHV! Birdie was on the shy side at first but now she literally walks around like it’s her home. She comes back home tired and happy!She loves daycare and I am completely confident that she’ll be well taken care of if I ever need her to board for some time. Thank you to the great staff for showing so much love to all the pups from the moment they arrive to the moment they leave!

We have been using BHV for over a year now and love it. Luna is a pretty anxious dog but has the best time every time we board her at BHV. As soon as she gets out of car her tail is wagging and the staff always is kind, patient, and welcoming. They post photos of the dogs in a private Facebook group which cheers us up when we have to be away. Communication is quick and clear with staff and they truly have the our dog’s best interest at heart.

After thorough research, tours, and strong recommendations of fellow pet owners, I have been sending my sweet pug to daycare at BHV since she was a pup. The staff is highly professional, very knowledgeable and has become like family over the past 7 years. They LOVE what they do and LOVE dogs! The facilities at both locations are clean and well maintained. I love that the dogs aren’t kept in crates, more like a little picket fence homes inside. They give the dogs ample time to play and rest throughout the day, all while being carefully monitored. I have never once felt guilty for sending her to daycare or there to board for weeks at a time! She can hardly wait to get out of the car when I drop her off. There is absolutely no question that Barking Hound Village is the best doggy daycare and boarding facility in Dallas. PERIOD!

BHV Dallas is hands down the best daycare/boarding facility! The staff is is so caring towards their dog and human clients. I love that the pups have their own suite (and water) when they aren’t playing with their friends. The yards are perfect for the dogs to have room to run around and there’s an indoor area for days when the weather is not ideal. You can even get your dog bathed before going home from daycare or boarding. Very clean facility and top notch care for all!

Barking Hound Village Dallas location provides exceptional customer service and care. They greet Fraser on every visit with lots of attention and he whimpers with excitement when we pull into the parking lot. The staff are responsive and professional to both owners and dogs. Looking through the pictures posted on Facebook particularly when Fraser is staying for an extended stay shows what a great time he is having. Thank you for being the BEST!

We boarded our 1-year-old pup there for the weekend and he appeared to have enjoyed his stay very much. We got to see some pics of him playing with the other dogs on their FB page and he was happy and tired when we got home. The staff are friendly and were very helpful. We felt good about leaving him there.

BHV is AMAZING! I have a 10month old husky mix, and he’s a ball of energy, which makes it incredibly difficult to travel with him. Thankfully, when I travel, I call ahead to BHV and check availability for boarding. I feel comfortable leaving him their good dog-loving hands! I know that he’ll be well taken care of and get lots of play time and attention. They separate dogs by size and energy levels! It’s awesome to know my baby is having fun playing with dogs his size! :)

BHV Dallas has been so welcoming to my fur baby. The staff is super polite and friendly. It is the first place I’ve ever felt comfortable leaving my pup for the day while I’m at work.

I have been a client of Lisa, Jeremy, & Co since almost the very beginning of their time in Dallas. They and their staff are like a family to us. Our dogs have always loved going there for daycare and boarding and I know that they are being well cared for. We travel quite a bit on extended trips and we have such peace of mind knowing that our dog is taken good care of and gets lots of attention while we're away. Everyone at BHV is a dog lover and it shows when their faces light up when our lab, Tucker, comes through the door. They love him and we feel the same about BHV!

Oscar is a very anxious old boy and he did so well at Barking Hound Village on Cedar Springs. The staff was fantastic and they made him feel right at home. He even played with one of the Australian Shepard's that was also boarding. I will definitely use them in the future for my dog boarding!

Our little Murphy LOVEs going to daycare andBoarding at BHV. He can tell where he is going and when we turn onto Greenville from Royal he started getting excited and wags his tail and starts happy barking. I am extremely impressed with the measures taken to prevent the spread of the canine flu. Additionally it is extremely reassuring knowing that all the BHV staff are pet CPR trained. BHV is the only place that we feel comfortable boarding our little guy at.

We (and our puppy) absolutely love Barking Hound Village!! We have tried numerous doggie daycare/boarding places in the DFW area and BHV surpasses all of them. BHV is very clean and you can tell that the staff members love their jobs, and most importantly, love dogs. Our puppy absolutely adores them! He is at the point where he starts to happily bark as soon as we pull into the parking lot. When we walk through the front doors of BHV, his tail is wagging and he is squirming to get to the staff. I also want to get to a special kudos to the staff. We have boarded our puppy a couple times at BHV (in addition to doggie daycare a couple days a week), and being a first time puppy parent, I was emotional saying goodbye to him when we first boarded him. The staff were incredible! They were so sweet when I was saying goodbye and they were so kind when I called to check in on him when I was away. I never felt like I was a bother to them, which means a lot. The staff even sent video of him happily getting scratches. He had a total blast and slept for days after we picked him up. BHV is an amazing place. I could go on and on, but you should just see for yourself!

Love this place and more importantly, our little guy Jackson loves it. He gets so excited when he jumps out the car and all the girls treat him so warmly. It's great the amount of play time he gets and he sleeps in his own picket fence yard. So lucky we found this place.

We just got a doggie and left him at BHV Dallas location over Fourth of July weekend. Before the weekend our dog had a trial day care day to get used to the place. We were sad to leave him over the weekend, but he was so excited when he got there we immediately felt better. You can tell Lisa and Jeremy, the owners of the facility, genuinely care about the well being and taking good care of animals and it shows in every aspect of their business. Our dog had so much fun playing with the other dogs there and we will certainly be bringing him back again soon!

My baby had a grand time at daycare!! He loves to play! They play inside and outside. They also have nap times throughout the day which I love. My pup will play constantly and exhaust himself way too much. This place is perfect. The staff is very nice and did everything I asked of them. I love the little doggie suites as well.

BHV Dallas is the ONLY place we board our dog and he loves going to doggie daycare here. He has been going to BHV since he was a puppy...7 years now!. Our golden doodle enjoys playing with the dogs just as much as the people. We love the staff at BHV, they have become family to us and they truly go above and beyond for our fur guy. I am always recommending BHV! We love it here!!! Best staff ever!!!

BHV is the best daycare and boarding facility we have found. The staff is always so friendly, courteous, and professional. They take such great care of our dog (even though he gets a little nervous sometimes). I would highly recommend BHV to anyone who needs great dog daycare or boarding!

Barking Hound stands above the rest when it comes to doggie daycare and boarding.We have been taking our dogs here for nearly 10 years. We have watched them grow and move locations. However the one thing that is always consistent is the high standard of care that they provide to our dogs. I never worry about our dogs in their care. I know our dogs enjoy their time spent here.One of the things I admire the most about BHV is their staff. Their staff has been top notch and consistent. I think the fact that the staff is so familiar speaks volumes to the type of business the owners run. I know our dogs appreciate it and I would not trust them to anyone else.

We absolutely LOVE Barkinghound Village. The staff is so friendly, reliable, responsive, and they adore our baby, Sophie. We know Sophie LOVES BHV and the staff as she frequently drags us through the doors to the lobby, giving bear hugs to everyone in sight and then promptly prances off to play with her besties. They group the dogs according to size and personality, which is so reassuring to know she will be with other dogs matching her energy level. We have boarded Sophie several times and have only had the best experiences over the last 8 months. They also have a Facebook group and post pictures of your baby through out the day, further evidence showing how much the dogs enjoy their time at BHV. As a helicopter dog mom, know your baby is in the best hands.
