Vinjon's Kennel has a long history in North Orange County and does a great job. Took our dog there as a kid growing up in the area. Still going strong...

Overall

I have three big dogs who do not like to be separated..I only board them with Vinjons because they put them in runs that are side by side so they can see each other and the twins can be together. They go there willingly and they wouldn't if they were treated badly. Big aggressive breed dogs can act out if they are unhappy and they let you know in no uncertain terms that there is a problem.......when we pick them up, they are happy and clean. We trust Vinjons with our girls and do not worry about them when we are gone. If I do get concerned, I can call and have one of the girls check on them. We have other options that we could use but with big dogs you cannot be too careful and the last thing we want is for them to get out, get lost or worse. That cannot happen at Vinjons with their double gating system and security. The kennel is clean. The play area is sanitized as are all areas. But don't take my word for it, call and take a tour in advance. You won't be disappointed.

I've left my 3 dogs here several times. The last time they came home smelling like they had been laying in their own pee. Do they clean the kennels on a regular basis? I will not use them again.

GREAT PLACE FOR THE PETS

This in response to to the letter that “Dawn Hartman” supposedly posted. My name is Sarah. I just picked up my three pets from Vinjons Kennel in Yorba Linda. Needless to say, this is by far the best experience that I have ever had with a boarding facility.



That said, after reading the initial post by “Dawn”, I contacted her for verification. She did indeed say that she could supply names of past employees that would agree with her comments. When she failed to send me these emails, she got very upset that I didn’t just believe what she was saying. She also signed the email ‘Kim’. Now I don’t know whether or not her name was Kim or Dawn (apparently the real ‘Dawn’ has since posted to the thread on another site disclaiming what was originally posted. I verified this with Vinjons). Here is the final email that I received fro her:



Are you kidding me? your going to sit and wait for more people to tell you what i said and risk a chance to lose your trip when there is a beautiful kennel down the way called country care pet resort that i promise you is not only thee most caring but prominent as well. As i said i didnt even board my own cat for free wen i worked there i paid to care at country care pet resort., i dont work nor affiliated with them so im not selling them...im recommending only. Do as you please....they are your kids right? would you allow even heresay to come between a decision? i wouldnt...but its on you. Bye good luck. Kim

(Spelling, grammar and punctuation left as is)



What I don’t understand, is if the listing said her name was Dawn Hartman, who is this Kim person?



It sounds like this person ‘Kim’ is a disgruntled past employee. She made a comment concerning the SPCA. There have not been any infractions against Vinjons Kennel from the SPCA. Needless to say, when I informed them that someone was making a comment that Vinjons had an inside informant, they found this very interesting. I even checked with Yorba Linda code enforcement and they had nothing on file against Vinjons Kennel. The more I looked into this, it sounded like a case of bad apples on the part of fake Dawn, this lady called Kim.



I cannot speak for anyone else’s experience, I can only tell you how mine was. I was referred to Vinjons Kennel by family and some friends that live in the area. The next time I visit my family out in Orange County, I will definitely be using Vinjons Kennel again.

To Sarah. I wanted to apologize to you first hand that you had to be a part of the shenanigans that this person "kim" was trying to drag you in to. Yes my last name has since changed since the last I worked for Vinjon's (left due to relocation to a different city too far away) I will stand by Vinjon's Kennel 100% on the quality of care that your pet receives when they are visiting, both with the boarding and grooming. The owners of the facility have and always will be like family to me and that's the type of cafe and service you get. It is a truly family owned business and that's what makes it so great.

awful kennel experience

before taking our dog to vinjon's, he was perfectly healthy and happy. when we picked him up from the kennel, he had clearly been having terrible diarrhea and was very dehydrated. his bum was completely raw and red because he was having such bad diarrhea and had been licking his bum so much. it seemed that no one paid any attention to him. they claim to have a vet available, but nothing was done about his diarrhea or raw skin. the toys we left for him were covered in poo, so clearly nothing was done to keep his kennel area clean. since we picked him up, he's hardly eaten and has been sleeping most of the time (and he's a jack russell terrier...he's normally so active). he is still having diarrhea, and even soiled his bed in the middle of the night, which has not happened since he was a puppy. vinjon's did a terrible job taking care of him, and now he has several problems that will likely require vet attention. not only that, the staff was rude and unhelpful. i would NEVER take a dog there ever again, and i recommend that no one else go there either
