Country Acres Kennels
Animal cruelty and neglect. Employee verbal abuse. Falsely calling themselves the arlington humane society

I too am a former employee of Country Acres Kennels. Where do I start? I saw poor conditions each day while working there, and like another person here I was young and didn't realize that I should have taken action at the time to get this place shut down. Training dogs were choked into submission in order to make them obey. The people were mean and unpleasant to work for. The small dog room has dried feces/urine stains in the corners of the cages. Many times dogs would come home sick. I once saw a dog get stuck in a trench out in a play yard. He was out in the heat for an hour or two as I waited with him, trying to get him unstuck, and making sure he had water. The owners of the facility seemed to take the situation lightly and took their time and did not want to have to pay for a vet to come out even though the dog nearly died. I also saw a dog become so dehydrated that he was on the floor and we thought he was dead. Again, the owners of country acres kennels are cheap and did not want to have to pay for a vet to come help the dog. Thankfully, these dogs turned out ok in the end. I only worked at this doggy hell for a month, and saw all kinds of cruelty and poor health conditions, so I cannot imagine how many dogs have died there and suffered for the many years it has been around. Don, the owner was an unpleasant and racist man. Lisa, the training director was verbally abusive and treats the dogs and employees the same, harsh and needing to be "fixed". This place is a pets worst nightmare. The health department needs to investigate at least.
