I was very impressed with this facility the moment I opened their doors. It is amazingly clean, the staff is friendly and treats your dog like family. We have been bringing our puppy here. He stayed for 10 days without any issues. I definitely recommend this facility. We plan on this being our dog's home away from home! You will not be disappointed...worth the cost.

Breed Above is absolutely amazing. Our Leonberger puppy goes twice a week for play days, and can hardly wait to get there. The staff know each and every dog as well as their little peculiarities, and take great pains to meet any special needs or requests. Everyone knows both your name and your dog's name, which i find absolutely amazing. The dogs in the play area that I see when I am dropping off or picking up, are having a wonderful, well-supervised time. I am so glad that we have this facility in Ann Arbor. It has bee... read more

We've been bringing our puppy (who is now seven months old) to Breed Above for their "Day Stay" program for the last four months. It's a relief knowing that our dog is in good hands on our longest and busiest days. Their hours make it very easy for us to drop her off before work and to pick her up after - even when we have early or late meetings. On our tour, we were able to check the entire place out, and I was AMAZED by how clean and orderly it was - we've been to doggie daycares before that were, quite frankly, a lit... read more

I'm glad business is good and there is no need for new business. Being a business minded person first impressions are so important. Knowledgeable staff, caring and listening to the customer and truly wanting my business is a must in your reception personal. I registered on their online program but when I arrived to ask some questions, I received a very cold shoulder. I gave my name and started to ask questions, but it was very apparent that she was not in the mood to actually figure out what I was looking for. I was told t... read more

On Monday Jan 20, we submitted our application, in hopes that we'd eventually get our puppy into a class and for boarding. The app said we'd hear back in 48 hours. By Friday that week, we still hadn't heard back so I called, and was told that they were swamped with new apps and that we would hear back on Monday. Late Monday someone called and left a voicemail on my phone. When I called back on Tuesday the woman I spoke with couldn't find our application. She put me on hold several times to try and look for it. She blamed it... read more

Since this business was sold, the quality of care and service has gone downhill very fast. My wife and I have been taking our dog to Breed Above for years. The original owner of the business ran a pretty tight ship. The facility was clean and the animals were cared for well. Although expensive, we had no complaints. Since the original owner sold out, things have gone down hill fast. Just about every time our dog has stayed overnight, our dog comes home with some sort of illness. We currently have a young, normally hea... read more

Our dog was recently bit, and most importantly, the staff had no idea! We picked him up from day stay and found a patch of fur and skin missing on his side. He needed a decent amount of stitches. He's a big Newfoundland, and some dogs don't like his size, so they bite at him. We understand that, and have actually come to expect it. We did, however, expect for the staff to be watching him. Why in the world would we pay to drop our dog off at breed above if no one is watching him? In addition, breed above did not reach out t... read more

I took my dog there on Friday for two nights while I attended a funeral/memorial service up north. She was a happy and healthy dog on Friday. On Sunday when I picked her up, she was not, and still isn't. She has been vomiting and having diarrhea since she got home. On day 3 now. Including blood in her stool. She is refusing to eat or drink and a trip to the ER Vet last night showed her entire GI tract is inflamed. A Breed Above claims she was perfectly fine during her stay and only ate the foot I provided. This canno... read more

At first glance Breed Above is an aesthetically pleasing building with friendly employees behind the desk. Unfortunately despite 'priding' themselves in not judging dogs by their breed, they have been the only doggie daycare in Ann Arbor with a trainer that openly generalized that "anytime a bully breed vs a golden retriever come into a daycare one is going to have a harder time." This is just false. I own both a golden and a pit mix and my golden has severe dog fear while my pit is completely socialized. I've heard from mul... read more
