Rodney and Barbara Mack began Diamond Brook Kennel in 1982. Rod left teaching high school and completing a Master's +45 program to "go to the dogs". His passion for training dogs needed to be supplemented and a complete immersion in the dog business was the answer. Barb was a buyer in a large department store and began her journey in support of her husband, her artistic eye, as well as her love of pets complemented this endeavor perfectly. When the reponsibility of becoming DBK's head groomer was thrust upon her, she hired a 20 year veteran of grooming and began her new career.

Mission Statement
Report
The owners and staff at Diamond Brook Kennel are dedicated to making our facility your pets "home away from home". We began our pet care business with a passion for dogs. As this developed, our endeavor was to provide the best possible pet boarding, grooming and training facility in New England at the most reasonable price and still make a living.
Boarding
Report
Diamond Brook Kennel offers the ultimate in clean, fresh country air living for your pet. If you are vacationing, your pet should vacation also. Your pet receives the care that our own pets deserve and get. Although we are large enough to offer 24 hour service to the animals, we are small enough to see to it that your pet gets the individual attention that he or she desire.
Professional Grooming Closed
Report
We have always been known for grooming of all breeds. Recently we have limited grooming of some of the extra large breeds, and are no longer grooming cats. Many breeds require styling, such as poodles and terriers that require an artistic touch. This takes skilled practice, and an artistic eye. For most double coated breeds, we believe the "hard way is the best way".
Dog Training
Report
We sincerely believe that trained dogs are happier dogs. Dogs like things black and white, they like rules and pack leadership. They are also much more enjoyable pets with a stronger attachment to their owners (pack). Training should begin when the puppy is about 7 weeks old. Formal dog training classes can begin as young as 4 months, usually 6 months is a safe time for all dogs.
