Kennels in herts or home type kennels

[lisad123]

We have been using a kennels recommended to us but I'm not so keen. He came home matted and the owner was moaning that he had worn out her dog
There are not many nearby me but loads within 30 mins drive. I hate going anywhere not recommended. I have seen a few who have acres of land they use for walking and one who homes the dogs in their house. I like sound of these as that's what his used to.
So anyone recommend any?
