Summer is officially here, and the pack is ready to party!

Things have been filling up incredibly fast around here! Most of our awesome regulars book out for the entire year, which means limited space is available for the season. If you need a spot, definitely reach out sooner rather than later!

A quick calendar reminder: We will be completely closed from June 19th to June 21st.

We are in the smaller yard right now as we try to strengthen and revive the big yards grass.

A note on communications: After happily keeping myself available from 6:30 AM to 9:00 PM for the last decade plus, I am shifting gears to give myself and my family a little more quality time. Moving forward, I will only be replying to messages between 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM (unless, of course, it’s an absolute emergency).
Because of this, I might take just a little longer to get back to you than usual( next business day if out side 6pm). Thank you all so much for understanding, cheers to a fantastic, sun-soaked summer ahead!

The morning rush hour traffic I can actually get behind.

A little trip down memory lane... and a massive thank you to my kennel family. 🐾
I was just sitting here thinking about how long I’ve been doing this, and a wave of gratitude hit me. One of the absolute coolest, most unexpected rewards of running this kennel has been watching your families grow up right before my eyes.
I’ve watched tiny toddlers strapped into car seats grow into teenagers who now drive themselves up the driveway to pick up the family pooch (and text their moms to say they’re on the way back!).
I’ve seen those same kids grow up, find us on Facebook, and start interacting with our page as young adults.
I’ve even been a part of middle-of-the-night “birth plans”, taking in dogs at dawn because a baby was making her grand debut, only to recently sit down and be interviewed for a project by that very same “baby,” who is now a bright young girl.
I don’t know if you all realize just how deeply special that is to me. I haven’t just been taking care of your dogs all these years; I’ve had the absolute privilege of loving your entire families.
Thank you for trusting me with your fur-babies, and for letting me be a small part of your lives as your human babies grow up. It truly means the world to me. ❤️

Forget pearly whites, we’re doing titanium brights now. Thor got his canine teeth capped to protect his bite, and honestly, it’s a look…a bionic teddy bear❤️

Veterinary dentists often use titanium crowns for working dogs, severe chewers, or pups prone to advanced attrition (wear). It completely protects the sensitive inner pulp structure of the tooth, eliminates discomfort, and ensures they can keep using their mouth comfortably without risking fractures.

This is not AI, capping a pups canines is amazing dental care!

That was a crazy, unexpected windstorm yesterday! There were multiple trees down across hydro lines right on our road, but thankfully we were unscathed.
Did you nose…our power wasn’t disrupted for a second because we have a Generac generator that fully powers both the kennel and our home. That means:
The temperature is guaranteed 🌡️
Always access to fresh, running water 🚰
The pups still get to listen to me belt out the tunes because the music never stopped! 🎶
There has been zero damage to our property, and the pups haven’t noticed a single thing.

🐾 Neighborly Reminder:
If your power is still out, please stop by! You can fill up a water jug so your pups have plenty of fresh water. And if you need a caffeine fix, just bring a to-go mug and we will gladly pour you a hot coffee. ☕
We don’t just take care of you while your pups are here, we believe in community and kindness❤️

Excuse me, I couldn’t help but notice you have hands that aren’t currently petting me.
