Some pups don’t care that we are nearly the coldest place on earth and would be happy to still play all day. 🤷🏼‍♀️

May you enjoy your time outside as much as this guy, who gives every play and every day a solid 11/10.

What do we do when it feels like -45? Lots and lots and lots of quick trips outside, all day long.
Lots.

So many.

*special thanks to Uncle Lonnie for always getting geared up for the cold, to help all our besties burn off some energy. 💛

We may not have playgroups, but that doesn’t mean our guests don’t have playtime! These two are a great match for each other, and will parallel play with their toys and chase each other, and then take a break and do their own thing.
This is play that is safe, both physically and emotionally, and always gives the participants an easy way to opt out or take a break when they are overwhelmed.

We make pathways and mounds of snow for our guests to explore, move over and around, and dig in. It’s neat seeing how different dogs enjoy this enriched space when they don’t know they are being watched. :)

On days like today, where there’s 247 feet of snow outside, it’s nice to have a place inside to play.

What do dogs do during the day here?

They p*e. Eat. And do this some. And sleep. More of this. Snacks. This. Dinner. Sleep. P*e. Sleep.
Rinse, repeat.

It’s a good life, with happy pups and happy humans.

Did we… ring in the new year with fireworks, 100 of our closest friends, a live band, and semi formal dress?

No we did not. All those things sound awful.

Instead, we all enjoyed some festive cookies and a regular, predictable night routine, with all eight of our guests out and pottied, and tucked back into their warm beds by 11:00. Each pup got an extra scritch and squish, and I told them you missed them and said hi.

Happiest New Years. May 2025 right some wrongs in your life, and be the year you really needed.

Please, if you are celebrating with alcohol or other substances, don’t drive.

One of the things we hear most when families come for a visit and tour, or to drop off their pups, is how quiet our kennel is. It can get a little louder around meal and play times, but generally, it is a quiet, relaxing place to be, for our guests and for ourselves. This is due to our low capacity - a maximum of just 14 guests! Over Christmas, we were fully booked, and had just 12 pups with us. It was a fun time for everyone and each guest got to do their favourite things, and enjoy all the attention they wanted.

To allow us to continue with this model that keeps our guests happy and healthy, we have made some changes to our pricing. We are bringing in a daycare fee for guests who check out in the afternoon and we have raised our nightly rate. Even with this increase, we are STILL one of the most affordable pet care options in the Regina area!

Things that won’t change:

-no mandatory evaluation or membership fee to use our services
-our ability to care for special guests with complex behavioural needs, like food aggression, dog-selectivity or reactivity, and/or physical limitations
-our multi-dog rate includes separate feeding and sleeping areas for housemates as standard practice
-no charge for medications, specialty meals (like raw, home-prepared, and dehydrated), one-on-one play time, and morning check in
-care provided exclusively by mature, experienced owner/operators

These new rates will affect all new bookings, with a check in on or after January 2, 2025.

Thank you for your continued support over the years, and for believing in our quiet, clean, spa-like vision for pet care.

Information on us, our modern facility, hours and holidays, how to book, and our rates, can be found on our website.

We are Lonnie and Ashley Horan. We have been looking after pets professionally, since 2011. We live on site, less than 15 steps away from our kennel, and are both on the property full time. We are proud to be the smallest-volume kennel in the Regina area, with all the benefits of a professional set-...

This is our favourite time of year, where we are full, but have several days in a row with no or just a couple check ins and outs, which allows us to spend the whole day hanging out with your pups. We don’t have many emails or other office duties to attend to, and don’t have much extra cleaning.
It’s almost like days off for us, and that is a nice thing.

I hope your holidays were gentle with you, and filled with all the best things, like cheese, pie, naps on the couch, and time with a good book/family/your dog.

Here’s a handful of our dozen guests, enjoying the mild weather and snowy obstacle course. :)

Seasons greetings, from The Twelve Dogs of Christmas!! It was a gorgeous day to be outside, and it felt so good to have the sun on our faces.

Each of our guests got to enjoy their favourite activities during the day, and everyone got a special pumpkin, goat’s milk, and beef stew topper on their dinners.

It was a good day for your pups, and we were so happy to have them here. 💛

12/11/2024

We had a cancellation for a Christmas booking. If you are looking for pupcare with a check out on or before December 27, please send us an email at
[email protected]

We are full for the weekend of the 27th.

This is the best minute of your day, right here, watching this little, old, toothless lady eating her bedtime cookie.

You’re welcome.

Penny came for a first ever visit. She was given lots of opportunities to meet friendly neighbors at her own sp*ed and for the length of time that was most comfortable to her.
Meeting new dogs and being in a new space can be tiring, and it was nice to see her take self-imposed breaks to rest in the shade.
She’s a good little bean, and we look forward to her next visit!
