Sauvie Island Kennels

Sauvie Island Kennels We offer deluxe dog and cat boarding facilities for all breeds, large and small. Specializing in basic obedience and Upland Bird dog training!

All dogs are boarded in a beautiful country atmosphere, shaded by trees in the summer, with a landscaped courtyard view. Your dog is given personal loving attention through out its stay. Reservations are required. We also require that your dog be current on the following vaccines: distemper, hepatitis, lepto, parinfluenza, parvovirus, corona, bordetella and rabies. Proof must be submitted at the

time of boarding. We have Dr. Peter Davis of St. John's Veterinary Clinic on call for our kennel if any problems should arise. Pointing Dog Training (minimum age is 10 months old, minimum of three months training to be scheduled with trainer): We have developed a training program for pointing dogs which we have found highly successful to the upland hunter. In our hunting dog program, your dog stays at the kennel for a minimum of two months. We teach your dog to work for you, and we dedicate many hours of our training to you in our training sessions. Your dog will be exposed to a variety of game birds, introduced to the gun in a positive manner, and be pointing steady to wing. Our goal is to have you handle your dog with confidence, understand his training and enjoy yourself! It's fun to hunt with a trained bird dog! We limit the size of our training classes, so please reserve in advance for either of our training programs. Call or email us for more information or a kennel tour. Obedience Training: Our all breed obedience program is for one month. We teach your dog the basics of good manners. The basic commands include sit, stay, down, come, heel and no. Our program includes several private lessons with the owners to learn and practice the technique of handling their dog. Minimum age of 8 months. Please schedule one month with trainer.

Some cute blondes out for a romp this morning!

We are passionate about incorporating proper e-collar acclimation into our obedience training for this exact moment- freedom for the dog!

When a dog is correctly introduced to an e-collar it can become such a positive training tool and lifelong investment in your dog’s ability to run free and enjoy open play. Letting your dog enjoy untethered play while knowing you still have hands-free connection to them is a gift to both you and your dog.

If you dream of being able to enjoy a morning like this without fences or breaking a sweat chasing your dog down, talk to us about our 30 day obedience program!
