Sun Dog Kennel, LLC

Sun Dog Kennel, LLC Texting 231-392-9680 is the best way to reach SunDog. SunDog Boarding Kennel is Northern Michigan's finest first-class kennel with blue ribbon accommodations.

An all-inclusive 5-paws vacation for your awesome pup while you are away! We are Northern Michigan's first cage-free kennel, since 2005. Our kennels were designed just for the dogs! We spend much of our time outside in our 20,000 sq. ft kennel yard. Dogs choose how they like to spend their days whether it be a comfy nap in the office, a good belly rub lounging on the couch for story time, romping

with their pals, a game of frisbee or ball, or a game of tag outside all while enjpying our awesome Northern Michigan views. I take pride in personalized and individual care to each pup and our mission of providing a fun, safe, and relaxed environment. We believe dogs who get to play, socialize, and get plenty of exercise (physical & mental) sleep quietly during the night, eliminating much of the stress from boarding. I am often told how happy & relaxed our SunDog pups are when they are picked up and arrive home - and that's what we love to hear!

Foster dog Bliss looking for her forever home! Lakeland Terrier! Spayed, female, 3, UTD on vaccs, cats/kids-unknown, dogs-to discuss, will crate but has some crate behavioral issues, knows basic commands, energetic, loves to shake/tug and play with blankets, full of energy but will chill! I was told OK for grooming and vet handling.

Bliss was a Grand Champion show dog whose owner went into hospice. If you’re looking for a little terrier this is your girl! She’s got an edge & an attitude but also sweet & charming too! She will need exercise and mental enrichment to be a perfect little pup! And a refresher in training. I think she would prefer/thrive being an ONLY dog but other dogs can be discussed if you are extra dog savy but for now she’s 99.9% an ONLY dog-dog!

Bliss is also currently on a pricey prescription food! So something to be aware of for adoption…and future dog care costs! With some fine tuning she can likely get to a nonscript/more affordable food. To lessen her transitions she will remain on it with me for time being. For those who asked she needs no other needs/care at moment aside from food expense! If you’d like to contribute to Bliss’s little foster fund send on Venmo:

Also PLEASE if you have pets please have a plan. Make a plan. And a backup plan. A solid one! Do NOT just expect your friends or family to take your pets in. Have a real & serious convo with who can take your dog and IF they truly will!

Many of camps foster dogs over the years have been due to owners health and sadly deaths. You’d be surprised the amount of pets with no plan for the future should something happen to owner or others unaware of owners plan. If you need help or assistance on this please reach out!!!

If you’d like more info on Bliss please message me. Messages will be replied to when I’m able. Camp kids here & client messages come first.

Camps event is complete ✔️! THANK YOU to everyone who took part, donated, shared, supported, sent words of encouragement, volunteered, anything, & everything to help me get our annual Honor Boxes done for K9 Veterans Day! Proper thank yous to come!

Thank you to my clients who understand me hosting a couple annual events does not affect camp or your campers care. With that said the office is now finally empty but please give me a few more days to get it back to tiptop shape! And ignore the mess out front of excess recycling, etc! Camp will be back to looking normal soon! My entire life for years has been dedicated to SunDog. MWDTSA & Honor Boxes is my passion after your pups! Its an outlet for me and a minor break away from camp! I appreciate those of you who understand!

Extra shout-out to for letting us use the space not one but two days! Your helpers really helped pack-day run very smooth! Thank you again!
