What we offer
Here at TrailsEnd Kennel, we provide things that most kennels don't provide without adding on extra charges. We are a very small kennel with only 10 runs, so your pets get more individualized attention and care. If your pets are on any medications (including insulin injections), special diets, etc. then we're happy to give whatever care is required at "no extra charge".
We have radiant heat floors so our kennel stays cozy warm for your pets in the colder months but we also have air conditioning to keep them cool in the warmer months.As you can see by the above photo, our runs are all concrete so most dogs that are housebroken do not want to use their kennel as a bathroom (which is how we like it too) so all dogs are let out (individually) to one of our exercise yards 4 times a day to stretch their legs and "read the paper". This helps ensure that they don't come home with bad habits and they get lots of individual time and attention. It is also our hope that your pet will actually enjoy their stay with us as much as we enjoy having them. We like to refer to our place as "puppy camp" and as many of our customers have said, "dogs love it here".
We do offer day care services from 9am-6pm through out the year. However, we do NOT have "group" day care. Pets are still housed individually. We typically let dogs out to exercise individually unless they have a housemate that is sharing their kennel.
You can bring toys if they can be sanitized with hot soapy water (rubber or hard plastic). Rooms are equipped with Kuranda Beds, which will keep your pet elevated off the floor. If you feel you need to bring a bed or blanket for your pet then we ask that it be washed and CLEAN upon drop off. We have plenty of food and water bowls here so you can leave those at home. Please understand that if your pet soils any material items, that we will return them to you in a garbage bag as we do not have laundry facilities on site.
We do recommend that you bring whatever food your pet normally eats when at home. We ask that you bring only the amount of food your pet will need while in our care. We have no problem feeding them on whatever schedule they are used to. We certainly understand how pets can make us feel guilty but we will ask that you not feed your pet(s) a bunch of "guilt food or treats" prior to bringing them to us. This will only disrupt your pets normal routine and may cause unneccesary diarrhea. Your pet will be much happier without that and so will we.
