News:
Following is our schedule. We try to use these times to meet new clients and do check ins and check outs. This allows for a stable schedule for your dog when he/she is a guest at the Lodge.
- 6:45-7:15 AM let out and breakfast is served
- 9:30-10:00 AM we play outside so bring your toys
- 1:00-1:30 PM another outing for playtime
- 4:30-5:00 PM let out and then supper is served
- 6:30-7:00 PM is "defeeding" and playtime
- 9:30-10:00 PM This last let out is quiet time before bedtime snacks are served (Please, no visits during this time frame.) Our schedule is fairly fixed so the dogs know what to expect and know when we are going to play or feed. We would prefer check ins and check outs to occur during these times. This creates a calm environment so the guests can settle in for naps between playtimes.) This schedule also works well if you want to check us out unannounced......please do so during our timeframes listed above. Please be advised, if you come unannounced, we may already have an appt and you may have to wait.
- We like to get to know our guests before they check in. To facilitate that, we offer a complimentary (but mandatory) "meet & greet" for first timers. It is about a half hour meeting here at the Lodge. We find this investment in your dog allows him/her to get to know us and helps build mutual trust. When you check your dog in, he/she is much more relaxed because of this policy.
- We have been open for business since May 1, 2007
- New construction purpose built boarding facility with your pet's comfort in mind
- Heated tile floors
- Large play areas with 6' chain link fencing for your pet's safety (approx .4 acre)
- The fenced area is divided into 8 areas so your dog can safely play individually
- 20 individual bedrooms with visual barrier to provide personal privacy for each guest
- Two specialty rooms for 3 larger dogs or 4-5 small dogs (from the same family)
- Outside covered terraces for protection from the weather
- Owners on site to ensure cleanliness and care
- We will administer existing prescriptions from your vet and supplements
- We provide bowls and beds if needed. (Some guests bring their own fresh bedding which is welcome. Bowls are NOT needed.)
- We clean out the kennels daily and as needed.
- The large play areas are kept free of dirt as we pick up as the dogs go. This allows us to ensure the health status of our guests.
- When you check out, you will find that your pet will not have a "kennel odor" because of our high standards.
- Since May 1, 2007, we have lodged over 400 dogs and can provide references if needed.
