We offer spacious kennels, indoor and outdoor designs, with even larger kennels for larger breeds, or keeping your animals together. Our facility is secured with a high perimeter fence around the kennels, with a yard in between for airing, if desired. We offer an excellent cooling system for the summer, and we insulate for the winter. Kennels are cleaned and food is provided twice daily, and the k
ennels are nearby our home so pets can be easily checked-up on. Special instructions for feeding and medication are perfectly fine. We have over 40 years combined experience working with dogs specifically, and are knowledgeable in the care of cats. (We have three of our own "kennel kitties.")
Our main family business, "Blackwater Retrievers" (named for the river you will cross as you approach the facilities from Highway 50), is a dog training institution which has bred and trained some of the finest Labrador Retrievers in the world for "Field Trails", even for the police and military on occasion. We offer flexible hours for pickup and delivery.*
Grooming services are also available. Cuts, trims, nails, refreshing baths... All of these services are also available by appointment. Please note:
We are closed during national and federal holidays.
*At our discretion, a fee will be charged for pick-ups/drop-offs outside of posted business hours.
