Darah, who started with us 14 years ago, is enjoying the sunshine today. He is a loyal friend to everyone who comes through our doors and still keeps up with the young pups! We love him! 😍

Our kennel is fully climatized! We air condition and heat as needed to keep dogs big and small comfortable throughout the year. Shady summer umbrellas and other canopies are going back up in the play yards now that daytime temps are in the 70s. If you can’t leave you dog at home, bring them over to us. Never leave your dog in the car when it’s hot out.

If you see a dog in a hot car, call 911. You could save a life 🐶

Due to increasing covid cases in the state of Maine we will be closing the office to two legged guests until further notice. Because we handle clients often returning from far and wide we have decided it’s one measure we can take to remain open and operating as usual.

🐶➡️🏡 Please wait outside for us to check you in/out. We will be watching for you. There is plenty of parking so please park and wait in/by your car for the previous client to finish.

Remember to always have your dog on a leash when coming into the kennel.

Thank you so much for all of your support, love, and patronage.

This Pet Cancer Awareness Month, be sure to stay informed on the warning signs of cancer in your pets. Early detection is key to giving your pet their best chance at fighting cancer. If you have noticed these signs in your pet, it may be time to take them to the vet and ask for a referral to a veterinary oncologist.

Want to help raise awareness for comparative oncology research? Check out the link below to help fundraise for the Nationwide Pet Pet Cancer Awareness Walk!

Us too!!!! ☺☺☺☺

Positive reinforcement increases the likelihood that behaviors will be repeated. Reward what you like to see, as frequently as possible. Rewarding good behaviors BEFORE your dog has a chance to practice undesirable behaviors helps your companion create new and healthy habits/responses. All of this is accomplished while strengthening the trust and bond of your relationship. It is truly a win-win. 🥰🥰🥰

“I was in love with the innocence of dogs, the purity of their affection. They didn't know enough to hide their feelings. They existed. A dog was a dog. There was such a simple elegance about being a dog that I envied.” ― Benjamin Alire Sáenz, Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe
