While boardings begin to dwindle down as we start the closing process, we have every intent to still give back to kreatures in need, when and where we can!. That being said, we'll be keeping this platform around for the purpose of promoting, networking and general raising awareness 💜 As a proud member of , I'll be sharing info and bios on adoptable dogs at Grand Prairie Animal Services and Adoption Center

First up, meet Harper Lee!

Honestly, I have no idea how she hasn't been scooped up yet. This little girl is SO sweet, has excellent leash manners, and listens/takes corrections well. And...I mean, just look at that smile!!

Harper Lee is an American Staffordshire Terrier mix, and has somehow been at GPAS since 7/5/24. She is about 2 years old and cannot wait to be your best friend.

For more information on Harper Lee, other adoptable animals, or on joining Prairie Trotters, see link in bio.

Furry friends and loyal pawrents,

After a number of wonderful years of caring for your beloved pets, it is with a heavy heart that I announce the upcoming closure of The Kreature Koven. This decision was not made lightly, and it comes with a mix of sadness and gratitude.

Bookings that have been confirmed through December will continue to be honored until we close our doors on December 30, 2024.

Over the years, we've had the privilege of meeting so many incredible pets and their parents. Your trust in us to care for your furry family members has meant the world to us. The memories we've created together will always hold a special place in our hearts.

While this chapter is coming to an end, we are forever grateful for the support and friendship of our amazing community. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your lives, and your families.

As we move forward, we take with us the joy, laughter, and love that your pets have brought into our lives. We will cherish these moments always.

The Koven may be closed for boarding, but with a few days left before a long trip, we thought we would squeeze in a short term foster 🥰 Elaine is currently in boarding but is loving her own little vacation out of the facility, where she can get some love, attention and decompress.

Elaine is estimated to be around 2 years old, and a German Shepherd mix. She is incredibly sweet, know how to sit, give paw, and we're working on "lay down!"

Elaine is currently being fostered through and is available for long term boarding or even adoption! She is going to make someone the very best friend ever.

Please feel free to share to your networks. Let's see if we can find this angel her furever home 💕

If you are in need of in-home pet sitting during this time, please reach out and we will do our best to get you connected to some of our fellow pet care providers.

See you again soon!

In pet care services, sometimes you've got to be ready to pivot. These four baby faces came to the Koven on Wednesday, all from the same household!

What started as a big puppy paw-ty, turned into two of the four just being a lil more comfy in the walls of their own home. So, we turned this vacation into half boarding, half drop in, full puppy love! Oh, and getting to meet Mr Pibb, head of the welcome committee 🥰

We are grateful for every single client who puts their trust in us. We're especially grateful for those that remain flexible and adaptive to adjustments that allow us to ensure everyone's comfort and safety 💖💖💖

Join me in enjoying these outtakes of Joey and Wentz As we tried to get the perfect pic to send to their family 😁

Everyone welcome first time kreatures Joey & Wentz to the Koven!

Joey is a 70lb, 3.5 year old lab mix and his big brother Wentz is a 110lb, 6 year old bull mastiff! Together, they are 200% cuddlebugs 🤗

This big boys are getting plenty of scratchies, play time, treats... and obviously plenty of R&R!

What a weekend!! If you've been missing posts from us, it was because we were having too much fun paw-tying once again here at the Kreature Koven with double boardings Carson & Sammie

Although we don't typically board more than one household at a time, as a couple of very mild mannered and well behaved regulars, and with paw-rent permission, we booked both of these babies and ensured a very careful introduction.

Little did we know they'd become the bestest of friends! Carson and Sammie got plenty of playtime together and apart. They were showered with love, treats and R&R on their vacation while the moms got to head out of town with peace of mind. And here at the Koven, we got plenty of return love, and even more laughs!

Thank you and .pibble.pile for trusting us with your sweet babies. We miss them already and can't wait for next time!! 🐾💜

05/15/2024

To our Kreature family - we are so unbelievably honored that you continue to trust us with your babies. 💜

Starting today through the first week of July, we will be closed to any additional boardings beyond what is currently scheduled!

If you are interested in in-home sitting please reach out as availability is limited with vacation season upon us. And thank you for your patience as we work through simplifying the booking process 🥰

Whether your babies have four legs or two, wishing a happy mother's day to all those who have raised and cared for another soul. Thank you for giving a big piece of your heart, so that another may find safety, happiness and love within it 🐾💖

Just look at those eyes!!! Last weekend we welcomed first-timer Izzy the Dobie to the Kreature Koven, and she won are hearts with those beautiful eyes!!

𝘿𝙄𝘿 𝙔𝙊𝙐 𝙆𝙉𝙊𝙒?!

Here are a few fun facts about Dobermans:

Dobermans are highly intelligent and trainable, ranking among the smartest dog breeds. They're quick learners and thrive on mental stimulation.

Dobermans are often used in search and rescue operations due to their keen sense of smell and strong tracking abilities.

Historically, their ears were cropped and their tails docked for aesthetic and practical reasons, but these practices are becoming less common due to changes in regulations and preferences.

Many celebrities have owned Dobermans, including Mariah Carey, William Shatner, and Walt Disney.

We love our Dobie friends!!

It's a paw-ty here this weekend at the Kreature Koven! Left to right is Chanel, Akira and Carson! While I typically only board one household at a time, these babies are actually friends! Each has a different personality and it has been so fun watching them 🥰

Butters is learning about traction today 😂

04/10/2024

Update on Mr. Butters! He has been WONDERFUL to have as a guest!

He is very mild mannered and mostly lounges all day 💤 He gets along well with little Olive. He has a healthy curiosity but gives her space. He is ALWAYS ready to play, when you are! He needs a little encouragement to go in the crate but once there he settles easily and without a peep. He sleeps through the night and has a healthy appetite for breakfast lunch and dinner. 😋 Butters is also housebroken - not a single accident during his time with us. He was caught digging outside once, but does very well with corrections.

This handsome man very clearly loves to snuggle 🤗 and will greet you with a belly rub request. 😂🥰 He is going to make a home very, very happy!!

Unless adopted, Butters will be at the Kreature Koven until the 18th before he moves to another foster. If interested in adopting Butters, you can find his adoption application through Animal Advocates of North Texas 💜 Sasha’s Pals

Carson is getting lots of r&r in his vacation... and he found (what's turning into) the community Koven couch 😂 So of course we had to give him a little blanket for maximum comfort to match that maximum yawn!!

04/06/2024

This weekend, we're excited to welcome another first time vacationer, Carson!

This handsome man is an 8 year old American Bully. He isn't much one for toys, but LOVES treats and back scratchies. Same buddy, same 💜

Can we all just take a moment to appreciate the booty wiggles?? 🥹🥹 It's that time of year in Texas (as if we need a reminder) where temps start to soar rapidly. Remember to check the concrete - if it's too hot for your hand it's too hot for their paws! Always bring water for yourself and for your babies, and aim for early mornings or late nights when the sun is a little gentler. Dogos have less of a tolerance than we do although make sure to take care of yourself too! Heat stroke is serious and can turn deadly quickly, so it's important to know the signs. Check links in bio for tips on keeping your babies safe!

Joey & Wentz had the best time ever on their vacation!! Joey wasted no time picking out his new squirrel, while Wentz made sure Hersheys was exactly what he wanted! These first timers were so much fun and we can't wait to see them again soon!! 💜

Chop loved this peanut butter cookie from @3dogbakeryarlington. He however did not love me trying to get the crusty off his eyes while he chomped 🤣 #bulliesofig #bulldogsofinstagram #bulliesofinstagram #dontbullymybreed #shopsmall #shoplocal #supportsmallbusiness

Ace went home tonight after a very short visit. See what he picked out for his take-home-toy!

Special thank you to Grand Prairie Animal Services and Adoption Center, Karson Goldbach and Sasha’s Pals and every person to like, comment and share Butter's way into the path of his new family. We will miss this amazing guy but are so SO excited for his new family. They are going to love you to peices buddy!!!
