Safety Measures:
Our kennels are designed to safely board your pets. If your dog is a climber
or digger, please alert our staff so that

dividers between your pet and the other boarders, both for reasons of
safety and so that your pet will be able to relax and sleep without
feeling challenged by his or her neighbors.
