HOW TO KEEP COOL IN THE SUMMER!

Bathing
If you would like for your pet to be bathed before being picked up, please indicate this on the reservation form.  We offer bathing every day EXCEPT Wednesday and Saturday.  Please plan to pick up your pet after 10:30 AM if a bath is requested, and indicate pick-up time on the reservation form.

NOW AVAILABLE!
All dogs get 45 – 60 minutes outside time in the yards around the barn 2 to 3 times daily.  That time can be alone or paired with others for playtime.  Would you like for your dog to have more than that?  Now available:  We will take your dog to the orchard out front and spend one-on-one time with him/her.  We can just sit there and watch squirrels together or we can play Frisbee or chuck-it tennis ball.  We can even just have some supervised sniffing time.  Please let us know at check-in if you would like a little extra for your dog.  (Weather Permitting)
30 minutes = $10/day

FYI:  Effects of Stress on Dogs
At Badger Creek Kennels, we do everything possible to ensure that your pet’s stay is comfortable and stress-free.  Please understand, however, that boarding can be stressful for some animals, no matter how much loving care is provided.  They are in strange surroundings with people they do not know, and their daily routine is changed from the home environment.  No matter the age of the pet, he or she may become stressed by these changes.

While stress does not cause illnesses, it is well documented that it can cause an underlying illness to surface.  That is, the pet has had the illness for some time, but not until the animal is stressed does the illness show up.  This can include viral or bacterial illnesses.  We do everything we can to ensure a safe and sanitary environment which minimizes exposure to bacteria and viruses; however, we are unable to control all conditions or airborne particles.  Thank you for your understanding.
