Our hours on the weekends do change in the Winter vs. Summer. We would hate to have you make a trip and not have us be open. Please take a look at season changes.
We hope you enjoy going though our web site. Our site has lots of photos for your viewing pleasure and as a means to enable you to obtain a good idea about the services we provide and who we are in relation to our kennel services; especially with our "Day Care" program.
