What we have learned since opening our "Dog Ranch" in September '07.
Our biggest problem is not knowing of another place like this to recommend when customers call and we're booked up. (Lately, we book up a month or more in advance of the big holidays)
A pretty nice place, that we now recommend when we're full is Camp Bow Wow on Whitten Rd. near the Interstate (I-40).

Dogs absolutely love our doggie resort!
We wish we did this 20 years ago??? What a Wonderful Life!
Our fees for day care and overnight stays are so reasonable we're proud to print them on our home page.
Our guests' daily routine that has evolved goes roughly like this:
7:45am - Out to the pasture for 20 minutes exercise.
8:15am - Breakfast
8:30am - Out to the pasture for another 30 minutes or so playtime & exercise.
About every 3 hours, outside to potty and play for 20 to 40 minutes at a time depending on weather.
6 to 7pm - Supper, followed by 20 minutes outside.
10:30pm - 10 minute outside potty break, then bedtime.
Dogs with shyness problems consistently develop excellent social skills during their stays here.
We have many repeat guests.
Our guest dogs really like their sleeping quarters, be it in barn (Bunk House) or in our house. They willingly go back inside.
New dogs consistently "pack up" and develop close relationships with other dogs quickly.
It is amazing to see how easily different breeds of dogs play and pack together without hassels.
Cesar Milan's "Pack Leader" style (Calm Assertive Leadership) is vital to our success because it works! We rarely have "incidents" involving aggression, and those are quickly controlled.
We practice Cesar's: EXERCISE, DISCIPLINE, AFFECTION method with great success.

|  | Many of our guests actually end up living and sleeping in the house with us, especially small breed dogs and older big dogs with good house manners.
Within a very short time (an hour or two) our house guests act as if they lived here all their lives.
|
| With plenty of free time in our 3+ acre pasture, dogs get to live like dogs:
Sporting dogs get to run and fetch to their heart's content.
Working dogs get to just plain RUN!
Beagles get to sniff forever!
Older dogs like to play a while then find a comfortable place to just lay out and relax.
FINALLY,
We enjoy having a place full of "happy dogs" even more than we ever dreamed!
Our dogs don't live with us, we live with our dogs!

And us Labs are the most popular dogs in America, so we know what we're talking about! |
