Includes activities to stimulate the mind and body, participating in our daily life; toy time, play yard, companionship, choice of healthy treats and snacks (over 50 kinds), and of course, lots of love.

Soothing music, flower essences, peaceful colors, etc. are used for a calming and relaxing atmosphere

Medications administered as needed (no extra charge).

Private kennel with fleecy bed or our dog couch for naps.

Daily information of what and how your dog did during their stay.

Adding to our Day Care menu, your canine will also receive healthy, nutritious meals, with vitamins and supplements, oral dental care (Petzlife), email reports, medications, and any special considerations as requested.

Participating in doggie food and treat taste tests is always great fun, and informational.

We are happy to feed your dog's own special diet, at no extra charge.

Add to your pet's pampering experience by including extras such as TTouch training (balances mind and body) sessions, grooming, baths, special training, extra exercise, homemade meals, and more.

Special Training:
Choose your pet's extra curricular activity preferences* from agility, obedience, TTouch Confidence Playground, flyball, tricks, pulling (skijor, mush, weight pull, etc.) canine freestyle (dancing with dogs), tracking, pilates and more.

*Weather permitting

Other considerations:
For safety reasons, just as our own dogs would, dogs may be kenneled at times. Dogs under a year of age must have a (negative) fecal or show proof of worming in the last 30 days. Because it is our private residence, dogs with severe grooming needs (severe odors, dirt, etc.) may be required to be groomed or bathed (a service we can provide). Upon receipt of your Boarding/Day Care request, and verification of date availability, a $25 non-refundable deposit is required, to guarantee and hold your reservation. We will send you an email confirming receipt of your request, as well as check list of more detailed information we may need.

Rain, snow or shine, your pet is prepared!

Jenny happily races around the play yard after a new snow fall. We provide raincoats and waterproof, sherpa lined parkas, as needed, for your pet to wear while staying with us, during our inclement weather days, at no extra charge.

Flyball anyone?...and other activities

Your dog might enjoy learning flyball, especially if they are a "TBA" (tennis ball addict) dog. Add-on activities like beginning scent/tracking games, canine freestyle, pulling (skijoring, mushing, weight pull), and tricks are also some of the extra-curriculars we offer.

Treats and toys, galore!

Your pet has a wide variety of treats and toys to sample from and play with during their stay with us. We love to let them try lots, to see what their favorite choices are. (We'll let you know their special favorites!)

While healthy treats and enticing toys are included as a part of the fun for your canine, (and food with Boarding guests) while they are here, you can also purchase most of these items, to take home with you.

Full grooming and bathing services are available!

Shylee looks and feels like a million dollars after her exquisite grooming at Canines Unlimited. We are a certified, professional all-breed groomer. Grooming services are an add-on item.

Homemade gourmet meals available! (Cooked or raw)

Yes, you could eat this! (In fact, we did have it for dinner, after taking the pictures-delicious!) But we prepare it for your dog, served in glass dishes (no toxic plastic leaching, or magnetic affects of stainless steel dishes) to affect the high energy and nutrition of this meal. Served with or without grains, offering a variety of proteins and vegetables (and grains), according to your specifications. Homemade meals are an add-on item.

Add as a one time gourmet meal for an extra special treat or occasion (birthday?), or everyday, for the very healthiest, highest nutrition we can offer.

Ingredients of this sample (cooked) meal (at left): Grilled chicken (Foster Farms boneless, skinless, no artificial ingredients), organic brown rice (far left), organic green beans, organic carrots, sustainably farmed summer squash and broccoli.

Vitamins, minerals, omega 3 & supplements included!

All of our overnight guests, receive an all natural (no synthetics) vitamin and mineral supplement, omega 3's (from fish and other natural sources), and enzymes, regardless of which diet you choose to have served to your pet. This is included, at no extra charge.

We are happy to include any other supplementation you provide, as well as administer medications, also at no extra charge.

We provide for your pet's safety and comfort!

Ready for her winter evening "constitutional", Jenny is suited up in her snuggly warm waterproof, sherpa lined parka, PupLight for night time visibility and safety, and TTouch comfort balance harness (leash shoulder attachment over her point of balance). (Avoids the unnecessary, spinal flexing of harnesses that attach further down the back.)

Even when you can't see the dog, you know where they are from the PupLight beam on the ground, seen from any direction! (Mora demos at right)

These extras are included during your pet's stay with us, at no extra charge.

Doggie Food Taste Tests!

Jenny is delighted to participate in the Doggie Food Taste Tests. Here she is trying out some of The Honest Kitchen foods (whole foods). She liked them all , with a slight preference for chicken. All of our Boarding Dogs (overnighters) get to taste test a number of foods. We'll let you know the results! This is included in our Boarding Services, at no extra charge.

Training and problem solving is available!

From puppies to adult dogs, we can provide basic training and work with problem solving issues such as house training, separation anxiety, jumping on people, fear of noises, leash pulling, inappropriate mouthing and nipping, excessive barking, and more. We are a certified TTouch Practitioner/Trainer, and have been a certified evaluator for Canine Good Citizen, Therapy Dogs International, Therapy Dogs Incorporated, and trained in Delta Society therapy pet evaluation.

Training and problem solving are add-on items.

Indoors or outside, there is lots to do!

Tunnels and other agility and confidence playground activities are fun to do, and build confidence and balance.
These training items are add-on features.

TTouch is wonderful!

TTouch, a system of body work and groundwork exercises, works to balance the mind, body and spirit. Now used all over the world, on humans and animals, it has proven to be a simple, effective, noninvasive tool for relaxing, focusing and training the body to reach it's perfect balance. We use TTouch in all our training and grooming. You can add TTouch sessions to your dog's stay at Canines Unlimited.
