“Why would you board your pet in a chain-link cage when they can have their own private suite?”

 

	The way we treat our companion animals has changed drastically in the past thirty years. A Precious Pet Resort was built on the philosophy of those changing attitudes. We feel that the unconditional love your pet gives you everyday should be returned when you have to go away. Based on dog psychology we built our resort from the ground up to provide what we feel is the best, stress-free care possible. If you are confused by the current deluge of kennel ads let’s just state some cold, hard facts. What does Chain-link and guillotine doors offer your dog? No privacy. Dogs walking by a kennel can make eye contact with dogs inside this can be stressful for a nervous dog or cause injury from ‘fence fighting’. The chain-link is noisy. If a dog jumps on it the noise echoes through the building adding stress. Common canine illnesses can spread easily since chain-link is not a ‘barrier’ for diseases. Dogs can gulp down food,(which can cause bloat and vomiting) when they feel other dogs could be a threat due to lack of privacy. The lack of privacy can cause dogs to loose sleep. Fence fighting Guillotine doors give your dog no personal contact all day. Your dogs stay will have no real human contact. You will end up paying extra for any walks, play-time, human or canine contact. If the kennel is extremely busy your dog may not get what you pay for! What does A Precious Pet Resort offer to your cat, dog, bird, or small animal? Privacy. No chain link in the building, we have full-view tinted doors. Den-like environment reduces the spread of canine illness  In the private suites the gulping of food is reduced, which lessens the chance of bloat and vomiting. Dogs can relax easier and sleep better. No fence fighting Dogs are walked from suite to play yard for playtime. Curtains cover the rooms of easily stressed and excited dogs. We are proud to be a member of the Pet Care Services (Formerly the ABKA American Boarding Kennel Association). They provide a free online guide to selecting a pet care facility. http://www.petcareservices.org/index.cfm/lev1/1775 But even that was not enough! Our guarantee to all social dogs is the opportunity to go out and play with other boarders and our day-care dogs every day. Unaltered or aggressive dogs that cannot be safely socialized get alone time with the staff where they can play ball, take a dip in the pool and run around in our large play-area. Since we were built in 2008 we are also very eco-conscious when it comes to the resources we use. It is our goal to make our carbon ‘paw print’ as small as possible! We have radiant heat floors for winter, in the summer because the concrete is set in the ground, the floor is naturally cool.   We also keep the lights in the kennel off for most of the day, which provides a soothing and tranquil atmosphere for the dogs. We also provide therapeutic cots and custom bedding for our doggy guests.  Our cats get custom made climbing ramps and a kitty jungle gym!   We are extremely proud of the quality of care we provide, and the happiness we bring both owners and their pets!  Every part of our facility is available by pet owners to tour during our business hours.  We welcome you to come by for a visit and to meet our staff!   We can’t wait to see you!
