At Salishan Boarding Kennel, our goal is to provide a comfortable, safe country stay for your canine family member. Our new boarding facility boasts two buildings specifically designed for the professional and first class care of your pets.

We are not a large boarding kennel establishment. Instead, we prefer to compare ourselves to a small, boutique hotel for dogs. We limit the number of guests staying with us so that we can provide a quality, personalized service for every pet in our care. With fewer numbers, we can offer longer play times in our securely-fenced Rainforest Run and more hands on attention tailored to fit each animal's needs.

We also customize the play times in the off-leash area to keep our guests safe, and we adjust every turnout to match each dog's personality. (Please see our Accommodations section for more photos of and details about these features.)

Since 1993, we have bred, raised, trained, worked and competed with an active small breed dog (Jack Russell Terriers). Over the years, we have also shared our home with Dobermans, German Shepherds and Great Danes. Decades of hands on involvement have given us extensive, professional knowledge in the proper care and handling of canines.

Simply put - we understand dogs.

We also understand how important it is to have confidence and peace of mind when you go away. At Salishan, we make it our mission to keep your pet safe, clean and happy, while providing a pleasant, stimulating environment. You can rest assured that your dog is well cared for by people who know what they are doing. You can trust us with your pet.

We invite you to browse through the menu at left where we provide more kennel and service-related details, as well as additional photos of our facility and property. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have questions or concerns not addressed on this website.

Thank you for taking the time to visit Salishan Boarding Kennel. We hope that you will consider our services for your pet.
