Boarding

Leaving your dog in the care of a stranger can be an emotional experience. We understand that
At DueNorth, we love dogs as much as you do. Our goal is to provide a clean, safe, healthy and loving environment for your dogs while you are away.

To that end we have designed our operation for your dog's safety and comfort:

Individual Rooms

Open housing so in vogue right now often leads to dog fights, stress and injury. Instead dogs are housed in individual kennels with gates on front so they can still see the other dogs and us as we work in the kennel.

Playtime at Duenorth

We have been doing this for over 20 years and never allow incompatible dogs together at playtime. Some dogs love being with others, some don't, some can be choosy. We recognize the difference and are expert at selecting playmates, but safety always comes first.

Heated Floors

We have Kuranda cots for each dog but you can bring his own bed or whatever makes her comfortable, but the floor is heated so we find most dogs prefer to lie directly on it.

Feeding

Any diet, from kibble to homemade or raw and any medication regime can be accommodated, at no additional charge (within reason).

Location

DueNorth boarding kennels is located in a pleasant country setting a short drive from Peterborough or Lakefield.

Most Affordable

Boarding for one dog is $30 per day. Add an extra dog in the same kennel for just $15 per day.

Dogs Love Us

Our kennel is so popular with our guests that the dogs of a regular client some distance away recently ran away from home and turned up at DueNorth's gate waiting to get in! We can't give you a better testimonial than that!

You can rest, assured that your four legged family member will be safe, comfortable and as happy as he can be in your absence.

What We Need from You
When you book your kennel by phone we will email you a questionnaire so we can know about your dog. This also includes a veterinary release in case we had to take your dog to the vet.
When you come, we will ask that you bring a copy of the vaccination record which should include Bordetella (kennel cough). In the case of dogs imported or rescued from another country a veterinary certificate indicating the dog is not carrying Brucellosis will also be required.
