DUBLIN CREEK KENNEL IS RECOGNIZED BY THE CITY FOR 30 YEARS OF SERVICE TO THE COMMUNITY
The City of Dublin is recognizing Dublin Creek for it's 30 years of service to the community!  Dublin Creek Kennel has been owned by us for the past 16 years, but the kennel has been in existence for the past 30 years.  We are proud and happy to be able to offer this service to the people of Dublin and surrounding cities.


SEE WHAT'S NEW
Spring has sprung!  With all the new flowers and changes that Spring brings we have some beautiful new things that we want to share with you as well!  We have made even more upgrades to the kennel, utilizing even more of our property to add some exciting new features for your dogs!

Since we have added our training/play yard and introducing the enrichment activities for our canine guests, we have seen how beneficial this is to the dogs in our care.  Clients tell us how happy their dogs are to come and board with us and how much they enjoy seeing their dog's pictures on Facebook while they are away.  We agree and see how much the dogs love and appreciate their one on one time with our staff.  So, we decided to add another wonderful space to offer the dogs more play time.

Mental stimulation and enrichment are not only fun for the dogs but they also burn energy and help to keep the dogs calm and relaxed.  After a nice play session the dogs will frequently nap and spend the afternoon resting calmly.  It is a service that we are very proud to offer and excited to be able to give to your dogs. Very few facilities offer one-on-one play like we offer at Dublin Creek.  We take great pride in the individual attention we offer to our guests.  We feel they benefit greatly from that individual attention and care that they are used to getting at home.

Our new play yard consists of built in tunnels, cement and grass to play on and a HUGE water fountain and pool area.  Dogs that enjoy playing in water will LOVE this area.  We have the option of having the fountain on or off, the pool open so water can drain or with a stopper that we can put in to create an actual pool of water.  In addition, we have installed a wall from beginning to end which blocks off the view of the yard from the dogs that are boarding.  So, the dogs playing don't disrupt the boarding dogs.  Take a look at some of our guests enjoying the new play area.





We will be using both play areas for our enrichment activities.  In addition to our activities, we also offer stuffed Kongs which gives dogs additional mental stimulation.

DUBLIN CREEK ANIMAL FOUNDATION
As you know, we are deeply involved in animal rescue.  It isn't unusual for us to have several dog and cat rescue animals living with us who are waiting to find forever homes.  Most of our animals come to us from animal shelters, usually just before they will be euthanized.  We will also sometimes take in animals from different sources that are also in desperate need.  For instance, we just found a wonderful loving home for Sugar Bear, a 4 year old Border Collie, whose owner passed away.  Sugar's owners dying wish was that Sugar find a permanent, loving home.  We heard that and immediately agreed to take Sugar in and fulfill his owner's wish.  We are happy to say that Sugar was adopted, but we still have many wonderful, loving dogs that are looking for forever homes.  Please send your friends to our website to see our adoptable dogs.  Better yet, have them call us and arrange to come and meet some of these great individuals.  We currently have several very wonderful animals, take a look at a few of them here.  All of these wonderful animals, Faye, Jimmy, Stanley, Mike and Amara are with us and awaiting the arrival of their perfect, forever someone.  Maybe it could be you!
