Canine Country Club

We have been bringing our dog (and the 2 previous dogs) to CCC for 10 yrs. They are in a lovely country setting south of Mpls-​StPaul. It is like a second family for our «baby». The owners/​managers are there onsite, always, even after the dogs are put to bed. All staff is friendly & professional.
The dogs go out for supervised playtime several times a day. Doggie personalities are matched for the maximum fun playtime, and elimination of conflicts. When our previous dog was elderly, he was in the «geriatric wing», with dogs in similar situations, similar sizes. They would quietly go about their business, with a little sniffing here & there, no annoying puppies or big dogs to accidently hurt them. Our other dogs have been in the «party wing», where there is much more playtime activity, playing with other dogs & staff. Dogs are supervised at all times by experienced staff that are trained to prevent conflicts, look for signs of behavior changes (which could lead to or indicate problems) and interact for socialization.
This kennel is so unlike any other kennel we’ve ever used. Our dog is so happy when he gets there, we call it «camp» not a kennel. He is also happy when we pick him up, (not stressed like other kennel experiences). Barking is minimal, usually when dogs are coming or going. Generally it is quiet, with all dogs tired out from all their playtimes, (not constant barking like other kennels). When ours comes home, he sleeps & rests, (not pent up like coming home from other kennels). The facility is kept clean & orderly, and you can see it yourself by appointment, (to ensure staff is available to tour you around & take care of all our canine friends). Tell them Ziggy sent you!
Their prices are very reasonable for overnights, and they are doing daycare now as well. They also board cats.
