SpecialtiesWhirl Wind Farm Kennel is a full service boarding kennel providing bathing and grooming services, boarding and obedience training all in one convenient place. Obedience classes. Agility classes. Plenty of playtime, we specialize in fun!Because we are such an active kennel, our Pick Up / Drop Off hours are 9-10 a.m. & 3-4 p.m. However, we are there, so you may arrange other hours, up to 5 p.m. - just let us know.Our playtime for dogs costs an additional $5 per playtime and consists of a 10-15 min. walk on a long leash. Your dog determines the length of time and level of activity. The long leash makes your pet feel as loose or as free as possible while still being attached to one of us! lol We do have 3 completely fenced-in areas where your dog can be unleashed for ball throwing, etc. We must know your dog well enough that he/she comes to us when called and would not try to climb/jump over our 4 foot fence. Group play is available ($15). Dog must be dog & people friendly.HistoryEstablished in 1960My Dad, veterinarian Frederick G .Ruder, Jr. V.M.D. built Whirl Wind Farm Kennel when I was 10 yrs. old ! "Doc" built it to further serve our community and that tradition continues today. It truly is "about your pet."With great foresight, he built a beautiful facility, situated on our lovely, country- setting grounds. Your dog's playtime is on mowed grass; four sections covering about an acre and a half. Even the cats, as well as the dogs have their own outdoor runs attached to indoor 'rooms.'The fronts of the dog pens are made of beautiful oak and chain link - not at all 'kennel-y" looking. We have enjoyed painting the inside of the pens in fun colors and design. It is cozy and pleasant.We want your pet to be comfortable! He/she may bring snacks, toys bedding, own food - anything you want !With the loving care we provide 7 days a week, you will know why we call Whirl Wind Farm Kennel "The Next Best Place To Home, For Your Pet!"
