Who are we? We are dog people. Enough said

This is our passion. This is our life. We ethically breed exceptional quality Golden Retrievers. We train and show our dogs successfully in obedience, agility, conformation and other performance venues. Our more than 25 years experience mentoring puppy owners has naturally lead us to where we are today. We really know what matters to our canine guests and their human pet guardians. Our success lies in our experience and knowledge and we are dedicated to improving all aspects of dogs’ lives, from mental and physical health to better relationships and happier social lives. We realize life is truly too short for our dogs and that every single day is a gift with them. Anything we can do to make their lives the best it possibly can be is so important to us.

Bed & Biscuit 

You will only feel guilty when you take your dog home

How familiar is this scenario: you need to go away for work or travel, but you know that leaving your dog in a traditional kennel, with family or friends just is not the safest or most reliable option – for them, for your dog, or for you.

Now what if you could actually feel good about leaving your dog in the care of experienced and knowledgeable care providers in a uniquely different facility? What if, when you came to pick up your pet, you discovered that they enjoyed their stay and were better off for having the experience? The peace of mind you would feel would be priceless.

When you decide to stay at Wet Noses Bed and Biscuit, you choose peace of mind. You choose to unburden yourself of worries about accidents, vet bills, reliability and incompetent care.

Your decision will be reassured when you return again to Wet Noses and your dog gets excited just turning into our driveway, your grin will match that confident wagging tail. You will only feel guilty when you take your dog home.

Reserve today and give your dog the gift of a happy holiday with us.
