How is it different from a traditional kennel?

Boarding here is cage-free. Dogs share two large indoor buildings with a combined 7,000 square feet, furnished with comfy couches and beds. Staff group dogs by size and activity level, so play partners are a closer match. Supervision runs 24 hours a day, which answers the common worry about what happens overnight.

What training credentials does the ranch list?

The ranch lists three training credentials: Certified Pet Dog Trainer through the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers, membership in the Association of Pet Dog Trainers, and AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluator. For owners who want manners work or behavior help during a stay, those credentials are worth knowing about.

What should owners know before booking?

K-9 Divine accepts small, medium, large and giant dogs. Vaccinations are required for dogs staying at the ranch. Booking is done online through ProPet. Questions can go to 202.769.5359 or k9divine@k-9divine.com.
