Rebel Ridge Farms

Rebel Ridge Farms is a dog boarding and daycare kennel at 295 Woods Road in Elkton, MD, set on a farm with fenced fields and walking trails. Along with overnight stays, it offers grooming and training, and the property has a strong retriever-training focus.

What is the kennel like?

Dogs stay in 45 spacious indoor/outdoor runs with privacy walls. Five of them are double-sized runs for large family groups, so dogs from the same household can stay together. The building has radiant floor heat, central air conditioning, and a dedicated air circulation system to keep the runs comfortable year-round.

Outside, the farm has 13 fenced and lighted exercise fields, plus walking trails around the property. The kennel calls itself an all breed kennel. Its own description stresses keeping dogs comfortable and less stressed while they're away from home.

What services does it offer?

• Overnight dog boarding, plus cat boarding in a cattery
• Dog daycare
• Grooming, with a free bath after 7 nights of boarding
• Individual exercise programs: a 20-minute walk, swim, or playtime
• Retriever training

The individual exercise sessions are worth a look for high-energy dogs or longer stays. They add one-on-one time on top of the regular routine.
