Dogs and cats are housed in comfortable, private runs or kennels, ensuring individual attention and safety. Most kennels feature radiant heat for cozy sleeping areas, and clients are welcome to bring their own bedding. Dogs have access to beautiful courtyards and pasture views, with options for off-leash playtime in fenced yards or on-leash walks through the farm.

Obedience Training Programs

Charlton Kennels offers comprehensive obedience training, including a 30-day program and a 10-day "Head-start Puppy Program." Refresher training is also available for previous clients. The facility emphasizes positive interaction and cannot board aggressive dogs.
