The Fuzzy Farm

The Fuzzy Farm is a dog boarding and daycare kennel on a horse farm in Peters Township, PA, in the Pittsburgh area. Each dog stays in its own indoor/outdoor run and goes out to play in fenced yards several times a day. Overnight boarding costs $45 per night, and reservations are made by phone.

What are the kennel runs like?

Every dog gets an individual run with indoor and outdoor space, about 5 by 15 feet in total. The building is heated in winter and air conditioned in summer. Each run has a raised Kuranda cot and stainless steel bowls.

How much exercise do dogs get?

Playtime is included in the nightly rate. Dogs go out at least three times a day into one of two large fenced play yards. Owners who want more activity can add a walk on the farm's 100 acres of trails.
