This is offered for all puppies that are sold by us as well as puppy that are 6 months or older and have all their shots. Puppies that are sold by us can either stay with us an additional month before going home or come back at 16 weeks. Puppies that are brought in to the program will stay a month from their drop off date. Contact us for pricing.

No kitchen, no furniture etc.

 

*Payment for puppies that are purchased from D.O.K. must be paid for by 8 weeks and training must be paid for by pickup. Payment(s) for puppies that are dropped off will need to be paid before the puppy is taken home, 50% down required on dogs not purchased at D.O.K.

 

 

Crate Training--1 Month

Your puppy will learn to love their crate, which will keep everyone sane. This will also help to potty train your puppy. It would be best if you had a crate that is no bigger than your puppy, or at least a blanket you want them to have in their crate at home. Crates either wire or plastic can be purchased from me at an additional cost, as well as waterproof mats. THIS IS NOT HOUSE TRAINING! THIS WILL NOT MEAN YOUR PUPPY WILL BE SAFE TO FREELY ROAM YOUR HOME UNSUPERVISED! 

*All of your puppies items need to be clearly marked with their identification.

*What to bring for your puppy:

1. Food and water dishes.

2. No more than one toy.

3. A blanket or mat to put in their kennel. 

4. Food and any medication they may need.  

 

*Note that Desert Oasis Kennels is not responsible for any damage done to items brought in by owner for their puppy. Puppies are destructive, therefore we cannot guarantee your items to stay intact.

BOARDING

WE DO NOT CHARGE MORE FOR HOLIDAY BOARDING.

Going to a concert at the Gorge, but didn't know they changed their pet policy! We are here to help! Last minute boarding openings are available at Desert Oasis Kennels. Or maybe just going out of town and need somewhere for your pet to stay? Or how about going to work and don't want to leave your pup at home alone, bring them over for the day and let them play. Holidays are coming up as well, book your pets for boarding now!

I have a family of 4 kids and have 2 young teens that work for me that are very respectful of pups to help them get the attention they need while you're away or busy. We offer regular walks, weather dependent, but included in our cost. Dogs are boarded indoor with temperature controlled areas. There is a new set of runs that are 14.5ftx23ftx6ft tall for exercise. These are used weather Dependent. 

 The main building kennel are solid walled rooms that are 4x8 and one that is the suite that is 6x8. We are equipped to deal with females in heat, though this is an extra charge. We can work with dogs that do not do well boarding or have separation anxiety. We have experience with all sizes and temperaments. We have worked with snub nosed dogs as well. The facility is at our house so we are with your pets often.

We do have our own pets here and do require that your pets are vaccinated. Please call or text for any questions. Discounts for multiple dogs or extended stays.
