Dog Boarding

Location

The Acreage Experience

Our Property

Westrock Kennels is located within the Foothills County on a rural 7-acre property, approximately 5 minutes east of High River, Alberta. Type "Westrock Kennels" or "514004 160 St E" into google maps.

Our Property

The Acreage Experience

Our Property

Our facility is small with limited kennel spots available. Each kennel stall as indoor/outdoor access. Being a small kennel allows us to have personalized one on one time with every dog. The perimeter of our 7 acre property is fully fenced. We also have two, 6-foot high fenced dog parks - this allows dogs to run and play outside even when the training field is being utilized. Our kennel and property are set-up for the intake of medium and large breeds only. 

The Acreage Experience

The Acreage Experience

The Acreage Experience

We specialize in caring for high energy dog breeds with high exercise needs. Dogs are adequately exercised off leash as they run around the fully fenced property, swim in the pond (weather permitting), play with other dogs, or spend one on one time with Steve or Marissa. When a dog boards with us, they are treated like a member of our family.

No, we do not have a discounted rate if you are boarding multiple dogs or if you prefer they share the same kennel stall.


Yes, we board puppies as long as their vaccines are fully up to date.


Yes, we board intact males and females (sometimes). If you have an intact male, they will be separated from other males at all times to mitigate unwanted behaviors. If you have an intact female, you must disclose when her last heat cycle occurred and when her upcoming cycle is due. Because of cycle timelines, we cannot guarantee/ accommodate dates close to her cycle as timelines often vary. If she is young and has not yet had a heat cycle, we can tentatively confirm boarding services. However if she starts to show signs of heat approaching prior to her booking, shows signs upon arrival to our property, or during her stay, you or an emergency contact will be asked to pick her up immediately. We cannot accommodate females in active heat whatsoever as this is disruptive to the operation of the kennel. 


We follow the "2022 AAHA core and non core vaccines for dogs" guideline which is what our Veterinary office follows. We require all dogs to be up to date on their DA2PP (distemper, adenovirus, parvovirus, parainfluenza), rabies, and bordetella (kennel cough) vaccines prior to boarding. 


We recommend you bring your dogs current food with them for the duration of their visit. However, if you run out of food or are looking to trial different food, we can provide Purina pro plan sport dog 30/20 at a rate $5 per day.


Yes, we accommodate raw diets. However, it is mandatory to have each feeding (including supplements and additives) pre-portioned into individual labelled freezer safe bags. These will be stored in the freezer and dethawed prior to the feeding. 


If you feed kibble, please only bring the bag or container of dog food and leave any unnecessary supplements or additives at home.


We can give your dog the necessary chronic medication that they require. We do not intake acutely ill or injured dogs, and therefore do not provide medication for acute illness or injury.


Please refrain from bringing anything other than food and a flat collar around the neck. We have everything else your dog will need for their stay. We will kindly ask you to bring home any additional items brought with you.


Our property has a perimeter fence with a gate at the front entrance. The front gate is locked at times during the day and all throughout the night. We have 24/ 7 video surveillance showing all angles of the property as well as inside the kennel.


Upon completion of any scheduled service, you will receive an invoice from our bookkeeping platform "Xero." This invoice can be paid via e-transfer to steven@westrockkennels.com or via cash in person. We do not accept credit and/or debit at this time.
