How Our Rates Work

Rates are per day - just like the charge would be when you stay at a motel.  There will be a full day’s charge regardless of the time that your pet checks in.  If the pet is checked out and picked up between 9-10am, there will be no charge for that day.  If the pet is picked up after that time slot, there will be a full day's charge.  

Outside Lodging

Our Outside Lodging has an insulated dog house and the 10'x5'x6' kennels are completely covered.  The price for the Outside Lodging is discounted for all boarders and is $26 per day.

Inside Lodging

Our Inside Lodging has the same size kennels, but is in the lodge with air conditioning/heat and pet cots are provided. The price for the Inside Lodging is $32 per day. If your pet has been trained at TLK, Inside Lodging is offered at a discounted rate of $30 per day.

Doggie Day Camp

We also provide Doggie Day Camp to those who just want their pet to come for a day of fun.  It does not include an overnight stay and the price for this activity is $32 per day, no discounts apply.

Before/After Hours

If you need to schedule a pick up or drop off time prior to or after operating hours on Monday-Saturday, there will be a $15 charge. 

Our hours are:

Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday -  9am to 5pm

Wednesday and  Saturdays - 9am to 12pm

We are closed Sundays and holidays for drop offs/pickups -  no exceptions.  We thank you for your consideration and understanding.

Females in Heat/Intact Males

If your dog is not spayed and goes into heat while she is here, there will be an additional charge of $5 a day.  Intact male dogs over 12 months of age will be charged an additional $4 per day for boarding.

Extra-Large Dogs/Certain Breeds

We charge an additional fee ($5-$20/day) for XL dogs and certain breeds, at our discretion.

• Basic Obedience Training is a 7 day program and the price ranges between $725-750, depending on the age and breed.   Boarding charges during our 7 day program are 30% off the regular boarding price. (*see note below).  If the pet needs to stay beyond 7 days,  regular daily boarding charges will be applied.
• Behavioral Training is a 7 day program and the price starts at $750-800 depending on the age, breed and particular issues.  This training addresses any issues beyond the basic obedience training, such as severe jumping, not coming when called or special issues that are not covered in basic training.  Boarding charges during our 7 day program are 30% off the regular price. (*see note below). If the pet needs to stay beyond 7 days, regular daily boarding charges will be applied.
• Severe Aggression Behavioral Training is a 7-10 day program and costs $850+.  Possible reasons for your dog to need severe aggression behavioral training would be biting and aggression toward people, fear aggression, and extreme fear response (particularly loud stimuli). Boarding charges during our 7 day program are 30% off the regular boarding price. (*see note below). If TLK determines that your pet needs to stay beyond 7 days, regular daily boarding charges will be applied.
• Refresher Course: If you have had your dog trained at TLK and want a refresher course, the charge is $50 plus the discounted boarding rate, with a minimum stay of 2 full days. Please note that a refresher course is a "polishing up," it is not a complete re-training (see New Issue Training).  
• New Issue Training:  If your dog has been trained at TLK and a new training issue arises that you need addressed, we can do training for that, but this does not fall under a "Refresher Course."  It is a new issue and requires additional training.  The cost for this will vary, depending on the issue, but usually is $100-$200. Full boarding charges apply and there will be a 2 day minimum stay.
• New Owner Training:  If you have been given a dog that previously has been trained at TLK, and wish to be instructed on our training, we offer a session for you as a new owner.  In this session, we will work with you and your dog and walk you through the training.  The cost for this is $100 and please note that a Refresher Course may also need to be given which is an additional $50.  (see above - Refresher Course).
  

Twin Lakes Kennel, LLC reserves the right to have the final assessment on which type of training is needed and certain dog breeds are subject to higher fees, whether there is aggression or not.

Note:  You will need to choose between our Outdoor Lodging and Indoor Lodging during the 7 day training program. Lodging is offered at a 30% discount during training ($125 total for Outdoor Lodging or $150 for Indoor Lodging).

• Medication: If your pet requires medication or vitamins, the cost for administration of pills/vitamins or sprays (which is to be provided by the customer) is $3 per day/per administration.  Cost to administer shots is $10 a day and ear or eye drops are $3 per administration/per day.
• Baths: Bathing is available.  Prices start at $30, depending on pet.
• Food: If the pet owner chooses not to provide food, there will be a $2 per day charge for food.
• Vet Services: If your pet needs to be taken to the vet while at TLK, there is a $50 transportation charge and the owner is responsible for vet charges.
