About us

Established in 1995, Power Line Kennels was originally a greyhound racing kennel from 1976. Large or small we care for them all. We are not breed prejudice. We have the knowledge and experience to handle any type of dog behavior. Our smaller facility ensures that our boarding guests get the care and attention that they deserve. We are never over booked, keeping our schedule relaxed, laid back, and casual. Our 10 acre dog farm is known as a playful country hideaway by our satisfied customers. It’s safe, fun, casual, and a fair business. For security and privacy reasons we keep our security gate closed. Our boarding guests get to enjoy regular, private, and individual play times, creating a loving and comforting atmosphere.

All employees are well educated in pet behavior and safety. PLK is parasite free due to us truly being disinfectant freaks and very picky neat nicks. We are tour ready at all times. PLK is an open facility with our furry friends being able to see us, so that they do not feel left alone. We genuinely care for the dogs like they are our own. We enjoy talking to our furry eared friends, showing them affection is the one of the best parts of our job.
