About The Ranch


You can feel and smell the fresh air of the Bluewater Creek!  At DAK’s Dog Ranch we offer multiple large outdoor play areas on our all together 45-acre property.  Your dogs will enjoy playing on several obstacle courses, sandboxes and be able to cool off in our dog pools!


Our ranch has shaded areas and fenced-in play yards with natural grass, and plenty of room to run, wrestle and play!  We even have walking trails! Our goal is to give each canine guest the individual care and attention that they need...including raw feeding and all types of medication administration.

​

When you are looking for the best in accommodations in Northern Alabama for your dog(s), nothing less than DAK’s Dog Ranch will do!  We can pick up your dog(s) and return them to you at the end of the day or board them as many nights and days as you need.

​

Take comfort in knowing that at DAK’s Dog Ranch, they will spend their time in a clean, happy and safe environment with a home away from home setting.

Time cruches happen, we understand. For your convenience, we offer pick-up and drop-off services for your dog(s), and even will meet within 30 miles of DAK's Dog Ranch. We will pickup and/or drop off your doggo(s) to or from your home as long as it is within a 30 mile radius.

Included

Some of our canine guests are on a special or raw food diet. We are happy to freeze or refridgerate your dog's raw food to ensure it stays fresh. If your dog is on a special diet, no problem, just bring us their food and feeding instructions when you drop them off.

Included

If your pooch is on medication, we are happy to administer their meds (pills, liquid or injections) during their stay. We ask that you provide instructions on dosages and how often to administer when you drop them off.

FAQS

Here are answers to some common questions

  • 1) What are your rates?

    Scroll right back towards the top of this page. The rates are right below the reviews section.

  • 2) Can I take an in-person tour of your facility?

    Absolutely! Just call me to schedule a mutually convenient time.

  • 3) Are all dogs welcome for boarding and daycare?

    I do not have breed restrictions for my canine guests. However, your dog does have to be friendly to the ranch staff and if he/she has any personality quirks or traits, please let me know on the boarding contract. For daycare, your dog must be dog-friendly to participate in the playgroup.

  • 4) My dog is not spayed or neutered. Is that a problem?

    No it's not, however, if your female is in heat, she can not visit the ranch at that time.

  • 5) My dog is booked, what do I need to bring?

    First and foremost, you need to bring your dog. Also bring his/her collar, leash, enough food for their stay (+ 1 day), any medications (if required) along with instructions on how / when to administer, and any toys or bedding (optional).


    A signed boarding contract and proof of rabies vaccination must be provided prior to your dog(s) stay.

  • 6) What are your drop off and pickup times?

    Boarding Pick-Up and Drop-Off Hours:


    Monday-Sunday: 8:15 AM - 10:00 AM

                                    5:15 PM - 6:30 PM


    If you pick up your dog from boarding in the afternoon, you will be charged $30/per dog for daycare for that day.

  • 7) Are your kennels climate controlled?

    Yes, all of our boarding packages are climate controlled (both A/C and heat).

  • 8) What forms of payments do you accept and when is payment due?

    Payment is due when your dog is dropped off. I accept cash, check (made out to: DAK's Dog Ranch) and Venmo (@Sabrina-Trussell).

  • 9) What vaccinations are required?

    Your dog(s) needs to be current on rabies. If your dog is too young to be vaccinated against rabies, he/she will still be welcome here, however, he/she will be boarded separate from other canine guests.
