Our facility is located on 5 acres in the beautiful Willamette Valley, 10 miles west of Salem, near Dallas, Oregon. We pride ourselves on being one of the finest pet boarding facilities
in the state.
The Shaggy Dog boarding facility was founded in 1989. Stringent guidelines set forth by the American Boarding Kennel Association (now Pet Care Services Association) were followed. Shelly Richardson has operated The Shaggy Dog boarding kennel since October of 2000. Shelly's love of all animals has inspired her to create a friendly and inviting home away from home for your pet, where she and her staff provide full service dog and cat boarding, grooming, and doggy daycare. Since early 2001, the facility has undergone numerous upgrades to provide the best of the best accommodations for your pets stay with us. At The Shaggy Dog, our passion for pets and our commitment to our customers has made us who we are today. Our goal is to insure that every pet that stays with us has such a positive experience that they can't wait to come see us again.
