BOARDING

Oak Spring Kennels, Inc., a proud member of the American Boarding Kennel Association, is a modern boarding facility located just north of Belvidere in the suburb of Poplar Grove, Illinois.

For the safety of our guests, the  owners live on the premises, and the entire kennel area is surrounded by a security fence.  We work very hard at making Oak Spring Kennels the best possible place for your dog to stay when away from home.  It’s our goal to ensure that each guest receives the personal attention that they are used to, and we invite you to tour our kennel  during regular business hours or by appointment.

Each dog has a private kennel.  Twelve foot ceilings and excellent ventilation add to your dog’s comfort.  Weather permitting, dogs have access to private patios which are covered for protection from the rain and sun.  Heated floors and gas forced heat keep our guests comfortable even on the coldest winter nights.

What to bring for you pet's stay
Shot Records
To Ensure the medical safety of all our guests, every dog staying at Oak Spring Kennels must provide proof of the following current, veterinarian-administered vaccines: DHLLPP-type distemper shot, a rabies vaccination and a vaccination for Bordetella (kennel cough).  All must be given within the past year of the date of departure.  A copy of these records will be kept in your dog’s file.

Dog Food
We feed Royal Canin to our dogs and our kennel guests.  If your dog is on a special food from your veterinarian or if you would like to bring your own dog food, please put it in an airtight sealed container.  Any uneaten food will be returned to you upon departure.
