About Happy K9 Academy
Happy K9 Academy’s boarding facility is staffed 24/7 365 days a year to ensure we give the best experience possible to each pup in our care! We intentionally keep our boarding facility small so we can spend a generous amount of time one on one with each dog to meet their mental, emotional and physical needs! We provide reward based training through group classes, stay and train programs and private training lessons!

We brought our Dog Nora to Happy k9 because our son was getting married in the Virgin Islands. She is a 9 year old Yorkiepoo and had never been boarded or away from us for more than a few days. She is a nervous Nelly and ended up having stomach issues while there. The staff took wonderful care of her. They kept me informed every step of the way. They started by giving her chicken and rice and when that didn’t help they called our vet. The vet gave them medication to give her. I was a mess being so far away and not there for her, but they made me feel much better. I knew she was in good hands. All of the staff was wonderful and took excellent care of her (and me). If we had to board her again I wouldn’t go anywhere else.
I have a labradoodle puppy. He is learning so much at puppy school. Highly recommend! All of the staff is so caring and Snoopy loves going! I know he is in excellent care and Snoopy comes home happy after a full day of playing, learning, and receiving lots of love!
My young Labrador has been in stay and train since May. She has made amazing progress over these months with Mel and staff. Mel sends weekly videos and updates and is available to answer any questions. Highly recommend for training.
Bullwinkle had a wonderful stay at Happy K9 Academy. The staff took excellent care of him and kept us informed about his activities. We highly recommend Happy K9 Academy for anyone whose “fur baby” needs to be boarded.
