Anyone know about the kennels at FW?

[PlutoBaby]

I used to board my babies at the kennel at the front of FW where you would go to reserve horseback riding etc. The rates were awesome! The last time I used them it was only $13/night per dog. Now I see a doggie daycare chain has taken over and is charging in the $30 range a night. And that doesn't include ANYTHING if I'm reading this right! Has anyone used this service who can tell me more about it? I just want to know if the fees are only for the dogs to hang out in a run all day or if they get to play all day with other dogs. I see an additional charge listed for playtime, which is ridiculous. If I'm paying that rate, the playtime should be included, I think. Thoughts?

They are not at Fort Wilderness any longer. Best Friends has their own new building. I believe there is a shuttle for pets.

There is no shuttle to get to the kennels...you will have to drive them over.

This is the main site through the WDW site.

Here are the breakdowns of the services.


They are all given 1 potty walk a day. The differences are in the rooms & being able to add extra services. You can add on play time. It's a lot like normal boarding. In fact, it's better than any boarders in my area.

My DPs, Dbf, & I are going in May. My mom is wanting to board her GSMD & Papillon. So it's going to be a really interesting situation since the GSMD pretty much hates other people.

We might aim for an indoor/outdoor room b/c they include patios. But Since the parents are going to be camping, they don't think it will be an issue to just pop over & visit.

If anyone uses them PLEASE give details!!
