Our Story

Founded in 2017, We started Kootenay Canine Adventures to offer dogs in Cranbrook fun filled dog adventures. 6 months later we expanded to Kimberley to offer the same. After 18 months of operations, it became clear that there was a need for a kennel to further offer the dogs in the area a comfortable place to stay & play. With that in mind, we purchased 28 acres in Wycliffe and built a doggy paradise. We custom built a kennel and play space offering 26 suites and 22,000 Sq Ft of play yards with 8 foot fences. Our vision is to keep pups active, engaged and healthy. We focus on maintaining your dogs exercise routine and offering a safe environment for your dog to learn from others and gain appropriate social skills.

We take extreme pride in providing all the services necessary for your pup to live a healthy, happy, active life.
