Unlike many of the bigger facilities, we are a smaller facility in which Matt Larkin is the main trainer. You are getting his 29 years experience with each dog.

As of May 2022, we have enclosed our main kennel.

It is insulated and can be temperature controlled on hot or cold days.

The main kennel building has 6 sliding window bays, 3 doors ( with 1 bay door). It is fully spray foamed insulated.

Sixteen fans circulate air through out the day and during the extreme heat and cold, we have A/C/Heater units to keep all the dogs comfortable while still be able to work.

Each dog has a raised bed and all kennels are cleaned at least twice a day.

Our Puppy House

Occasionally we have Labrador Retriever Puppies for sale and have a separate facility just for them. All my puppies are whelped in the house and when they are about 2 to 3 weeks of age, they are moved out into their own place.

The building is close to the house and separated from the big kennel. It's A/C & Heater Temperature controlled as well. With their own airing yards.

We do provide whelping services for dogs purebred dogs that have been through our hunting programs.

At Cross Creek Kennel we understand that not all dogs are the same and not all breeds are the same. Each learn differently and we understand that each dog learns at a different pace. The obedience program normally takes 9 to 10 weeks.

We require your dog to be up-to-date on their vaccinations.

Rabies, DHP-CPV (or equivalent ), Bordetella (KC)

Please bring Heartworm Medication & any flea medication.

If you have any questions about any of our training program, please contact us.
