All of the five acres are fenced in and the dogs get to free roam. I am home most of the day and everyday. If I leave they are created. Only requirement is that dogs get along well with others and that they are crate trained. They all sleep inside my house at night. Some created, most not. I will accept unfixed puppies as long as they are fixed by age 2

11am Transport to Columbia Farm

Pet care experience

Many years of experience working with big groups of dogs. They get to free roam the 5 acre farm and sleep inside at night all together. Perfect for fully socializing and we focus primarily on safety and rest. Breakfast and dinner with treats in between. Water available in all play locations and inside the house most often. Outside before breakfast and after, Nap time and rest during the day and a good long walk with playtime after dinner. Bedtime starting around 7:00 p.m. to 10pm. Breakfast by 9a dinner at 5 to 6p. Bring your own food and meds if needed. Scheduled transport available only during the week at Cool Springs Bank of America (Moore's Lane) around noon time. Farm address is: 3083 Sowell Mill Pike Columbia. About 50 minute drive south off i-65. Drop off and pick up hours at the farm are from 1:00 to 4:00, 7 days a week. Flexible as long as I know the day before. Always give an hours heads up eta. Also, touch base the day before to make sure I'll be home or to schedule for a transport from Cool Springs at noon (More than a few days ahead) If holidays have more than 25 dogs, it's a six night minimum and holiday pricing may apply. After the six nights it drops down to regular pricing. Scheduled transports run two to three times a week. Brentwood Cool Springs at noon. $20 per trip. If you pick up your dog at the farm after the hours, an extra half night is charged. Extended stay is about 10% off eight nights or more.

Marc was wonderful. Sampson had a such a good time that the day we picked him up he fell sound asleep for the night 3 hour prior to his regular bedtime. Lots of playtime outside and running. Loved all the pictures he provided of Sampson playing.

This was our first visit and my 2 dogs had a great time! They came home so tired from playing outside. Jodi and Marc sent a lot of pictures and updates. I loved that the dogs got to lay on the couch or if they chose but could lay in crates if they wanted. Already booked a return trip for them!
