A family run Cumbrian Business
Gray’s kennels were established in 1966. After 30 years we relocated the kennels to Jeffrey’s Wood so my parents could retire. With our expertise we then built brand new state of the art kennels within 30 acres of idyllic meadows and woodland. In 2020 we won the much sought after CorporateLiveWire ‘North England’ Dog Boarding Service of the Year Award.

Fully qualified staff
Our staff are all fully trained and have a lot of experience. Most have been with us for many years as we are conscious that the longer our staff stay with us the better they get to know your dogs.
We allow our staff plenty of time to spend with the animals so that they can get to know the individual needs of each dog.
Inspections welcome
Leaving a dog in kennels can be worrying for pet owners, so we welcome any dog owners who wish to inspect our facilities before booking or to contact us for further information.
Please call in to have a look around or contact us for more information.
