Need a special kennel in LA

Hi
We have an elderly Shepherd that is in the early stages of degenerative myelopathy, he still functions well, but stairs and slippery floors are definitely an issue. We would like to fly home for Christmas to visit our family but would need a kennel that could deal with our dogs condition. Does anyone know of such a place? I would like to get a name so that we can start contacting them.
Thanks
Michael

  • Thank you Jeff and Sloop for the excellent suggestions. I have contacted the Costal German Shepherd organization.

  • This from my daughter and her friend that live in Menifee and Murietta:

    She said contact "Coastal German Shepard" it's a rescue and organization that works just with shepherds and where she got her dog. They have different locations around southern cal and can maybe suggest someone or somewhere
  • Thanks Southwoods46, that is exactly what we are looking for we plan to be staying near Menifee so that would work for us. Many thanks.

  • If you are near Hemet or San Jacinto CA, Dr Jones is a veterinarian with a kennel that we have used. Excellent care for a high needs dog.

    Animal Medical Center - Bruce Jones DVM

    (951) 327-5865 (951) 654-4399

    Dr. Bruce C. Jones DVM and his staff have been caring for your little loved ones for over 30 years! They offer complete Veterinary Services including Boarding!

    I could not seem to get into his website, but I am sure if you called the numbers listed, the receptionists can direct your call to the boarding kennel. Costs are reasonable for boarding.
  • Thanks corgi-traveler, but I would like an actual contact, we are in British Columbia, so just don't want to make a lot of dead end calls.
