About Us

Welcome to ""Not Jut Kibble" where it's not a kennel but a home!

For those dogs who are happier in a home environment instead of a kennel, we are building on thirty years of trust in canine behavior, daycare and boarding. Located in the Orillia/Severn region, in our home we work to maintain proper canine etiquette for safety and a stress free environment. This helps you to maintain a well behaved dog and helps the dogs play and learn good intersocial skills while they're here. With no additional charges for playtime and walks, it's a great place for just a day or longer 'howlidays'! Expect to get pictures and/or videos and updates while they are here.

We also have extensive experience and education in caring for a wide variety of dogs, including dogs with medical issues, in a clean well kept climate controlled home.

For those interested in our work with behavioral issues, the approach is through positive reinforcement, concentrating on relevant stimuli with operant learning, classical conditioning and conditioned emotional responses using intrinsic and extrinsic motivations as well as the DAID approach. We'll help your dog with their individual needs so they can play their way to success!

With a newly built outdoor office, we delayed our opening locally so we could provide our clients with a safe, clean area for pick up and drop off. All best practices are followed concentrating on the safety of our clients with a fear free approach using methods such as the DAID (Do As I Do) method.

A great experience for your pups, we keep things fun and interesting!
