A Family‑Run Tradition of Quality and Care

Set on 40 peaceful acres just outside Fergus Falls, MN, Canine Acres offers boarding, grooming, daycare, and training in a clean, comfortable, and professionally maintained setting. Often called “the Taj Mahal for Pets,” our renovated, state‑of‑the‑art facility features in‑floor heat, central air, and bright, welcoming spaces designed for ease and comfort.

Our dedicated team blends professional expertise with genuine care, building personal connections with every dog — and every owner. We make sure each stay feels calm, safe, and familiar, creating peace of mind for pets and people alike.

Founded in 2008 by Greg and Lynn Permann and now proudly owned by their daughter Hope Dagoberg and her husband Seth, Canine Acres has grown from a small family kennel into a trusted destination for exceptional pet care. Recent additions, including a spacious outdoor play yard and The Grooming Barn — our serene grooming and boarding facility — continue the original family vision: personal attention, uncompromising quality, and a place where pets truly feel at home.
