Cota Farms offers private respite services for animals that are important to you. We are not a kennel.
We never book more than one dog or family of dogs at a time so your pet will not
have to compete for our attention, nor do we employ outside help.
Sometimes you may need to travel where your pet can't go and you don't want to
leave them in a kennel because they have special needs or you must be away for
extended periods. You don't want to impose on family or friends, you can
turn to Cota Care. Your pet will be cared for in a home and farm
environment, along side our own pets.
We don't have additional charges for 10 minute
exercise periods or times outside a cage. There are no cages and exercise
is unlimited. We don't offer couches or television; we have fields, ponds,
and wetlands. Your dogs activities are determined by you and your dog.
Your dog can be limited to small areas where they will be able to play with
small farm animals and our small dogs. Or they can have access to fenced
acreage which includes pasture, pond, wetland, and even some wildlife.
Most importantly, your dog will be integrated
into our "pack". The worse thing about a kennel is not the cage, but the
lack of interaction! Your dog is used to being with you. A typical
kennel operation will put your dog in a cage and feed it. They may even
offer a large cage with a small area to pace in, but your dog is still left
alone and this is the most important thing to the dog. That is why some
kennels offer, for a fee, a short period, ten minutes on average, in which
someone will pet the dog. At Cota Farms your dog is never isolated.
A visit with your dog and evaluation is required before we can book your pet; you can then better determine what activities you will allow for your dog, as well as all other details to your satisfaction.

COTA RUN
Cota Run is an off-leash,
secure area for you and your dog. These areas are private and as large as
15 acres of fenced pasture, including pond and wetland. Available for
individual or group rental. Even unsocial dogs are welcome
for exercise and play. If you live in the city, you know how difficult it
can be to find a suitable place for your dogs to be able to run off-leash!
For the herding dog
enthusiast, we offer sheep and duck rental to help your dog
relieve their natural desire to chase. Trying to repress these ancient
instincts can cause great frustration for you and your dog. Chewing and
aggressive behavior are just two of the problems that can be alleviated by
these extreme exercise sessions. This service is only available for dogs
that have been trained and can be controlled; we don't want to sacrifice our
livestock.
Day Rates: $6, $2
per additional dog; 10am to 7pm most days, stay as long as
you like.
By appointment
only. Call for livestock rental pricing.
