Fort Langley is a great place to own a dog and a busy place to walk one. K9 Friends is about 18 minutes away with structured daycare, calm overnight boarding, grooming, and behaviour-focused training.
The doggy daycare Fort Langley families choose with us balances play groups with real rest periods.
All four services run from the same Clayton Heights property, so you can combine visits rather than making separate trips.
Supervised play, scheduled rest, and a structured day that suits a working schedule.
Calm, crate-based overnight care for fully crate-trained dogs while you travel.
Bath, blowout, brush-out, nails, ears, paw pads, and tidy trims by vetted groomers.
Glover Road on a summer weekend is not a relaxed place to train a dog. Fort Langley’s popularity means constant foot traffic, patio dogs, strollers, and bicycles — excellent for socialization in theory, overwhelming in practice for a dog who has not been prepared for it.
Our approach is to build the skills in a controlled setting first, then practise in the real world. That is true for both daycare and training.
Many doggy daycare Fort Langley clients combine a daycare day with a groom so the trip is worth it.
Between the historic site, the Bedford Channel trails, and Derby Reach, there is no shortage of places to walk. There is also no shortage of triggers: other dogs, food on patios, children, and cyclists. Loose-leash skills and a reliable response to their name make those walks enjoyable rather than tense.
Fort Langley clients often travel for weekends rather than long trips. Short boarding stays are fine, provided your dog is crate-trained and has completed an assessment. Booking early matters most around summer weekends and school breaks.
Some Fort Langley dogs are highly social and simply need more contact than a household can provide during the week. Structured daycare gives that contact with supervision, rest periods, and dogs matched to their play style.
Quick answers for local dog owners.
About 18 minutes via Glover Road and 88 Avenue. Weekend traffic in the village can add time, so allow a little extra on summer Saturdays.
Yes. That is a common request here. We start with controlled exposure and build up to real environments like Glover Road at a pace the dog can handle.
Yes, subject to availability. Dogs must be crate-trained with current vaccinations, and new boarding dogs need an assessment first.
K9 Friends welcomes dogs from across Langley, Surrey, and the Fraser Valley.
Tell us about your dog and we will recommend the right service, then walk you through the assessment.
