PINNACLE K9BLACK FOREST, COLORADO
Dog boarding.A differentkind of stay.
A place for your dog.
One less thing to worry about.
Overnight boarding on our family-owned, 40-acre property near Colorado Springs. Start with your dates, your dog, and a conversation about what they need.
family-owned
01 / THE PLACEBLACK FOREST, COLORADO
Not a backdrop.The actual experience.
Pines, pasture, wooded trails, fenced activity areas, the boarding facility, and room for dogs to move through a setting that feels unmistakably like Colorado.
The property defines the experience because it is the part competitors cannot manufacture. Pinnacle K9 is a family-run training and boarding operation on 40 acres, not a generic kennel with a scenic photograph standing in for the real setting.
These are photographs of the actual place. Ask how the facility, outdoor areas, rest spaces, and available activities fit into your dog’s individual stay.
02 / THE STAYSCROLL THROUGH THE CONVERSATION
Before they stay,know what to ask.
Every dog arrives with a different history, routine, and comfort level. These are the parts of the stay worth discussing with our team before you reserve.
Arrive with the details.
Tell us about routines, feeding, health, medication, behavior, and previous boarding experiences. Ask where your dog will sleep and how the first handoff will be handled.
FIT BEFORE RESERVATION
Space changes the setting.
Pines and open ground are part of the Pinnacle property. Ask how outdoor time is planned, how dogs are grouped, and which parts of the property are appropriate for your dog.
ACTUAL BLACK FOREST PROPERTY
Play should suit the dog.
The pool and outdoor setting are part of Pinnacle K9, but participation and activity arrangements must be confirmed. Ask what is available and what makes sense for your dog.
CONFIRM ACTIVITIES WITH OUR TEAM
Tell us what helps them settle.
A slower introduction. A familiar feeding pattern. A specific comfort routine. Share what makes your dog feel secure, and ask how meals, rest, supervision, and special needs will be handled.
DOG BY DOG. DETAIL BY DETAIL.There is no useful one-size-fits-all answer for a dog you know better than anyone.
TALK THROUGH THEIR STAY
03 / THE DETAILSFAMILY-OWNED. DOG BY DOG.
You know your dog.We want the details.
Maybe they take a little longer to warm up. Maybe mealtime has a very specific routine. Maybe this is their first night away from you.
Tell us about personality, feeding, previous boarding experiences, and any health, medication, or behavior concerns. Share what helps them settle and what tends to make them uncomfortable.
You do not have to decide which details matter on your own. Let’s discuss whether Pinnacle K9 is the right fit before you book.
04 / PLAN THE VISITOVERNIGHT OR DAYTIME
One night.Or just the day.
Start with the stay you need. Confirm your dates, your dog’s care requirements, current pricing, and the final total with our team before you make plans around the reservation.
OVERNIGHT
For weekends away, longer trips, and the nights your dog needs a place to stay.
