Welcome to Char-Will Kennels: New Ringgold’s Premier Pet Care Destination

Nestled in the rolling hills of New Ringgold, PA, Char-Will Kennels has been the trusted name in comprehensive pet services—combining pet boarding service, animal rescue service, dog training, and professional pet grooming under one welcoming roof. From the moment you step onto our immaculate grounds, you’ll discover why pet parents and animal lovers alike praise our friendly staff, well-maintained facilities, and unwavering commitment to animal welfare.

A Full Spectrum of Services

Pet Boarding Service
Whether your dog is a laid-back senior or a high-energy bundle of fur, our boarding program is tailored for comfort and peace of mind. Spacious indoor suites connect to secure outdoor runs, ensuring ample room for play and relaxation. We encourage pre-boarding meet-and-greet visits—“They encouraged visits with our trainer prior to boarding so our dogs got comfortable,” one owner shared—to help dogs settle in and allow our team to anticipate any special-needs handling.

Animal Rescue & Adoption Service
Our on-site rescue adopts out dozens of dogs each month, prioritizing thoughtful matches over speed. From thorough screening and background checks to interactive meet-and-greet areas, Char-Will Kennels makes sure each dog finds the right home. As one adopter noted, “They made certain that I got the best puppy to fit into my home and my 9-year-old beagle,” underscoring our commitment to lasting bonds.

Professional Dog Training
Led by seasoned instructors, our training classes address everything from basic obedience to reactive behavior modification. Owners of high-strung or reactive dogs—often turned away elsewhere—find relief in our expertise. “One facility even refused to board her unless we got sedatives—but Char-Will understood and respected that,” said a grateful client. We work closely with trainers and owners through private sessions and group classes to build confidence, trust, and lasting results.

Pet Grooming by Jolie
Your dog’s spa day awaits with Jolie, our in-house grooming professional. From breed-specific cuts to luxury baths, Jolie transforms every pup into a “show stopper.” As one reviewer raved, “All my fur kids are show stoppers when finished by Jolie, an amazing professional dog groomer!”

Staff Friendliness & Professionalism

At Char-Will Kennels, it’s the people who make all the difference. From the first phone call to pick-up day, clients consistently praise our welcoming, knowledgeable team. “Everyone we encountered from submitting our application through our visit today were so friendly and so helpful,” one visitor noted. Our volunteers and staff work as a cohesive family—sharing updates, fielding questions, and easing every transition for you and your pet. Diane, our lead coordinator, receives frequent shout-outs for her depth of breed expertise and genuine care: “Diane is probably one of the most knowledgeable individuals in this country when it comes to GSDs and other breeds.”

Impeccable Facilities & Rigorous Safety

Cleanliness and safety are non-negotiable at Char-Will Kennels. Guests enjoy spotless kennels, regularly sanitized play areas, and a meticulous daily cleaning regimen. Our state-of-the-art indoor/outdoor runs give dogs freedom to explore while staying secure. Communication is equally thorough: owners receive timely texts and photos (“It was nice they texted update communication, especially near pick up”), and our on-site staff is always ready to answer calls.

While our dedication to health protocols is unwavering, we understand that transparency around health matters builds trust. We actively monitor for any signs of kennel cough or other concerns and notify owners immediately—because open communication is the cornerstone of responsible boarding.

Tailored Adoption Experience

Finding the right companion involves more than filling out an application. Our expansive play yards and meet-and-greet benches allow families to gauge personality, energy levels, and social compatibility. “We took three dogs for a long walk and sat on a bench to see how each dog reacted,” recalled one adopter, highlighting our hands-on approach. This thoughtful process ensures fewer returns and happier homes.

Specialized Handling for Special-Needs Dogs

Reactive or high-energy dogs require patience, consistency, and expertise—qualities our team has mastered. We design personalized introductions, accommodate trainer visits, and offer targeted enrichment to help each dog thrive. “My large, energetic, boisterous dogs always come home healthy, happy and exhausted,” praised one satisfied pet parent, underscoring our success in managing every temperament.

Transparent Pricing & Great Value

Quality care shouldn’t break the bank. Our competitive daily rates include basic amenities, with flexible add-on options such as specialized diets, extra playtime, or a grooming session. As one customer put it, “Price: very fair for daily rate w/ food + extras,” making Char-Will Kennels an accessible choice for every budget.
