The Dog Day Camp at At Last Farm includes an indoor doggy lounge, large outside kennels and play areas. The property also includes cross fenced fields and a lower pasture to allow traveling dogs to work off some of that pent up energy. There is plenty of room to fetch a ball or Frisbee or just run.

Like most dog day care facilities the farm requires vaccination records and tests dogs for sociability. There is a veterinarian on call.

At Last Farm’s Dog Day Camp is open Wednesday – Sunday from 9 am – 5 pm. Reservations are required. Special evening dining hours are available by appointment.

Welcome to our world of At Last Farm

Sometimes you get what you wish for . . .

At Last Farm was purchased by Ann Kanitz in 1989 with the idea of keeping the old ways alive while at the same time carving out a rewarding lifestyle for her.

She began by raising heirloom Navajo sheep. Today the property is home to an orchard full of heirloom apple trees and a large working garden. Permanent residents of the farm include Dolly the Llama, a miniature horse named Redmond, Ann’s own Tibetan Terriers and a herd of Icelandic sheep. Protecting the sheep and all the residents of At Last Farm are Bijou, the Great Pyrenees, and two Tibetan Mastiffs. Also in residence is a small flock of exotic laying hens.

In 2006, Ann decided to add a dog day care to the offerings of At Last Farm. The goal was to provide to residents and the many visitors to the coast a way to enjoy some of the not so dog friendly activities such as whale watching or wine tasting in the Anderson Valley, visiting the unique shops, art galleries and superb restaurants along the Mendocino Coast

“The business is still evolving,” says Kanitz, “For now I am concentrating on providing the best day camp experience around. I just love watching city dogs come in and enjoy all the news sights, sounds and smells they find on the farm.”

In 2008, Amy Soderman began working with Ann Kanitz. She is an experienced dog handler with a keen interest in dog behavior and alternative health. As a dog groomer and exhibitor she has helped many owners build healthy relationships with their dogs. Amy and her husband Paul have resided in Boonville, CA since 2004.  Amy has an MBA and was a successful project manager/accountant in the fields of Health Care, Computers, and Government.  She actively participates in the sport of dogs by training and competing in conformation, obedience, rally, and agility.  Amy owns Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers and Tibetan Terriers.
