Dog boarding
Heated, home-from-home kennels.
Family-run, fully licensed boarding kennels on a working yard in Crediton. Heated kennels with outdoor runs, 5.0 ★ on Google, and a small, capped intake so every dog is properly looked after by Emily and the team.

At Blackdown Yard, we want your pet to feel relaxed and reassured in our care. With heated kennels, plenty of space to run around and even professional grooming, washing and training services onsite, you can be assured that your four-legged friend is going to be happy while you're away.
