50 Years, 50 Dogs
Adopt and Transform the Life of a Dog in Need
Kennelwood has been a leader in animal welfare and pet care for 50 years. As we commemorate our golden anniversary, we’re launching a meaningful initiative: rehoming 50 special dogs. In collaboration with local shelters, we’re inviting you to be a part of this journey. Let’s transform lives together – one dog at a time.
