BOARDING
Tucked away on 127 scenic acres in the heart of the Hudson Valley, Far Fetched Acres is every city dog’s dream retreat. With rolling fields, shaded woodlands, and endless space to explore, it's the ultimate escape for Manhattan pups craving fresh air and adventure. Our securely fenced, double-gated dog run ensures safe, supervised off-leash play, where dogs can run, romp, and make new friends. Whether they’re here for a fun-filled getaway or to build new skills in our board-and-train program, every pup is in for a tail-wagging good time!
Eat. Fetch. Play. Sleep. Repeat!
To keep our four-legged guests happy and healthy, we incorporate daily rest periods between play sessions. These essential naps help maintain a well-balanced, energized pup, ensuring they get both the restorative downtime and the action-packed fun they crave. Cozy beds, approved chew toys, and endless games of fetch? You bet! At Far Fetched Acres, we make sure every stay is the perfect mix of excitement and relaxation.
