At The Farm Dog Inn, we do more than provide pet care - we care about your pet just as we care about our own. Not only are we animal lovers, but we also have the experience to provide the highest quality of services.
​
We do NOT offer tours for the safety and privacy of our home and children. If tours are a requirement I can happily refer you to other facilities that can accommodate this. We can be reached at thefarmdoginn@gmail.com. Feel free to email me with any questions. I will respond as soon as possible!
THE FARM DOG STORY
More Than Pet People
Welcome to The Farm Dog Inn Bed and Barkfast! We are the Nelsons. Our family of five includes myself, Britt, my hardworking husband, Kyle, and our three sons! I am a farmer's wife, mother, animal lover and business owner. Our small business journey began with Nelson Cattle Farm where we raise homegrown beef for local families.
I grew up on a horse farm surrounded by every animal imaginable. My father also worked as a canine officer for many years and taught me a passion for dogs. Working with animals was always in the cards for me. I started out as a veterinary assistant for seven years before opening the kennel here at our farm.
​
My dream was to work from home and raise my sons with an outstanding compassion for all of God's Creatures. When I had a "wild idea" to start a Bed and Barkfast for pets my husband shockingly didn't shoot me down and GOD PROVIDED! We opened Stock Dog Suites in 2019 and rebranded in 2023 to The Farm Dog Inn Bed and Barkfast.
I love to use my business as my ministry! Community outreach is a big part of our calling! We have hosted many events and fundraisers to directly benefit First Light Child Advocacy Center of Grant County in Memory of my father, Lt. Matthew Swain.
I have high standards for my pets and want to provide an incredible experience for animals and owners. Does your pet require medical care? No problem! Rest assured, my experience in the veterinary field leaves your pet in great hands! I am also in contact with many of the local veterinarians if an emergency should ever occur.
Select your pet a homemade treat from our bakery case before you leave!
​
The Farm Dog Inn resides out our back door, so your pets are always monitored. We are conveniently located right off Interstate 69, Exit 255.
