Bundocks Kennels

Sharon is THE local authority on Norwich and Norfolk Terriers. If you need yours stripped, go here. I drive 1.5 hours to get there, and it’s worth it. And every now and again she has a beautiful dog looking for a home. As you will see when you visit, Sharon is all about dogs.

Sharon Curry is the owner who is extremely knowledgeable about caring and training dogs of all breeds. She runs a tight ship and her kennel is very clean and in good order. She has in the last 3 years taken care of our overflow of rescue dogs. She has been running the kennel for many years and has helped train and rehabilitate many of our damaged dogs who were sick or mistreated in shelters like San Bernardino and Bakersfield.
Sharon and her staff have helped us find many homes for these dogs that would have been destroyed and long forgotten. We have many happy owners write and visit us to let us know how great their dogs have become.
The kennel is in a very rural, beautiful and relaxed environment for the dogs. I see there are some complaints about visitors not being greeted nicely. The dogs do bark and recreate a hugh rukus which makes it 20 times harder for the caregivers and the dogs especially if you can imagine there can be 50 more more visits a day. The kennel is interested in the dog’s best interest first so a quiet nice environment is the best for all.
The proper procedure at this kennel is to call when you arrive at the parking lot and Sharron or the caregivers come up to greet you, pick or deliver your dog or escort you to the kennels so it does not disturb the entire population.
It is a difficult place to find but well worth the drive as your dog will be in a safe, protected and cared place.

Sharon is AWESOME!
We took our Irish Terrier to her to be hand stripped, she quoted us $ 100 on the phone but only charged us $ 40 as our girls coat wasn’t that long she said. She did a fantastic job on her, it was her first time. Everyone raved about how great she looked.
We will be her customers forever. She is honest and fair and knows her stuff.

We boarded our dog at Bundocks because of the good reviews and it was close to home. Unfortunately, our experience was not a good one and we will not return. The owner, Sharon, is very nice and accommodating, but members of her staff were rude and exhibited unacceptable behavior. When I called to ask about the kennel the woman who answered the phone was rude and in a hurry to get off the phone. When we dropped our dog off in the morning about 8 am the women in charge was unhappy to see us because we set the dogs off barking. She screamed at the dogs and threw a plastic bucket at them. Then she snarled at us that people should not be allowed to bring their dogs so early. My husband was upset when he picked up the dog to see that she was in a very small space in the inside office with two other dogs. The worst part, however, was that our dog returned home sick. I took her to the vet who said that it was probably bordetella, kennel cough, although our dog had two bordetella shots within the past 6 months, one about 10 days before our trip. Apparently, dogs that are vaccinated can still become infected, but it would seem that this kennel might be harboring an especially virulent strain because our dog did not contract the disease at other kennels.

Sharon is great! I come here while volunteering with a local rescue. She is always accommodating and friendly.

After watching an episode of «Dogs 101» on Animal Planet, I decided I had to have a Norwich Terrier. Cute as hell, perfect size! BTW, I’ve wanted a dog for 27 years, so this was not an on a whim decision. Tried to look on
, Craig’s List, shelters, Google search, no luck. My boyfriend managed to track down a reference for Sharon Curry who runs Bundocks. She answered our questions over the phone and suggested that we stop by to take a look at Bob, a 10 month old Norwich Terrier that had been passed through a few owners and was returned back to the kennel.
Bundocks is located in Sebastopol, almost an hour and a half drive from Walnut Creek. It might be a little tricky to find the place. Once you walk in, you’re greeted by Corgis, Daschunds, Norwiches, and some other breeds I wasn’t familiar with. Sharon was very friendly. She introduced us to Bob and let us walk him around the property for a little bit. After asking Sharon a million questions and then being charmed by Bob’s adorable ways, we decided that we wanted to take him home. She also said that if it doesn’t work out, she would take him back and we could use the money toward another dog. But Bob is the most perfect dog I could ever ask for. If I were a bitch, he’d be my boyfriend but anyways…
Overall, Sharon was very helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. She didn’t pressure us into taking Bob home. He charmed us all on his own.
If you’re looking for a Norwich Terrier, see Sharon! (check my pix to see what Bob looks like)

The staff are great, really love dogs. I have been taking my doggie here for about a year now, and they know his personality and match him up with dogs he will get along with the best.
Prices are reasonable as well. «Summer Camp» for dogs!
