    About the Inn

    Welcome to Kip's White Dog Inn LLC!  

    The Burden family took ownership of the former Manogue Road Kennels on August 30th, 2019.  JoLynn & her kids purchased the facility from Cindy Busch,  who owned it for over 20 years.  This site has been a dog boarding facility for over 45 years, and has seen lots of updates and changes since then!


    JoLynn and her family are carrying  on the tradition of personalized, knowledgeable care for your 4-legged family members.  Kip's White Dog Inn has expanded their service offering to accommodate all of your pet service needs!  

    We welcome you to the Inn and our website...we hope you find it full of information to help you choose the right facility for your dog's & cat's care!  

    Property

    Kip's White Dog Inn is located on a secluded and spacious 5 acre property just outside of the city of Milton (a few miles from Janesville, Newville, Edgerton, Fort  Atkinson, Whitewater or Evansville).  The Inn is a live-on premise facility, allowing for around-the-clock supervision during your pet's stay.  We are a family-owned medium-size facility which allows us to provide personalized care and individual attention to your precious furry family member making their stay comfortable and enjoyable. 

    Facility

    The Inn has 3 separate kennel buildings that are each temperature-controlled for year-round care. The facility has 17 indoor kennels that each have their own access to an individualized outdoor run through an insulated doggy door.   K9Grass artificial turf is located in all play areas providing a clean and safe potty environment for your dog.  A large, outdoor fenced-in exercise area is available to stretch their legs, test their sniffer or play ball!   An on-site security system is in place for the safety of our guests.  Tours are available by appointment ONLY.

    About the Owners

    JoLynn has lived in the Rock County area for over 45 years (Beloit, Janesville & Milton).  She has 2 adult children who you will see on property helping out with property management, grooming and the care of all of our canine/feline friends.  Booker & Callie both attended Milton High School, have a passion for animal care and  now  enjoy  working  in  the  family  business.  The  Burden family has been a foster home for Paddy's Paws Rescue & Albert's Dog Lounge for over 7 years where they have welcomed over 150 foster dogs through their home on their journey to an adoptive home.  JoLynn has had 4 trained therapy dogs and spent countless hours volunteering with them at schools, nursing homes and hospitals.  She and her daughter are both certified in Pet CPR & First Aid.  Two of their current dogs, Kiplee & Honey, are volunteer therapy dogs and enjoy visiting residents at Milton Senior Living and Oak Park Place Memory Care.  


    Their fur crew includes a handful of their beloved golden retrievers and a special-needs dog named Rex who you can follow on social media (FB/Instagram) at 'Rex is Amazing'.  Rex joined their family all the way from Houston, TX and was adopted through Paddy's Paws Rescue & Lola's Lucky Day!  He was highlighted twice in People Magazine as the 2018 World's Cutest Rescue Dog Contest Runner Up!


    JoLynn has been a supporter of  Gunnar's Wheels Foundation, an organization founded to assist with the mobility of disabled, injured or senior animals.  In early  2021, she also extended her professional involvement by joining the Board of Directors with the Humane Society of Southern Wisconsin.  


    Owning a small business was not always in her dreams, but finding a pathway to working with animals has always been in her heart.  JoLynn has extensive professional background in management, community development, leadership, strategic planning, marketing and non-profit organizational work.  Before opening the White Dog Inn, she most recently was employed as the Vice President of Development for Forward Janesville and ARISENow, a downtown development initiative.  

    The story behind the name...

    Many have asked...so here it is!

      

    Kip, an English Cream Golden Retriever, blessed our home & touched our lives for 32 months.  We all have stories of that "perfect" dog...and for us, it was our Kip.  From early on, we knew he was special.  Flying through multiple training courses with ease and at the age of 1 year and 1 day, he became a certified Therapy Dog through Therapy Dogs International.  He routinely brightened the day for residents at senior living facilities, youth programs, hospitals and area schools.  He was a monthly guest at Huntington Place Senior Living in Janesville where he visited with residents and had fabulous friends in the alzheimer’s wing who would smile ear to ear after his visits. In 2011, we lost him after a quick, but intense health battle.  He had the best care at UW Veterinary Hospital where they removed one of his lungs due to a mass growth.  During recovery, the vets referred to him as a "miracle dog" as he fought for his life & conquered the odds against what the vets called a very mysterious, possibly 'extremely rare' form of cancer.  Unfortunately, 3 months after surgery the mass returned & at 2.5 years old his fight would end. He was our "perfect" dog and I have always known that one day, he would be honored. 
    The White Dog Inn is a nod to him & all of the "perfect" dogs in your homes.

    "Everyone thinks they have the best dog.  


    And none of them are wrong."   - W.R Purche

    The Inn has 3 temperature controlled kennel buildings that have 17 individual indoor kennels.  Each designated kennel area has a doggy door for outdoor access to an individual run.  Runs are only used as a quick access to turfed potty & play areas. Kennel sizes for large dogs range from 4x7' to 6.5x7'.  Kennels sizes for small to medium dogs range from 3x5' to 5x5'.  Dogs  from  the  same family can choose to share a kennel or have separate kennels.


    All 3 kennel buildings have sinks, refrigerators and a microwave to accommodate fresh/frozen food and medications that need to stay cold.


    All buildings have radiant floor heat, air conditioning, windows and exhaust fans that provide comfort for anytime of year.  

    Dogs are let out to potty (or walked on property)  many times a day (shifts  start  at  7am  and  end  at  10pm).  Elevated Kuranda beds are available for all guests and metal water/food bowls are provided.  Daily walks are offered for those dogs that might enjoy a leisurely stroll on our 5 acre property (no additional charge).  Calming music plays in each kennel building daily and nightly treats are provided.   Collars , chains, harnesses  are  all  removed for  the  safety  of  your  dog.   

      

    Daily socialization/playtime will be offered after an evaluation and approval from the owner of  well socialized  dogs.  Excessive  outdoor barking, humping, herding  or guarding  toys/water  will  result  in  your  dog  being  removed  from  playgroups. Outdoor  playtime  is offered multiple times throughout the day.  The  play  yard  is  over  3000  square  feet  of  turf,  play equipment, shade & fun!

    CANCELLATION POLICY

    We know some times things change and you have to cancel your reservations.  We just kindly ask that you let us know as soon as you can so that we can make accommodations to attempt to re-book your reserved spot.  Many times we have guests on waiting lists that can be contacted.  


    Cancellations under a 48 hour notice or under at 7 day notice for Major Holidays (including Spring Break) will be subject to a cancellation fee of 50% of your total reservation.  A NO-SHOW on a confirmed reservation will result in a fee that reflects 100% of your total boarding reservation.  


    Once a boarding reservation has started  (OR  you  are  within  48  hours  of  the  start  of  your  secured  reservation)  you are welcome to pick up your dog/cat early  by  notifying  us  (if your plans change), however you WILL still be charged for the entire dates that were originally  reserved  as  we  can  not  rebook the  kennel  space that  was  held  for  you.


    NOTE:  Each owner is responsible for all damages that your animal incurs at our facility/home.  A minimum charge of $50 will be added to your bill for any damage to Kuranda beds, fencing, gates, turf, furniture, excessive digging or other items that your dog/cat would destruct.   $50 is a minimum charge and if deemed excessive, the fee may be higher.
