The English Setter is the gentleman of the dog world, according to the AKC, with a speckled belton coat. ## A gentleman in a Business Class run At 45 to 80 pounds, an English Setter fits Business Class, 5x6 ft, $59 a night. A female at the low end can use Economy at $52. ## Coat and baths The AKC describes belton colors and a showy silky coat with regular shedding. On the bath chart effective January 1, 2024, the medium column is $45 at 26 to 50 pounds, $50 at 51 to 75 and $55 at 76 to 100. Please ask to confirm. ## Merry, mellow and game at play The AKC says English Setters get on well with other dogs and people and are game and boisterous at play. They are well suited to the grass field and large fenced play areas. ## Heat, cold and the run Feathering holds heat and burrs. Air-conditioned inside space is the place for an English Setter on a hot afternoon. ## A feathered dog and the field The AKC calls the English Setter a well-balanced hunter and the gentleman of the dog world. The feathering on the legs and chest picks up burrs and mud, so a bath before pick-up is worth asking about. Tell the front desk if you would like one. ## Pairs and rates Business Class is $59 a night for one dog on the 2026 rates. Two setters from one home can share Business Class at $59 and $50, a pair of large dogs per the kennel guide. A 14 night stay in Business Class is 14 x $53 = $742. ## Food and medicine Bring your setter's own food in the original bag with the amount in cups, or use the grain-free house food at no charge. Medications are given at no extra charge. ## English Setter stay costs on the 2026 rates All prices are the 2026 rates, and the balance is settled at pick-up. The reduced rate starts at 14 nights; active military families pay that same reduced rate, about 10 percent off (the rate sheet does not list the two as combining; call 707-678-6600 to confirm). **Business Class kennel, 2026 rates** | Stay | One English Setter | Second dog from your home sharing | | --- | --- | --- | | 3 nights | 3 x $59 = $177 | 3 x $50 = $150 | | 7 nights | 7 x $59 = $413 | 7 x $50 = $350 | | 14 nights (reduced rate) | 14 x $53 = $742 | 14 x $50 = $700 | ### Sources (checked October 19, 2026) - [American Kennel Club - English Setter breed page](https://www.akc.org/dog-breeds/english-setter/) - [Happy Paws Kennels 2026 rate sheet (PDF)](https://happypawskennels.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/2026-Rates-EFFECTIVE-1-1-26.pdf) - [Happy Paws Kennels bathing rates effective January 1, 2024](https://happypawskennels.com/rates/) - [NOAA NCEI U.S. Climate Normals 1991-2020](https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/data/normals-monthly/1991-2020/access/) ### 2026 nightly rates - First Class kennel $72 - Business Class kennel $59 - Economy Class kennel $52 - Cat condo $35 All-inclusive: food, medications and walks. 2026 rates, effective for reservations made on or after Jan 1, 2026.
