An Ibizan Hound stands 22.5 to 27.5 inches but averages only 45 to 50 pounds by the AKC, so one fits a Business Class kennel (5x6 ft, $59 a night on the 2026 rates). On the 2024 bath chart a short coat is $40 at 26 to 50 pounds; the wire-haired type is a question for the front desk.

Tall and light, the Ibizan is the sighthound that jumps. The AKC calls these dogs world-class sprinters and leapers who need ample space to air out their engines, which is exactly what a larger run and a fenced yard are for.

Height decides the run

Weight alone would say Economy, but the AKC standard puts dogs at 23.5 to 27.5 inches and bitches at 22.5 to 26 at the withers, with the average dog around 50 pounds and the average bitch around 45. That is a tall frame to fold up in a 4x4 foot run, so Business Class is the better pick: about 30 square feet inside and 60 outside at $59 a night.

Two coats, both hard

The standard names two coat types: a short coat, and a wire-haired coat of one to three inches, sometimes with a moustache. Both are hard in texture and left untrimmed. For a bath, the chart effective January 1, 2024 lists $40 for a short coat at 26 to 50 pounds; a wire-haired dog may price in the Medium column at $45. Please ask to confirm which cell fits yours.

Space to run

A coursing hound lives for sprinting. The large fenced play areas and the grass field allow it, and daily walks are included. Fences matter with a dog this athletic, which is why staff walk each dog in from the car on a leash and why the play areas are fenced. Ibizans are good jumpers, so mention a history of climbing at drop-off.

Lean dog, mild weather needs

Short coats and a lean build leave little padding against cold concrete, so the Kuranda bed and blankets in each run are used. The runs are heated in winter and air-conditioned in summer, and your hound chooses inside or outside through the doggie door.

Records and rates

Rabies, distemper/parvo and Bordetella must be current through the last day. Canine influenza is recommended but not required. Medications are given at no extra charge. Compare with the Pharaoh Hound and the Greyhound, or read about high-energy dogs.
