[Book a stay](https://happypawskennels.propetware.com/customerLogin)[Call 707-678-6600](tel:+17076786600) [Usually fits a First Class kennel $72 a night ยท 6 x 8 ft inside](https://happypawskennels.com/dog-boarding/first-class-kennel/) - **Weight (AKC):** 80 to 100 lb - **Kennel:** First Class, 6 x 8 ft - **Per night:** $72 - **Bath (2024 chart):** $75 to $85 A Komondor is a giant dog, at least 25.5 inches and 80 pounds for females and 27.5 inches and 100 pounds for males by the AKC, with a corded coat, so one fits a First Class kennel (6x8 ft, $72 a night on the 2026 rates). On the 2024 bath chart the Double Coated column is $75 at 76 to 100 pounds and $85 over 100; please ask to confirm for cords. The AKC standard says large size is important but not at the cost of type and ruggedness. For a stay, large size is the first fact and the cords are the second. ## The biggest run Dogs are 27.5 inches and up, about 100 pounds and up at maturity; bitches 25.5 inches and up, about 80 pounds and up. First Class gives about 48 square feet inside and 72 outside at $72 a night, and it is the right size for a dog this big. A second Komondor from the same home pays $61. ## Cords The puppy coat is relatively soft but tends to fall into cord-like curls. The young adult coat has very short cords next to the skin, and the mature coat has a dense, soft, woolly undercoat with an outer coat that forms heavy cords. The bath chart's last column covers the dense coat: $75 at 76 to 100 pounds and $85 over 100, effective January 1, 2024. Cords take a very long time to dry, so please call about the price and how many days to leave before pick-up. ## Summer weight The NOAA Vacaville station (1991-2020 normals) averages about 100 days a year at 90 degrees or more. A corded coat holds heat, so the air-conditioned side of the run matters, and the doggie door means your dog picks the cooler side whenever it wants. ## Size, strength, and a calm hand A dog this large is strong at the end of a leash. Staff walk each dog in from the car, and the large fenced play areas and the grass field give plenty of room. Walks are included. If your Komondor is wary of strangers, tell the front desk at drop-off. ## Booking Bring current rabies, distemper/parvo and Bordetella records, and request a stay through Book / My Account . Canine influenza is recommended but not required.
