- Is there a military discount?

# Is there a military discount?

Yes. The 2026 rate sheet takes about 10% off the one-dog nightly rate for active military families: $65 in First Class, $53 in Business Class and $47 in Economy.

The boarding agreement asks whether the owner is on active military duty, so mention it when you book.

## The military rates

The discount applies to the nightly rate for one dog. Compare each class with the regular 2026 rate.

| Kennel class | Regular, one dog | Military, one dog |
| --- | --- | --- |
| First Class | $72 | $65 |
| Business Class | $59 | $53 |
| Economy | $52 | $47 |

## A week as an example

Seven nights in Business Class is 7 x $59 = $413 at the regular rate and 7 x $53 = $371 at the military rate. A second dog sharing the kennel is about 15% off, which is $50 a night in Business Class.

## Who qualifies

The agreement has a yes or no box for active military. Ask the kennel when you book whether it also covers veterans, retirees, reservists or Guard members, because the rate sheet does not say. Call 707-678-6600.

## Long stays

The 14-night long-term rate is priced at the same $65, $53 and $47. The two are separate lines on the sheet, so ask the kennel how it applies them to your stay before you plan around both.

## Military families nearby

Travis AFB is a short drive away. See [Travis AFB families](https://happypawskennels.com/military/travis-afb/) and the [military rate page](https://happypawskennels.com/dog-boarding/military-discount/).

## How to ask

When you request a booking, say that you are a military family. Bring whatever the kennel asks for at the first drop-off, and check the military box on page one of the agreement.
