Raising puppies for families, not for show.

Alcova Dogs traces its roots back a decade, a family-run business dedicated to breeding responsible, healthy, and affectionate companions for your family. What began as a humble dog boarding service, known today as The Station Boarding, has also evolved into a breeding establishment that has provided puppies to service dog organizations as well as family members and companions.

Laurie McCardell, the owner of Alcova Dogs, Recognized a niche for versatile, loving family dogs, and em”barked” on a mission to raise intelligent canines with exceptional temperaments. At Alcova Dogs, we cherish all our furry friends, though some simply steal our hearts a little quicker. Laurie's passion and dedication have attracted families from near and far, seeking to welcome a new four-legged member into their homes.

Starting with Rat Terrier puppies, Alcova Dogs has expanded its breeding program to include the Golden Retrievers. Emphasizing temperament and good nature in our breeding practices, we strive to produce the ideal companions or service dogs for every family.

At Alcova Dogs, we believe in the enduring bond between humans and dogs. Our commitment to breeding excellence and nurturing relationships has made us a destination of choice for those seeking a loving addition to their family.
