MEET THE TEAM:

Black Walnut Kennel Team Member One

SUSIE:

Susie has grown up with animals her entire life. Her passion and love for taking care of animals is what gave her the inspiration to open up a Chilliwack dog kennel in 1994. Starting off with taking care of just a handful of dogs and cats, her compassion and dedication to them made her reputation grow into what Black Walnut Kennel is today.

JULIANNE:

Julianne has been with Black Walnut Kennel since the beginning. While growing up she would spend countless hours at the Kennel just sitting and getting to know the animals. Still over 25 years later she gets the same enjoyment from her time spent working in the kennel.  We are proud to have her as our General Manager and know that she always puts her heart and soul into her work.
