of our facilities

As an owner and also the director of operations, Rocky has been involved with the kennel since 1998 and making sure things run smoothly is just one of the many responsibilities on Rocky's daily list. As a man who wears many hats, it is not unusual to see Rocky walking or feeding the dogs during peak weekends and holidays. Rocky is a 7 year veteran of the U.S. Navy and has always held the greatest affection for animals. Prior to his arrival at Wye River Kennel, Rocky worked for the Department of the Army where he processed applicants for veterinary school.

As an owner, David has been a large part of the history and success of Wye River Kennel. David initially came aboard Wye River Kennel in 1988 as a Pet Care Technician, under the previous owners. During the fall of 1997 the kennel was put up for sale and David's passion for animals inspired him to purchase the business and beautiful property. As a native of the eastern shore, David has lived in Queen Anne's County all of his life. He grew up on the area's farms showing cows and horses and today he continues to train and show Appaloosa horses. With David at the helm, you can rest assured your pets are in experienced, careful and loving hands.
