Our Story

A Tail of Kindred Spirits

Bella, Jim’s three-year-old AKC chocolate lab, was among the top reasons Jim felt driven to innovate the Kennel Cap product line.

His dog’s wellbeing is of utmost importance to him because of the relationship they have established and the value she brings to his sport. In the field, Jim had witnessed many dogs fall prey to the elements. Dogs retrieving birds from the lake in cold temperatures returning soaked and shivering, risking hypothermia which may be fatal. Dogs working long hours in high temperatures overheating and sustaining long-term complications and nearing, or in some unfortunate cases succumbing to, death. 

Jim wants to see Bella thrive, along with each and every pup out in the field. He began to dedicate his time to finding a solution to this frightening issue.

He needed something effective, small enough to take on the go, and affordable for the consumer. The product needed to be top-notch quality in order to sustain in rugged conditions. The Kennel Cap product line embodies these pillars of quality, affordability, and reliability.

Step into the heartwarming journey of Kennel Cap, where wagging tails meet the great outdoors.

Equip your furry companions with the shield against the chill. Unleash the power of Kennel Cap and safeguard your loyal friends from the cold embrace of hypothermia and the touch of heat exhaustion.
