Green Acres Gardens Bed & Breakfast :   Bed & Breakfast Country Style!! An Oasis from Dallas just a short trip away! Nestled in the rolling hills aside Lake Lavon are our 28 acres of peace and quiet!!
 
Green Acres Garden Bed & Breakfast - a wonderfully decorated modern escape to the country!! 2 lovely bedrooms with shades in the windows, Luxury thread count sheets . The private bath is equipped with a huge shower which easily would accomodate 2 or one in a wheelchai - A shower seat is removable if you want it out!!


Do you have a golfer in the family or just a golf enthusiast?? We ahve a nice putting green (see picture) just built in Sept. 2006. Putters/balls provided at no extra charge, play to your hearts content!!

The living/Kitchen area has comfy leather furniture, throw pillows and blankets for napping or snuggling!!

The lovely negative edge pool is available for your use in the right weather, there is also a hot tub over behind the main house. There are facilities for a small to medium party!

ALSO - now available--- a romantic evening or weekend with options available like Chocolate dipped Strawberries, Champagne or Sparkling Apple juice!! Those things are available at a small extra fee just to cover my expenses. I am very flexible and will do my best to accomodate special requests!!

IF you bring your own spirits, there are plenty of glasses and accessories in the kitchen. I leave soft drinks, snacks and fruit for all guests with no extra charge. 

 Breakfast consists of everything from a continental breakfast at your leisure to an invitation to join us at te Bollengier breakfast table (takeout is also available!!)

Our Beautiful guest house filled with remembrances of my beloved grandparents!! It is Handicap accesible. 

You will agree - THIS IS A GREAT DEAL!! What would a huge suite cost at a motel?? 2 separate bedrooms, peace at night from the kids... Or even 2 couples traveling together!! Stay here while you go to the Texas State Fair, The Cotton Bowl, or dozens of other events in Dallas or the DFW Metroplex!!!

  RELOCATING to Dallas, McKinney, Plano or anywhere in North Texas, I will be happy to offer you a great weekly or monthly rate... If you are going to move here and relocate your family, this is a much better option than a motel or residence inn type setting. Such a wonderful peaceful place to stay while you look for the perfect home! We just had a couple with their 2 young girls stay here for 5 weeks while they searched for a new home in Wylie. They had moved to Virginia but wanted to move back to Texas!! They got new jobs at the new Baylor Heart Hospital in South Plano. What a beautiful hospital!! 

  Reserve your stay today!! A small deposit will hold your dates! Your deposit is refundable up until 7 days before stay if stay is 3 days or less. Deposits are refundable up to 14 days before for stays of over 1 week…

Green Acres Garden Boarding Kennels !!!!!! :    Welcome to our Boarding Kennel Web Page!!    Current Rates are :

$12 for the first dog in a indoor/outdoor run -- and --
 1/2 price for the second dog sharing the same run!!  
PICK-UP and DELIVERY AVAILABLE!!

*** NEW RATES JAN. 1, 2009 ****
  $15 per day for the first dog in the run & half price for other dogs in SAME run. Still the most reasonable in the area and when you see the superior facility and the excellent care, it is impossible to beat!!

CHECK OUT OUR VIDEO TOUR of the kennel: you will find it here: www.youtube.com/elorasmom

NEW - See GAGK_Guest_Info.jpg (3rd photo this gallery) for information form you can fill out to bring with your pet - In addition to their shot records and food.

 When you are away we treat your dog like our baby!! We take the best care around for any price!! But our prices are very reasonable!!! $18 a day for 2 dogs, that is less than most places charge for 1!! And not to be bragging but our kennels are some of the newest, nicest, safest and the most caring kennels around!! We have lots of return customers and referrals!!    

 RULES FOR OUR KENNEL:  
NO. 1 - Bring Food 
No. 2 - Bring CURRENT Immunization Record - unless it is on file here already!
No. 3 -  All DOGS NEED A Collar.  I have leashes but they need a collar first!! I have a big play yard and cannot chase them and catch them if they can't wear a leash!! I will give them a low cost collar if you bring them without one and charge your bill ($1 or $2) PLEASE NOTE!! I am adding this rule 6/25/08!!!    

I used to board my dogs (I have a lot!!) when I went out of town, tried pet-sitting too!! Neither one worked for me!! Boarding cost me $1000 or more every time and they wouldn't ever let me pick my dogs up after 5 or at all on Sunday!! Then my dogs came home beat-up, with kennel cough (even after current immunization) once one even came home PREGNANT!! The pet sitting ended up with a huge mess for me to clean up, I worried about someone I didn't know hanging out in my home and several family pets were let loose or eaten. One time our male chihuahua was at a neighbor's house 3 days and the pet-sitter either didn't notice or was afraid to tell me. ANYWAY, that is why I have a kennel and why I have reasonable rates. The only catch is that it is only us... It is here at our house and when we are gone you can't bring or pick up your dog(s). There have been very few times that I couldn't work out the time someone wanted to come - just PLEASE book an  appointment  before you make a trip out!!

We have 15 large indoor/outdoor runs! Trust your dog to be in the best care in a clean safe environment!  Let  me spoil your fur-babies while you go on vacation! I will give you email and several phone numbers to keep in touch while you travel!  

For an additional charge, I will pick-up or drop off your pets! $1 per mile one way from my place to yours!! Our immediate area is Princeton, Farmersville, McKinney, Plano, Allen, Lucas, Wylie, North Dallas, RIchardson, etc. What a great value if you are in a hurry!! 

 My husband, kids and I love all dogs - we've been breeders of Scottish Teriers for over 10 years. 

 We live on a gorgeous 14 acre farm overlooking Lake Lavon, 12 miles from Central Expressway and Bethany in Allen   All 15 runs are over 50 square feet with concrete walls 4 feet high to protect your pet from a dog in the next run over...
 Or perhaps - protect that dog from your dog... LOL!!

Please bring your pet's food from home, a change in diet at an already stressful time is not a good idea!! . However,  if you forget, we will feed them at a minimal charge: 

FOOD - 
Under 50 lbs - I charge $1 per day per dog. 
$2 per dog/day for over 50 lbs 
 THis is if no food is provided OR they run out, I charge for the days I fed them (it is best for your dog's digestion if you bring a sufficient amount of their normal feed!)  Bring a little more than you think they will eat, I throw out any that they spill or otherwise contaminate. 

Of course all immunizations must be current... Please go by your Vet prior to your stay and get a copy of their shot record. If you are unable to do that, I can call your vet for you and ask them to please fax them to us. I do not mind nor charge for this service!!

I also do not charge for giving pets medicine as long as it is something I can hide in their food and they will eat it. Current tricks are hiding pills in peanut butter or cat food.... However the best thing would be if you bring pill pockets with you, I haven't met a dog yet that won't eat those yummy things!! I'm not fond of shoving pills down a dog's mouth!!

We accept Cash, Checks and if you use Paypal, we can take credit cards that way  I would REALLY appreciate it if you would add a 5% service charge to cover the fees Paypal imposes!  Please let me know if you want to send by Paypal and I will send you an invoice, all you need is an email address, you no longer have to have a Paypal account to send money!!

BTW - The fax and phone here share a line - 972-734-6041 
SO, I need a call to let me know to set the fax to answer the phone!! Linda's Cell number - 972-672-9681 I leave it in the car - please leave a message at the house if I do not answer.

Linda's Bonnie Scots - Our Scotties!!! :   Aug. 25, 2008   Puppies 8 weeks old & getting their first shots, will be ready to go home in a couple of weeks! Mark and Matthew ae still available... 

 JUNE 30, 2008  Clyda's First Litter Born!! 4 Boys - Available early September!! 4 Little perfect boys with the prettiest shiny fur... They all look Solid Black.  Their Daddy is Solid Black while their mother is Black and Silver. So PRETTY!! 

$600 each for these perfect little angels... Taking deposits now to hold the one you choose. Their names are Mathew, Mark, Luke and John. Luke is the runt, he is very cute and a little fiesty. John is the biggest but he is gentle and patient with his brothers. Mark is the fiesty middle sized - Probably - alpha dog. He is Elora's favorite. Then sweet Mathew, he is also between Luke and John in size but he is very curious and cute... I love them all... I admire each of their unique personalities!! I'd love to talk to you and see which one would be the best for your home. If you meet my ownership requirements...

June 26, 2008 - Added new video of Precious Eve 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MaDNX5N5gFM

There are several videos of the Scotties on my YouTube page - CHECK IT OUT!

   www.youtube.com/elorasmom  


      


      These are our beautiful Scotties, we breed them carefully and thoughtfully. I have bought the eight Scotties I have from all over the country to keep our bloodlines excellent and totally unique! 

This is not a business for us. Breeding, raising and socializing our dogs is a very pleasurable experience for us and gives us the excuse to have them. We are very intent on breeding to the AKC standard and attempt to breed and produce puppies that are genetically sound, with excellent temperaments that are well socialized. We would be happy to speak with you about any of our dogs, and figure out if we have the right puppy for you and your family.

I only breed AKC dogs - I fear the move to these other pet registries that seem to be popping up everywhere (ACA, APRI, CKC, etc) is a way to register dogs the AKC would deem unregisterable and I can't understand how this can be a good thing!! THese other registries recognize AKC and will give you automatic registration when you show them your dog is AKC registered, then they can be double registered, I don't see what the point in that is either!! Sorry if this offends anyone, I just feel the need to protect purebred dogs, I am very careful to not have any association of lines, that is why I have bought dogs in California and Illinois and many parts of our great state of TEXAS!!!

 This is not a business for us. Breeding, raising and socializing our dogs is a very pleasurable experience for us and gives us the excuse to have them. We are very intent on breeding to the AKC standard and attempt to breed and produce puppies that are genetically sound, with excellent temperaments that are well socialized. We would be happy to speak with you about any of our dogs, and know we have just the right puppy for you and your family. Ask those people with all those puppies (puppy mills) What do you do when a dog can't or shouldn't breed anymore? They'll either stammer and not answer or tell the truth that they get RID of them!!! We buy dogs and it is a LIFELONG commitment for us. We have 4 chihuahuas (one previously got eaten by coyotes) and are only breeding 2 of them, we are very particular!! The health of our pets and the health and quality of the puppies are our highest concern! We have references available! Of our Scotties, 4 of them are  fixed  but still our babies or pets!!

    Chihuahua Attributes   

    * Smallest of all dogs
    * Graceful, alert, compact
    * Devotion to owner
    * Most economical
     * Playful
    * Long life span (14-16 yrs.+)
    * Adapts easily
    * Minimal grooming
    * Watchdog abliities
    * Ease of exercise
    * Loving
    * Variety of colors


  December 21, 2007  - 5 Beautiful puppies were born to Lady Elena!!.  The Veterinarian and I are not sure if Lady ELena will be able to have more babies... We are hoping Maya and Peewee may be alright to breed with Zorro. To be continued.... 

 EZ2 - Elena and Zorro's second litter -5 of the healthiest and cutest  puppies ever!! All are tri-color party-color! 3 boys and 2 girls. All have a cute little white tip at the end of their tails (love that!!)

 I paid $1795 for ELena who has an exceptional lineage with many AKC champions in her bloodline. Honestly it shows, Elena is a fine dog and fits the Chihuahua profile perfectly right down to the tiny hole in her skull that all Chihuahuas are supposed to have according to some in the show world!! We are not showing at this time but are very interested in it since our goal is to have the best puppies in the world, both Elora and her chihuahuas and me with my Scotties!!
