About Meridian Canine Resorts

Family-owned dog boarding on ten country acres north of Chico, since 1989.

Our Story

A Chico family caring for Chico's dogs since 1989.

Hello dog people! I'm Terry Alexander, and I started Meridian in 1989. It was a dream as a kid to train dogs and own a dog boarding facility. To focus on the boarding side, I gave up training some time back, which has let me make many improvements and add several exercise yards.

We even have an outdoor office now, where you can see all the yards. It really gives the place that resort feel. You may notice we don't have a long list of rules to sign, and we don't need to meet your dog in advance. Each dog is an individual, and you know your dog best. I guess you could say I'm old school: apply good common sense to any situation and you'll have success. That's what we do here, set up to handle everything from police dogs to toy poodles.
