Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
Since 2004, when the facility was built. Before that, it took three years of research, including attendance at industry trade seminars and shows, meeting with veterinarians, architects specializing in animal hospitals and kennels, and weekend travels from coast to coast visiting other facilities, to design what I believe to be the ‘ideal facility.’
What is your primary product or service?
Dog and cat boarding and daycare options as well as a grooming salon and pet boutique.
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
What do you do when you have to travel but your pet doesn’t do well in a boarding situation? I made a list of all the problems encountered by my highly strung two year old Boxer, and hit the road to find solutions.
My initial thought was that ‘there had to be a better way.’ I had all these ideas I thought to be unique until my research revealed that those ideas were already a reality in other parts of the country. There were some very high-end kennels, primarily in resort areas, where the boarding experience was completely customized. I figured we could use a high-end facility here in Middle Tennessee and decided I couldn’t wait for someone else to get around to designing it!
How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
The Farm welcomes all breeds, all ages and all temperaments of cats and dogs, but we will always reserve a special place in our hearts for the aged, the needy, the anxious and the recuperating; and we will always be a safety net for those pets who have found it difficult adapting to being away from home.
How many locations do you have and do you have plans to expand?
Just one, and no plans to expand at the moment.
