About Dark Forest Kennels
Our beginnings can be traced back over 100 years starting in the Blue Ridge Mountains of
West Virginia. This is where my Grandfather Brady Vickers first applied his skills toward
engineering products for dogs that were not yet readily available, while breeding and
training specialized hunting dogs. These skills were constantly improved upon and handed
down to my father. In 1978 Dark Forest was officially created and it's doors were open to
help owners and canines from all over. Continuing the tradition to this day, we have added
specialized engineering to our product lines as well as a strong veterinary background.
These skills and traditions are being passed on right now to our next generation so they too
can strive to bring you only the best in Pet care, training, education, and products available
today, tomorrow and beyond.
Today we have exceeded far beyond a simple Kennel. This is why we refer to ourselves as "The Dark Forest Group". We are a group of specialized business combined
into one family. We have one simple motto across the board........ Provide superior engineering, superior products, and superior service to all of our customers while
treating them and their pets as if they are family.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
