Thank you for wanting to find out more about Kennelz and Bitz, and the people who are dedicated to keeping your loved ones happy, health, and safe!!

LORI: Lori grew up around animals all of her life. She not only was raised on a hobby farm, but has won many awards through 4-H, FFA and open class with cattle, horses, cats and more. Lori has always been very active in her community, and even ran two business at the same time. A child daycare center, and a Direct Sales Party Plan based company. When Gordy met Lori she was a children's librarian who also tutored new Americans English, and helped them apply for jobs, housing, and citizenship needs. Lori also conducted computer classes for the elderly. So not only does she possess great skills with animals, patience for entertaining children, she can also help you with computer questions! Gordy talked Lori and her two boys into moving from Wisconsin to Minnesota. Lori's hobbies include reading, horse back riding, THE PACKERS....yes, she is a cheesehead and loves to record special events through scrap booking.  Because of health reasons afffecting Lori's quality of life, she unfortunately with a heavy heart has decided it is time to put her pride and joy up for sale. 

Gordy playing with a special friendGORDY: Gordy is employed at the Moose Lake Correctional Facility, as the Industry Director.  Gordy grew up loving animals, fast cars, and working in the garage. Before meeting Lori you would have been able to find Gordy on the lake fishing walleyes, riding up and down the snow mobile trails, and at the race tracks. Now the best place to find him is in the pasture working with the horses, or on the deck looking at the horses. You'll see his smiling face in the afternoons and on the weekends when you come visit us. He is a great carpenter, he keeps adding additions to our home, and built our kennel from the ground up.  He is always giving loved ones home made wooden gifts, he is talented in so many areas.  He is also in charge of the Forever Pet Cremation, the other division of our business.  Gordy has been trying to help Lori out the best he can during this trying time in her life, but has realized that it is time to move on to a milder climate that will allow Lori to have a better quality of life.

billy and cieraBILLY: Bill is in 11th Grade, and is getting okay grades. He enjoys hanging out with his girlfriend, and making movies with his friends.  He loves to listen to music that is played too loud and can sing fantastic.  He loves spending time by himself, exploring in the woods and playing in dirt. He is getting into bow hunting this year and is excited to go deer hunting with his grandpa. He is very instrumental in helping out with the pets because he likes to roll in the dirt as much as they do! Billy is helping Gordy out with the Forever Petz Cremation side of our business, and I am amazed how detailed oriented he has become with his new job duties.

Emmy is the quitest but most hard working member of our staff.  Her background for animals started at home.  She lives on a farm in Kettle River and is active in Dog Obediance classes, and agility.  Hopefully in the future she will be offering these classes locally herself. Currently she is helping me out with the grooming to give me more free time to play with the animals. 

Arthur is Emmy's brother, and we LOVE watching him play with the dogs.  You will see him having a race with the labs....and usually wins, so that tells you how quick he is.  He likes to play baseball, and has a quick smile to greet you!

Zakk is a Senior at Moose Lake High School.  He is great with the animals, and is very detailed when it comes to cleaning and filling out paperwork.  We love having him on board to keep everyone in line!!

Melissa: attends Barnum High School, and is involved in her church and band.  She is extremely quiet, but loves animals.  She is always found playing with the pets and taking wonderful pictures.

Cassie: attends Moose Lake, and is active in sports, church, and the community. She comes to clean, play, and do whatever needs to be done for the day.  We would be lost without her!
