🚨 QUICK WEEKEND UPDATE! 🐾

This Friday, Saturday & Sunday, all daycare and boarding drop-offs and pick-ups will be through our rear entrance on Third Street while we continue making improvements to the facility. 🧡

📍 Head to the back of our building on Third Street and look for the door with the EXIT sign above it. Just come on in and our desk team will be there to help!

We appreciate everyone’s patience and flexibility while we work through these temporary changes.

Different door. Same happy tails. 🐶🧡

Sunshine, besties, and no water going to waste! What a great weekend we’re having! ☀️ 🐾

Hi everyone!

September is here, which means we’re heading into one of our favorite times of year—and getting our pups ready for spooky season! 🐶🎃

Our **September Structured Daycare Calendar** is here, and we have some fun activities planned throughout the month, including our new **Spooky Season Prep** activity!

👻 **What is Spooky Season Prep?**
October can bring a lot of unexpected sights, sounds, and experiences for our dogs—costumes, decorations, doorbells, people carrying strange objects, and plenty of activities involving halloween. Our Spooky Season Prep activities are designed to help dogs build confidence and practice staying calm around some of those unusual distractions **before** Halloween arrives.

We’ll also be continuing the structured activities you know and love, helping reinforce skills like impulse control, polite interactions, engagement, confidence, and settling around distractions.

# # # 🚨 September Closure Reminder

Please keep these dates in mind when planning your dog's daycare schedule:

* **Sunday, September 13:** No Structured Daycare
* **Sunday, September 13 at 4:00 PM:** Common Dog closes for construction
* **Monday, September 21 at 7:00 AM:** We reopen!

We appreciate everyone's patience and understanding while we make some exciting improvements to the facility. We can't wait to welcome everyone back on September 21!

As always, our goal with Structured Daycare is to make the time your dog spends with us more than just playtime. We're using that time to reinforce the skills and behaviors that make life with your dog easier, happier, and more enjoyable.

We’ll see you in September—and let's get those pups **spooky season ready!** 🎃🐾

Friday Jr.!! 🎉🎊

Just a bunch of happy dogs doing happy dog things. ☀️🐾💦

Pool time, sunshine, goofy faces, and hanging with friends — another day well spent at daycare. 🧡

While Mom & Dad are busy saying “I do,” Freddie is spending their big day with us (truthfully it was so he didn’t upstage everyone in the photos. He’s a natural 💅) 💍🐾🤍

We’re making sure this handsome guy gets plenty of love, attention, and fun while his parents celebrate the start of their next chapter. 🥹

Congratulations to Freddie’s newlyweds! 🥂💒 Don’t worry — your best boy is in good hands! 🐶❤️

🎂🎉 Everybody stop what you’re doing… it’s Lana’s 10th birthday! 🥳🐾

When you’re the General Manager’s dog, apparently the entire staff becomes your personal birthday choir. 😂❤️

But wait… there’s one more very important announcement…

✨ Please welcome Lana’s new brother, Suga! ✨🐶🤍

Lana got the best birthday present of all — a little brother to share the treats, attention, and absolutely zero personal space with. 😂

Everyone say HELLO, SUGA! 👋🐾 And happy birthday to our sweet Lana! 🎂💕
