“May we look to the dogs of 9/11 as a reminder to meet despair with courage, to answer heartbreak with love, to scale mountains ahead of us one step at a time, and carry light even when the world feels heavy.”
Never Forget 🇺🇸🐾

Happy Labor Day weekend❣️ Due to the high volume of boarding reservations that we have over this weekend, Day Care will be closed from Saturday, September 5- Tuesday, September 8. Our office will be CLOSED on Monday, September 7, in observation of Labor Day. No dogs can be picked up or dropped off with us on this day. We will resume our regular Day Care hours of operation on Wednesday, September 9 from 7am-6pm! All dogs boarding with us will still get to participate in play groups while they are here 😊 We always honor all professional grooming appointments made with Peyton, even when Day Care is closed. We hope you all have a wonderful and relaxing long weekend! 🐾

🩷 can anyone throw the ball with Hester?

Hester has been given 12 to 14 months to live… although she is heartworm negative, her heart is severely damaged. She’s at least 10 years old. She absolutely loves to chase a tennis ball, but then she can’t catch her breath.
We are hoping to find her a home that will throw tennis balls as long as she wants to chase them. Hester doesn’t know she sick…
Her adoption fee is waived, and a lifetime of tennis balls will be included in her adoption …
