🐾 How do we keep our guests cool? ☀️💦
We had a concerned member of the community call Montrose Animal Control today because they were worried our pups might be overheating outside. Honestly? We are so grateful they called. Animal Control paid us a visit, got to see our outdoor setup with their own eyes, and gave us a big thumbs up! They even said it’s clear we are doing absolutely everything we can to keep our guests safe and cool.
So, what exactly are these precautions we take? 👇
🌱 Cool Ground: Our outdoor areas are covered in turf and wood chips, which we constantly hose down throughout the day to keep the ground cool on sensitive paws.
💧 Fresh Hydration: Water bowls are being dumped and refreshed continuously.
⛱️ Maximum Shade: We have multiple large shade sails draped over our massive pergola, stretching from the fence to the wall. This ensures there are TONS of shady spots to chill out in.
🧊 Ice, Ice, Baby: Ice is given out like candy! In fact, it tastes like candy because we often freeze delicious dog-safe fruit right into it.
🏊 Water Park Vibes: We have multiple large plastic pools for the dogs to frolic in, plus sprinklers running for them to chase and run through.
❄️ AC Breaks: For our senior pups and breeds that need extra breaks from the heat, we have a fully air-conditioned indoor area. We constantly rotate our guests (and our hard-working employees!) inside on a regular schedule.
🔒 Rest assured: Both PACFA (our state regulators) and Montrose Animal Control have now personally inspected our setup and watched the dogs outside on a hot day. Both have verified that we take your pups' health, safety, and comfort incredibly seriously.
Thank you to our amazing community for always looking out for the dogs. We love your pups just as much as you do! 🐕❤️
