A warm welcome
Our day begins with a friendly cup of tea and a chat about the exciting activities ahead. We'll introduce you to our dogs, finding the perfect match for your personality.
Learning & laughter
Years of dog training experience are put to work as you have fun learning basic commands, lead walking, and navigating our agility course. These activities promote social interaction, build confidence, and provide a sense of accomplishment.
Unconditional love
The best part? Spending quality time with our loving dogs! They offer companionship, reduce stress, and bring pure joy to your day.
Grow & connect
We don't just play with pups! Get your hands dirty and learn valuable skills while tending to our community vegetable patch. Planting, weeding, and harvesting fresh produce fosters teamwork, responsibility, and a connection to nature. Manual labor tasks are also available for those who prefer them.
