Pack Play at Whole Dogz

Our facilities feature three large, indoor doggie daycare play areas, and one outdoor area. 

 

While technically designated for small, medium and large dogs, sometimes size doesn't matter. We will evaluate your dog and pick a pack based on personality and play style.  And sometimes your pup will move between packs, depending on the daily vibe. 

Some of our competitors offer things like bubble time and story time once a week - we do this every day.  We have a set of activities that every Pack Leader is required to perform and we ensure that they are following through! 

 

We also have additional activities for your pups during daycare or boarding in our Canine Development Camps including nosework, agility, learning to play, cooperative care and more.  Check out our offerings under Services. We also have a full compliment of training classes which can help increase the loving bond you have for your pup!

While we don't allow visitors to peak inside the daycare floor because it would wreak havoc in the room if dog's saw outsiders, you can see the daycare hallway to give you an idea of the size and of course watch the floors on the camera up front.  

Sustainable, safe & clean

Sustainable, Fresh & Clean

We use sealed rubber flooring in our daycare, which is better for both doggie and human feet.  We clean with all natural products  - no harsh chemicals - to provide the healthiest of environments for your pooch.  We have numerous air cleaners and use misters with Thieves Oil throughout the facility. 

When your pups leave for the day, we will give each of them a rub down with our organic grooming cloths to make certain that they leave smelling sweet! And of course you can also schedule a bath or groom while your pup is staying with us, with our all organic grooming products!

Fresh Play Area

Because we know that outdoor time is important to your dog, we have a wonderful fresh air play area.

 

Our outdoor play space includes pet grass to encourage dogs to continue to use a grassy area to do their business while they are here. We strive to take your pup outside once in the morning and once in the afternoon.  While boarding they have early morning and late night outside time. 

 

With our indoor air purification system and a large glass garage door, your dog will enjoy plenty of sunshine and fresh air all day.

Custom Exercise

For the pup that needs an extra release of energy, help losing a few pounds or a way to keep joints limber, we offer a special exercise fun room.  

 

With a treadmill, agility equipment, rocks, ramps and a sandbox,   we can give your dog some gym time for a small additional fee.

 

This is also great for pups that need to move but have difficulty adjusting to a daycare environment. It is also an option for those attending daycare regularly and want a change of pace or an opportunity to build confidence.  We also have our Canine Development Camps in our agility room - check them out in the Services Section.

We can accept pups early for $5.00, ONE hour prior to opening. There is a late pick-up charge for dogs hanging out after closing of $5 dollars up to five minutes, $10 dollars up to ten minutes and $20 dollars up to an hour late. 

HOW TO ENROLL

All pups attending daycare or boarding need to meet us ahead of time and spend at least a day in daycare prior to any boarding.  This is to help your pup adjust to the daycare setting so that it has the best time possible both for your pup and all the others it will be spending time with.  

There are some steps before coming in to see us. First go to the Enroll button at the top of the page.  That will instruct you to first, make yourself a customer on

Gingr.  Then go back and fill out our health questionnaire.  We will also need a copy of updated vaccines from your vet (or breeder or rescue group) for Bordetella, Rabies and Distemper.  It's also a good idea for you to get your pup the canine flu vaccine.  

When sending in vaccines to info@wholedogz.com, please let us know dates and times that work for your schedule to set up an evaluation.  We set those by appointment, M-Sat between 9:30 - 4 and on Sunday's between 1:30 - 4.  

During your pup's evaluation we will ask you some additional questions about their temperament, whether they have attended daycare in the past, the play style your pup has, etc.  We will then determine the best daycare room for the evaluation.  We suggest that you leave your pup for an hour or two to allow it to acclimate to the daycare environment.  

We can't wait to meet you and your pup!
