We started taking our chocolate lab to DogZone back in 2003, as we were living inner city and had no back yard. We figured it would be a good place to socialize and get some energy out of him, so he didn't go stir crazy whilst we were at work.

It worked - he loved loved loved it and was always excited to get in the car, because he knew where he was going. I'm absolutely certain that part of his placid, happy nature is due to his time at DogZone.

These days, our little white fluffy dog enjoys time at DogZone, playing with old friends and making new ones.

Sally and her team are absolutely amazing with all manner of dogs. Not only do they keep them entertained, they also offer training services and grooming. Sally does an amazing job grooming young Bailey and its super hard to get his fur straight. Nevertheless, he always comes home looking beautiful!

He's even on occasion made stuff like calendars and bookmarks for me whilst at doggy day care, which although my co-workers think is insane, I love immensely.

Approximate cost: $40/full day
