Our day play is thriving!! We, and the dogs, are absolutely LOVING it. We're seeing some of our regular playgroup dogs have a BLAST out here, and we're meeting new day-play-only dogs that are we are LOVING playing with - fetch, chase, recalls, and zoomies in the nature park included. Here is more info below, in case you or anyone you or anyone you know with a dog would like to join the fun!

Do you have a dog who needs some extra attention and a lot more exercise during the day?
Are they human-friendly and vaccinated, and fine in a crate?
If you answered āyesā to all of the above, we would absolutely love to meet your dog and have them come play with us!
Dogland has been around for ten years now, and we have earned a great reputation in our community for providing safe playgroups, effective reward-based training classes and private sessions, and low-stress grooming. Now, we have moved locations and expanded to have an ACRE of outdoor space, and weāre ready to offer even more!
We think we have the solution for your dogās exercise and engagement needs. Introducing... Doglandās brand-new DAY PLAY!
For our day play, dogs may be dropped off with us during the day, and experience our all-outdoors-activities with a human play pal, instead of with other dogs. Our space āattractionsā include an Obstacle Yard, Fetch Space, āFast Laneā¢,ā and Nature Park. Your dog will run, play, learn, and engage with their person for periods of time in the varied fully-fenced-in spaces, then go inside for crate rest in between activities. They will alternate between play and rest all morning and into the early afternoon, with our goal being to wear your canine best friend out, so you can enjoy a tired, happy dog at the end of the day.
The Attraction Spaces are described as below.
(All areas include supervision and engagement with a person).
The Fetch Yard:
This is 100-foot long fenced area, for our fetchers! Ball, Frisbee⦠whatever your dog likes, if they enjoy a good game of fetch, weāve got them covered. This is a fetching dog's dream space, and we are so honored to share it with your dog!
The Obstacle Yard (Coming soon!):
This space is just what it sounds like ā a yard with obstacles for dogs to use their brain and body in! With basic agility equipment, natural obstacles such as tree stumps, small boulders, and other stimulating and fun obstacles, dogs will navigate over, under, through, and around objects to work their mind and bodies. All of this time is spent with a person to help your dog navigate and learn safely, and involves treats and cookies too, of course! The Fast Lane:
Similar to our Fetch Space, the Fast Lane is even longer! This full-fenced 200-foot-long space is one of our favorite attractions. In this space, we use two team members to call the dog back and forth between, for cookies! This "recall game" is one of the most tiring activities we've seen for dogs, and they LOVE it. Have you ever seen a dog's face when they realize they have as much room as they need to actually get "up to speed" to their full capabilities? Let us tell you... it's THE BEST. Dogs in this space have also been known to just run back and forth on their own as fast as they can, just because they can, and they love it.
The Nature Park:
Our Nature Park is one of our favorite spaces as well. This 2,000+ sf space is all natural, fully-fenced, and even has giant trees in it as well. In this area, dogs can just be... dogs! They can play fetch or with a toy with their human companion, play chase, dig, run, sniff, explore, wander, or do anything else they'd like to do in this dirt area meant just for them. We love seeing dogs have space to run and sniff in this area, and they have certainly approved of our Nature Park playground!
Our design and schedules encourages a dogās natural play/rest cycles, and ensures that they are getting what they need as a dog: Play, engagement, LOTS of exercise, and mental stimulation, followed by rest after each activity. We think dogs are great as they are⦠they just need more activity during the day, which we know is hard for you as dog mom and dad to do each day.
Email us to schedule your dog's FREE meet-and-greet! Day Play is currently offered Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, for $39 + tax, plus $2 for treats (or bring your own). Shot records required.
