Pricing is all-inclusive: unlimited outdoor small group play time, food, homemade snacks, etc. Howl-a-Day Inn (HADI) Dog Boarding & Daycare is a small kennel on the Westside providing the best individual care for your dogs in El Paso, TX. We're all-inclusive and don't charge extra for playtime, food, homemade snacks, treats, toys, giving medicine, or anything else your dog needs while away from ho

me. The dogs who are staying with us are our #1 priority! HADI is staffed 24/7 for your dog's safety & well-being. We're locally-owned by Melina Garos, who has over 16 years' dog handling experience; she used to train Search & Rescue dogs for the Red Cross in Germany. Please give us a call at 915-355-7949 to schedule your kennel visit. We want to make sure that you have all the time you need to have all your questions answered. Our main priority here at HADI is to provide a safe and fun environment for your dog. We always strive to find the right doggie playmates, so your dog has fun and friends. We watch your dog closely to make sure his/her experience playing with others will be a great one. We make sure that any dogs who are not happy (shy, older, or fearful) hang out in playgrounds and will either have a yard to themselves, or share with just one other dog. We stand behind our philosophy: No dog deserves to be kept in a kennel during the day time! It is important to us to make sure your dog will have the chance to be in or around the “action” and not feel left out or lonely. We provide high quality & nutritious food and treats. We are constantly researching food recalls or treat recalls. After the last beef jerky recall, we started making our own dog jerkies and we cook a special menu on Holidays. For dogs who refuse to eat, or don’t have an appetite, we watch them carefully and try to do everything in our power so your dog will eat. We use different kinds of canned food that we mix together and we always have home cooked ground beef or chicken on hand. In some cases, we hand feed. Some of the precious dogs we board need medication on a regular basis. We make sure your dog won’t miss any of them by using our sign off sheets. Since we know that for some dogs boarding can be stressful and scary, we provide Kong toys in all sizes, filled with either peanut butter or cream cheese to keep your dog occupied and busy. Puzzle toys are also provided for mental stimulation. Our Facility provides a kennel environment and our boarding room is filled with crates of all sizes. We do want to make sure that every dog feels safe. Some of the babies we board are happy in the large kennel area and love to communicate with their neighbors in the evening, others feel and do better in a plastic or metal crate. All dogs have bedding which we provide. You are very welcome to also bring bedding and some toys from home, so your dog won’t feel too stressed out the first 1-2 days . Our experience has shown us that it takes around 2 days for your dog to adapt to a new routine. Many other facilities do not include the things we offer in their boarding fee and will charge extra. Our prices continue to include daycare, treats, food, treat toys, etc., but in order to stay in business and provide your dog with what we believe is necessary for a healthy and happy stay with us, we have to raise our prices. Our new daily prices effective June 1, 2022 are:
$35 - 1st dog
$32 - 2nd dog
$28 - 3rd dog

A 50% deposit of the total boarding fee must be paid at the time of reservation. If you cancel within 72 hours prior to your dogs stay, you will forfeit your deposit. Long-term boarder: 1 month $1,085 (all inclusive), pay at time of reservation, cancelation 5 days prior to the reservation, 50% will be not refundable. Owner also has to provide us with a copy of his/her driver’s license and credit card. (15% OFF Military discount available.)

Also, any early pick up during these holidays is not refundable. New Daycare fee is $24 per day.

GIGI, saved by us from the 2014 Chaparral Hoarding Situation, and adopted out 2x, and sadly came back to us.
Her Mom died and her Dad is going to assistant living.
We know, her Mom and Dad loved her dearly.
And my heart is broken, knowing I'm not able to give her what a senior dog , after losing her family, needs.
Gigi is a Senior , we guess 13 years old and is struggling to understand what the heck is going on in her little life.
We are hoping to find a new, calm home for her.
She should not spend her last years in Dog Boarding, but with someone who can give her back what she just lost!
She is super sweet and calm. Housebroken and at the moment, sleeps in a crate .
If you think you can be the one who would give Gigi a loving home, please let us know!

:) Beautiful Dogs

A family of Xolos, one of the most ancient dog breeds in the world.

The Xoloitzcuintli, often called “Xolo” or “Mexican Hairless Dog,” is one of the world’s oldest and rarest dog breeds, with a history tracing back over 3,000 years. Revered by the Aztecs, Toltecs, and Maya, the Xolo was considered sacred, believed to guide the souls of the dead safely to the afterlife. Its name comes from “Xolotl,” the Aztec god of lightning and death, and “itzcuintli,” meaning dog.

Xolos come in three sizes, toy, miniature, and standard, and can be either hairless, as seen in this family, or coated. Their smooth, dark skin and upright ears give them a striking, almost otherworldly appearance. Beyond their looks, Xolos are known for their loyalty, calm temperament, and strong bond with their families.

Still considered a national treasure in Mexico, the Xolo is recognized as a cultural icon, symbolizing resilience and heritage. Today, they are cherished as both loving companions and living links to an ancient past.

Our Story

Howl-a-Day Inn (HADI) provides safe and secure boarding and training services, as well as daily doggy daycare Mon - Sat. We are locally owned by Melina Garos, who has over 14 years of dog handling experience. Before moving to the USA, she trained Search and Rescue dogs for the Red Cross in Germany.

Our main priority here at HADI is to provide a safe and fun environment for your dogs. We stand behind our philosophy that no dog deserves to be kept in a kennel during the day time. It is important to us to make sure your dog has plenty of opportunities to interact with both people and other dogs so they don’t feel bored, anxious, or lonely.

We strive to find the right canine playmates so your dog has fun and friends. We work with your dog to make sure his/her experience playing with others will be a great one. That means we watch your dog’s behavior closely, and train or work with him or her as needed. We make sure that any dog that is shy, older, or “aggressive” either has a yard all to themselves, or shares with just one other dog.

In addition, we provide high quality & nutritious food and treats. We are constantly researching food and treat recalls. After the last beef jerky recall, we started making our own dog treats, and we cook a special menu on holidays.
