Pawsitive Dog Day Care and Boarding

The idea for The FURlough Dog Daycare and Pet Resort was inspired by our love for dogs (and cats) and the recognition of the massive need for daycare and boarding services for busy families in our community. We love our pets as family members and, when circumstances allow, we take them with us on excursions and adventures. On those occasions that they are not able to accompany us, we want to be sure they are safe and well taken care of by someone who cares.
