Today's the big day! Party starts at 11AM and goes until 2PM. This is a FREE event for Monthly/Annual Members. To all other Registered Members (Meet-N-Sniff Tour passed the vax, vetted & verified process), you can purchase a 24-Hour Playground Pass to attend today! We do not take walk-ups to these events by unvetted dogs, nor do we accept at the door purchases.

During that time, we will have Christmas Photos by Tammy Taylor Photography for $10. As usual, we do take cash, Venmo, IOU, or your card on file. Unfortunately, we do not have a Santa this year.

But also in attendance will be Three Dog Bakery - Apple Valley, MN selling a variety of gifts and baskets. All of these will be inside the Food Area.

For those who signed up to do Secret Santa, don't forget to bring your wrapped/bagged gift with the dog's name on it and who…

Starting on Black Friday and running through Cyber Monday, all BRANDED MERCH is 10% off!! You take 10% off and Venmo us the correct amount. If you need assistance with the discount amount, text us at 952-395-5012 prior to your purchase.

The Secret Santa tree is up.

1. Select a Sock (take it with you);

2. Look inside for the name (make sure you don't have your own dogs name);

3. Purchase a ~$10 dog gift;

4. Bring the wrapped or bagged gift to the Ugly Sweater Party on Sat, Dec 6 from 11am-2pm.

If you want to participate in Secret Santa, you can!! There's a new signup sheet by the Tree (on the office door). Each day I'll check to see if there are any new names, add them to the stockings, then cross the name off the list.

We will have limited hot water on Monday, November 10. We're swapping out the 6 gallon water heater for a 20 gallon!!

With the cold weather approaching, the garage doors will not be open. So tell us if it's smelly/stinky. Sometimes our noses get immune to the smell since we're here most of the day. You can always drop us an email, text at 952-395-5012 or tell us in-person.

We will be again hosting our annual Dog Gear Swap Event on Saturday, October 4 from 11AM to 4PM. Just stop in during that time to browse. You do not need to attend the entire event (think of it like a free garage sale)!
