You’ll never regret spending too much time with your dog.

There’s one thing I love about Fall—and it’s not Pumpkin Spiced Lattes…

It’s our beautiful, cozy indoor space where you and your dog can escape the hustle of city life without worrying about the weather. 🍂🐾

At Bosly’s Backyard, our mission is to give you and your dog a safe, fun place to make lasting memories together. 🐶♥️

We’ve loved partnering with photographers to offer these special photo sessions throughout the year, so you can capture those beautiful, unforgettable moments with your furry companions. 🫶🏻

Please enjoy a few highlights from our Fall Photoshoot Event this past Saturday, with photos by . 📸✨

And don’t forget to book your Fall playdates! Whether your pup loves hanging with their own squad or meeting new friends, we have something for everyone at Bosly’s Backyard.

Treat yourself and your fur baby to a day of safe, worry-free play—your pups will thank you, and so will we!

If this made you smile, give it a like! ♥️

And our favorite thing at Bosly’s Backyard is...

One of our long-time clients, Swift, has been coming to Bosly’s Backyard since we opened in Ravenswood in 2021.

At every appointment, his parents are thrilled to see him gain confidence, conquer new activities, and try out new equipment.

Just last week, they said it was Swift’s best visit yet!🏅

They’ve watched his fear of unfamiliar places and objects melt away as his self-assurance builds at every session. 💪🐕

There’s nothing better than seeing a shy, timid dog walk in unsure of the space—only to be running through tunnels and jumping through hoops like a pro by the end of their session. 🙌

If your dog is like Swift, here’s what they’ll experience at Bosly’s Backyard.

A safe, stress-free space where your dog can run freely and be the happy, confident pup they’ve always wanted to be. 🐕✨

We created Bosly’s Backyard to be your dog’s HAPPY PLACE! 🎉 Offering an experience you won’t find anywhere else in Chicago—or even the country.

PLUS...

Our space is CLEAN—like squeaky clean! 🧼 We hear it almost daily, “It doesn’t even smell like dog.”

It’s BEAUTIFUL—a Chicago-style industrial loft with exposed brick. 🧱 Our facility used to be a wedding venue! We even had a client get engaged here just last year! 💍

It’s HUGE—and did we mention the FREE PARKING?! 🚗 We couldn’t make that more convenient if we tried.

We pride ourselves on providing an upscale experience you won’t find anywhere else.

Whether your dog prefers to hang with their own squad or meet new dog pals, there’s something for everyone at Bosly’s Backyard! 🐾

Comment ‘HAPPY’ and we’ll DM you the link to book quality time at your dog’s happy place today! ❤️

This story always makes me tear up...

One of our very first clients, Orca, along with her humans George and Nicole, had their lives transformed by Bosly’s Backyard.

They rescued Orca, a pittie 🐶, from Chicago Animal Care and Control in April of 2020, after she had endured terrible abuse and neglect.

Orca was found tied up, her collar embedded in her neck, weighing barely 40lbs. 💔

Orca is highly reactive to other dogs, cats, and squirrels, making walks incredibly stressful Nicole & George.

In August 2020, Nicole and George found us—and quickly became weekly regulars. 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

Having a safe space where it’s just Orca and her parents, without the triggers of a regular walk, gives Orca the chance to simply be a happy dog again. 🐾💖

She even loves showing off her “Show Dog” skills on the agility equipment! 🏅

🐾 Comment ‘DOG’ if you want to give your dog the safe, happy, and comfortable space they need to thrive. ❤️
