🚨 New! Daycare Enrichment Add-Ons 🚨

We’re beyond excited to introduce Daycare Enrichment Add-Ons—a brand-new way to make your dog’s daycare days even more fulfilling! Our enrichment menu is attached, and we’ll be testing out all the activities in the coming days!

Today, we kicked things off with a complimentary Story Paws session, where Jessie read Bambi to Nemo, Lady, Cleo, and Logan. This structured break gave them a chance to step away from the excitement of playgroup, relax, and bond with a favorite human.

Here’s what’s next:
🐾 Each day, we’ll draw one lucky dog from those in attendance to try a new activity, and we’ll be sharing the fun!
🐾 We’ll be tracking each dog’s extracurricular activities so we can see what they love most—and what they don’t find as exciting. The goal is to make this truly beneficial for them!
🐾 Space is limited! We can only accommodate a set number of activities per day, so sign up early before spots fill up! You can book through the PetExec app, at drop-off, or by reaching out as usual.

🐶 And there’s still more to come! Next month’s special theme will call on your dogs to unleash their inner superheroes! Get ready for activities that showcase their heroic talents, daring skills, and brave hearts! 🦸‍♂️🐕 Stay tuned for more details…

We’re thrilled to offer more than just traditional daycare—we’re creating experiences that engage, enrich, and excite your pups!

Hey 4LF Pack,

It’s me, Donnie the Aussie, Lead Canine Consultant at 4LF! 🐶✏️

The humans think they’re designing something amazing for us, but let’s be real—my daycare pals and I had to step in to make sure they got it right. We’ve been hard at work (in between zoomies and belly rubs, of course) instructing our staff on what we REALLY need to make our days even better. We told them loud and clear—we’re not just cute bodies! Our minds need to be engaged, too!

So, while they’ve been putting the finishing touches on our super-secret scent space (coming soon!), we also made them cook up a whole new menu of enrichment add-ons for daycare dogs. 🎉 We’re talking next-level fun—sniffing, searching, problem-solving, and tasty rewards!

And the best part? To make sure they got it just right, we insisted that before the big launch, one lucky daycare dog each day gets to try out a new activity for FREE—until we’ve tested them all. (Quality control is important, okay?)

I, personally, was very paws-on in designing the Snuffle Café. I take my treats very seriously, and let me tell you, it’s gonna be a hit! 🍽️🐕💨

Stay tuned, hoomans! The enrichment menu is coming soon, and trust me—you’re going to want to sign your pup up! We made sure of it. 😉

Sloppy kisses and wagging tails,
Donnie the Aussie (and my hardworking human staff)

P.S. Keep an eye out for the Grand Opening of our Scent Space! The humans are still putting on the finishing touches, but we’re keeping a close eye on them. 🧐

We have some exciting new additions at 4-Legged Friends, and we can’t wait to share them with you!

Now Accepting Unaltered Males for Lone Wolf Lodging

We understand that many veterinarians now recommend waiting to neuter for the health and well-being of growing pups. To better support our clients in making the best decisions for their dogs, we are now accepting unaltered males over 7 months old for our Lone Wolf Lodging option. This change allows those who are waiting to neuter to still enjoy a safe and enriching boarding experience.

Introducing Pup Cups – The Perfect Treat!

We’re thrilled to introduce our newest daycare add-on: Pup Cups! Unlike the sweet treats you’ll find at your local barista, our pup cups are made just for dogs—free from harmful sugars, preservatives, and allergens. Available in dog-approved flavors like Peanut Butter, Bacon, Chicken, Pumpkin, and Original, they’re the perfect reward during a fun day of play!

Taste tested and approved!

💲 Pup Cups are just $2—available as a daycare add-on or a take-home treat!

Something Big is Coming… Stay Tuned! 👀🔍

We’ve been working on something top secret behind the scenes, and it’s almost time to share the big news! Our upcoming Enrichment Program will take your dog’s daycare experience to the next level with engaging, mentally stimulating activities. We can’t spill all the details just yet, but trust us—you and your pup won’t want to miss out!

Keep an eye out for more details in the coming days, and be ready to sign your pup up for something truly special! 🐶✨

As always, thank you for being a part of the 4-Legged Friends family. We’re so excited for what’s ahead and can’t wait for your pups to enjoy these new offerings!

Koegel has been practicing his Christmas caroling, possibly the best we’ve heard this year 🎶 #dogsofinstagram #dogdaycare #doghowling #christmas

Last chance for the 4LF Halloween photo shoot is tomorrow! As you can tell, Gizmo is a professional model, and always does exactly what you ask him to…. Well kind of 😂 But he sure has fun doing his own thing! #dogsofinstagram #halloween #dogdaycare

Brooke, Angus and Gunner discover the jolly balls. Why are they so big? They definitely need to be investigated 😅 #dogsofinstagram #dogdaycare #jollyballs

Who loves bubbles?! The Pawcific Heights gang seeing the new bubble gun for the first time 🥰 #dogsofinstagram #dogdaycare #bubbles

The snuggle is real for Rana! One of the best bits we’ve discovered since creating 2 groups within Pawcific Heights is that we can add some cozy blankets for the pups who want to take a Power Nap, which is really great for our lodging guests like Rana! #dogsofinstagram #dogdaycare #cozyvibes

Who knew we had one of America’s most talented dogs right here at 4LF! Check out Luna from Hollywood Boulevard teaching Corinne how to play catch! #dogsofinstagram #smartdog #dogdaycare

Pawcific Heights
Pawcific Heights

I’m sure most of you have noticed some changes on our Pawcific Heights cameras over the past few weeks. We’ve been doing a trial to create a more customized experience for our guests. By dividing our largest group in half, we are able to create more harmonious play for everyone. Since covid happened, and changed so many things in the world, it became apparent that it wasn’t only for the humans. A lot of dogs seemed less comfortable with the large groups, and forced social interactions. By making this change we are able to match together like minded dogs, who enjoy each other’s company. Similarly, if we have a dog that is struggling, we can switch groups and eliminate the need for unnecessary “time out” breaks. The other great change, is that we are able to spend much more one on one time with all of our guests, which they are really enjoying! A pawrent asked me this week how things are going, and the answer is a resounding GREAT! The dogs are thriving, and we think this change is here to stay! The other question I’ve been asked is about outdoor time. Rest assured, both groups still get plenty of outdoor play in the full outdoor yard. We realize that you can’t see the full set up on camera, so we wanted to show you how the back half of the room gets outside. Just look at these happy, well mannered pups coming inside after some zoomies! If you have any questions about the new set up, please let us know 🐶

If you’re in need of a Monday pick me up, just check out Trudy having the time of her life with the Sprinkler 😎 #dogsofinstagram #stbernardpuppy #dogdaycare

It was a happy, fun filled day on Pawcific Heights today! #dogsofinstagram #dogdaycare #pooltime

Great work Thomas!
Great work Thomas!

Following on from last nights rare mythological sighting - have you ever heard of this one? An obedient chocolate lab?? Definitely a rare sighting at 4LF, but with the help of Corinne, Thomas is taking a quick break from his normal zooming, and practicing “place” , “sit” AND “wait” We love nothing more than seeing our dogs excel, while still having fun! Great work Thomas, we are so proud of you 🩷

Sunshine Funtime!

Opie was enjoying the sunshine today, let’s hope this is the real start of spring! ☀️
