Keeping your dog safe while you’re on the go is essential. 🧡 That’s why we’ve teamed up with Sleepypod to offer products to help your furry family member stay protected.
🐶 The Sleepypod Air takes a doggie carrier to new heights. This innovative design is independently tested and certified by the Center for Pet Safety for pets up to 18 pounds.

Hot weather affects all dogs, but did you know certain features make some pups more vulnerable to the heat? 🤔☀️
👃Breeds with short noses and flattened mouths, such as Pugs, Boxers, and Shih Tzus, can have a bit more difficulty breathing during the summer.
🐶 Labs, Siberian Huskies, and Bernese Mountain Dogs have double coats, which makes them more susceptible to heat-related issues. Hot air gets trapped under the thick layers of fur, making it more difficult to regulate their temperature.
😎 Keeping your pup cool during summer is important for their health and wellbeing. Keep clean, fresh water nearby in a shaded area, and use a damp towel on the floor and/or a fan to cool them down.
🧡 Swing by Dogtopia this summer so your pup can enjoy uninterrupted playtime in our climate-controlled playrooms. We also offer comfortable boarding stays if your pup needs overnight relief from the heat!

Here is a look at some of the dog breeds most affected by the summer heat, along with some tips to help keep your dog cool as the temp rise.
Are you traveling soon? Let your dog enjoy an overnight stay at Dogtopia while you're away! Pet parents can opt for our:
🐶 Safe home-style crates: Dogs are social creatures and can feel secure when they're surrounded by their pack. Pups will sleep with their playgroup and be able to see, smell, and hear their furry friends nearby, which can help alleviate feelings of loneliness or fear.
🧡 Spacious private suites: Ideal for furry family members who want to stick together or for those pups who prefer alone time. Available at select locations.
Contact your local Dogtopia to learn how we ensure that your pup's boarding experience is not only comfortable but also enjoyable.

By the time you get home from your busy day, your dog is a ball of energy! They've spent all day waiting for you to come home. Meanwhile, you need to make dinner, help your kids with homework, and even fit in some time to relax after a long day. Dog daycare is the answer!
Drop your dog off at Dogtopia and let them spend the day socializing with other dogs, interacting with our professionally-trained team, exercising and burning off plenty of pent-up energy. At the end of the day, you'll pick up a happy (and tired) pooch.
We also offer dog boarding for overnight or extended stays, as well as doggie spa services.
