The Dog Stop

The Dog Stop The Dog Stop West Board Street, a 12,500 sq. We were bred from the beginning to be America's best all-inclusive indoor/outdoor dog care facility.

ft+ dog care facility, features luxury dog boarding accommodations, an indoor/outdoor interactive & social daycare experience, a spa-like dog grooming retreat, holistic retail store, & much more. The owners of The Dog Stop® spent several years researching the pet care industry, surveying the needs of local pet owners, and planning an all-inclusive facility after they saw a lack of transparency in

the industry. Their goal was to create a fun and safe environment where dogs would love to come and play, and pet owners would feel 100% confident in the superior care that their dogs were receiving. In 2009, the first The Dog Stop® doors opened in Pittsburgh, PA. Since that day, The Dog Stop’s mission has been to deliver a superior experience for the dogs and their whole families by providing a safe environment, offering educational opportunities, anticipating and exceeding the needs of clients and their pet companions, instilling complete peace of mind for those we serve – and to earn their trust every day! Today, there are over 20 Stops throughout the United States! Each Stop is locally owned and operated, but was bred and trained on the original The Dog Stop morals and mission. The Dog Stop® is here to offer an honest and reliable pet care solution so that you can be the awesome pet parent you need to be!

Meet Nye! 🐾 This gentle giant is ready to steal your heart—and your lap! Nye was found as a stray on New Year’s Eve and hopped right into his finder’s car, proving he’s a people-loving pup through and through. He’s all about toys, treats, and belly rubs, and he can’t wait to find a family that will shower him with love. 🥰

Looking for a snuggle buddy? ♥️ Nye is your guy! While we’re not sure how he feels about other furry friends, HARP’s team can help with introductions and set up a meet-and-greet at the shelter. Nye does have some medical considerations, and HARP’s medical team will be happy to provide more details before adoption.

Ready to meet Nye? Stop by Humane Animal Rescue of Pittsburgh and see if he’s the perfect fit for your family! 🐾

🐶✨ Training Tip Tuesday! ✨🐶
5 Reasons Positive Reinforcement is Best!
1️⃣ Faster Learning & Retention – Dogs learn quickly and remember longer when rewarded with treats, praise, or play.
2️⃣ Stronger Bond – Rewarding good behavior builds trust and deepens your connection with your pup.
3️⃣ Less Fear & Anxiety – Unlike punishment, positive reinforcement makes training stress-free and fun.
4️⃣ Lasting Results – Dogs trained with rewards are more likely to repeat good behaviors consistently.
5️⃣ Works for All Dogs – No matter the age, breed, or temperament, positive methods are effective for every pup!
Train smarter, not harder—reward the good and watch your dog thrive! 🐾💙

Say hello to Chicory! 🐶 This adorable pup came to Humane Animal Rescue of Pittsburgh (HARP) as a stray and has blossomed into a joyful and loving companion. Though she was initially a bit nervous, Chicory has made incredible progress in building her confidence. She's a pint-sized cuddle bug who adores attention—especially after getting her zoomies out! 🐾

Treats are the way to Chicory's heart, and she's learning that humans can be her best friends. If you have another dog at home, it is recommended to schedule a meet-and-greet to see if they’re a perfect match. Stop by HARP's East Side shelter to meet this little sweetheart! 💗
