Good morning, Pals! ☀️

Boo and I heard a rumor that Paws & Play is closing - to that we say NO, WE ARE NOT CLOSING! We are very much open and taking boarding reservations!

However, yes, daycare is closed down at this time. We hope to be back open next spring so your pups can stay and play. Also, the pet wash is under construction and we will make an announcement when it is back up and running for public use.

Thanks for your support - we love our Pals! 🐾

Houdini is back to looking for a home at no fault of his own. 🐾

UPDATE: HE HAS A MEET & GREET MONDAY! 🤞 WISH HIM LUCK!

After finding out one of his new humans was allergic, Houdini is unfortunately back and once again looking for his furever home. 🥺
This poor guy is the sweetest and did nothing wrong.
If you're open to meeting him, send me a message and hopefully he can finally get his Christmas wish. 🎄
Please share to help find him a new furever home!

Thank your for your patience,

All,

First, I would like to thank each of you that have believed in me and my business. When starting Paws & Play it was more than a love for dogs, it was a passion for being more available for the things I was missing out on with my family and getting to love your animals, too. I took on an idea and turned it into this amazing business that has brought me so much joy and earned me lifelong friendships, too.

There is no question that I have the absolute BEST two and four legged clients. Being able to care for your pups for you when you’re working and away is an absolute dream come true! My family has enjoyed caring for each of the pets that have come through our door. With that being said I have to do what is best for my family at this current time. It is no surprise the economy is suffering and the hardships families are facing with the current prices due to inflation. Daycare numbers have drastically dwindled over the last few months and as a business owner sometimes making hard decisions, even temporary, are necessary in order to stay afloat.

Effective immediately Paws & Play, LLC will be discontinuing its daycare services until further notice. This is not a decision that I make lightly, as I love being your pet’s caretaker while you work. But, at this time it is necessary so that I too can make the needed transitions to put my family first. If you have a current daycare package with us, any days you have left will be paid back to you. Boarding will not be affected and we are still taking reservations for the holidays!

If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me!

As always, thank you for continuing to support and believe in this little dream of mine. This isn’t goodbye; it’s see you later.

Your pal,
Kendra

Update: Babe went home with her new Dad this evening and was very happy to do so. Thank you to everyone for the shares. She is going to be a happy girl. 🐾

Meet Babe! 🐶

Babe is a sweet and loving pittie mix that came to stay with us while her owner was ill and in the hospital. Unfortunately, due to circumstances and no fault of her own, Babe will not be able to return home. Her stay with P&P is up as of this Wednesday and she is looking for a fur-ever home and a new owner to love and adore.

Babe is very sweet and you can tell that she misses being home. She will need someone that’s gentle and understanding, as she’s had a lot of changes this last month. She is up to date on all vaccinations, including Bordetella and also has been spayed. She is around 50 lbs and just had a birthday on 10/18, making her 6 years old. She has been around other dogs and showed no interest and has also been around a kiddo and had no issues, as well.

Humans can be absolutely disgusting. If you have any information on this pup or his previous owners, or if you’re interested in giving him a good home, contact the Jackson County Sheriff's Department K9 Control. 🐾

Our friends at Aoife Haus Police K9 LLC have taken care of the adoption fee and are offering training for this guy. ❤️

The good thing about security systems is mine is on all the time. 🎥

Why someone would throw their sh*t into an area that’s clearly for animals I don’t know. The covered chain link didn’t make you think, “that’s probably off limits?” 🛑

I let the splattered milkshakes thrown in my bag less trash can slide because it was at least the trash.

I’m really, really not the one. 💁🏼‍♀️

Stay tuned. 👏🏼

There is a white and brindle pitbull baby without a collar roaming around 2nd street. Does anyone know if a doggo is missing? Looks well fed. He wouldn’t approach me, but he is still showing on my security cameras. 🐶
