Right before her last stay with us a few weeks ago, Angel's people got bad health news on her so we knew it was most likely our last chance to spoil her. We are so thankful we had that opportunity. And spoil her we did. She was always a favorite ❤️ and we will all miss her terribly. Forever grateful to have been a part of her life. And we promise to continue to love and care for her younger canine companions. Our sincerest condolences to their mom and dad for their loss 💔 RIP Angel. You were so loved.

Day training during daycare. All of these puppies are in our weekend classes, so we spent a few minutes a couple of times today practicing the stuff they know.
Of course, it was during their playtime- so it was a little similar to herding cats.

Yesterday was Dexter's birthday and his drop off for the holiday weekend with us, so we made him a special pup cup! But he was so excited to see us, saying hello was more exciting than the birthday treat! Dexter is one of our regulars who we absolutely love seeing! #dogdayday #doggydaycare #dogboarding #dogtraining #doggrooming #dogwalking #petsitting #dogsofinstagram #dogbusinessofinstagram #dogbusinessoffacebook #dogsoffacebook #smallbusiness #smallbusinesstacoma #smallbusinesswashington #dogbusiness #petprofessionals #petprofessionalsoftacoma #dogrescue #pets #muttsoffacebook #muttsofinstagram #mutts #welovedogs #leashthemuttropup #TheMuttropolitan #TheMuttro #canipetthatdawg #tellyourdogisaidhi

Here are some of our boarding kennels in our building. Some days our pups get squishmallows, other days they get kongs and enrichment toys. These pups go out for multiple walks a day and some of our more social friends get to hang out in the daycare with our daycare friends. #dogdayday #doggydaycare #dogboarding #dogtraining #doggrooming #dogwalking #petsitting #dogsofinstagram #dogbusinessofinstagram #dogbusinessoffacebook #dogsoffacebook #smallbusiness #smallbusinesstacoma #smallbusinesswashington #dogbusiness #petprofessionals #petprofessionalsoftacoma #dogrescue #pets #muttsoffacebook #muttsofinstagram #mutts #welovedogs #leashthemuttropup #TheMuttropolitan #TheMuttro #canipetthatdawg #tellyourdogisaidhi

Cal is still a baby, at 5.5 months. He is an absolute rockstar but he still needs a reminder sometimes. I thought it was important to highlight the less than perfect behavior and how we use it as a training opportunity. Obviously you don't want to have to continue to say your dog's name or make noises, but with consistency and practice, you won't have to. #dogtraining #boardandtrain #dogtrainingoftacoma #basicobedience #obediencetraining #dogtraining101 #dogtrainingislife dogsofinstagram #dogbusinessofinstagram #dogbusinessoffacebook #dogsoffacebook #employeetraining #smallbusiness #smallbusinesstacoma #smallbusinesswashington #dogbusiness #petprofessionals #petprofessionalsoftacoma #welovedogs #leashthemuttropup #TheMuttropolitan #TheMuttro

Dog Daycare has become a popular thing for our beloved pups. But we discovered something was missing in traditional daycare and boarding places that we hoped was a niche we could fill. Our goal is to offer a home like environment for special dogs that need a little extra. Not necessarily a place to socialize with other dogs. (although there is plenty of that as well!) We offer a place where your elderly or special needs dogs can have human companionship and supervision with all of the comforts of home. We have privacy suites where dogs can have their own space but can still see and hear and be seen and heard by our volunteers. And couch and cuddle time is always available!

We offer limited medical boarding and daycare for dogs who have special requirements. We can also offer a safe environment for dogs who are not particularly dog or stranger friendly. It is generally a stress free environment for dogs with social anxiety or separation anxiety as well.
