What makes it different from other kennels?

Space is a big part of the appeal. The facility lists over 10,000 square feet of turf play areas. It also has an outdoor grassy yard with slides and a doggy pool. Staff separate dogs by size, sociability and temperament, so a small or shy dog won't be put in a group of big, rowdy players.

Owners who are traveling can check in on their dog through live video feeds. Staff can give medication and follow special diets, which helps if a dog is older or has food allergies. Few boarding kennels offer hydrotherapy and treadmill sessions. Those options may appeal to owners of high-energy dogs, or to anyone who wants their dog to get exercise when the weather turns bad.
