Our Happy Hounds Inc.

Our Happy Hounds Inc. is a dog daycare in Indianapolis, IN, running full-day and half-day play at 111 W Stop 11 Rd. Grooming and obedience training sit alongside daycare, so a play day can also include a bath or a nail trim. New dogs come in for a temperament test before they join the group, which says something about how the place runs its playgroups.

What a day looks like

The main draw is a one-acre outdoor play yard, backed by indoor play space for the days Indiana weather turns. Staff split their time between group playtime and one-on-one attention, so a dog who does better away from a crowd has somewhere to be. Owners with a young or newly socialized dog get a read on temperament before the first full day.

Grooming and training

Baths are priced by the size of the dog. Deshedding and brushing, nail trims, and hair trims fill out the grooming menu, and obedience training is booked through the same system as everything else. For a regular daycare dog, that means one place handles both the play and the upkeep.

Booking and practical details

Daycare runs $18 to $28 per day based on the rates published on the kennel's own site. Appointments are requested online at any hour, and Happy Hounds confirms by email once the request comes through. The phone number is 317-727-1642 and the email is ourhappyhounds111@gmail.com. The business also posts to Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok, which is a decent way to see the yard and the dogs before deciding.
