Palouse Pooch Playground

Palouse Pooch Playground is a cage-free dog daycare at 7028 S. Waneta Road in Spokane, WA, open on weekdays for dogs who need company and exercise while their owners are busy. For owners on the South Hill looking for dog daycare in Spokane, it offers indoor and outdoor play, small supervised groups and a few practical extras like feeding and medication.

What does a day at the playground look like?

Dogs spend the day in small, supervised play groups instead of kennels. There are two fenced outdoor play areas, each with double gates. Indoor space gives dogs a place to rest and to keep playing when the weather turns.

The owners describe dogs as pack animals who are happier with their pack, and the setup reflects that idea. Energetic dogs and calmer dogs don't have to share one space. Separate active and quiet play areas mean a dog who needs a break can get one.
