Information Stephanie M. would like to know about your pet

Please inform me about the status of vaccinations. The bordatella vaccine is very important to protect your baby from kennel cough or from giving it to other fur babies. Please let me know if your dog requires any extra accommodations, feel free to bring some of your favorite pet treats. I have natural treats such as healthy air fried sweet potatoes, frozen berries, Hills science natural fruity crunchy snacks, etc.

I am very happy to provide your pet with stimulating activities such as dog strategy board games, box searching, sniff mats, lick mate, stuffed toys, and more!
