Your Pet’s Home Away from Home
We offer Doggy Daycare, Self-Serve Swimming, Assisted Swimming, Land Play Days, and Swim Play Days.
Doggy Daycare
Drop your dog off for the day to play with friends while you're at work or just need to get some errands done! They will spend their day outside playing with other dogs and the AFPPTeam, with a break in the middle of the day for a nap.
We have two large play areas outside for them to run and play with each other under supervision. Activities we can provide include: puzzles, training, small group play with AFPP team members, hikes, etc.
If it is your dog's first time, please call to schedule an evaluation. Dogs react differently to other groups of strangers when you're not there and Doggy Daycare may not be ideal for their personality. Evaluations are scheduled for 7:30 am to give your dog the time to become comfortable with the space before meeting new dogs.

Why should I take my dog swimming?
Swimming can be incredibly beneficial to people and dogs. It allows for a nearly full-body exercise without the stress or strain on the joints from walking or running. Water resistance causes the muscles to work harder, giving the body a better workout in 5-minutes of swimming compared to running.
If your dog is fit, swimming can be used to improve strength and stamina. This can help to protect them from injuries when they are running or chasing a ball.
If your dog has a medical condition that restricts or prohibits normal exercise, swimming is vital. For conditions such as osteo-arthritis, hip dysplasia, or other orthopedic conditions such as fractures , swimming provides a weightless exercise to improve joint movement, increases circulation, and builds muscle, while walking on hard ground could be painful and cause lameness.
For those dogs who need to lose weight, swimming can enable a good use of the muscles and increase the metabolic rate. Since the water helps to support the weight, the bones and joints are not over stressed.
As with any fitness program, we need to start slow so don't be surprised if your dog can only swim for a few minutes at a time. As their fitness improves, they will be able to swim for longer periods. We will put a life preserver on them until they can swim well without one. When your dog first starts with us, we will be in the pool to assist them. Once they are confident, you may choose unassisted swimming or we will be happy to continue to help with them.
Play Days
Land Playday
Bring your dog out to play! For an hour on Saturdays you and your dog can play with our groups.
Bring your dog on leash and once they have greeted each other we will let them loose to play. We have an acre fenced in the front yard for the large dogs and a half an acre fenced in the back yard for the small dogs and puppies with lots of shade so they can play safely.
If we do not have their vaccinations on file, please bring a copy when you come.
Hours:
Satuday 2pm-3pm
Prices:
$5/dog
If your dog doesn't play well with others or you can't come during the scheduled play days, you can still reserve the play area for your dog to be able to run free in a safe, fenced area. Just call and reserve a time. The cost is still only $5.00/dog for an hour of play.
Pool Playday

Bring your dog to swim, splash, and have fun with other dogs in the pool. They must get along with others.
The first day this summer will be May 15, 2023 and we will continue pool play day thru September.
