Our shepherd/retriever mix, Bruce, loves The Barker Lounge. He's rambunctious at 1 year of age and loves when he gets to have play days here! The staff is always so friendly, know him by name, and we trust him being under their care. Even when he had a medical issue with his patella, they watched him carefully and categorized him with different age groups of pups to give him easier playing if the patella acted up. The facility is clean and provides great space for romping and rolling, even pools for hot days outside. We also board him here often during our travels. Not a day do we worry about him, we miss him, but know they take wonderful care of him. Added bonus is when we look on Facebook and see him in a video or picture happily playing :) Love it here. He also gets groomed here, always wonderful work and he looks so handsome after! Love it! You should trust your pup family member here.
