I cannot emphasize enough the importance of off leash dog/dog play. Young or old, large or small, dogs need the opportunity to be with their own kind — it is from their own species they best learn. And the learned become teachers. And dogs who have lost their mojo can get it back. In a safe, structured & dog friendly environment. (see calendar on right hand column for your schedule).

Working off excess pounds!

Think of Drop in Play as A Really Cool Dog Park With Lifeguards. Invite your dogs to join others in an enriched environment in a safely fenced in yard with lots of things to do. Sniff, race, play, wade/swim (seasonal), cavort, learn, relax.

Dogs go home tired. Owners learn about the value of Calming Signals, appropriate versus inappropriate dog play, the working value of The Six Pillars and so much more.

First visit is FREE (requires advanced registration) and discount PUNCH CARDS are available.

Makes a GREAT GIFT .

EXPIRATION ONE YEAR FROM DATE OF PURCHASE. The more punches you buy, the greater the savings.  Location is fenced in backyard in Cleveland Heights, OH.  Advanced registration required.Limited to 10 dogs per session.

Not a client of A BETTER PET? Interested in checking out DIP? EMAIL to discuss how you can.

IMPORTANT NOTE: While each DIP is a two hour time frame (1 hour during winter; 90 minutes in Spring and Fall), and you’re welcome to come to the entire time, even shorter times — 10-15 minutes — can be a useful social outing/experience for your dog. Some dogs may need several shorter sessions if they are socially inexperienced or overwhelmed.
