Plan Your Visit

Everything you need to know before spending time with our rescue dogs.

Inside the Dog Lounge

Our dog lounge is a calm, safe haven where people and adoptable rescue dogs connect in meaningful ways.

Each 50-minute session is limited to up to 6 guests and approximately 4–6 dogs, creating a relaxed, home-like environment where both dogs and people can feel at ease.

Slow down, unwind and get to know each dog’s unique personality—beyond a photo or profile.
