HERE IS WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT US!

English Bulldog Adrian

There are no words to describe how happy our English bulldog is when we ask her in the moring "Ready to go to daycare?" Her head tilts to the side, her eyes grown really wide and she sprints to the back door of our house. She goes three times a week to Inn the Doghouse, and it is her favorite place on earth. She is greeted with smiles and lots of love from all of the employees. She plays with dogs of all shapes and sizes, for nine straight hours while we are at work. She doesn't sit down once to take a break. She loves to play tug of war for hours with her best friend Dublin and chase her boyfriend Brady. And at that sad time of 5:30 everyday, when we arrive to pick her up, she does everything in her power to run and hide. She has NO INTEREST in leaving. We literally have to drag her out of there! She loves every second of her day there, and can never get enough of it.

Inn the Doghouse is the best way I can think of to spend our money. I am positive she is safe, happy and in loving hands all day when we aren't with her. We just love Inn the Doghouse!

Harper

Three years ago, my husband Joe and I adopted an eight-week old puppy named Harper. Harper was one in a litter of eleven puppies (ten surviving) born to a very bad off, quite pregnant, and rescued female dog in Cleveland Heights. Joe and I had been living in our first home less just six weeks when we welcomed Harper into our lives. He needed a home, and we were ready to share it. Harper proved right away to be a shy and fearful puppy, though, and Joe and I did not have experience in training such a pup. After consulting with our veterinarian and several dog-loving friends and experts, and while attending puppy/family training classes, we decided to try Harper in doggy day care in order to help him become socialized around both dogs and people and to feel more at ease with the world. Luckily, we found Inn The Doghouse. Harper started attending when he was 16 weeks old.

We cannot say enough good about this place, but here are some of the things that excite us most about Harper's life now, and about ITD itself.

1. Harper loves being at ITD. He is always so excited when we are dropping him off that he "talks" to us from the back seat.
2. He loves it there because the staff takes such good care of him. Right from the start, the staff worked with him to draw him out. Though he is still very cautious of people he has not met, he can't get enough of the ITD staff.
3. Harper holds his own with other dogs. In other words, he is pretty well-socialized dog-to-dog. A lot of this is due to the staff's efforts, drawing Harper out of his shy ways.
4. Harper arrives home from day care with us absolutely exhausted. This tells us he is getting plenty of exercise and play activity, and from this we benefit greatly. Joe and I both work full-time and have part-time work and evening responsibilities, so a quiet, sleeping dog is a good dog indeed.
5. Besides loving the entire staff, Harper also has some very close dog-friends at ITD. Our guess is that having a few dogs with whom he is really tight helps Harper feel more confident.
6. Harper has become more affectionate toward the staff. Given his shyness and fear-based behaviors we are working to modify, this advancement toward affection comes as very good news to us.
7. ITD has a clean, simple, spacious indoor play area with plastic jungle gym, doghouse, and a special small dogs area. This makes play fun for all the dogs. (Harper is a huge fan of ITDs indoor doghouse.)
8. ITD has generously sized outdoor play area, too, which is fantastic because Harper loves the outdoors, even if it's just to sit down and relax.
9. When we leave town, we kennel Harper at ITD and wouldn't think of taking him elsewhere. This is part of the reason he loves it at ITD so much; we really do think he considers it his home away from home.

Joe and I are grateful to ITD and all they have done to help both our beautiful dog and us feel we are all working to give Harper the great life he deserves.

Sincerely,
Marcia C.
