OkcPets Magazine May 2022

26 OKC Pets • May/June 2022 that the way their process works is making sure the dog is a right fit for the day-care environment and has a friendly tempera- ment with handlers and dogs and making each dog comfortable and secure interact- ing with other pups. That process allows for the safety of the staff and the dogs who attend day care and boarding. The dogs receive tons of love and attention from the staff because the most important mission of Urban Dog House is to make the dogs feel loved, secured, and happy. “The dogs, of course, are hands down the best part of this job,” the owners explain, remembering their first major holiday weekend, Memorial Day 2021, and how happy they were to have their boarding kennels (which are cage free and so comfortable) filled to the brim with wagging tails. “When we got there in the morning, the dogs were jumping for joy and so happy we were there! Can you even imagine? A large amount of barking, happy, excited dogs all ready for you to let them out so they can love on you and play and start their day! The feeling is so fulfilling when you are with them,” Givens said. A Love for Dogs The love the owners have for the dogs in their care and for Urban Dog House in general shines brightly. Looking up the facility online will highlight a plethora of positive reviews from happy pet parents who frequent Urban Dog House for board- ing or day care. One of the client reviews shared by the owners shows just how thorough and well rounded the day-to-day operations at Ur- ban Dog House are. It reads, “They always do great with our dog! He loves to come here, we have boarded him here as well, and he also goes to day care quite often! They require that all the dogs have their shots up to date, and when you do board your dogs, you know they’re not just going to be left in a cage all day while the other dogs play. Your dog gets to enjoy its time with the other dogs and the great staff!” It’s all about the dogs and their comfort and happiness at Urban Dog House. Its owners recall the reason they opened the facility and put it quite simply: “Dogs are very special animals. They are sensitive beings that show unconditional love and are always there for you, whether it is to mourn a sad time or celebrate an excit- ing time. They are family members, very important ones at that. They should have a place to go where they get the same love and care that they get at home — that is why we created Urban Dog House.” For more information about boarding, day care, and grooming packages, contact Urban Dog House via https://urbandog- houseok.com.
