Since opening their doors in mid-December, friendly staffers at Happy Dog Hotel have welcomed pooches into a wag-worthy space outfitted with deluxe hotel suites, a private courtyard, and a capacious play zone. Owners can take a complete tour of the clean, brand-new space before packing up pets to stay for a two-night vacation in luxurious digs. Canines rest in a 36-square foot standard suite, which provides each pup with soft blankets, two meals a day plus scrambled eggs with breakfast, four walks to the private courtyard, and a shoeshine. Caring staffers treat dogs like their own, dishing out treats, toys, and medication brought from home at no extra charge. After enjoying a restful snooze, pooches release pent-up energy with romps and heated Scrabble matches in the bustling day care, where attentive staffers ensure safe, friendly play. At the end of their getaway, pups can unwind in the spa, where gentle staff members shampoo, brush, and clip coats (prices vary) before filing nails down ($10 per dog or free with any grooming service) while a stereo plays the soothing sounds of bellies being rubbed.
