With today's side deal, you can give the dog you love a vacation from the stress of his high-pressure Segway-chasing job. For $39, you get your pooch a three-night stay at Topanga Pet Resort, an up to $147 value depending on weight. The requisite vaccinations and a meet-and-greet consultation prior to your dog's stay are required. Dog "families" can be kept together. Non-aggressive dogs only; no cats or aggressive cats. This deal is not valid November 24–28, during "The Hunt."

Nestled amidst the greenery of Topanga Canyon, the Resort offers 5–7 hours of supervised outdoor playtime a day on six acres of open yards and trails. Dogs are segregated by size, so 2-pound Chaingun won't be able to pick on the bigger dogs. When night falls, fidos enjoy blissful dreams of fat, slow rabbits in a climate-controlled indoor shelter. The Resort provides scrumptious dog food, but you can provide your own if your mutt lives exclusively on saffron-infused truffle risotto. Owned and operated by a licensed guide-dog trainer, Topanga Pet Resort allows your canine companion to come home slightly more erudite than when he left, or at least liable to request opera music during belly rubs.

Reviews

Citysearchers rate Topanga Pet Resort 4.5 stars, and five Yelpers give it 3.5 stars:

• I heard about this place from my vet and I have been taking my dog here for over a year. He loves it- bounds right out of the car every time I drop him off! I feel great knowing that he's having a good time while I'm on vacation. They are in a beautiful setting with tons of room for dogs to run and play…My dog has several regular friends that he gets to see whenever he goes, so it feels more like a playdate than a kennel- almost like taking him to the dog park and being able to leave him there! The owners love dogs and own their own, so they really know what they're doing. – heather5000, Citysearch
• My dog is actually as happy to go to TPR as he is when I go to pick him up. The dogs are separated by size and spend lots of time playing outside with the other dogs. – Lisa B., Yelp
