"4 stars for drinks. I just wanted a seltzer water or any kind of non alcoholic / on sugary drink which seemed like a basic ask that they didn’t offer, so I didn’t end up getting anything to drink. I will say shout out to the park referee, doing the lords work of helping dogs behave and picking up poop. That was 5 star service. My dog had a blast and overall it was a very good vide."

"Great new dog park in east village. The doodle meetup we went to on Saturday was a blast. The indoor and outdoor areas are all extremely dog friendly and fun to explore. Staff was attentive in helping break up things if dogs were getting too rowdy to play. There's ample water sources everywhere, and it's great having both indoor and outdoor zones to take a break from play. $15 for a day pass felt a little steep considering after 2 hours of play, most dogs are ready to head home. I wish that admission included a discount on some of the drinks or some benefit for the people side of things. Hopefully this improves as the business establishes! I also wish there was better signage for doors and the check in process & rates - there are three different doors I noticed from the outside to enter, and none of them seemed accessible or had signage of what would be considered the "main entrance" or exit. For accessibility, my wife who wasn't with me is a wheelchair user, and I always scout these things for her to join me in the future. Even after talking to the front desk, I wasn't clear how we'd enter together with a dog in tow. All visible entrances have doors and steps, which adds a small challenge bringing excited dogs as well. Hopefully this improves in coming months as well!"

"Really fun place to bring your pup. Fun drinks and a relaxing atmosphere. My pup felt safe and happy the entire time."

"Staff was great at check in. Clean nice place. Outside heater and lots of chairs. Staff was very good keeping the peace with the dogs if they got to playful. Hot chocolate, beers and seltzer. Taco truck in the parking lot. Highly recommend."
