Play Groups
A chance for your pup to socialize and get some exercise
Nothing beats running off-leash
Playgroups are a great setting for your energetic dog of any age to get some exercise and have some fun with other pups. Playgroups are great for your dog to socialize with the pack and learn how to conduct itself appropriately with other canines. Early and frequent exposure to other dogs is a vital part of your dog’s healthy development, to both reinforce safe play and increase your dog’s friendliness towards other pups. While strengthening social skills with other canines, your dog has the added benefit of great exercise, as they can tap into their playful energy and have fun! As the time-tested adage goes, “a tired dog is a happy dog!”

Our playgroups are never a free-for-all. We create a structured and safe environment for your dogs to run around and play with a trained dog handler always present. Playgroups are created by thoughtfully combining dogs of similar size, energy level, and play style to ensure each dog is safe and enjoys their time. Playgroups are held in fenced-in areas and offered both inside and outside, year-round in the Boston areas. We offer 1.5 hour or extended 4 hour playgroups for your dog to enjoy and come home physically exhausted and mentally stimulated.
Consider a playgroup for your pup instead of a solo walk or group walk if your dog has lots of energy to burn, enjoys playing with other dogs, or you would like extra socializing time for your pup. Playgroups are a great option if you are hoping your dog can regularly join you for outings when other dogs are present. Our Yappy Hours are also a great opportunity for your dog to get time socializing and for you and your pup to meet new friends!
