Luau!

Our luau-themed daycare party on Friday, July 13th was a blast! The weather was perfect - sunny, warm and perfect for hulas and swimming! Our wonderful staff decked out the center in beautiful flowered garlands and tiki decorations, and everbody got into the spirit of things with their leis and bandannas! Even some of our daycare dogs showed up in luau outfits! We had some contests, too! The Biggest Beach Bum award went to Kramer E.! The Most Festive Outfit award went to Gus A.! And our winners for the Hula Contest were: 1st Place - Molly L., 2nd Place - Zoey M., and 3rd Place - Harley M.! We got some great photos of staff and pets alike, too - a fun time was had by all! (Our luau photo slideshow will be posted shortly - sorry for the delay!)

This week was also a big week for new clients! The dog days of summer have brought us several happy new faces! We'd like you to meet:
