Using Bear’s love of snow for an enrichment activity! He loves snow, using his nose and especially treats!

Over the holiday season, The Dogs' Spot sponsored a giving tree for North Kansas City's Animal Control & Shelter. Our staff and students donated a whopping 233 items! I'm so touch by the generosity of our community! The Dogs' Spot is truly The Community Spot for Dogs and the People Who Love Them! We hope it makes the New Year a little brighter for the Animal Control and Shelter staff and the dogs and cats in their care. If you would also care to make a donation, you can reference their donation list pictured here.

Due to the road conditions and cold tempatures, we've decided to cancel tonight's Fun Run. Please stay safe and warm and we hope to see you next month! It's still not too late to join us for tomorrow's First Friday Fun Run! Ring in the New Year playing agility with your best friend. Space is limited.
