The Perfect Boarding Experience for Your Labrador

If you have a Labrador Retriever, you know they're not just dogs - they're perpetual motion machines with hearts of gold! At Paws & Applause, we've designed our boarding program specifically for Labs who need more than just a place to stay. They need adventure, exercise, and lots of love.

Lab Parent Truth: A tired Lab is a happy Lab! Our daily schedule includes multiple play sessions, retrieving games, and swimming opportunities.

Why Labs LOVE Boarding at Paws & Applause

Daily Swimming Sessions

Labs + Water = Heaven! Supervised swim time during warm months for water-loving Labs.

Fetch Olympics

Multiple daily retrieving sessions with balls, frisbees, and bumpers to satisfy their instincts.

Social Playtime

Labs are social butterflies! Carefully matched playgroups for safe, energetic fun.

Brain Games

Puzzle feeders, scent work, and training sessions to tire out their clever minds.
