Poochof the Week
Ginger Ginger! What a perfect name for this little dog. She's a sweet Dalmatian puppy covered with lots of brown spots and is only 4 months old. She loves to run and play with all her pals, but her favorite place is sitting in someone's lap, which is fine with us!

Playful Pooch is Denver's Premier Dog Daycare and Boarding Center Playful Pooch offers doggie daycare, spacious overnight dog boarding kennels and ABKA certified pet technicians. We have over 7,500 square feet of indoor/outdoor doggie daycare play areas and 3 live dog webcams so you can view your pooch during their stay. All of our dog kennels are 25 square feet (no crates here) and include pet cots at no extra charge. Big dogs and little ones alike each have their own play areas making Playful Pooch's doggie daycare Denver's best place for any size dog. Playful Pooch is conveniently located just south of I-70 on Holly Street, making it the most convenient place for dog boarding in Denver when you are on the way to DIA (Denver International Airport).
Our goal is to provide a social setting where your dog can play with other dogs throughout the day in a safe and clean supervised play group environment. We require that all dogs be socialized and able to participate in group play. In order to assure the safety of all dogs in our care, we have a zero tolerance policy. If a dog displays any aggression towards another dog, it will be removed from the play group and segregated in a "time-out" area and the owner will be advised of the inappropriate behavior. These incidents can result in the dog being prohibited from future attendance.
Our kennel boarding rates are $35 per day and include daycare at no extra charge, a $22 value! A second dog will receive a 25% discount if sharing the same kennel with a sibling. Our VIP "Very Important Pooch" Dog Boarding Club saves you even more money. After just five visits, your discounts rapidly start increasing. For more information, see the article below.

You Want a Place Where Everybody Knows Your (Dog's) Name by Chris Bosch, the broomfielder Playful Pooch was recently featured in the March 2007 issue of the broomfielder magazine. The article was titled "You Want a Place Where Everybody Knows Your (Dog's) Name" by Chris Bosch.
..."Another option is Playful Pooch Dog Daycare & Boarding, "just a bark away from DIA". If you live near Stapleton, Park Hill or Lowery area (or you're on your way to the airport) this might be a good option. They offer 7,000 square feet of indoor/outdoor playgrounds, online dog cams, comfortable PetCot dog beds in every "mini suite and no forced nap times..."your dog plays when they want!" Do they have one of these for humans?! All natural treats, XM Satellite Radio and ABKA certified pet care technicians make for a luxurious stay. The last hotel I stayed at didn't have half these amenities! 720-941-PLAY "

"I can't say enough about how blessed I am to have found "The Pooch"! As my only "children", I am very picky about where Maggie and Jack can stay and not only am I satisfied - the "kids" LOVE it! Every staff member there treat the dogs as if they were their own and love them as such! In addition, Brenda, Will and Jason also care as much about the owners as their furry guests! Not only would I recommend Playful Pooch to anyone - I would insist on it!"

"Brenda & Will Miller Rock! They have completely transformed the Playful Pooch since taking over this year. My six year old boxer mix Karma loves going there for boarding, and believe me, it's her home away from home considering the amount of travel I do for work. I wouldn't feel comfortable entrusting my "little girl" to anyone else. Keep up the great work!"
Todd C
"The owners, Will and Brenda Miller are the greatest. The kennel is one of the cleanest I've ever seen. I worked for a noted veterinarian for several years while going through college and I can honestly say that this is the best run kennel I've ever seen. My dog Dizzy is a 14 year old English Setter and she loves to go to daycare and to board. She NEVER comes home with fleas, kennel cough or dirty. I can't say that about some of the other kennels in Denver."
Greg B
"Our canine twosome lodged at PLAYFUL POOCH over the Thanksgiving holiday. We truly believe the level of care at PP is superior, especially given that ours are rescue mutts with some special needs. The PP staff was sensitive to their needs and really made the extra effort to ensure they were happy, safe and comfortable. A++"
Deborah and William P
"I have checked out all of the local doggy daycare places around town, and this is by far the best place hands down! I used to send my dog to an infamous place but he got fleas and he always had kennel cough. My dog Jedi is so excited to go there, he actually has a smile on his face. He comes home pooped out, but with a dog that happy, who cares? They really do a wonderful job here. The place is extremely clean and the staff are wonderful!"
