The Paw Zone is serious about having fun! Our socialization and exercise program provides an outlet for dogs and their owners. We believe that mental stimulation combined with exercise is the key to providing your dog with everything he or she needs to be a successful member of your family.

Dogs are social animals that thrive on being part of a pack, and we have modeled The Paw Zone around this simple concept. Your dog will enjoy the company of new playmates under close supervision by our trained staff.

Our group socialization program is designed to meet the needs of a variety of common canine personalities. From high-energy dogs that need to run off steam, to shy dogs, to dogs that suffer from separation anxiety – the Paw Zone has the ability and expertise to create a constructive group play environment for each individual dog.

In order for dogs to lead happy, active lives with their owners, it is important for them to be balanced and well adjusted. A bored dog that does not get enough daily physical and mental stimulation will likely display undesirable behaviors. The Paw Zone gives dogs plenty of socialization and exercise and sends them home feeling fulfilled and happy.

The Paw Zone has about 5,500 square feet of space dedicated to our pack. Our socialization areas are sectioned off into different groups in order to keep everyone safe. One area is provided for our small dogs, one area for our puppies and timid dogs, and another area is provided for our high-energy dogs.

While at The Zone, your dog will be free to play with other canine companions all day. We do not designate nap times during their stay; we believe that they can nap at home. We do not allow any kind of toys while here as this can cause undesired possessiveness. We also do not provide obstacles for them to climb under or over; we feel that is unsafe in this type of environment.

Our facility is located in the heart of Butchertown on the corner of Spring Street and Mellwood Avenue with convenient access to Interstates 64, 65 and 71.
