Welcome to Camp Dilly and Tooey!

Picadilly, aka Dilly is a four year old female english bulldog that comes in with her sister, Ratatoullie, aka Tooey, who is a year and a half year old french bulldog. 


These girls are total opposites!  Tooey runs around playing chase with everyone, always has a ball in her mouth, and is always on the go.  Dilly is more quiet, she is a little shy and for now she likes to observe everyone and sit on the counselor's lap (yes, she thinks she is a lap dog)
We are so glad Dilly and Tooey are part of our small dog camp crew!  Dilly makes us laugh the way she slinks around the camp room and Tooey always has a smile on her face.
 Welcome to camp girls!

Beau Loves Visiting!

Beau, a one year old bengal, comes to stay with us when his parents go out of town.  He is SO much fun to play with! His pastimes include chasing the mouse on the string, lounging around on his back, and eating. 

Beau had a photo shoot in Meow Town, and we were able to get some great action shots of him chasing his mouse.  His beautiful markings are characteristc of the breed; we are getting spoiled enjoying this beautiful cat all day long!
If your kitty would like to stay with us, please call 301-926-6005 or visit the website for more information on cat boarding.

Bark in the Park Saturday, April 17th

There will be plenty of fun for both two-legged and four-legged residents at the City of Gaithersburg’s annual Bark in the Park canine festival. Scheduled for Saturday, April 17 from noon to 3 p.m., the event includes a dog obstacle course, a bone hunt and a costume parade and contest. Bark in the Park takes place at Bohrer Park at Summit Hall Farm, 506 South Frederick Avenue (next to Gaithersburg High School). Admission is only $10 per dog, payable at the event.




The entire afternoon is devoted to our canine citizenry and their owners. Dogs can strut their stuff and pull out their best tricks for the judges in the “Doggone It” costume parade and contest, or show off their hunting prowess in the “No Bones About It” bone hunt. There will also be a dog obstacle course, tips and tricks from a professional dog trainer, prizes, and plenty of useful information and giveaways from a variety of vendors.



New this year is a special leash drive organized by Deborah Hartten of Long and Foster Realty. She will be collecting new or gently used leashes and/or collars for “Leashes of Love,” with all donations going to area dog rescue groups. Leashes may be dropped off at Hartten’s booth throughout the event.

Stop by our Best Friends Pet Care booth and say hi! For more information, visit the event's website.
