New spaces to explore!

For the past several years we have had 2 yards at Tails & Trails as well as a fenced gravel area that surrounds the building. During the summer we switch between the yards to give the grass a break every week or so; lots of big feet tearing up the grass and digging holes makes it hard to keep the yards grassy. Well, even busy little feet can be hard on the grass.
But the benefit to switching yards is that the dogs feel like they have a whole new world to explore and you can see their excitement when they run to their regular yard and find out the other gate is magically open!
Imagine our delight the first time we opened up the brand new fenced yards that went in just before the snow flew this year. Since the fence is buried, there was a bit of mud (understatement) but once that froze and we finally got some lovely snow, we opened up the new gate and woohoo...what fun!
The dogs who were the first to go through the new gate had another treat in store for them. Another new door to our Lazy Trail Lounge. I remember our Greyhound guest, Shae, running through the new yard first thing in the morning, kicking up her long legs, her thick bright pink coat flashing in the early morning sunshine. And Dolan, who is a frequent daycare guest, tumbling and jumping over little Monty.
We thrive on routine here at Tails & Trails, but within that routine, we love to switch things up and adding new spaces to sniff and run and play is going to stimulate both our long-time guests and new friends.
