New-dog evaluation

Long days alone aren't easy on a dog with energy to burn

You’re not doing anything wrong — dogs just need more than a backyard and a nap.

Bored and cooped up

Pent-up energy, restlessness, that guilty feeling when you leave for work.

A real weekday routine

Supervised play, enrichment, familiar friends, and a happy, tired dog at pickup.

A Day in the Pack

Real days at Abby’s, start to finish.

Arrival

Tails up, straight to their play group.

Play & rest

Structured play, breaks in between, staff watching closely.

Pickup

Happy, tired, ready for a quiet evening at home.

Why Abby's Is Different

Temperament-first admission

Every dog is evaluated before joining group play — not just accepted on sight.

Consistent playmates

Your dog sees familiar faces, not a different chaotic mix every visit.

Three compatible play areas

Poco, Medio, and Grande — grouped by size, energy, and temperament.

No daily reservation scramble

Members use scan-and-go access — just show up on your scheduled days.

Supervised, structured play

Staff actively manage play, not passive babysitting.

A real community

Member events and seasonal photoshoots — Abby’s is a place, not just a service.

Questions Dog Owners Ask

That’s exactly what the free evaluation is for. Staff observe your dog’s play style and sociability, then place them in the group — Poco, Medio, or Grande — where they’ll do best.
