Howl-o-ween Costume Pawty at The Ranch Pet Resort and Spa

by

We had so much fun at our Rockin 80’s Pawty, we want to continue the thrills with a Howl-o-ween Costume Pawty on Thursday, October 28, 2022 that no dog wants to miss!

Calling all Doggie Ghosts, Goblins, Spirits, Witches, and More!

Don’t miss your chance to show off your best self in your favorite costume! Whether it’s a fairy princess, all-star baseball player, or spookie goblin, The Ranch Pet Resort and Spa can’t wait to see how our doggie daycare and dog boarding guests transform The Ranch.

All attendees will have their pictures taken and posted live for all to see on our social media accounts!

Plus, we will be having a costume contest, so get creative and go for the gusto!

Need Costume Inspiration? Take a Look at Last Year’s Attendees

From the simple sweetie to the scariest monster and the sultry super hero, our guests brought their A-game to The Ranch!

Cute pumpkin!

Who can resist this irresistible pumpkin who apparently dislikes the photography part of the party? We sure can’t, and we think the expression is simply a crowd pleaser!

Monster! Boo! So scary!

We love any type of monster costume, especially on our biggies! He wants you to think he’s one big scary monster, but deep down, we at The Ranch Pet Resort and Spa know he’s a marshmallow inside.

Super Hero Dog to the Rescue!

This pup’s able to leap over haystacks, strong enough to play tug of war, and fast enough to get to the water feature before the other dogs without ripping her costume!

We think she owned the look and self-confidence needed to wear this costume, which is why she won one of The Ranch’s most coveted prizes for best costume!

Be a Part of the Howl-o-Ween Fun at the Spookiest Pawty of the Year at The Ranch Pet Resort and Spa

The dogs at The Ranch Pet Resort and Spa are howling with excitement! Some of our more pampered pooches overheard our terrific groomers talking excitedly about the latest developments in the news! It appears our owners have been approved in limited capacity to eat indoors, workout at gyms, go to movies, zoos, museums and more!!!

We cannot stop wagging our tails and behinds because we know that this means our people will want to send us to doggie daycare at The Ranch! It’s a win-win situation! Our humans get a night out and we get to play, run, romp, chomp at the water, roll around with our favorite buddies and get all kinds of love, pets, and attention from the amazing staff at the Number One Veterinarian Recommended Doggie Daycare and Spa!

Imagine the Possibilities at The Ranch Pet Resort and Spa

While it’s been fun to stay at home with our owners, we know our teens and kids want to get back to school, and we don’t blame them. From what we’ve uncovered with our wet, snoopy noses, our kids get to learn, play with their friends, have lunch, see their teachers, and be in activities when they’re in school!  That sounds like a whole lot of fun because it’s what we do in doggie daycare!

Have you seen the games we get to play? Have you spotted us on video? You have to check us out on our Facebook page! It’s updated throughout the day, so our moms and dads get to check us out! Bently “the girl” owned the place in this cute video from Monday’s daycare.

What’s New at The Ranch Pet Resort and Spa

by

We’ve had a lot of excitement these past few weeks at The Ranch Pet Resort and Spa! From touchdown terriers at our Super Bowl Party to smooching poochies at our Valentine’s Pawty, The Ranch Pet Resort and Spa has been filled with excitement!

The Results of Puppy Bowl 2021 are In!

This was a fantastic day for all who participated in Puppy Bowl 2021 and our Super Bowl Game! The day began with some trash talking and delicious steaks and hamburgers. Dogs were divided into teams and some took to the field with vengeance while others watched safely in the laps of our cheer staff!

Some dogs, such as Murphy, took to the field like a champ, converting the extra point and adding his own celebratory doggie dance. Crowds rushed the field to take his picture while he posed like a pro!

All fun and games aside, there were some worthy opponents and plays as well as our own singing and dancing Hot Dog whose rendition of The Weekend’s Blinding Lights impressed all the dogs!

The Winner of Puppy Bowl 2021 is…

We know you are all excited to hear about the outcome of the game. Here’s the commentary by The Ranch Pet Resort and Spa’s owner, Michael Gamache:

“The 4th quarter is getting hectic, some players are owning the field, some are exhausted and hiding, others have completely quit and are enjoying the sun. Congratulations to the Bucs and Sugar their most valuable player. Final score 21-17 Tampa Bay.”

Who knew these dogs would predict the winner of the Real Super Bowl?

Life is More Sweet with Valentine Kisses

We enjoyed a sweet day with our doggie daycare pups at our Valentine’s Pawty! Dogs showed up ready to smooch and shower the ones around them with juicy kisses. As with any romance, some connections were easily made, some are slow to grow, and well, others just haven’t met their match yet!

In any case, all dogs and staff were serenaded by our own costumed tutu’d dalmation, filled with sweet treats, and photographed at our kissing booth! Could this be any cuter?!

New Face of the Day!

We’d like to share The Ranch Pet Resort and Spa‘s New Face of the Day! This sweet adorable Frenchie, Louis, stole our hearts!

Plan Your Pup’s Staycation or Doggie Daycare at The Ranch Pet Resort and Spa

If you would like to take advantage of a day or days of love, affection, games, friends, toys, and more, please contact us. We treat your dog with the same safety, care, and attention as we treat our dogs and are recommended by veterinarians, too!

Valentine’s Day Pawty at The Ranch Pet Resort and Spa

by

Hey, Mom and Dad, The Ranch Pet Resort and Spa is having a Valentine’s Day Pawty, and I really, really, really want to go!

There is a cute Pug Mix at doggie daycare, and I kinda have a crush on her! I know Husky hopes to be her Valentine, and although he’s bigger and fuzzier, I think she may be attracted to my ability to fly through the agility course and my gentlemanly skills like letting her drink from the water bowl before I do.

If it’s not too much to ask, can you set me up for a grooming appointment before the event? I’d like the haircut, nail trim, teeth cleaning, ear cleaning, collar cleaning, and blueberry facial! I’ll be smelling and looking so good she won’t be able to resist me!

Also, I hear that you get a special “gift” to take home from me! Please don’t wait to sign me up for this super fun event!
