Run-A-Muk

Do not recommend if you are concerned about your dog being outside ALL day, in the dirt with questionable supervision. I did not get a good feeling when they will not allow dog owners in the back to check out overnight boarding and or the play area. Have never had a problem with boarding my dogs in my 20 years of dog boarding but there was a distinct lack of empathy from the outside employee in how to work with a variety of reasonable dog personalities. What an undesirable environment! Only positive was the front office reception.

We have a small yorkie and needed a place for her to stay for the day. When I called to set up her assessment they said since she is older and little they would have her stay in the office. I confirmed this when dropping her off with them and was told she could stay inside. Needless to say when we picked her up she had been left outside! I know our girl is a little spoiled, but staff should have been honest when promising to keep her inside. :(

Our dog, a Jindo is a very sensitive and accurate judge of people and environments (probably due to her feral nature associated with being a Jindo), and she loves the people there and loves going there.
Equally important, it is quite obvious that they really love the dogs, and are happy to make an extra effort to accommodate special needs due to age or whatever.
Finally, they are very careful to fully evaluate every dog for aggressive or other potentially dangerous tendencies, which I can say from experience, is not the norm– no matter what a pet boarding/​sitting company says.

My dog has been multiple times and loves it here. She comes home absolutely exhausted after a full day of day care. The staff has always been really friendly. I wish I could afford to send her to places like this more often!

They squirt your dog down if they don’t behave even if it’s freezing outside? Last night when I picked up my dog he was wet and I asked the front desk why and she said for some reason the dogs got wet today. Later the other lady admitted that they hose the dogs down if they misbehave. Also there was some other dog running around soaked behind the front desk too.
They don’t supervise your dog or interact with them at all. How do i know since they don’t give you a tour or have a webcam? Because my dog had chunks of wood and rope in his poop. We don’t have that at home. These recent experiences defeat the purpose of taking my dog to day care here.

I can’t believe I did not already see Run-​A-​Muck listed in Unilocal.I have a 100 pound black lab that is 2 years old and he LOVES it here. I bring him for doggie day care at least once per week so he can play with his friends. He always comes home happy and exhausted. The first visit is free so they can evaluate your pet to make sure there are no issues. For doggie day care you can pay by the day which is what we do. When you pay this way, after 10 visits you get one free with their punch card program. You can also purchase discounted packages of bulk day care. They also do boarding. We have not done that yet but would not hesitate to. The staff are friendly and really seem to care for and pay attention to the dogs. They are always happy to give me a report at the end of the day and tell my how my pooch did. I believe that they are owned by Mile-​Hi Animal Hospital. It is a great place to take your dog for some play time. I usually drop my boy off in the morning before work (8:00 ish) and pick him up at the end of the day (5:00 ish). For the full day of doggie day care it is $ 20.00. Money well spend when my pup comes home so exhausted he wants to eat and sleep. A good puppy is a tired puppy and boy is he tired when he comes home. It is like taking a kid to day camp!
