Our dog’s loved this place.

Thank you for having a place for the dogs to play during the cold season.

We love dock diving at Dawg Gone It! It is a very fun and encouraging environment. Cass is an amazing trainer on the dock! I highly recommend!

Eady to find and easy to park. Cass helped us start our pup in dock diving. Can’t wait to go back!
