Attention School Teachers!!

You're Back to School.....but where's your dog??

The Good Dog Spot, located on Old James Street at the Chicopee/South Hadley line, welcomes the opportunity to provide top quality care and education for your “canine kids” while you’re busy taking care of the area’s “human kids”! We'd be happy to arrange pick up and drop off services right at your school!

Offering services such as Dog Daycare, Pet Grooming, Obedience Training and Transportation Services via The Pet Taxi, The Good Dog Spot truly is the place to be for good dogs in Western Massachusetts! Our staff are all certified in Pet 1st Aid and CPR through the American Red Cross and are also Certified Pet Care Technicians through ABKA, the national trade association for the Pet Care industry.

Did you know that Dog Daycare helps reinforce appropriate interactions with humans and other dogs? It also can help in dealing with dog who are shy or suffer from separation anxiety. Daycare benefits owners by offering a solution to help exercise dogs, strengthen commands in an off leash setting and help curb destructive chewing due to boredom and loneliness.

For the month of September, we will be offering FREE daycare evaluations to all teachers and school staff. If you would like copies of the flyer pictured above to pass out at your school or if there is some way we can assist you, please contact us at (413) 534-1333. Also, feel free to visit our website at www.gooddogspot.net and remember, It’s always a great day at The Good Dog Spot!
