A unique, paws-itively fun experience at The Local Bark Park at Animal Den Pet Resort! This members-only dog playground is opening its gates for two exclusive 1.5 hour sessions to support Sacramento Stand Down, a local nonprofit that provides venues, services, and a supportive community to help get homeless veterans and their families (including their four-legged companions) off the streets.

5:15- 6:45 pm (Swim Session 1)
7:00 – 8:30pm (Swim Session 2)

Your furry friend(s) will have a blast at Animal Den’s private, fully enclosesd and spacious park featuring:

• A dog-friendly in-ground pool – because your pup deserves to cool off in style!
• A climbing and play structure for adventurous pups of all sizes.
• Plenty of room (3 play yards!) to run and socialize with other dogs in a safe, supervised environment.
• Toys to keep tails wagging and paws moving!
• For the humans, enjoy refreshing craft beers from local breweries, along with a variety of tasty snacks and non-alcoholic beverages to keep you energized while you watch your pup play.
• Animal Den’s friendly bark-tenders will be on hand to ensure your dog’s playtime is safe, fun, and worry-free.
