Happy Hounds News

January/February 2015

As the New Year begins, I want to reflect on the last 365 days here at Happy Hounds. This is where I want to give BIG thanks out to everyone for a great 2014. First and foremost, I am so grateful for the clients and their furry children. By sharing your pups, you've given us an immeasurable amount of love, loyalty, laughs and of course, slobber. Yes, we even love the slobber. The awesome and talented staff play a huge role in the success of Happy Hounds. After all, without them, the pups would have no one to keep warm at night; no one to retrieve the ball for; no one to give wet kisses to or cover with fur. And most importantly, no one to listen to. Let's be real, dogs LOVE hearing how soft, fluffy and cute they are. Many thanks to each and every member of the Happy Hounds team. A great big thank you to Barker's Pet Salon. They are always "on top of it" when it comes to accommodating our grooming needs. Lastly, thank you Ann Arbor Canine Coach and Valerie Wells for providing Happy Hounds with delicious monthly birthday and specialty cakes, in addition to our great dog training classes for the pups. With all of this support, I am thrilled to start another 365 days of fun and adventure. We have so much fun planned for all the pups!!!

Sincerely,

Christine Perez
Happy Hounds

Pin-Ups

Harvey

This adorable little squish is Harvey, an English Lab. Harvey joined the Happy Hounds family in January of 2012 at 8 months of age. He is full of energy! When this boy isn't wrestling with his best friend, Charlie, another English Lab, he's found charging around the basement with his favorite giant plastic ball.

Georgia

This fun loving pooch is Georgia, a Golden Retriever. Georgia joined the Happy Hounds family in November of 2013 at the age of 7 months. She is a wild child! Georgia is always on the go, whether it's wrestling with any and everyone or indulging in a never ending game of fetch. She must go home absolutely exhausted! Georgia never slows down!

Marley

This handsome man is Marley, a border collie mix. Marley joined the Happy Hounds family in November of 2008 at just over a year of age. He is quite the sophisticated young lad. Marley definitely enjoys the finer things in life, like sun bathing on the deck. He's often the first to see an approaching squirrel and, of course, chase it off.

Mitzi

This pretty lady is Mitzi, a Lab mix. Mitzi joined the Happy Hounds family in December 2009 at the tender age of 5 months. What a sweetheart she is! Mitzi just loves life.. and everyone in it! She's usually found giving kisses to the other pups or snuggling up to her big brother, Marley.

Friendly Reminders

When boarding your dog with us, we MUST have your dogs updated vaccination records 48 hours BEFORE he/she begin boarding. If you are traveling abroad, we also will need a local contact in case of emergency.

Your dog MUST have a snap "quick release" collar for day care and boarding, with no tags attached. You can keep the snap collar in your Happy Hounds backpack. If this is not his/her daily collar we will change it out when your dogs arrive at Happy Hounds. This is important for your dogs safety.
