About Us

We're a club crafted for dogs and their humans. Enjoy coffee, wine, local eats, rotating beer on tap, high-speed WiFi, and more. We have a welcoming on-leash bar environment with roll-up garage doors leading to shaded patio space where you can socialize. From here, guests will find rotating food truck options and, of course, a huge off-leash play space! We’re the only dog park that gets better after dark. Our members-only events are designed around play—pups and their humans—so guests can enjoy the best of our Clubhound experience. We are open seven days a week from 8 am -10 pm.
