What is Play Wash Pint?

This truly unique park is a place where dogs and dog-lovers can come together to play and commune in a clean & safe space. To ensure a fun time for all, dogs are required to have up to date Rabies, DHPP, & Bordetella vaccines, as well as be spayed or neutered after one year of age. Our expertly trained Ruff Rangers monitor activity in the yard to help facilitate safe, healthy, and fun play for the pups and people. Pet grade turf ensures that no matter the weather or season your pup stays clean. Our custom dog fountain, misters, fans, heaters, and covered areas in the park make all seasons comfy for our human guests too. Play Wash Pint has a groomer quality wash station that can be booked by the half hour to make sure any dirty dogs come home cuddle ready.
