No Bones About It: Red Dog Pet Resort & Spa is a 4-Paw Experience
Imagine spending the day frolicking with your besties, relishing in all the things you love most, like digging for hidden treasures, swimming in an indoor aquatics center, or basking in the sun. Your day of fun might include a visit to the spa, where professionals take care of your every need from washing and styling your hair to manicuring your nails. At the end of the day, you can retire to your guest suite with a cozy fleece lined bed, turn down service, TV, and outdoor patio. Did I mention that you are imagining a day in the life of your pet? And that this is happening while you are at work or out of town?

That’s the reality if your pet is a Red Dog Pet Resort & Spa client. Whether your fur baby is a dog or cat, Red Dog provides care for your pet beyond his or her wildest, rabbit-chasing dreams. From full and half-day doggie daycare options to overnight boarding with 24/7 supervision by a caring staff; from swimming in the indoor pool, to professional dog training services, Red Dog has your pet’s needs (and desires) covered. Their 27,000 sq. foot indoor/outdoor facility plus an on-site dog park, allows dogs to socialize, exercise (even go for a swim in some locations!) and expend their excess energy so that when they come home, they are ready to curl up and take a nap. Feline friends spend their time away from home in a suite, condo or even townhouse with options for personal play, meow hour, laser tag and more.

No doubt, a Red Dog spa client is one lucky dog! Beyond just a bath and brush out, owners can indulge their dogs with add ons, such as a massaging bubble bath, a blueberry facial (to remove stains), pawdicures or can even have feather extensions added in their hair.
Owner Eric Schneider’s father began Red Dog Pet Resort and Spa in Cincinnati in 2007 (at Red Bank Road & Madison Road) after they were having difficulty finding quality boarding and day care options for their golden retrievers. “We had to drive 30 minutes to a place where we felt comfortable leaving our dogs,” Eric said. “We decided that there was a need for an affordable and comfortable retreat for pets that would also provide peace of mind for their owners.”

The Schneiders have since added four locations: Boston, Northshore, Mass., Mason, Ohio, and Atlanta, and are opening a sixth location in Springdale, Ohio in the summer of 2020. As of 2019, the Red Dog team has cared for more than one million pets.
The staff will take dogs on leash walks or open play in their fenced dog park.
Tours of the facility are available anytime. Call 513-229-3647 to set up an appointment or go to www.reddogpetresort.com to learn more.
