FAQ #16
Q: How are the new dog introductions handled?
A: During your dog's behavior assessment we will determine the rate at which your dog is ready for group play. Only when we and the dog are comfortable will group play begin.













Gus and Leroy are a Puggle and Pug duo that have been coming to Central Bark for quite a while. The puggle Gus was an only child for a couple of years until his Mom and Dad adopted his brother Leroy, a black Pug. Gussie did not seem to mind a bit; in fact he was so happy to have a constant playmate in his brother. While here at Central Bark, the two boys play in different groups. Gus prefers the rough and tumble more rambunctious group while his brother Leroy could not be bothered with such shenanigans. That isn’t to say that he doesn’t like to play, but he likes to play at a different pace then his brother, Gus. No matter where or how they play though, at the end of the day they go home together, best friends forever! Congratulations Gus and Leroy, our March boys.
