Big Updates at The Friendly Bark: Permits Approved, Construction Nearly Complete & Coffee Coming Soon

We’re thrilled to share some long-awaited news — The Friendly Bark indoor dog park has officially received its permits, which means we’re now entering the final phase of construction at our indoor dog park.

This is a huge milestone and brings us one big step closer to welcoming our community inside.

Final Phase of Construction Is Underway

With permits approved, our remaining build-out is officially moving forward. This final phase of construction for our indoor dog park includes completing our beverage service area, lounge spaces, and finishing details throughout the facility.

Once construction is complete, we’ll be ready to open our doors and announce the official Grand Opening of The Friendly Bark. As soon as we have final construction completion dates, we’ll share them across our website and social media.

Our goal has always been to create a safe, climate-controlled indoor dog park where dogs can socialize and owners can relax — and we’re almost there.

Indoor Dog Park With Coffee & Beverage Options Coming Soon

The Friendly Bark is more than just a dog park. When we open, guests can look forward to:

  • A supervised indoor dog play space
  • A cozy lounge for pet parents
  • Coffee and other beverage options for dog parents
  • Community events, meetups, and private rentals

We can’t wait for you to experience it all.

Coffee and non-alcoholic beverages will be available for purchase once construction is complete.
