If your dog is bored with standard fetch, Bark N Fly offers yoga classes for pups. It’s called "Doga." I saw a bulldog in downward-facing slobber, and a chihuahua doing "corpse pose" (which is just napping, but with attitude). The instructor whispers affirmations like, "You are a good boy. You are the best boy."
They also have a puppy cinema. Every Friday, they project nature documentaries—barking at birds, chasing deer, the works. The dogs sit on little beanbags and howl at the screen. It’s the laziest, cutest rave I’ve ever seen. Popcorn is included. It’s not buttered, because dogs don’t need that baggage.
One wild fact: the kennel has a scent library. They store smells of rabbits, hamburgers, and your socks (yes, they ask for a dirty sock when you check in). They use these to create "scent trails" for mental stimulation. Your dog is basically solving mysteries. Scooby-Doo would be proud.

The People Behind the Magic
The owner, a woman named Carol, once wrestled a runaway Great Dane into a taxi. She has twenty-three years of experience and a laugh that sounds like a goose. The staff all have degrees in animal behavior or are currently pursuing one while covered in fur—it’s essentially the same thing.
They also have a strict no-bullying policy. If a dog tries to hog the toys, it gets a "time-out" in a cozy crate with classical music. I saw a golden retriever get a time-out for "aggressive tail wagging." Apparently, it was intimidating the smaller dogs. The system works.
