High-end boutiques, al fresco dining, yoga classes – just another typical day for many a pup in the North Bay. Hard to believe, but it’s true: the Bay Area has an amazing variety of offerings for our four-legged friends.
Here in Marin, Fifi can find a pet wash, top-quality accessories, toys, and supplies at Woodlands Pet Food and Treats located in Mill Valley and Greenbrae. Family-owned and operated, Woodlands also offers classes in first aid and CPR for your pet.
Marin is also home to a new policy that allows Fifi to join her owner at restaurants with outdoor dining areas – as long as the area can be accessed from the outside. (No showing off her newest crystal collar while trotting through the dining room.)
For a 
change of pace from the routine run at the local dog park, Fifi can try a doggie yoga class, where, no surprise, one of the key movements is downward dog.
To keep her mind challenged, Fifi can attend any number of classes offered by the Marin and Sonoma Humane Societies. Classes such as: Woofs & Whinnies, Agility Distance Handling, and a Flyball Class. They even have a disaster preparedness class for dogs.
And at the end of the day, when she just wants to unwind with friends, Fifi can log on to Dogbook.
Fancy boutiques, fine dining, doggie day cares, dog walkers, dog parks, dog classes – it seems there’s no end to the services the North Bay offers our four-legged friends.
