She’s one of our behavioral training apprentices and has been bringing a calmly joyful energy to every day. Thank you Isabel! You’re amazing and we love having you here!

We’ll work through varying slow flow easy yoga positions that can incorporate your dog, if you and they choose. We’re all about consent, so your dog is not required to partake, but we would love to give you guidance on how to incorporate them into your practices.
Class size is limited so sign up asap! This event frequently fills up. It’s a great opportunity to enjoy something unique with someone visiting from out of town, for those who are new to the area, and for those just looking to do something outside of the normal boring routines.
OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. 21yrs+ for humans. This is an easy beginners yoga class, so no experience necessary. It is not hot yoga because that wouldn’t be kind to the dogs. Friendly quiet playing dogs of all ages & sizes welcome. $10 per person. Single serving snacks and bottled water included in the entry fee.
Dog of the Month LUCI
Luci is a bowling ball of enthusiasm and never ending love. She’s a Pickles ‘O.G.’ and has been coming to us for many years. We’ve watched her grow from a small potato to a russet and we can’t wait to see her grow even more. You’ll often see Luci in videos enjoying a belly rub or chasing a toy with friends. She is a social butterfly
Employee of the month KATY
Many of you haven’t met Katy yet and for that we are sorry. She is a gem of a person and instantly your dog’s best friend. Katy has worked in the holistic health field for many years and still does, when she isn’t cuddling the dogs here at Pickles in Kirkland. Katy makes our team better in more ways that we can list. Her care for people and dogs, detail oriented personality, and kind spirit make us a stronger team and we couldn’t imagine the Playlands without her. Thank you Katy!
National Rescue Dog & Watermelon Day ~ All Locations @ daycare
RESCUE DOGS: Do you have a rescue dog? Bring proof of adoption and receive 2 free treats and/or services from the treat and service buffet! This buffet will be packed with treats and coupons for services! You do not need to use the service this day and you can gift them to others if you want! Thank you for helping to save your dog’s life and freeing a space in rescue to help them save a new dog! You’re a special breed of human and we love you for that.
Proof of ‘adoption’ must be through an actual dog rescue, not be through craigslist, a breeder, a friend, etc. Buying a puppy or dog from a breeder just because they’re a bad breeder doesn’t count. Ha.
WATERMELON LOVERS: We’ll have watermelon pup cups, parfaits, and fun photos of your dog to take home! You too can choose your dog’s adventure from the treat and services buffet, in the Pickles lobby! Each treat and service option is $5.
