With bad weather no longer an excuse to skip dog exercise, indoor dog parks have become a popular solution. In Missouri, one such facility stands out - CITYDOGs in Kansas City offers 10,000 square feet of indoor space and 40,000 square feet of outdoor space for dogs to play off-leash, along with amenities like grooming, training, daycare, and boarding services.

Why it matters

As more people own dogs, the demand for convenient and safe places for dogs to exercise and socialize has grown, especially in urban areas where outdoor space can be limited. CITYDogs is meeting this need in Kansas City, providing a year-round solution for dog owners.

The details

Wedged into a spot on the south side of downtown Kansas City, CITYDOGs makes the most of its 10,000 square feet of indoor space and 40,000 square feet of outdoor off-leash play space. They also have a special small dog park for pups under 25 pounds. Owners can schedule play time, and the facility offers memberships as well as grooming, training, daycare, and boarding services. CITYDogs regularly hosts local food trucks and has beer on tap, making it a community gathering spot.

• CITYDogs opened its Kansas City location several years ago.
• The facility is currently in the process of expanding to other states.

What’s next

CITYDogs plans to open additional locations in other states in the coming years to meet the growing demand for indoor dog exercise facilities.
