I highly recommend Happy Hound K9 Social Club. Great people who love dogs and a great home setting for our Rosie. First time we’ve ever left her and she loved it. So nice to have that personal touch and not have her spend the majority of time in a cage or penned in area for hours. She was well taken care of and loved like she was their own!! Thank you Bryan and Bridget. We’ll be using your service every time!!

I have a dog with heavy anxiety so finding a place for him is tough. I need to look no longer—Happy Hound was incredible. They were both attentive and knowledgeable about dogs and really cared about their wellbeing. The 2 acre dog park was AMAZING. My dogs didn’t want to come home. I highly recommend them!

We have been using Happy Hound K9 Social Club for 2 months now and I can’t say enough positive comments as to how happy were are to give our one year old poodle such an awesome experience. Brian and Bridget both have a great rapport with all the pups. The convenience of door to door pick up and drop off is exceptional. The beautiful farm, large well groomed fenced in areas with a huge sandbox and nature made agility course make this a one of a kind daycare facility. I love seeing the videos on Instagram each day that my dog attends and I’m always seeing Brian present and interacting and Bridget’s excellent video and picture taking skills at work. My high energy poodle pup comes home exhausted. It is so good for her and I feel good about her having an outdoor natural experience. Thank you Brian and Bridget for bringing this extraordinary opportunity to the Boonsboro area.

By far the nicest grounds my dog has been to! She had an absolute blast playing with the other dogs. They have a gigantic field to explore; an all natural log & stump agility course; a beach sand area to dig in; and shaded rest areas. The property is situated in a tranquil forest with beautiful mountain views. If I were a dog, this is where I would want to hang out. Treat your dog to some time here!

Our Stella loves the club! She’s an energetic husky and gets all the running and exercise she wants. Bryan and Bridget are amazing! We were so fortunate to find them after we moved here to VA! They are very flexible with scheduling, even able to take our pup on short notice. And we know she is getting fantastic care and lots of pets. We get photos and videos while she is there and she is always having a wonderful time, or exhausted and sleeping soundly, resting up for the next day. We are clients for life. Thanks so much Bryan and Bridget.

This was our first time using Happy Hound K9 Social Club and we were extremely pleased! The fenced in area for our boxer to run around in was so big it seemed almost free range! She was able to socialize with other dogs and was loved on by the owners like she was their own! Would highly recommend this place to anyone that doesn’t want their dog to feel cooped up or left behind when their families are on vacation or at work!

Happy Hound K9 Social Club is one of the best boarding places I’ve used for my dogs. We are very particular who watches our pups. Our pups loved them and when we went to pick them up they were so tired which I LOVED!! 😂 They also kept us updated everyday with how are pups were doing and even sent some photos! They were also very flexible when we could drop and pickup our pups which was very helpful for us! I would recommend Happy Hound K9 Social Club to anyone who needs to board their dogs!

Happy Hound is an incredible addition to the Lynchburg area! We started sending our two pups to daycare there two days a week in September and they love it! Depending on your location they provide pickup and drop off which is so convenient. Our dogs get so excited when they see the van pull up and can't wait to jump in! They come home happy and tired. Bryan and Bridget are so kind and sweet to our dogs. He has a special gift reading the pack dynamics and ensuring safe play. We've also boarded with them. They were super flexible and I loved knowing that the dogs were not left alone overnight or crated. I highly recommend them and am thrilled to have found this gem of a place!

This place is a dog oasis! Bryan and Bridget are amazing with caring for and training dogs, I trust them 100%. The 2 acre dog park is the perfect place to get our hound exercise and socialization. I would highly recommend Happy Hound K9 Social Club!

Annie had an absolutely amazing experience being boarded here! She got to maintain a very active lifestyle instead of being shut in a kennel. She enjoyed playing with all the other dogs on daycare days and it was great to get so many pictures and videos as updates

A Happy Place for Fur Babies!
I was nervous about boarding my Yorkie, Oliver, with other dogs...one, because he hasn't been around other dogs, and two, because he's a little guy. Bryan had me bring him over a couple weeks prior, to "meet" a couple of dogs and take a test run around the place. Oliver LOVED it! He was running around playing and not the least bit intimidated! He was having a blast! Bryan and Bridget are a wonderful, kind couple. Very knowledgeable, and more important to me, truly care about the well-being of all the dogs. They open their home to the dogs so they all feel safe, secure, and comfortable...not locked in a cage or a box. Their beautiful property is all fenced and the dogs are free to run and play, supervised, of course. I missed my boy while I was out of town on business, but never once worried about his safety or happiness! They sent me pics of Oliver and videos of him playing with the others. I will never board my dog anywhere else! After this wonderful experience, I will not put off vacation plans, as I have in the past, because I Know Oliver loved being there, was being loved, and was under the best possible care I could have ever hoped for! Thank you Bryan and Bridgett for all of your kindness! Oliver sends his love too! He'll be back soon!
My Best,

We are so fortunate that Bryan and Bridget have come to Big Island to offer a first rate doggie haven! Whether boarding or coming for a play day your dog will be well cared for. And, your pup will come home tired! Bryan gets out in the 2 acre fenced field to guide play as needed. Then the pack will move up into the smaller yard or the house for rest and toys. Running and play back at the field finishes off their day. To top it off they pick up and return your dog to the Boonsboro area. Bryan is great with the dogs—he is definitely the pack leader—and I always accuse him of getting more kisses from Lulu than I do! Lulu is beginning to learn the T/Th schedule for play days—she is at every window watching for Bryan and the dogmobile! We are so grateful that Bryan and Bridget have come to our area to provide such fun and safe times for our dogs.
Happy Hounds is a winner!

Happy Hounds K9 Social Club is the best dog care service I’ve ever used in the 25 years I’ve had dogs! Daisy has attended Happy Hounds Day Care twice a week for two months. Daisy is a Lab rescue who came to live with me at age one last January. She was quite skittish and fearful. While she did make some improvements she still displayed an underlying anxiety. Since going to Happy Hounds she is noticeably more relaxed and playful there and at home. Bryon and Bridget keep the dogs busy and engaged in play. They both have keen intuition and understanding of dog language, personality and behaviors. Daisy is definitely becoming more social when interacting with people and dogs. She gets lots of exercise and plenty of time outdoors in the Happy Hounds beautifully fenced acreage. I recommend that anyone with needs for dog daycare check it out!

Incredible daycare for dogs in a pristine environment designed for dog socialization with endless options for open-space running and exercise! Transportation is a wonderful perk of Happy Hounds K-9 social club, and the owners are exceptional experienced Pack Leaders providing safety and supervision of all participants. My dog is developing much needed social skills interacting with other dogs, supervised by the warm care of these owners. Once he realizes that the day is a Daycare Day he howls with excitement on the way to meet Bryan and Bridget at their van! They often share pics and videos of the dogs interactions which provide a sense of connection!

They kept my really shy and anxious dog for a week and did an amazing job with him. They were very patient and caring with Lux. They sent me pics and updates everyday, which put my mind at ease. Lux had an amazing time and we will be using them again!!! I give them 5 plus stars!!!

Bryan Reisz has cared for my family's dogs since I was a teenager, nearly two decades ago. He helped raise and train my parent's dogs and my own dog. I know my dog is safe in Byan's care and under his tutelage. And I hope my dogs can one day visit the Happy Hound K9 Social Club. Washington, DC will miss Bryan but Lynchurg is lucky to have him.

Bryan is our family's revered dog whisperer. Over the years, we have entrusted Bryan with the care and companionship of our beloved English Cream, Bello, relying on him for walks and boarding. In our dog's limited vocabulary of around 10 words, "Bryan" holds a place of prominence alongside essentials like "treat" and "walk." This connection is nothing short of a deep bond. It's remarkable how Bryan possesses an extraordinary rapport with dogs; his demeanor is marked by gentleness, patience, and playfulness. His authentic passion for canines shines through brilliantly. We wholeheartedly recommend Bryan and his Happy Hound K9 Social Club!

Bryan Reisz is remarkable. For about a decade, he cared for our two golden retrievers, one young and rambunctious, the other sweet, mellow and a bit older. Bryan was perfect for both. Long romps, swimming, attention to any issues that came up. Lots of exercise, lots of fun. Not sure who was happier to see Bryan come by -- the dogs or us. He truly is a dog whisperer. Our dogs would stay with him when we left town and we knew they were having a ball. He is caring, knowledgeable and is as good as it gets in the dog world. We had complete confidence in Bryan to ensure our dogs were well cared for and safe. We know that others will have the same great experience.

For those of you lucky enough to entrust your dog to Bryan Reisz, there is a lab named Duncan ("big chocolate" to Bryan) who is very envious. Bryan came into our lives about 6 years ago when Duncan's human litter mates left for college and he was lonely. Bryan rapidly became a member of the family, particularly for Duncan for would sit by the mudroom door when his internal clock told him it was "romping time". Bryan's concern for Duncan's health and well being was meticulous and we came to depend on his advice for "all things Duncan". Although we miss him (a lot!), we are very grateful for the gift he gave us (a happy, safe and content dog - not trivial with Duncan who is subject to "dietary indiscretion") and we are delighted that more dogs will be able to share that experience. If you have any questions, Bryan has my contact information and I am happy to share our experience, which was nothing but exceptional.

Bryan Reisz has cared for three generations of dogs for us over the past 20+ years. We have the greatest confidence in him and appreciation for all he has done for our dogs and for us. He has taken my dogs for fantastic romps where they can run, play, and be dogs, with a few other dogs so they are well-socialized. He is aware of every dog in his care, and reports to me any possible issues or concerns. Regardless of weather, or other factors, Bryan shows up on time. I know my dog is safe with him, and he is as kind and caring of the dogs as he is responsible. I have the same level of confidence in Bryan when my dogs have boarded with him...they are safe, happy, and well-cared for. We've gone away with no doubts or concerns, a great feeling! He is as good as it gets in dog care. In fact, when we got our most recent dog, I checked with Bryan to be sure he'd be able to care for him. I am more than happy to answer any questions or concerns.

Please consider this note my warm recommendation of Bryan Reisz for all dog-related services. I have known Bryan for approximately fifteen years. He has exercised and cared for two of my pups. While the same breed, my dogs had incredibly different personalities: one sweet, shy and anxious, the other loose, energetic and bold. Both loved Bryan. He not only gave the exercise and attention the dogs needed; he generously offered me warm advice and training guidance. Bryan has been a sunny part of my life. I am sorry to see him go and excited about his new endeavors. Washington DC's loss is Virginia's gain.
