What You’ll Do

Spend an hour inside a cozy Lakeview lounge surrounded by affectionate Italian Greyhounds who are free to curl up beside you, climb into your lap, and interact naturally with your group.

• Warm Welcome & Introduction Your professional host greets the group, explains how the experience works, and helps both guests and dogs feel comfortable from the very beginning.

• Meet the Greyhound Pack Around 8 to 10 socialized Italian Greyhounds roam freely throughout the lounge, creating relaxed and genuine interactions with guests throughout the session.

• Relax & Cuddle Freely Spend the hour petting, cuddling, playing with, and simply enjoying the dogs at your own pace in a calm, low-pressure environment.

• Printed Group Photo Included Each group receives a printed keepsake photo to take home and remember the experience.

• Designed for Real Relaxation The experience is intentionally built around the calming effects of spending time with animals, helping guests unplug, slow down, and genuinely enjoy the moment.

CuddlePups is carefully structured so the dogs enjoy the experience too, with scheduled rest breaks, enrichment time, and limited session sizes built into every day.
