C&C PALS Associates
Capitol Canine Club was started as a place where dogs can come and socialize with other canines of similar play-style and temperament. They care about the safety of the dogs and have taken measures to ensure that the dogs not only have fun, but the people supervising the dogs make sure that they promote appropriate interaction among dogs and with humans.
