Opening Day at Petco Park kicked off today and you know that means we’re in route to the ballparks annual Dog Days of Summer. Nobody in baseball hosts top of the line hospitality for our furry friends better than Petco Park and the San Diego Padres organization, likely because they pride themselves being owned and sponsored by the greatest per brand in the nation, Petco! For over 10 years Petco Park has gone above and beyond, out doing themselves every year with their annual Dog Days of Summer. The festivities which include a pet parade around the baseball field featuring fans and their dogs followed by contests and awesome grab bag giveaways from Fido’s favorite brands, makes Petco Park Dog Days of Summer makes this themed ball game one of San Diego’s favorite. Being that Petco Park is truly compassionate about pets and understands the significance of the many thousands of San Diegan’s who take their dogs everywhere, it was no surprise to hear that Petco Park a group who always sets out to accommodate it’s community launched the BarkYard Doggie Box Suites. These suites revealed in the summer of 2016 are located on the outfield terrace of the stadium include comfortable seating and excellent views of the game tailored for up to four people and two dogs. I was invited by Petco Park to experience first hand the perks of this pawesome pet friendly terrace. Like every Dog Days Of Summer, I headed down to the park with the FOX Sports San Diego camera crew to catch the excitement for SDLive. It was extra special because I got to bring my dog, my girlfriend Nadia and her dog Spike for some Dog Days Of Summer festivities followed by watching the game from the new doggie box suites at BarkYard. Seeing Jack in the pet parade, going ballistic over his goodie giveaways, and mingling with all the other dogs at the game that day, followed by the fun he was having inside the BarkYard doggie suites made for a Dog Days Of Summer I will never forget! I hope you all will consider attending Petco Parks Dog Days of Summer June 29th when the Padres play the Atlanta Braves. If you cannot make that, be sure to book a date with your fellow proud puppy parents and get yourselves a game day suite in the Petco BarkYard!

I want to take this time thank Petco Park for always looking out for our pets! These doggie suites are an absolute hit, and I’m so grateful to live in a city with a over the top- pet friendly ballpark that understands what pets mean to us.  As San Diegan pet parents, we truly have the advantage having Petco Park as our teams ballpark. These doggie suites are available at every home game so if you’re looking to do something fun with friends that includes your furry friend, BarkYard is the place to be.
