Would your dog recommend you?
Owning a dog doesn’t factor into your qualification for working at The Watering Bowl. But it certainly doesn’t hurt. And it automatically adds a perk of employment—you can bring your buddy to work with you. Beyond that, there are several additional benefits to working for a 2021 Top Workplace and an A List Winner for…
Read MoreWelcome Back Q&A
We can’t wait to welcome you back inside our locations. With guidelines evolving daily, it can be confusing to know what to do when and where. Do you keep the mask? Toss it in the trash? Wash it in vinegar and air dry it? Well, we may not have all the answers, but we did…
Read MoreIT’S SPRING BREAK SOMEWHERE
And for your dog, that somewhere just so happens to be the TWB location of your preference. We realize that everyone is easing back into the idea of travel. Just know that when you decide to pack up and head to a beach or a mountain or local hotel with a swimming pool for what…
Read MoreYOU’VE BEEN GOOD
It’s been a little bit. Maybe you’ve been keeping up with your dog’s training regimen. Perhaps you’ve even utilized our Stay & Train service when dropping off for daycare. But we are pleased to announce that we are re-instating in-person training starting whenever you read this blog post. Perhaps you’ve let a few things slide…
Read MoreSALUTING K9 VETERANS DAY
Dogs are heroic in our everyday lives. But they’re also heroes in military service. March 13 is recognized nationally as National K9 Veterans Day because on that date in 1942, the US Army began training for its new War Dog Program, also known as the “K-9 Corps.” But in case you’re looking for some K9…
Read MoreTURNING OUR WISDOM UP TO 11
This month, The Watering Bowl celebrates its 11th anniversary. And frankly, we find it hard to believe it’s only been that long. Because these last 12 months have felt more like 11 years. Of course, it’s safe to say we aged a bit more than usual, and maybe even did a decade’s worth of stress…
Read MoreALL THE FUN IN HALF THE TIME
We’re not totally out of the woods yet. But the year ahead is looking brighter than it did 12 months ago. And for many of us, that means tiptoeing back into a routine that takes us outside of home for *audible gasp* hours at a time. Meanwhile, our constant footside companions wonder what to make…
Read MoreWARD OFF THE DOGGY TOOTH FAIRY
We’re almost midway through February. The first signs of Spring are on the horizon. It seems like the major holidays are either behind us or far ahead of us. That is, until you jolt awake in the middle of the night, when you remember the one February holiday you almost forgot to celebrate: National Pet…
Read MoreYOU + TOYS = BEER
Good news! Christmas is coming early. Of course, some might say it’s coming late, but that’s just not how we see things. Why so much philosophy in a blog post, you ask? Because it’s the first ever Pet Toy Drive for the APA—an idea so cute, so simple, that it really needs no further explanation.…
Read MoreHOW DO YOU HANGOVER?
At The Watering Bowl, we live by a set of principles, or dogma. And chief among those beliefs is to love, honor and obey your hangovers. And if you already broke out the dictionary for “dogma,” then you can close it for “hangovers.” Because that term means something a little different around here. To us,…
