Wow Take A Bow Boarding & Grooming
Quality Canine Boarding, Day-Care, Training and Grooming
Wow Take A Bow offers quality canine services for customers in Central and Western Massachusetts. Our philosophy is simple: dogs are treated like valued family members, nothing less will do.
All for fun -- one run for all!
While here, your pup will enjoy playing, relaxing, and learning in the company of other friendly dogs. If your dog is in need of some TLC, they can receive a full-blown grooming to the style of your choice. We even offer training services for dogs in our care, from basic manners to helpful tasks and fun tricks.
Service Dog Links
This Wow Take a Bow facility in Warren also houses a service dog training program, American Poodles At Work. We raise and train these Standard Poodles to help people with mobility impairments, often people who use a wheelchair or scooter. Our Poodles retrieve dropped or needed items, open doors, operate light switches, and more!
You may see our dogs around town and at events -- you can recognize them by their purple capes. Don't be shy to say hi, but ask before petting or talking to the dog... they are working and not supposed to greet strangers until their owner gives permission. Sometimes the owner will not have the time to stop and talk, but most enjoy the conversation when they aren't in a hurry.
We are always looking for volunteers for many different jobs from petting and socializing puppies, to taking a dog in-training out for the weekend, to helping mail fliers.
