Canine to Five's success in Detroit breeds Ferndale location

After seven successful years in Detroit's Midtown, Canine to Five has expanded to Ferndale, bringing its day care, cageless overnight boarding and play place to another part of metro Detroit.

Canine to Five Ferndale opens Jan. 28 at 2141 Hilton Road with 4,000 square feet of indoor play and sleep area for as many as 60 dogs coming for day care, or space for 40 dogs in overnight, cage-free boarding. Another 1,400 square feet of outdoor space is connected to the indoor area.

More than a business, Canine to Five is a community connection that brings together dog lovers who want to give their dogs a place to socialize.

“Canine to Five has grown to be more than just a daycare facility. We are a community center for dogs that holds play dates, educational seminars and other events. We want to make sure our new Ferndale location is a similar resource for our customers and community,” founder and owner Liz Blondy says.

Canine to Five is planning several special, grand opening events, including an open $5 per dog play date on Valentine's Day. The center will also offer special dog care courses such as animal first aid and other events.
