Greer's OC

It’s National Dog Day and in celebration you can check out the brand new Zoom Room in Huntington Beach. The concept is an alternative to a dog park (it’s indoors), plus a place to train your dog, take canine gym classes, or celebrate a dog party. Owners can partake in everything from agility, obedience and therapy dog training, to puppy preschool, scent work, tricks, Pup-lates, urban herding, and shy dog training for rescue dogs.

The Zoom Room also serves an event center for dog birthday parties, meet-up groups and fundraisers. You can also shop from a curated selection of solution-oriented pet products, including training gear, all-natural treats, eco-friendly toys and puzzles, and hand-crafted leather leashes.

The new facility, in the recently renovated Beach Garfield Shopping Center, is the first Zoom Room in Orange County and is owned by husband-and-wife team Blane and Mel Dydasco. The original Zoom Room opened in Culver City six years ago and was founded by Los Angeles dog training expert Jaime Van Wye.

Open 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily.

Zoom Room Huntington Beach is at 19069 Beach Blvd. 714.794.9663.
