At XO PUPS, we’re all about wagging tails, happy hearts, and finding every pup their perfect forever home.
We love that you’re excited to meet our furry friends—but before you dive into snuggles and zoomies, let’s go over a few things to make sure everyone (especially the pups!) stays safe, happy, and healthy.
Puppies aren’t just adorable—they’re also delicate! They need structure, rest, and limited exposure to germs and stress. We’ve created some quick and easy policies to make your visit awesome for you and peaceful for them. 🐾
Appointments are highly recommended!
We’re not a petting zoo—we’re a puppy matchmaking service! Booking an appointment ensures we have time to help you meet the right pup and keeps our furry crew from getting overwhelmed.
Walk-ins are welcome (yay!) but puppy play may be limited based on availability.
We love little humans almost as much as we love little dogs! But for safety:
To keep our pups relaxed and happy:
Even the most energetic floof needs a break. Here’s when the pups rest:
💤 No playtime during these rest and feeding hours, please! They need their beauty sleep and belly fill-ups.
After 7 PM? Puppy bedtime begins. 🐾 No more playtime—just cozy cuddles in their crates.
Before you meet a pup, we’ll ask you to fill out a quick form. Why?
It helps us:
By signing, you also agree to let us keep a secure record of your basic ID and contact info. (We don’t share—scout’s honor. 🤝)
We know puppies are irresistible—but remember: This isn’t just playtime. It’s a serious step toward adoption.
We limit how and when puppies are brought out to ensure their health and well-being. We reserve the right to approve or deny play requests based on the needs of our pups at the time of your visit.
Our goal is to help you find your new best friend in the happiest, healthiest way possible. Thank you for being kind, respectful, and mindful as we guide you through the XO PUPS experience.
We’re here to help—so if you have questions or want to schedule your visit, give us a call at 703.350.4781.
We can’t wait to help you meet your perfect pup!
