Every dog has its day, especially after a day at MUTTS Canine Cantina.

Led by twin sister duo Lisa Ladewig and Laura Ladewig Landers (and their furry friends), the new concept offers something for both dogs and their owners: an off-leash park for pups, plus a bar and grill for the humans.

This will be MUTTS Canine Cantina’s first-ever Austin location.

The new doggy haven, located at 9825 N. Lake Creek Pkwy., is slated to open to the public on Thursday, August 10. Here’s what’s in store:

  • A 1.6-acre park
  • A K9 splash pad
  • Automated dog bath stations
  • Bark Rangers™ to keep the park clean and safe
  • Fire pits and private cabanas, which offer bottle service
  • Dog treats like PUPsicles and doggy hot dogs

Humans can enjoy the facility for free. Day passes providing access to the full dog facilities run $10 on weekdays, $15 on weekends, and guests can opt in to receive a discounted annual rate of $250 during opening weekend.
