Small Dog Boarding Tomball TX

A Place Made Just for Small Dogs

At Muddy’s Buddies, we believe smaller pups deserve a space built exactly for them, no overwhelming play groups. Just the right-sized friends and the right amount of love!

Size-appropriate play groups — smaller dogs thrive when playing with dogs their own size, reducing stress and injury risk.

More personalized attention — our staff-to-dog ratios mean every pup gets noticed, nurtured, and spoiled.

Safer environment — purpose-built for petite pups. Smaller spaces, gentler energy, and zero intimidation.

Less stress, more fun — small dogs often get anxious around large breeds. Here, everyone is their size.

We welcome dogs 50 lbs & under only. Because good things really do come in small packages.

Meet Muddy, The Pup Who Started It All

Behind every great dog daycare is a dog who deserved better. For us, that dog is Muddy, our Blue Tri Merle French Bulldog mascot and the heart of everything we do.

Muddy taught us resilience, joy, and that small dogs deserve the very best. This business is his legacy, and every pup who walks through our door is part of his pack.

We welcome dogs 50 lbs & under only. We built Muddy's Buddies out of pure love for small dogs, inspired by Muddy himself. He showed us that little dogs have the biggest hearts, and they deserve a space where they're celebrated for exactly who they are.
