About

Pup Social is a members-only dog club on North Ashland Avenue in Chicago. The business describes itself as Chicago's premier canine club and describes its off-leash park as the city's safest dog park. Membership fees apply to pups, and parents can visit for free.

Pup School is the structured daycare side of the club, with off-leash play, agility time, rest and lunch breaks, and help with training, plus an optional add-on of enrichment activities and training. A single-day drop-off is listed at $46, multi-day packs of 10, 20, or 30 days start at $410 and are valid for 60 days, and the Unlimited+ plan is $750 per month with unlimited monthly drop-offs. Members receive 5 to 10 percent off daycare depending on their plan, and new Pup School families get a complimentary first day. Pup School runs Monday to Friday 7 AM to 7 PM, Saturday 9 AM to 5 PM, and Sunday 9 AM to 3 PM.

Dog training is available as private one-on-one sessions or small group classes, and the club also offers board and train and bootcamps. Members get 5 to 10 percent off single sessions and bootcamps, and booking a bootcamp package within 7 days of a first training session brings 15 percent off. Pet sitting, overnight boarding, and Canine Good Citizen certification are also listed.

The Spaw handles full-service dog grooming, including baths and blowouts, and the business says it uses premium, organic products. Exit bath add-ons are listed from $25 to $100 depending on the dog's weight. A coworking space lets members work while their dogs are nearby, indoor social lounges and an outdoor patio with a bar serve craft beer and cocktails, and The Barktique sells pet products and member merchandise. Private birthday pawties are planned by an in-house event planner, and the club hosts obedience classes, holiday pup-ups, member mixers, and RSVP-only Sunday Family Days before opening.

Membership is held by a primary holder who is at least 21 on the date it begins. Dogs need to reach four months of age before they can join or come in for a visit, and each one must pass a social and behavioral assessment. Vaccination records have to stay current for as long as the membership runs. Dogs aged eight months and up must be neutered or spayed. The club applies a restricted-breed policy with a short list of breeds. Dogs attending daycare need current rabies, distemper and bordetella vaccinations and a temperament evaluation. Tours include a first visit for the pup and a membership overview. The club runs an Adoption Support Initiative with local rescues and shelters for newly adopted dogs, and it offers corporate memberships for employers whose remote or hybrid staff are dog owners. The WAG'N Shuttle carries dogs for $9 per trip for 1 mile, rising to $21 for 5 miles, based on winter 2025 to 2026 rates. Weekend and holiday pickups are not offered.

Dog-friendly indoor social lounges and an outdoor patio with a bar set a relaxed, social setting.
