Friends of Wags
Tail Wagging Community Picks
Friends of Wag 4 Tails is a community initiative that showcases and supports local businesses!
WYCKOFF VETERINARY HOSPITAL
At Wag for Tails, we’re all about supporting local small businesses! That’s why we love Wyckoff Veterinary Hospital.
As a warm and welcoming family-owned business, they truly understand the special bond we share with our pets. Their caring team knows that pets are family, and they go above and beyond to provide compassionate, top-notch care.
What we really appreciate about Wyckoff is their personal touch. With a team of fellow animal lovers, they create a warm and welcoming environment for both pets and their owners.
We wholeheartedly recommend Wyckoff Veterinary Hospital because we trust them to take great care of your furry friends. Let’s support this fantastic local team together!
RBARI ANIMAL SHELTER
Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge, Inc. (RBARI), the leading no-kill animal shelter in Northern New Jersey, is dedicated to second chances by providing safe refuge and essential medical and behavioral care, along with new forever homes to New Jersey’s homeless and abused dogs and cats.
Focusing on animals with the greatest need, RBARI is especially committed to those often rejected, including seniors, urgent medical cases, and surrenders. RBARI regularly pulls from local animal control facilities, thus placing an emphasis on “local first”, allowing us to impact the rate of euthanasia as well as reduce the homeless population. This ensures RBARI helps those animals closest with nowhere else to turn.
RUFF TO FLUFF
A244 Rock Rd, Glen Rock
At Wag 4 Tails, we love supporting local businesses that care about dogs the way we do, and Ruff to Fluff is one we’re always happy to share with our clients. The salon is owned by Danny, and from the moment you walk in, you can feel how much thought and care goes into every dog they see.
What really stands out to us is the patience and kindness the team shows, whether it’s a pup’s very first grooming or a familiar face coming back again. They take their time, keep things calm, and make sure dogs feel comfortable throughout the visit — which usually means they head home looking great and feeling pretty proud of themselves, too. 🐶✨

GLEN ROCK DOG PARK
350 Doremus Ave, Glen Rock
Glen Rock Dog Park is a great low key spot for dogs who love to run around, sniff everything, and get some off leash time without the chaos of a super crowded park.
It has a relaxed neighborhood feel and is popular with local dog parents looking for an easy place to let their dogs play and socialize. A nice option if your pup prefers a calmer vibe or if you’re just looking to switch up your usual routine.
RIDGEWOOD COFFEE COMPANY
133 East Ridgewood Avenue, Ridgewood
Ridgewood Coffee Company is a go-to neighborhood spot for good coffee and an easygoing atmosphere. With dog-friendly outdoor seating, it’s a great place to stop after a walk or hang out with your pup while enjoying a cup of coffee.
It’s popular with local dog owners and offers a relaxed setting where dogs are welcome to hang alongside their humans. A simple, walkable option in the heart of Ridgewood that fits right into everyday routines with your dog.
SECOND CHANCE DOG TRAINING
Having a dog in your life should feel good most of the time. Still, there are moments when things feel confusing, frustrating, or just harder than expected. In those times, it helps to have a steady, experienced guide to talk things through.
We’ve been recommending Eileen Haley for many years. She’s a friend, someone I trust, and a resource I’m comfortable sharing with our community when a little extra guidance or direction feels helpful, especially when you just want things to feel clearer and more manageable.
