I need a place for my dog to stay in Highlands, N.C. while we have
lunch. Is there s doggie day care there? If not, do you have any ideas
of where she could stay for several hours on a week day?
Thank you

I found some useful information for you in the "Yellow Pages" of

Many veterinarians offer boarding services for pets. Here's contact
info for the only veterinarian I could find in Highlands:

Unfortunately, a hearing loss causes me to be unable to verify by
telephone whether you will be able to board your dog briefly with
either of these establishments. I hope this helps.
