Dog Days of Birmingham, that downtown doggy daycare spot, is switching hands after 15 years.

The couple sold their suburban home to chase this dream downtown, and now they're ready to step back. Folks in Birmingham are pouring out love online, calling it a community staple for daycare, boarding, grooming, training and supplies. One regular shared how their dogs thrive there over the years, from pups to heartfelt goodbyes. The big upgrade is a move to a fresh spot next to Cahaba Brewery, with way more indoor and outdoor play space. Renovations are happening now, aiming for an opening in May.
