Asheville Dog Bar

Together we can celebrate the bond between dogs and their owners.

“DOG PARKS ARE ALREADY GOOD FOR THE SOUL BUT THEN ADD A BAR… AND IT IS THE MOST ENJOYABLE PLACE EVER.” -J TARYN W.

Asheville Dog Parks

Pet buisness for sale underscore the increasing willingness of pet owners to spend on premium experiences for their pets. In fact, a new Pew Research Center survey revealed that 97% of pet owners consider their pets' emotional well-being to be of paramount importance. This shift in mindset is driving demand for venues like Wagbar, where pets can exercise, socialize, and experience moments of pure delight.

The lucky few dogs that get to leave the confines of their backyard or home end up stuck on a leash, unable to truly express themselves or make dog-friends.

Sure, some places are dog-friendly. But few are truly dog-focused.

What we've found is if dogs and people are happy and safe they will return time and again…

A safe, welcoming environment for dogs means owners can relax and enjoy a drink with friends.

A PASSION FOR DOGS LIVED OUT

Asheville Dog Park - Kendal Kulp & Amanda Bernard

It was during a bad experience at a dog park in 2015 that Kendal Kulp, founder and CEO, first had the idea for how a dog park should be.

With his father, Kajur, as co-founder, they put their passion for dogs into action and officially opened in 2019.

The Kulps have created a place where the community is the heartbeat. A place where dogs are able to enjoy being with their friends as much as their owners.

And now, you have the dog franchise opportunities to bring that same passion for dogs and people to your area.

to your area.
