dogs in the gym
we love our furry friends but our customers will always be our first priority
Your dog is very welcome to visit all 9 Degrees gyms. We ask that dogs are kept on leash for the duration of your session and do not become disruptive or overly excited. Although we love dogs the climbing gym is a space for them to curl up and nap, not play.
Please do not bring your dog if it is not comfortable around large groups, loud noises or has a tendency to bark.
It's important to remember that while some of us love dogs, not everybody does! Barking, whining and excited dogs are very disruptive to those simply trying to climb. Bringing your pet is a bonus, not a right. Due to the strict nature of pets in the gym we would recommend leaving your pet at home for your first visit.
We reserve the right to ask any dogs to leave at any time if they cannot behave suitably.
