It is an extra play session set up around photos of your dog. Additional picture play sessions are $14.99 per kennel, and bubble picture play sessions are $19.99. [Book a stay](https://happypawskennels.propetware.com/customerLogin)[Call 707-678-6600](tel:+17076786600) The rate sheet lists them under additional fun for your dog. ## The two options Price is per kennel, so two dogs sharing a kennel pay one session price. An additional picture play session is $14.99. An additional BUBBLE picture play session is $19.99. ## What it adds The word additional on the sheet means you can add sessions to your stay. Please ask the kennel what a session includes and how the photos are shared, because the sheet does not spell that out. ## Photos and Happy Paws Google reviewers often mention photos from their dog's stay, and the kennel sells picture play sessions as an extra for owners who want more. See [do you send photos](https://happypawskennels.com/questions/do-you-send-photos/) and the [picture play page](https://happypawskennels.com/extras/picture-play-sessions/). ## Costing a stay Three picture play sessions in one kennel is 3 x $14.99. Add that to the nightly rate of the kennel class you choose. The [stay cost estimator](https://happypawskennels.com/tools/stay-cost-estimator/) covers the nights. ## Why owners add one A photo of a happy dog is a good reason to relax on a trip. If you are away for a week or more, an extra session or two can give you a look at your dog in the yard. Ask the kennel how many sessions fit your stay. ## Where it fits in the extras The picture play sessions sit with the Happy Pup Cup at $4.99, the Happy Lick Mat at $4.99 and the Happy Pupsicle at $7.99. None of them is required, and you can mix them to suit your dog. ### Sources (checked October 19, 2026) - [Happy Paws Kennels 2026 rate sheet (PDF)](https://happypawskennels.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/2026-Rates-EFFECTIVE-1-1-26.pdf) - [Happy Paws Kennels, rates page](https://happypawskennels.com/rates/) ### Visit or call 6677 Midway Road, Dixon, CA 95620 [707-678-6600](tel:+17076786600) | Drop-off and pick-up, every day | 7:30 to 11:30 AM and 2:00 to 5:00 PM | | --- | --- | | Tours, every day (no appointment) | 9:00 to 11:00 AM and 2:00 to 4:00 PM | [Book a stay](https://happypawskennels.propetware.com/customerLogin) ### Related - [Picture play & bubble play sessions](https://happypawskennels.com/extras/picture-play-sessions/) - [Happy extras](https://happypawskennels.com/extras/) - [Do you send photos?](https://happypawskennels.com/questions/do-you-send-photos/) - [Dog guests](https://happypawskennels.com/photo-gallery/dogs/) - [Stay cost estimator](https://happypawskennels.com/tools/stay-cost-estimator/) - [FAQ](https://happypawskennels.com/faq/) ## Read next - [Do you send photos?](https://happypawskennels.com/questions/do-you-send-photos/) - [Can you board a diabetic pet?](https://happypawskennels.com/questions/can-you-board-a-diabetic-pet/) - [How far are you from Sacramento airport?](https://happypawskennels.com/questions/how-far-are-you-from-sacramento-airport/) - [How do I find you?](https://happypawskennels.com/questions/how-do-i-find-you-the-wind-turbine/) - [Do I need to fill out the boarding agreement if I have an online account?](https://happypawskennels.com/questions/do-i-need-to-fill-out-the-boarding-agreement-if-i-have-an-online-account/) - [How do I upload vaccine records?](https://happypawskennels.com/questions/how-do-i-upload-vaccine-records/) - [Will my dog be tired when I pick up?](https://happypawskennels.com/questions/will-my-dog-be-tired-when-i-pick-up/) - [Why does my dog need a bath after a country stay?](https://happypawskennels.com/questions/why-does-my-dog-need-a-bath-after-a-country-stay/) Answers ## Questions people ask Still have a question?
