This animal lovers paradise is a new concept in the Kingdom and Kuwaiti owner Dalal Ahmed, said she got the idea during a previous visit to the kingdom. 

She also says "I came to Saudi Arabia for a visit with my dog, but wasn't allowed to walk on the beach with him” adding "I was very sad and decided to help by opening a coffee shop for people who have dogs – and even for those who do not."

Various grooming services are also offered while dogs are also treated to washes and blow-dries.
