If you've never been able to stand the thought of leaving your precious pup alone for hours on end, listen up:  members-only, super bougie cafe for dogs just opened in Tribeca at 120 Duane Street, near Church Street.

The premium 10,000-square-foot club is called Happy Tails and offers daycare, boarding, grooming, training and vet services.

On site there is also a cafe for both dogs and their humans, a retail store and even an event space, effectively making this a SoHo Club and Four Seasons all in one, but for elite dogs. Have we reached pinnacle New York just yet?

If the regular club is not exclusive enough for you, consider Happy Tails' exclusive membership program, Good Dogs Club, which costs $1,350 per month. Getting into the Good Dogs Club requires going through a rigorous vetting process that includes a dog behavioral therapist vetting your pup to determine if they have what it takes to be a member. Premium members get access to unlimited daycare, priority booking and discounts on grooming. 

Happy Tails also offers services that you don't have to be a member for, including boarding, which start at $125 per night. 

"Living in New York City, a lot of dogs are stuck in cramped apartments a lot of the time, and the alternative places where people can bring their dogs during the day do not, at all, equate to what we offer here," Teddy Tawil, a co-founder of Happy Tails, said to the New York Post

We can't disagree with that.

Check out some pictures of the Happy Tails facility, which looks absolutely fabulous:
