3 Dog Garage

3 Dog Garage is a unique, not-for-profit, historic-vehicle museum located in Boyertown, Pennsylvania, and occupies a restored, three-story, early 20th-century brick manufacturing building with an attached one-story wing built approximately 50 years ago. A second building, within easy walking distance of the first, is a recently and extensively renovated mid-20th century brick manufacturing facility, which opened its doors as a museum in 2022. Display areas, a working restoration shop, a library and other spaces, all combined, total approximately 75,000 square feet.
The several collections in the museum contain vehicles as chosen by long-time collector Ross Myers, who bought his first vintage automobile, a 1936 Ford in need of total restoration, when he was eight years old. The car is now a national-award winning show car and resides at 3 Dog Garage with more than 100 other vehicles.
The museum takes its name from three Myers family dogs, all of whom enjoyed going for rides in old cars, especially old open cars. Their names were George, Gracie and Dauber, all Bouviers, now in Dog Heaven.
Ross and his wife Beth have designed the museum spaces so that the visitor experience provides the opportunity for close personal inspection and enjoyment of the vehicles without ropes or encumbrances to easy movement. There is no charge to visit 3 Dog Garage, but admission can be made by pre-arrangement with the museum scheduling department for groups such as car clubs or community service organizations.
