Why dog daycare? Doggie Daycare!

 

We understand Pet Owners are extremely busy in today's world and sometimes pets are forgotten or left alone. Pets who are bored and/or lonely can become destructive and develop bad behavior in a way to act out for more attention. The answer to this is DAYCARE.

Dog Daycare provides your dog with:

  • lots of love from pet lovers all day long
  • activities designed to stimulate their mind
  • refresher on basic obedience sit stay "no jump" etc.
  • daily exercise walks and socialization with other dogs

 

Requirements:

  • Age: Puppies must be at least 16 weeks of age (4months) and must have all sets of vaccinations, including DHPPC, Bordetella and Rabies
  • Proper written proof of the required vaccinations are required: (failure to do so will result in denial or cancellation of services)
    • Rabies: Yearly or every 3 years
    • DHPPC: (Distemper/Parvo) Once per year

Why dogs need DAYCARE:

 

Dogs and puppies are genetically social creatures and have the innate desire of being around other dogs and people.  Each breed of dog was developed for a particular function (i.e. labs and golden retrievers are hunting dogs they have a need for activity)  Daycare is a great way to channel their inherent need for this and will allow them to be a better and more obedient member of the family. 

 

Socialization is important in the development of a dog as it teaches them how to adapt to and enjoy people, other dogs and different environments.  This improves their overall relationships and approach in a variety of situations.

 

Daycare is extremely valuable for owners who are apartment dwellers who lack having a yard for their dog to exercise.

 

Destructive dogs often behave poorly due to boredom and lack of involvement. A daycare program will allow this dog to expel this harbored energy in a positive fashion.

 

Daycare facilities are a wonderful place to introduce a new dog to a current pet. Many dogs become territorial in their own homes and struggle with accepting a new dog into the household. Dog Daycare allows two dogs to be introduced on neutral grounds also decreasing the chance for owner aggression issues.

 

Daycare is a great alternative when you have pest control roofers remodeling cleaning personnel movers in your home OR when you are relocating hosting a bridal/baby or other shower, relatives are visiting children visiting or a baby being born.
