| What is Dog Daycare? | |
|
The definition of Dog Daycare is an organized
controlled and monitored environment for a group of friendly dogs
to interact and play in an enclosed building or yard.
"Most dogs today also lack the stimulation of a real job - the herding, hunting, ratting, carting, or guarding that they were bred to do. Left home alone all day while their families are at work and school, they are bored, lonely, restless, and unemployed. Without the opportunity to interact regularly with others of their own kind, they even forget hot to speak 'dog,' and when they do meet up with other canines they are often socially inept, fearful, or aggressive. The sad result is a growing population of pets who exhibit inappropriate behaviors in the home, and who are 'not good with other dogs.'" |

 Animal experts agree that exercise and socialization are
an important part in maintaining a well-balanced, healthy dog.
Dogs left at home for extended periods of time lack proper exercise and
mental stimulation which can lead to problems such as destructive
behavior, incessant barking, seperation anxiety, regression in
housebreaking, etc. etc. Guilty owners add to the problem by
overdoing activity on the weekends and overfeeding of treats to make
their dog happy. Dog Daycare provides
the exercise and socialization a dog needs in a safe, supervised
environment.

Dog
Daycare is one of the newest services available for
dogs. It differs from Day Boarding, which some kennels and veterinarians
will offer, where the dog is kept in a kennel for most of the day.
Dog Daycare also differs from Dog Walking services whereby the dog is
typically tethered (on leash).. In addition, Dog Daycare provides the dog with a
social setting, which helps teach the dog how to properly interact in a
group dynamic.
