Dog day care programs benefit
the dogs of owner’s who have busy lives and are not able
to socialize and exercise their dogs. Owners benefit from
a guilt free day of work or play and can come home to a
calm, relaxed pet. Dog day care provides the best of both
worlds for dogs and owners alike.
Getting its start in
California in 1987, dog day care has exploded to virtually
every small town in America. Started by dog enthusiasts,
owners apply the same principles of running any business
combined with their love of dogs to the create the
ultimate day care business.
An article in the online
magazine VetCentric.com
described the benefits of dog day care this way:
“The guiding principle
behind dog day care is simple – provide a safe and
healthy atmosphere with lots of interaction, both with
other dogs and with people. Dogs can participate in group
play, gnaw on a favorite toy, hang out with humans in the
office, or just lounge on a couch and watch television.
The point is that they’re not at home by themselves.”
Other benefits of dog day
care include a social environment where dogs can play
together, loads of activity, an excellent release for high
energy dogs, year round daycare operation (except for
major holidays), attention by trained staff members, and
piece of mind for the working owner.
Dog day care centers are
mostly held in large, open spaces that have some
separation system for both size and temperament. Most dog
day care centers have an outdoor exercise area as well.
Some day cares provide furniture for dogs to climb on,
agility equipment, and lots of toys.
Some things to consider
when looking for a dog day care are the professionalism of
the staff. Make sure they love dogs, know a lot about dogs
behaviors, and interact with those in dog day care each
day. Also, note the availability of space and
“time-out” areas for dogs who do not get along. Make
sure your dog will be comfortable with air condition,
heat, and bedding. Also, check affordability and general
dog day care policies.
