People choose Farm Girls for many reasons. Our clear love and affection for our dogs (both our own and our visiting dogs) is always top of the list. But that’s not the only reason. Doggy daycare is about so much more than leaving your dogs in the care of someone else for the day. There are numerous benefits that come from the exposure dogs get at daycare. Here are a few examples:
● Contributes to Better Behaved Pets – Dogs respond to different situations based on their overall training and socialisation (habituation). Being in a well-run, experienced daycare facility can train your dog to recognise and adapt various behaviour patterns in other dogs and even humans.
● Improved Fitness for Your Dog – All dogs need regular physical activity. Obesity in pets is a major concern and can significantly reduce the life span of your dog. Supervised daycare play provides the physical activity dogs need, at their own pace.
● Provides Structure – Being in our daycare can help your dog with destructive behaviors that they may exhibit at home. Just like children, dogs learn from others and will adapt well to routines and schedules. It’s easy to hype a dog up but a lot of dogs struggle to relax. A big part of daycare is down time – learning to relax with others. Our resident dogs are excellent role-models!
The earlier a dog starts daycare, the better for the dog long term. However, even older dogs love attending daycare!
