Frequently Asked Questions

We accept new pups at 12 weeks of age. They do need to have their series of Rabies, Distemper, Bordetella, and Leptospirosis prior to starting daycare. Canine influenza is strongly encouraged but not required.  All puppies up to 8 months must have a recent negative fecal exam. It's important for dogs to be socialized early and we also offer training for new puppies, including during daycare as well as Canine Development Camps M-Th. So bring your pup on in and help them become the best pup they can be!

All dogs need to be neutered or spayed by about 8 months. Every dog is different and they mature at different rates. We will tell you if we think that your pup needs to leave daycare until it's neutered or spayed. The earlier a dog starts daycare, the better and more socialized it is in all aspects of life!

We have some boarding spots for dogs that can't be in daycare because they just don't get along with other dogs. Those become our non-daycare dogs and are taken out 4 times a day. We also have some fun activities that you can sign your pups up for outside of daycare, including Canine Development Camps which they would need to do alone -- or some non-daycare pups have a sibling or two that might enjoy the camps at the same time!

Thanks for asking! We need to have you hit the Book Online button and follow the steps to get setup. When sending in your pup's vaccines, please let us know days/times that work for your schedule for the evaluation - which we set by appointment M-Sat between 9:30am - 4pm.

Well that depends! Some dogs just love hanging out in the daycare floor and don't show any anxiety. Others take a bit more time to get used to other dogs. If your pup is new to daycare, we always suggest starting with a few hours and then working up to a full day. An overwhelmed dog can get upset tummies, react aggressively, etc. We want the best for your pup so we will let you know how they are doing on evaluation day and provide you with some suggestions. Again, the earlier your pup comes to daycare, the better. If you have a rescue pup, it's best if you can keep them with you for several weeks before trying daycare. Start daycare with just a few hours and build up to a full day so they know this is a fun place and not someplace that you are dropping them off and won't return. Dogs learn quickly so it generally takes just a few times before they become comfortable and excited to get into the car and come to daycare.

We truly believe in giving your pup the highest quality foods, so it spends more time with you and less time at the vet. We also have lots of natural products to help combat allergies, tummy issues, eye issues, ear issues, etc. We urge our clients to look at the ingredient labels on dog foods, and avoid foods with chicken, legumes, corn, corn gluten meal, soy, chick peas and sweet potato as they are all high allergy producers! Feel free to call or come in and we can help you navigate the crazy world of dog food, allergies, etc.!
