If you have to be gone all day and you don’t like leaving your dog at home by himself, Doggie daycare in Bowie is the answer. By putting your pooch in daycare, you won’t have to worry about him being home all alone and he will be much happier too. Below are some questions you may have about daycare for your dog.
Q.) Will my dog get exercise during the day while he is at daycare?
A.) Yes, your dog will get to exercise and play with other dogs while he’s there. If your dog really doesn’t like being around other pets, you can schedule individual playtime for him so that he gets his required exercise too. Dogs that get regular exercise are healthier and happier. A dog that can’t run and play easily gets bored and may become destructive if left at home all day by himself.
Q.) I’m afraid that my dog might catch a disease or fleas from another dog while he is at daycare.
A.) All dogs that attend doggie daycare must be up to date on all vaccinations and must be tested for internal parasites. In addition, all pets will be treated for ticks and fleas. The health and welfare of all pets while at daycare is of utmost importance, so every precaution is taken so that they have a safe stay.
Q.) Do I have to bring my dog’s food to daycare?
A.) Every pet is fed a quality food while at daycare, however if your pet has to eat a special type of food or if he is picky, then you can certainly bring it for him. If your dog has to take medication, the daycare personnel will also administer the medicine to your dog.
Q.) Do I need to bring my dogs favorite toy or blanket?
A.) Doggie daycare in Bowie supplies toys and sleeping mats for every pet, so you can leave your dog’s toys at home so that he can play with them in his own home.
