As dogs age, activity and exercise become less of a focus. Just like humans, this can lead to adverse health effects such as an unhealthy weight. Carrying this extra weight places additional stress on a dog’s heart and may also lead to join and hip pain. It’s important for senior dogs to keep a healthy lifestyle including engaging in physical activities. We monitor the play of dogs to avoid overexertion and we offer naptime that provides a period of rest.
Not only is getting up and moving around good for the older dogs, but they simply enjoy being in the company of other dogs. To make sure your senior dog feels confident at daycare, we place them in a playroom with dogs of similar size and temperament based on what we learn about your dog’s personality and history during our Meet & Greet evaluation. Your pup’s safety and wellbeing is our first and foremost priority.
