Many people ask what doggie day care actually is and when I tell them about it, some people are a bit negative about it, but I soon realise these people are not dog owners!
If they were, they would understand the worry about leaving their beloved pooch at home all day, alone.
We all have to work, well most of us. If we don't work we still have every day routines that we have to keep to, so does this mean we shouldn't own a dog? Taking our dogs with us is not an option, leaving them in a car is also not an option, especially in this heat. So that's why we offer Doggie Day Care, but what really goes on here?
I'll explain all to you........
Most of our regular attendees wait eagerly at their homes for our carers to collect them. Collection is between 8-9am every morning. Some of the dogs are dropped off by their owners on their way to work and they eagerly await their new found friends a the centre! It's like the calm before the storm and then when everyone is here it's like a big dose of fun and energy has been injected into the building!
All the dogs greet each other like only dogs know how to! A bit of chase is played, a few kisses exchanged, a few sniffs here and there and one by one they come and say hi to the carers!
Those who have not had it already are given breakfast and then its play time! Dogs have an outstanding energy in the morning! The carers work with the dogs, keeping them active and entertained. All boredom is eliminated from their day and they love it!
Around mid morning they are all taken out for their walk, always a fun time for them!
When they come back it's clear they have worn themselves out and it's time for cuddles and snoozes!
When they wake up........it starts all over again! Play time, feeding, walking and then snoozing! The dogs just love it here and so the carers! It's hard to imagine these super star dogs being locked up, home alone all day!
It funny when it comes to home, some of the dogs really don't want to leave! We have to chase them round to put their leads on. We drop the dogs home between 6 - 6.30pm.
We've had nothing but great repports back from their owners, saying their dogs are happeir, more active and healthier.
One day Doggie Day Care will be as normal as Child care!

Day Care equals Happy Dogs.
Since the launch of Doggie Day care on the 8th June 2009, we have been recieving daily enquiries and new attendants!
It's great to spend every day with these dogs, get to know their personalities and visa versa. We've had reports back from the owners that the some of the troublesome dogs are becoming better behaved as each week passes.
They really start to come out of their shell and become more confident with every visit to the Day Care Centre.
Here is Louis, a Pug/French bull dog cross. He's a handsome, playful and joyful character who loves chasing balls and playing tug of war. He is such a man and it's great to get to know this big personality. Louis is not fussed about being given love and cuddles, he just want you to throw the ball and play with him......all day long!
Louis has recentley had a serious opperation on his back, so the carers have to be mind full of certain things but he is well on his way to recovery, which is fantastic!
His owners Nick and Clay have repported back to us saying that Louis is an all round happier and more active dog since coming to day care. He joined us in the second week and you can see how happy he is. He's a valued member at Dog Day Care.
Both the team and the other dogs enjoy having Louis at the centre.

Doggy Day Care Centre.
With so many dog owners working full time, it's hard to know what to do with your dog when you go about your daily routines.
Imagine your dog at home all day, normally confined to one room, missing you, missing human contact and missing being part of the pack.
Dogs are naturally sociable creatures and being left alone can have some really negative effects.
You dog can develop behavioural problems; it may become hard to let them socialize with other dogs.
The question we ask though, is what other choice do we have. If we have a full time job do we have to make the decision that we simply can't have a dog?
There are other options; one that we suggest is Dog Day Care.
You wouldn't leave your children home alone all day so why leave your pets?
Dog Day care offers full time company and care for our beloved canine friends, they can even help with any bad habits your dog may have and generally make them happier and well behaved.
