Is dog daycare right for your pooch? The answer is almost definitely “Yes!” Here’s why: dogs are social animals and extroverts by nature. That means that although our pups can adapt to our routines, some struggle with spending their days alone while we work to bring home the bacon. If you’re a natural extrovert, you know what we mean. Spending too much time alone can lead to depression and even poor health.
To prevent this, it’s important to find ways to give our poochies the structured days and social stimulation they crave. Silverbrook Kennels doggy daycare is this answer!
The Benefits of Doggy Daycare
1. It’s a social experience: If your dog has limited opportunities to socialize with other dogs or people, dog daycare can be just the thing to keep him healthy and happy. A good facility provides a safe environment for your pooch to play with other dogs of a wide variety of breeds and personalities.
2. It’s like when you hit the gym: You hit the gym to keep yourself in shape and mingle with like-minded people. Well, your pup needs this too! For a dog, a less active lifestyles is bad for both body and mind. Dogs who spend a lot of time alone can develop personality issues along with physical health problems like overeating and poor mobility. Your dog needs inter-“action” with other dogs! Weekly or daily doggy daycare sessions at Silverbrook Kennels will keep your pooch active and engaged. That’s a win-win!
3. It helps eliminate separation anxiety: If your dog suffers from separation anxiety, you understand it’s a real thing that’s hard for them to deal with. If your pooch is stressed out and anxious over being left alone, he’ll display behavior such as whining, howling, licking, or chewing. These are surefire signs your pup is unhappy.
