How Doggy Daycare Can Improve Dog Behavior

Do you feel guilty leaving your pup home alone? Next time, try dropping them off at a dog boarding facilities near you. At Bridewell Hilltop Kennels, we employ animal behavior experts that use effective techniques to communicate with your pet. Our trained staff know how to create a safe and fun environment for your dog to enjoy while you’re away.

Dogs are extremely social animals. A well-socialized dog reacts to the world around it naturally, without any fear or aggression. At daycare, your pup will have the opportunity to interact and socialize with other dogs.

By being around people and other dogs, your four-legged friend will develop confidence and learn to behave appropriately in social situations through playing in a pack.

Dogs need an outlet to release their energy. If a dog does not get enough exercise, they can become bored, and behave in an aggressive, or destructive manner. Some examples of destructive behavior include:

  • Chewing on furniture, carpet, rugs, baseboard, and any items left around the home
  • Barking and howling continuously
  • Digging holes in the backyard
  • Urinating and defecating inappropriately in unassigned areas

A tired dog is a happy dog. Doggy daycares have acres of free land where their guests can play and have fun. When you pick your pooch up from its daycare, they will surely be tired from the time they spent.

Dog daycare staff keep an eye on their guests while they play. If a dog gets aggressive and starts playing rough, a dog behaviorist immediately intervenes, making them realize their mistake.

Dogs are deeply attached to their owners. When left home alone frequently, many dogs develop separation anxiety. Dogs with separation anxiety begin to freak out when their owners leave the home.

When you leave your pooch at a reputable dog daycare, you can rest assured that they are in safe hands. Daycare facility staff engage guests in various activities to keep their minds and bodies stimulated. Dog owners who use doggy daycares have peace of mind knowing that the daycare staff is taking good care of their furry friends.
