I know a lot of people love sending their dogs to day care. And theyโre often told:
"Your dog loves it!" but here's why ๐ ๐ฑ๐ผ๐ปโ๐ ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ฑ๐ผ๐ด ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐ ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ ๐ซ
In the past two weeks alone, Iโve worked with ๐ณ๐ถ๐๐ฒ ๐ฑ๐ผ๐ด๐ whoโve developed fear or reactivity towards other dogs after attending doggy day care.
It might sound great in theoryโฆ but the reality is that many are ๐๐ป๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐๐ฎ๐ณ๐ณ๐ฒ๐ฑ, ๐๐ป๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐พ๐๐ฎ๐น๐ถ๐ณ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ฑ, ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ฝ๐ผ๐ผ๐ฟ๐น๐ ๐บ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฎ๐ด๐ฒ๐ฑ. Dogs are often overwhelmed, unable to take breaks, and can quickly learn bad habits โ or worse, experience trauma that affects them long-term.
There are safer, more beneficial ways to meet your dogโs need for company, stimulation, and social interaction. If you're not sure what's best for your dog, Iโm always happy to help guide you.
Stop assuming day care = good socialisation.
