🐶 Being around furry friends can allow their confidence to skyrocket and help them to better adjust to new situations.

🗓️ Creating a routine for your pup can be a great way to establish consistency throughout their day, so they know what to expect.

Bringing your dog to daycare at Dogtopia allows them to:
🐾 Reach up to 60k steps daily
🐶 Enjoy agility training
🧠 Stimulate their mind with fun brain games and arts & crafts
🫧 Take a trip to the dog spa for total relaxation and pampering

We love celebrating doggie friendships! 🧡🐶⁣🫶The bonds that pups form at daycare are not only adorable but also beneficial for their wellbeing. When dogs play with their Best Furry Friends Forever (BFFFs), they enhance their communication skills, boost their confidence around others, and tap into their natural pack instinct.

Together, furry friends can be a powerful duo. 🐾 Book your pup’s daycare visit today!

Worried about your furry friend during the upcoming solar eclipse? Here's what you need to know:⁣
⁣
👓 Will the Eclipse Hurt My Dog? Don't fret about canine-sized eyewear – dogs are smarter than we think! Dogs don't typically stare at the sun, so, during the eclipse, they're unlikely to be gazing skyward in curiosity.⁣
⁣
🐶 Will the Eclipse Stress Out My Dog? While wildlife might react to the celestial event, your pup probably won't be bothered. If they do show signs of anxiety, remember, the eclipse is fleeting – only lasting a few minutes. Studies suggest any canine reactions might be influenced by human behavior.⁣
⁣
Rest assured, your furry companion should be just fine during this cosmic spectacle, especially if they are busy playing with BFFFs indoors at Dogtopia of Arlington by the Parks! 🌟 🐕🌑⁣
