I have it on good authority that Winston insisted on going first this day. Winston is a long term client who has had some recent health issues. He is THRIVING in Daycare PLUS, where he was a little bit "over" regular daycare. We use his special treats so as not to upset his belly.

Check out Madam Pippa navigating obstacles in Daycare PLUS. This is our first obstacle course and we expect all the dogs to get more comfortable with the equipment as the weeks go by.

Here is what WOOFS! Daycare Plus looks like. After some free play, we moved to a calmer time. Some dogs are working on attention exercises, Penny is chewing on a bone and Hoagie is taking a break. Dog get to choose what they want to participate in and everyone is happy and relaxed.

We had such a blast for opening day for Daycare PLUS at Ballston yesterday! We all enjoyed the "First Day of School" energy, and the whole canine crew got to explore each of the three play spaces.

Our activities this week are 1) just getting settled in, 2) beginning group sits / waits, especially in each new environment, and 3) practicing calm behaviors. In our new format, we are also able to bring in a whole new range of toys and beds and mats in a way we never could before. Oh, and snuggles. Lots and lots of snuggles.

Thank you to EVERYONE for your support as we made this crazy transition over the last six weeks. Your kind words and stories have made us feel very emotional (and I cannot even believe how many of you have memories with Laura from Ballston daycare all the way back to our most humble beginnings. We are so honored that you still trust us with your babies 22 years later. You are FAMILY.)

And thank you to our AMAZING daycare team, who has worked their tail off through the move, and were ready to go yesterday to make sure all of our pups feel welcome and acclimated to the new space. I can't believe how lucky we are to have such a great team.
