🤌 Things we did today that just made sense.

❗️We have a winner for our lobby murder mystery but we have decided to give away one more bath package to give more people a chance to solve it.
Hints:
• Start at the evidence folder. Read the outside and the riddle inside.
• Allow the riddle to lead you to the next clue
• If the riddle sounds like it is leading to something inside the caution tape, it is!
• You can go into the caution tape area and interact with those items too if you believe the riddle is leading to one.
• There are 5 riddles that need solved before unlocking the final piece of evidence.
🧛♀️ Good luck!
👻 We are off to a great start with our Count Dogula Social week and wanted to shout out all of the local businesses that helped make it happen. We truly couldn't have done it without you!

🌟 Come with Weasley during her daycare day with us.
🧠 She experienced nutritional, sensory, occupational, social, and physical enrichment through puzzles, scents, sounds, positive reinforcement training, exploring different heights and surfaces, pools, socialization and so much more.
🤔 Why do we do this?
• It keeps their mind sharp and engaged
• Reduces boredom that can lead to problem behaviors like becoming destructive
• Promotes a healthy weight and overall fitness
• Reduces anxiety and stress
• Enhances social skills
• Buildings confidence and reduces fear
• Enables them to use their natural instincts
• Strengthens the human and dog bond
• Empowers them to explore and make choices
❤️ At FPC, enrichment isn't just a buzzword. We truly believe it is vital for a dog's happiness and overall well-being.
🤗 With arms wide open!

🎃 It's spooky season in our sniff space!
🤯 Did you know our Daycare Premium guests not only get one-on-one obedience training but they also get to enjoy private enrichments like obstacle courses, puzzles, games, IQ Balls, trick training, and access to our sniff space?
👃 Why a space just for sniffing and scavenging? Sniffing is one of the most important forms of enrichment. In fact, dogs devote 40 times more brain volume to decoding smells than we do. To put it simply, they smell the world almost like we see the world! Scent enrichment provides amazing mental stimulation that decreases behavior problems, promotes relaxation, and so much more.
😏 Want your four-legged bestie to enjoy our sniff space too? Book Daycare Premium in the propet portal or fill out a daycare intake form to join our program today: https://www.fetchingpetcompany.com/daycare

🏋♀️ You can catch Ava workin' on her fitness in her private enrichment time during her daycare days with us.
Today she practiced Figure 8s. This is a great well-rounded exercise to support the spine and legs. Maintaining flexibility and muscle strength is so important for our dogs to live long, healthy lives.
🎉 Great job, Ava!
❗️Reunion❗️
This is Reggie, LeAnn's daycare heart dog, last August he had to quit daycare due to a family emergency. I was so excited when his mom called to return this week because I knew how special him and LeAnn's bond was. I was even more excited to get to capture their reunion this morning.
🌟 Moments like these are why we love our jobs so much.
🎉 Welcome back, Reggie!
❗️Sloppy sits ❗️
🤯 Did you know that posture and symmetry in dogs is just as important as it is in humans? A consistent sloppy sit can be an indicator of pain, weakness, or dysfunction. In a normal musculoskeletal system, a dog should be able to sit and maintain proper form when asked; however, they are free to relax and sit how they like in their own time.
👀 If you notice that your dog is incapable of sitting squarely, it may be a good time to have your veterinarian take a look.
🏋♀️ As appeoved by Lyla's vet, she is currently participating in our Daycare Hybrid program with Canine Conditioning Coach, Mikayla, to work on building strength in her hind legs to stabilize her knees, build core strength, and aid in her weight loss journey.
🪑 Today we are using the "sits" as an observational tool to see how her body is moving. Check out how her hind limb position corrects and her body gains more symmetry when using a narrow platform.
🌟 If you want to work on a more square sit with your own dog, try using a narrow platform and start with 3-10 reps.
☀️ We've been having too much fun the last couple of weeks.

🐶 Bubs is showing off our Daycare Hybrid program today.
👇His morning has consisted of 👇
• Group play with his friends including group training, playing in the hose, sniffing sensory yard plants, bubbles, swimming, and more.
• Private, one-on-one training where he worked on sit, down, stays, recall, and the leave it cue.
• Private training with one other daycare Hybrid dog so they can both practice their on/off switch. This means playing then coming out of play to engage with their daycare coach when needed.
• Private puzzle session - today Bubs did an IQ ball and a snuffle ball.
• Frozen kong during his kenneled rest periods.
🌟 He's finishing his day off with more play, sensory experiences, and group training.
