Owning a dog is great but it’s a fulltime job, they require lots of love and attention and not all of us can provide that for all of the time. That’s why there are companies like SassyPups out there that can provide daycare for your dog with a host of benefits to suit you as well.
So what are the benefits of doggy daycare? The obvious ones; if you’re out at work all day, you live in a small apartment, or you’re unable to exercise your dog fully, then daycare is a good option. And SassyPups offers a pick-up and drop-off service so it’s easy, convenient and fits in around your day.
But what are the other benefits?
Exercise
Getting the proper amount of exercise for your dog is important to keep them fit and healthy. They rely on us to give them the exercise they need, and when we’re not around, that energy can get channelled into bad habits such as barking, destructive behaviours and weight gain. Doggy daycare provides an environment where exercise is routine. After a day at SassyPups, your doggy will come home relaxed and ready for a quiet evening.
Socialisation
Dogs desire to interact with others. Socialising with people and other dogs teaches them how to behave better. They learn simple basic things such as not jumping up strangers, being gentle and not aggressive towards other dogs. Often dogs are aggressive when really they are fearful or unsure of their situations, so socialising helps build up their confidence.
Relief of boredom and loneliness
A dog cooped up all day becomes a bored dog! Their energy is transferred into chewing, ripping and other destructive behaviour. They can become anxious and often bark excessively or whine which can cause a problem with neighbours. Many pet owners also worry about leaving their dogs all day. Dogs are social creatures and separation anxiety can be a problem sometimes leading to depression.
Here at SassyPups Daycare, your doggy is provided with plenty of mental and physical stimulation to dramatically reduce negative behaviours associated with boredom and loneliness. They will make friends to come back and interact with on a regular basis, allowing them to develop new social bonds.
Peace of mind and safety
When we’re not with our dogs we think about them and often worry about leaving them. If they’re home alone are they safe about the house? What are they getting up to? Are they in danger? Daycare instantly puts your mind at ease, knowing your doggy is being well cared for by professionals in a safe environment and should anything untoward happen, you would be contacted immediately and the necessary action taken.
Lots of affection
Here at SassyPups we are here to love and care for your doggy whilst you’re away. We are passionate and absolutely love what we do. We’re here to keep you doggy happy and we want them to want to come and stay with us again and again. They get plenty of one-on-one attention, love and cuddles…..plus more!
Structure
Dogs do better with structure in their lives, they are creatures of habit and having a daily routine allows them to satisfy their habitual needs.
SassyPups provides a daily routine of walks, playtime, contact with other dogs and gives them something to look forward to and associate with.
Build up a relationship
Hollie and Jacobe, co-owners of SassyPups and employees Dave, Donna and Mel, would love to look after your doggy. It’s very important to build up a good relationship with Hollie and Jacobe. We want you and your pooch to be happy and want to stay with us many times, that’s why we’ll chat through everything with you first and get a good idea of your dog’s behaviours and mannerisms.
So if you think doggy daycare might be a good solution for you……we would love to chat with you!
