Often many owners think that doggy daycares are a good replacement or alternative for exercise for their dogs, similar to how many owners view dog parks. The reality though is that for most dogs these types of services are not a good environment or a good match.

Many facilities include structured rest time into their furry clients' day and even have designated areas for snoozing. Some places have nap rooms for their dogs, while others provide individual enclosures where the pups can enjoy a bit of “me time” to balance out all the social activity.

Many dogs thrive in daycare and look forward to their daily romp with friends. Other dogs dogs, in fact, don't like daycare at all.
