Tips for Choosing a Dog Boarding and DayCare Facility

Have you noticed how many dogs there are in Chicago? It seems more and more people are adopting or purchasing a dog from a reputable breeder these days. It is a huge investment of money and time and I’m sure you want the best for your new little furry family member. So the buzz around the city is “What is the best in Dog Boarding and Doggie Daycare”?

For some of us, choosing a proper Dog Boarding and Doggie Daycare facility can be just as stressful as choosing the right daycare for a child. Because let’s face it, our dogs ARE our children in many ways! They are a member of our family and we want to entrust them with someone knowledgeable and above all, kind.

Choosing a Doggie Daycare

• See how the dogs interact with the staff of the facility.  While you are at work, the last thing you should worry about is if your dog is lonely, ignored or worst of all, mistreated.
• Is the dog daycare or boarding facility prepared for any illness your dog might suddenly have while you’re away? As if knowing your pooch is sick is not bad enough, wondering whether the staff really know how to care for a sick pet can be REALLY frightening
• Is the facility clean and free from funky smells? Aside from the fact that a dog’s sense of smell is up to 100,000 times that of a human, an unclean facility is a breeding ground for disease?
•  Is there a schedule or routine that the staff follows so that all the dogs and puppies get fed and watered, walked or groomed (if that’s an option)?
• Is the facility equipped to administer regular medication if your child….I meant pup… requires it?
• What is the temperament of the dogs your baby will be interacting with? Do they have a plan of action if something  goes awry?  Consider replacing first sentence with:  Does the facility temperament assess every dog before accepting them to ensure that your dog will be as “safe” as possible?
