That being said, I think all dogs handle daycare differently. As not all daycares are the same. Its important to know what your daycares regime for your dog is. Do they have set schedules? Who plays with whom, or is it a free for all? How much play time does my pet get? What does the business require for the pets lodged there? How often do they clean? If my pet DOES have to stay overnight, where is he kept? Does anyone make a night visit for potty breaks? HOw early do they come in in the morning.... and the BIG question.... How much will I be CHARGED????
The Petlodge in KY spoiled my babies like crazy. The girls loved it, and I felt better knowing someone was watching them. (Especially with Diva's medical condition.) On the other hand another place I tried never cleaned their "rooms". The dogs were kenneled all day, and they would let large and small dogs play unsupervised. Umm, with a tiny? I dont think so!
Now if only I could find another place as good as the Petlodge for such an amazing price!!! |
I'm in Louisville, KY. Is Petlodge here or in another city or town~? I don't know if your refering to me, but when the big dogs and little dogs were outside in the gated area the other day neither the large dogs or small dogs played at all they told me. This place is run by the Humane Society and is very clean and well staffed in the day and afternoon times from what I have seen. Even where they get kenneled for their break time, is very clean and well air-conditioned too. They get potty break twice a day for day-camp. If they are in the outside fenced area, they may go there and that is another potty break. They told me once that they held Maxwell and he really enjoyed being held, so they do get attention there.
