What do we want you to see when you look through our photos?
We want you to see the body language and communication of happy dogs enjoying their day.
We want you to know what you’re looking at when you flip through our photos and see for yourself the difference of our social daycare program founded on social measures of success and which incorporates breed aware care, personal play programs and confidence building and social skills programs.
So what do we look for to ensure your dog is having their best day?
We look for relaxed open mouths, relaxed bodies and expressive play. We look for engagement and activity.
We allow play to happen and encourage positive interactions. We have the space, the knowledge and experience to allow dogs to be dogs when they play without the energy getting out of hand.
We look through all photos every day for all that’s being communicated through each dog’s expressions and body language.
Photos are more than just a fun way to share more of your dog’s day with you; they’re an accountability to you to show your dog thriving in, growing within and loving their time with us, and they’re a way for us to ensure we are always delivering on our promise of always advocating for your dog’s wellbeing, of being completely transparent and of providing education for you while providing enrichment for your dog.

What is our Personal Play program?

Not all dogs thrive in a social-based daycare, and that’s okay. Our personal play daycare day is the perfect day for dogs who aren’t a fit for social group dynamics, including:

➡️ Intact dogs over 8 months
➡️ Dogs who become hyper-aroused in group play
➡️ Dogs who do best with one-on-one play with another dog
➡️ Dogs requiring medical rest or recovery

Sometimes dogs age out of enjoying social daycare, which isn’t a bad thing. Dogs mature and change as they age, and their choices for activities and social interests can change too.

Each Personal Play daycare includes three sessions of one-on-one play with an attendant doing activities we know your dog will love! That might be splash pool, sniffari, agility, fetch, flirt pole, or maybe even just snuggles.

To get started with Personal Play daycare, sign up for a Meet & Greet! Meet us, see our facility, and ask questions and see if this is the right complement to your dog’s life 🐾

When it’s a care based model: it’s not just about if they played that day! We aim to ensure our dogs have the best days by providing experiences based on comfort, safety, and personalised enrichment ❤️

Tons of fun for our mid-day arrivals Bear, Dobby, and June! 😊
