DID YOU KNOW⁉️ ⁉️
Quiet time is actually super important for dogs at daycare, and here’s why:
1. Prevents Overstimulation: Daycares can be exciting with all the playing and socializing, but too much stimulation can stress dogs out. Quiet time gives their nervous systems a chance to reset.
2. Physical Rest: Just like kids, dogs need breaks to rest their bodies. Constant activity can lead to exhaustion or even injury, especially in high-energy pups.
3. Supports Better Behavior: Tired or overstimulated dogs are more likely to get cranky, snap at other dogs, or misbehave. A structured nap helps them stay calm and well-behaved.
4. Mimics Natural Rhythm: Dogs naturally spend a good chunk of their day resting or napping—sometimes up to 12–14 hours. Incorporating downtime keeps the daycare environment more in line with their natural needs.
5. Improves Socialization: After a break, dogs often interact more positively with others. They’re less reactive and more ready to engage in healthy play.

So basically, it’s about balance—fun, stimulation, and rest all working together to keep dogs happy, healthy, and safe.

We provide quiet time from 11:30 to 1:30 daily. 🐶

To our Butler/Falmouth friends effected by flooding….

If you are having to evacuate and have absolutely nowhere for your dog to go… please reach out!

I have a few open kennels this weekend and can temporarily (3 days max) help a few pups in need of a warm, dry, safe home away from home💙

I will have to have vaccination records.

We’ve had no power since midnight. Unfortunately, we will be closed today, April 3rd.

I have a fridge/freezer full of stuff. If you have extra room please let me know. I’d love to give this stuff away instead of it going bad.

Happy birthday to one of my very own pups, Bello!

Bello is alpha here at Paradise for Paws and does a great job keeping everything calm and orderly. He’s been by my side since I rescued him a little over 3 years ago and has been my bestfriend ever since!

Bello enjoys car rides, playing with his friends and sleeping in his moms bed 🐶🐾

Bello is undergoing a serious procedure in a few weeks so please keep him in your thoughts and prayers! He means the world to me💙

🌷🐾✨Spring✨🐾🌷

We are so excited for the warm weather, pool party days, and all the fun that comes with it..
However, spring brings bugs.

Flea/Tick prevention is an ABSOLUTE requirement from April 1st- Oct 1st.
I will need each daycamp dog on a monthly oral preventative. Not a collar, not a wash, not the back of neck garbage.. A monthly preventative that is prescribed through your veterinarian is requried to attend.

I will require initial neg. heartworm test and proof of monthly doses starting April 1st.

Thank you for helping to keep Paradise for Paws a clean, safe, fun place for our pups to play and explore! 🐾 🐶
