The Farmstead Pet Activity Center

The Farmstead Pet Activity Center The Farmstead PAC was designed to give your pet a place to engage in dog daycare activities to meet and fulfill their core animal instincts.

Easily accessible from the Glenn highway in downtown Eagle River, Alaska. Every pet should visit The Farmstead! Our facility incorporates 2500 square feet of indoor play space, 2500 square feet of outdoor covered play space with K9Grass (turf designed specifically for dogs) to escape the elements and 3000 square feet of uncovered outdoor play space to enjoy all the elements Alaska has to offer — sun, snow, or rain. Your pet will also have access to a 15,000 square feet of natural grass play yard to participate in scheduled activities of your choosing. Additionally, we have 1700 square feet of space designed specifically for you to personally practice social skills with your dog— just like visiting Home Depot or Lowes, except our space was specifically created with you and your dog in mind. Stop in and we will give you a personal tour!

Small changes. A big difference for our senior dogs. ❤️🐾

November is Senior Pet Month, and we’re celebrating the gray muzzles by highlighting simple ways to make their everyday lives more comfortable:

🐾 Secure, nonslip rugs for better traction on slippery floors.
🛏️ Supportive orthopedic beds for comfortable rest.
🚶 A gentle walking warm-up before more active play.
🌲 Shorter, more frequent walks at a pace that suits them—with plenty of sniff breaks!
🧠 Easy-to-access enrichment to keep curious minds engaged.
💤 Quiet spaces and time to rest between activities.

Growing older doesn’t mean losing the chance to explore, play, and be part of the pack. Sometimes, it means adjusting the activity, offering extra support, and letting them set the pace. ❤️

What’s one small change that has helped your senior dog?

Help your dog feel comfortable this Halloween. 🎃❤️

A little preparation can make the evening easier:

🐕 Start the day with exercise suited to your dog and time to sniff.
🏡 Set up a quiet, comfortable space away from the front door before visitors arrive.
🎶 Use familiar calming music or white noise to soften outside sounds.
🦴 Offer a stuffed Kong, Pupsicle, or appropriate chew to enjoy.
📸 Let costume photos be optional—if your dog looks uncomfortable, skip them.
❤️ Respect that some dogs would prefer to sit out the visitors and festivities.

Still deciding what your dog will do Halloween night? Eligible pack members can join us for a sleepover! Reach out to ask about availability and arrange their stay. 🐾

Keep the treats for the trick-or-treaters! 🎃🐾

Five Halloween hazards to keep away from your dog:

🍫 Chocolate—especially dark and baking chocolate—is toxic to dogs.
🍬 Xylitol, a sweetener in some candy and gum, can cause dangerously low blood sugar and liver damage.
🍇 Raisins can cause kidney damage.
🍬 Wrappers can cause choking or intestinal blockages if swallowed.
💚 Glow sticks contain a bitter liquid that can cause drooling and mouth irritation if chewed.

Also watch for lit candles, chewable decorations, and costumes that restrict movement or cause stress. With the door opening for visitors, give your dog a comfortable, secure space away from the commotion. ❤️

If your dog eats something potentially harmful, call your vet or ASPCA Poison Control at (888) 426-4435 promptly. Don’t wait for symptoms or induce vomiting unless a veterinary professional tells you to.

Save this reminder before Halloween! 🎃

Fetch fan at home? Let’s talk about thoughtful play for National Fetch Day! 🎾🐾

For dogs who enjoy it, fetch can be an opportunity to practice skills alongside having fun:

🎾 Teach clear, consistent cues so your dog understands when the game begins, when to release the ball, and when play is finished.
⏸️ Keep sessions short and offer regular breaks.
👃 Mix in time to sniff and explore.
🐕 Pay attention to whether your dog can comfortably pause and move on to something else.

If they’re becoming increasingly frantic or struggling to disengage, wrap up the game and give them time to decompress.

When the game ends, does your dog settle in, head off to sniff, or try to negotiate another throw? 🎾

A healthy weight helps dogs move comfortably and enjoy the activities they love. ❤️🐾

For Pet Obesity Awareness Day, we’re highlighting how maintaining a healthy weight can help protect joints, support mobility, and contribute to a longer, healthier life.

At the Farmstead PAC, we support those goals with movement suited to each dog’s age and abilities, opportunities to explore and play, and time to rest and recover.

Healthy movement looks different for every dog. Your veterinarian can help you understand your dog’s ideal body condition and what’s right for them.
