Enrichment Dog Day Care
Dog Day Care. Reimagined.
The bond between you and your furry companion is truly special. However, our busy lifestyles can sometimes make it difficult to meet all of our dogs’ needs to keep them content and healthy. This can result in issues such as loneliness, boredom, weight gain, anxiety, and unwanted behaviors at home.
That’s where Central Bark® Amarillo Enrichment Dog Day Care comes in. We provide a safe and nurturing environment where your dog can play, learn, and socialize. Through social interaction, mental challenges, and physical activity, we ensure your dog receives the stimulation they need to lead a happy and healthy life.
Our focus on canine enrichment is designed to improve your dog’s overall well-being. Through engaging activities that stimulate their senses, encourage problem-solving, and build confidence, we aim to enhance their quality of life. You can rest assured knowing that your dog is enjoying a fantastic day with their furry friends. Enrichment Dog Day Care is our specialty, and we pride ourselves on providing an experience like no other.
A Healthy Balanced Day
At our enrichment doggy day care, we offer a well-rounded experience for your furry friend. Each day is customized to meet your dog’s specific needs and preferences and includes:
- Play, Exercise, and Socialization: Regular exercise helps dogs maintain a healthy weight and uplifts their mood, providing an outlet for their energy. Positive interactions with humans, dogs, and environments foster well-adjusted and sociable pets. We offer small and large playgroups in both indoor and outdoor areas, catering to your dog’s age, personality, and comfort level.
- Rest: Adequate rest is essential for your dog’s overall health. Our daily schedule ensures they have time to relax and recharge, maintaining a healthy balance between activity and rest.
- Learning: Dogs learn from each other and our experienced staff, who use positive training techniques to encourage safe and healthy interactions. Through guided play, dogs practice good social behavior and learn from their peers.
- Love: Your dog becomes part of our family while they’re with us, receiving all the affection and attention they need. With regular attendance, we build a strong bond with your dog, allowing us to understand their personality, preferences, and any potential issues that may arise.
Commitment to Safety
The safety and well-being of our guests are our utmost priority. As fellow dog parents, we treat each and every dog with the same care and attention we would give our own furry companions. We are dedicated to creating a healthy and secure environment for all who come through our doors.
Central Bark® Enrichment Dog Day Care Features:
Flexible Group Play
Flexible playgroups allow us to match your dog with the social atmosphere and play schedule they can enjoy and benefit from most. This helps give them a healthy balance of play, rest, and learning and creates a safer social environment with a better quality of play. And our lower dog-to-staff ratios offer more individual attention, education, and love.
Group Play Skills
Interactive group activities and positive reinforcement help dogs practice important skills like name recall, and behaviors like group sit and calmly going in and out of doors and gates. These activities are fun and rewarding for your dog and help improve behavior and impulse control, prevent overstimulation, and create a safer social environment.
Rest Period Enrichment
Your dog gets to relax and recharge in their own private space with calming interactive toys and healthy food pairings tailored to their preferences and diet. It promotes physical and mental relaxation which can help them achieve a healthy balance of play, learning, and rest. It can also help them become more comfortable in crates by building positive associations.
One-on-One Enrichment
Personalized One-on-One Enrichment sessions give your dog the extra attention they love and the freedom to use their senses and safely explore their instincts through interactive toys, puzzles, and games. It’s fun and rewarding and exercise their bodies and minds and engage their senses. Add complexity with fitness and agility equipment.
Canine Cab Shuttle Service
Our Canine Cab shuttle service offers safe and convenient pick-up and drop-off services to help you get your dog to and from their day at day care. Also, we can make deliveries for market purchases. This service can be scheduled as part of your package or arranged on an as-needed basis.
Please schedule in person or over the phone, at least 24 hours in advance.
FAQs about Enrichment Dog Day Care in Amarillo
Nope! We got you covered! Most dogs will not need any bedding for a single day of day care. If your dog is boarding with us, see our Sleepover Guidelines. As far as treats and toys, we have plenty! Please ask about which toy and treat products are available.
We are happy to accommodate your dog’s feeding schedule as part of their “Rest Period Enrichments.” Simply bring their food in pre-portioned containers with clear instructions. Our trained staff will ensure your dog receives their meal in a private, quiet space. We are also experienced in handling a variety of specific needs, including day care for dogs with allergies and medication administration, though additional fees may apply.
As part of joining the Central Bark® family, our expert staff conducts a thorough behavior assessment at your local Central Bark store. These assessments help ensure that your dog is placed with a playgroup they’re comfortable with so they can play safely every day they’re with us.
This four-day evaluation, while your dog participates in our Enrichment Day Care, assesses your dog’s:
- Comfort and social skills with people
- Social skills and playstyle with other dogs to help determine the playgroup and play schedule they can benefit from the most
- Comfort in both indoor and outdoor play spaces
- Comfort in rest areas and a crate
- Ability to share resources like water and toys in social settings
- Level of comfort taking treats in social settings
This process gives us a chance to get to know you and your dog while your dog gets acquainted with their new favorite place away from home. Through the entire four days, your dog’s comfort and safety is our top priority.
Once your pup passes all the behavior assessment elements, you are welcome to sign up for any of our daycare services or a sleepover!
To schedule a Behavior Assessment for your dog, please contact your local store.
NOTE: Please bring all required signed forms, vaccination proof, and a collar and leash for your behavior assessment.
