A Healthy, Balanced Day
Enrichment Dog Day Care is designed to provide a holistic and customized experience that meets the unique needs and preferences of each dog. Our goal is to help you maintain a healthy, happy, calm, and well-rounded dog at home through play, exercise, socialization, learning, rest, and TLC.
Here’s how we achieve this:
- Play, Exercise, and Socialization: We offer small and large playgroups in indoor and outdoor areas, allowing your dog to enjoy the social environment that’s best for their age, personality, and comfort level. Exercise helps maintain a healthy weight and muscle tone, while socialization promotes positive experiences with new humans, dogs, and environments, leading to well-rounded and well-socialized dogs.
- Rest: Rest is crucial for your dog’s physical, mental, and emotional health. Our daily schedule ensures that dogs have opportunities to rest, relax, and recharge, avoiding unhealthy overstimulation and achieving the right balance of play, learning, and rest.
- Learning: Our highly trained staff uses positive training techniques to promote safe play and healthy social behaviors. Dogs learn from humans and other dogs, and our guidance ensures that they practice appropriate social behaviors.
- Love: We treat your dog like family and provide the love and attention they need while you’re away. Through regular attendance, we get to know your dog’s personality, needs, and preferences, allowing us to recognize any changes in behavior or health issues that might otherwise go unnoticed
Commitment to Safety
Ensuring the safety and well-being of our guests is our top priority. As fellow dog parents, we understand the importance of treating each dog with the same care and attention as our own. We are dedicated to maintaining a healthy and secure environment for all who come to our facility.
Central Bark 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.
I also really like the retail space here, and the services they offer. I’ve been able to get Ace’s nails trimmed here a few times before pickup which I really appreciate- and they’re the only ones who have been able to do it without him getting nervous!
I appreciate Central Bark Franklin and all that you guys do! Thank you Central Bark team!
Frequently Asked Questions
Our dog socialization day care is built on a unique system of “flexible playgroups” to ensure a safe and positive social environment for every dog. We carefully match your dog with friends based on their age, personality, size, and play style, creating a balanced and stress-free environment. This is especially beneficial for day care for dogs with anxiety or shy puppies, as it provides a low-pressure way for them to build confidence and have a great time.
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.
There’s no bond like the one between our furry best friends and us. We love our dogs and want to give them the best life possible. But it can be challenging to fulfill all their needs to stay healthy and happy for a lifetime. Doggy day care gives pups a place to play and learn in a safe environment, with the socialization, mental stimulation, and physical exercise their minds and bodies need to stay healthy for a lifetime.
- Dogs get to socialize. Dogs are social creatures. Positive experiences with new humans, new dogs, and new environments are essential to a well-rounded pup.
- Dogs learn social skills. Dogs learn from other dogs – they’re always teaching each other what is (and isn’t) appropriate social behavior. Doggy day care staff can also help support safe play and practice healthy social behaviors.
- Dogs get more exercise. Exercise helps your dog maintain a healthy weight and muscle tone while improving their mood and providing a healthy outlet for their physical and mental energy, meaning they can be more relaxed at home.
- Dogs get human attention. Your dog will get the care and love they need while you’re at work or school.
- Parents get a break. Doggy day care can give you a day off from responsibilities, while your dog gets what they need to be a healthier, more well-adjusted pet.
