A Well-Balanced Day for Your Dog’s Health
Our Enrichment Dog Day Care provides a perfect mix of play, physical activity, socializing, education, relaxation, and tender care. We carefully customize each day to cater to your dog’s unique needs and desires, nurturing their physical, mental, and sensory well-being. Our ultimate goal is to give you a balanced, content, and joyful companion to cherish at home.
- Play, Exercise, and Socialization: Regular exercise is crucial for dogs to stay fit, maintain muscle tone, and enhance their mood by releasing pent-up energy. We offer various playgroups, both indoors and outdoors, catering to your dog’s age, personality, and comfort level.
- Rest: Like humans, dogs also need sufficient rest to recuperate after play and socializing. Our daily schedule prioritizes providing opportunities for dogs to rest and strike a balance between activity and relaxation.
- Learning: Dogs at our facility learn from both humans and other canines. With our trained staff’s guidance, dogs engage in positive training methods to encourage safe play and develop healthy social behaviors. Your dog benefits from interacting with others and honing valuable social skills while in our care.
- Love: During their stay, your dog becomes an integral part of our family, receiving the affection and attention they deserve in your absence. We aim to form a bond with your dog, ensuring they feel secure and content while with us.
Commitment to Safety
Ensuring the safety and well-being of all is our foremost concern. As fellow dog lovers, we comprehend the significance of treating each dog with the utmost care and affection, akin to our own. You can trust that we are entirely dedicated to safeguarding the health and safety of every visitor to our establishment.
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.
Frequently Asked Questions
Absolutely! We strongly encourage all prospective clients to see our facilities firsthand. We believe a tour is the best way to understand what to look for in a dog day care. You can schedule a visit to tour our complete indoor and outdoor play areas and private rest spaces. We want you to feel completely confident and comfortable with our secure environment. You can also explore our facility and get a feel for what a day at Central Bark looks like by viewing the photos and virtual tours on our website.
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.
Rest periods can be paired with fun and interactive food toys (like a frozen peanut butter Kong) to create a rest period enrichment activity for your dog.
Not only are rest period enrichments fun and mentally stimulating for your dog, but they also help build positive associations and crating skills. Hence, dogs are calmer, quieter, and more relaxed. For dogs, being comfortable in a crate is a life skill that is incredibly useful for them and their owners.
Did you know? Scientific studies have shown that licking and chewing behaviors (especially those that involve food rewards!) are self-soothing, decrease heart and respiratory rates, and even release dopamine in a dog’s brain.
Our top priority is the safety of every dog in our care. Our staff members are not only highly trained but also “fluent in dog speak,” which means they can read canine body language and behavior cues. Our rigorous dog day care safety protocols use a science-based positive reinforcement approach to constantly monitor and manage play. We believe in proactive and preventative care, working to de-escalate potential issues before they start, which is a key part of how dog day care handles disagreements and maintains a secure environment for all dogs.
