A Healthy Balanced Day

Enrichment Doggy Day Care is dedicated to providing a healthy balance of play, exercise, socialization, learning, rest, and tender loving care. Our team customizes each day to your dog’s specific needs and preferences to nurture their bodies, minds, and senses, resulting in a healthy, happy, calm, and well-rounded companion at home.

  • Play, Exercise, and Socialization: Exercise helps dogs stay fit, tones muscles, uplifts mood, and channels physical and mental energy. Positive experiences with new humans, dogs, and environments help create happy and well-socialized dogs. We offer playgroups for all sizes, indoors and outdoors, tailored to your dog’s age, personality, and comfort.
  • Rest: Rest, relaxation, and recharging are crucial for a dog’s physical, mental, and emotional well-being after playing and socializing. Our daily schedule aims to maintain a healthy balance of rest, play, and learning while preventing overstimulation.
  • Learning: Dogs learn from humans and other dogs, and our trained staff use positive training techniques to promote safe play and help your dog practice healthy social behaviors while at day care. Dogs also teach each other appropriate social behavior.
  • Love: Your dog will become a part of our family and receive all the love and attention they need while you’re away. We create a bond with your dog to help them feel comfortable and confident. With regular attendance, we learn your dog’s personality, needs, and preferences, allowing us to recognize any moods, behavioral changes, or health issues that might otherwise go unnoticed.

Commitment to Safety

Ensuring the safety and well-being of our guests is our topmost priority. As fellow dog parents, we understand the importance of treating every dog as a member of our own family. Therefore, we are dedicated to providing a secure and healthy atmosphere for all who visit our facility.

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.

It promotes physical and mental relaxation which can help them achieve a healthy balance of play, learning, and rest.

What is dog day care?

Dog day care gives dogs a fun place to play with their friends while their owners are busy at home and work.

At Central Bark®, doggy daycare is our specialty, and nobody does it quite like us. We don’t just give dogs a place to play. We create a personalized program of activities that optimize your dog’s whole health – their physical, mental, and emotional well-being. 

Central Bark goes beyond a traditional doggy day care with our unique Whole Dog Care philosophy. Our personalized approach helps enrich your dog’s whole health and well-being throughout their entire life so you can enjoy a healthy, happy, and loving life together.

The heart of our whole dog care approach is our Enrichment Doggy Day Care program. We combine Central Bark’s industry-leading doggy day care expertise with the latest dog behavior science. Our mission is to give dogs a balanced blend of exercise, social group play, learning, rest, and TLC. To help your dog be a healthy, happy, calm, and well-rounded member of your family.

What are Rest Period Enrichments?

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.

Is there enough outdoor space to accommodate all dogs on nice days and indoor space when the weather is poor?

Central Bark® has both indoor and outdoor play areas large enough that all dogs can be inside or outside at any given time. This helps us keep the dogs safe and comfortable at any time of year.
